    Nope. Read slower.

    I was happy with the owners until the concessions removal. The majority of our fans still don't give a rats ass one way or the other, unless it impacted them negatively.

    Deny it all you like but a majority were not against the name change. The majority weren't arsed about the Airco either. They weren't for or against either, they just simply do not care or think about them. It was definitely only a minority who were upset about being called hooligans and cried after being told they could die when they wanted to.

    Even now, the majority do not care one way or the other about any of the ****e around the club, they just want to go watch football every week. That's a fact.

    Don't confuse reading a few angry online posts with representing the majority of our fans, because if you do, you've lost it, pal.

    Laugh all you want.

    I'm meaning against = more than just standing in a pub moaning, or posting online "yeah, not keen on the name change".

    Actively against it, because it mattered that much to them they did something about it.

    Claiming the majority were against it is laughable and you know it. The largest section of our supporters are *not bothered about owt, unless it directly impacts me financially". They are happily nothing. Not against, not with, not vocal, they take the meaning of neutral about something to new lengths. You're a passionate bloke, you favour direct action, so I get why you don't understand them.

    Even you and your at the time campaign to recruit as many as you could, didn't even make them look at you. It's not that they don't care, one way or the other, it really doesn't register with them at all as worthy of concern. Unless it costs them.

    Strange how since the membership scheme, happily, the Trusts membership has risen, yet in the depths of despair and turmoil at the club, a small fraction were interested. Wonder if it's owt to do with the financial impact on families or just because Grettons ****ed off?

    My father in law who had close business connections with AA told me his is a crook and a mad man on the day they saved the club ,

    I was happy with their involvement and for me I didn't lose faith in their work at the club until part way into the first round of name change balls.

    Seems given time these nut jobs will revert to their default settings

    I once used one of those. I can't remember who it was but someone was once disgraced by one of my posts he 'neg repped' r and made a big deal about it as if he'd ruined my life. So I built up some rep and took his green bars away, and earned a satisfying trophy in the guise of some very angry PM's.

    You have to wonder about some people.

    CTWD's membership was far higher than HCST, it's much easier to motivate people to join a campaign group.

    Why is this minority/majority thing such a massive talking point for people of a certain mindset?

    There was someone on Sportstalk the other night going on about it for ages, insisting that it's just a minority who are unhappy etc etc.

    Is it because Assem said it once?

    I don't get it.
