    Micks comments about the current situation and us fans that dont go to every game.

    The ones that don’t come to games and write nonsense on sites and call phone-ins, I’ve no interest in them at all.

    I and others may not go to games you ****ing arrogant prick but i still pay for commentary every month!!

    Mick out!

    Thought you'd pick up on that Spanish.
    As soon as I read it I knew that loads of fans would pick holes in his statement.
    He certainly won't be tempting people who don't go at the minute to suddenly start turning up at PR. Idiotic things keep falling out of his mouth at the moment and he's not making it easy for himself.

    As a season ticket holder who contributes towards his salary am I allowed to express an opinion or doesn't he give a flying fig about my opinion either?

    I disagree with the both of you, and actually agree with MM on this one - even though it was taken out of context. What right do people who don't support our club (in the true sense of paying for tickets, merchandise, subscription services, etc) have of telling MM what to do, complaining about the "entertainment", and how to run the team? - yes, we all have our opinions, but MM is right to ignore a lot of them.
    I don't go to may games at all these days, which is why I have been less critical of our style of play. I agree, it would be a different matter if I was a season ticket holder, paid for travel week in week out, only to be served the dross we are currently being served.

    For me, at the moment, I'm only interested in the results. I don't watch any games (legally) so I don't care if we win by a 94th minute own goal, penalty or 5-0 every week (would be nice though)

    I totally accept there are plenty on here who pay a small fortune to follow our club, and it's those that have a right to moan, complain, and throw verbals at the team/management when things aren't going as smoothly as we'd like, and when MM is being his usual stubborn self.

    I also agree though, that sometimes he needs to keep quiet and keep his thoughts privately. Those comments, although I agree with in principal, can ruffle a few feathers and maybe start to alienate some fans.

    The way I read it is MM is saying if you don't go to games how can you have enough information to make an informed argument and phone in.............


    ..although I get the feeling that MM could donate his wages to charity and he would be criticised by some ...<laugh>

    Anyway I'm now off to the game if it's a **** game I might throw my brothers season ticket at SuperMick.....<cheers>

    Yeah I'm with Weighty and Strechyboy (to a degree) on this. True it's easy for things to be taken out of context. I'm sure he wouldn't give a **** about my opinion and why should he? I don't go to many games and am not there day in day out to be able to make any informed criticisms.

    I'm sure he doesn't have contempt for fans that don't make it to the games, but you have to admit, everyone's the ******' expert!

    He could find the cure to aids and bring world peace and he'd still be an absolute bellend in some peoples eyes.

    Adrian Durham was moaning about Pulis at WBA the other day on the radio saying WBA don't deserve that and deserve better. They are a struggling champ club as far as I'm concerned punching big time. Pulis / McCarthy + Alladyce will never win the respect / be liked by many even though it's a results business firstly and style of play secondly. The way the West Ham fans treated big Sam was beyond a disgrace.
