    He's bored Joe or rather was when he joined. He had to beat a hasty exit from ATD because of his Mod room attack. However, he can't just go quiet for a while whilst the smoke dies down. What he has to do is pick on a small site to look good to his buddies. Such a laugh. Now he is welcome back with the rest of the wan kers over there he just carries on here because he thinks it's a bit of sport. He actually believes he upsets people by his presence. Now personally I couldn't really care less if he posts idiot stuff or not. His mates however probably think he is cool in a sort of Beavis and Butthead way. Their own site is rather dull and dying at the minute so any kind of crap thrown elsewhere is welcome. Pathetic hardly describes some of their members on there. He will tire of it all eventually. Actually "members" probably describes most of them quite well.

    What he didn't beg or you didn't send him the score sheets? I'm guessing he begged but is still score sheet deficient...

    He isn't that odd ball Joe he is another odd ball. A typical internet warrior. He criticises anything and everything others try to do regarding the club. Fight the Brent plans and give up a lot of time and effort in the cause. However, apart from the criticising does absolutely nothing himself, along with all the other critics, to fight anything. Just sits in his darkened room salivating over his keyboard and pretending he is leading a charge. That's almost compulsory over on the dark side. Then his mum shouts him for his tea.....

    WOW such a shame we could not provide the op with any helpful info.

    I think the introduction of BT Sport for free and during week nights having champions league on ITV have probably had a hand in declining fan numbers. Some citys/towns have a large premier league fanbase and a lot of those people will not look to support their teams unless they are up there.

    I would say that from a match day perspective as long as the food and drink are available the only other thing you need is a good performance from your team on the pitch.

    Thing is our fanbase held up pretty well and still is considering what happened to us. We were never going to get 12 to 14000 once we hit the skids but over 6000 consistantly is hardly declining in this league. Getting stuff on a little box is the modern way so TV wall to wall coverage of football will and is taking a toll on attendances. Was always going to happen.

    Certainly agree. It is a shame though. Still it is nice that some of our games will be on SKY this season. Bit of dosh.

    It's nice for the absent fans who CAN'T get there but discouraging for the ones who could but chose not to because it's on the tele. I would never stay home for a home match for example no matter where it was being broadcast. I would always be there because you can't swap the atmosphere. I don't have a lot of time for the tele people or indeed the football ones who sold their souls to them.
