Who hasn’t been to a game in years? Maybe a few on here, but not that ‘many’ as you make out.

[Deereyme66]

Lol, that’s rich coming from you awaywego. And I doubt anyone’s going to feel ashamed because you say they should. Bit like how they take no notice of you when you ask them to leave in protest and then ridicule any suggestions for future protests. You have little influence I’m afraid.

Careful now, UTI99’s getting close to a Swiss Tony analogy: ‘selling a football club is like making love to a beautiful woman…’

‘In what world do you think not paying your money will help the CLUB/TEAM?’

In what world have you heard and read this from supporters UTI99?

[Deereyme66]

What year was Iron Youth formed? Do you get a membership card or gold stars for hitting opposition fans?

Barton, maybe you can explain how starving the club of finances will help it? I’m yet to hear one.

I think you’ll find it was Brottoniron. Check your facts, ‘do your research’ etc. And less of the hyperbole please. The fans aren’t the ones ‘starving’ the club of finances, and I haven’t seen one comment about not attending helping the club. People are attending less because they’ve had enough, they don’t think for a second that it will help the club.

You gaslight supporters, call them idiots and morons and then come out with a completely inappropriate analogy. Yeah, right!

Doesn’t alter my opinion. It’s a company limited by guarantee isn’t it? Is every opinion that doesn’t reflect your own, idiotic, nonsense, ridiculous? In your world it appears so.

Yes, seriously UTI99. He should gift some of his wealth to make the team worthy of watching, start attracting fans back and make the club a more attractive proposition for potential buyers. Isn’t that what an astute businessman would do?

‘I’m a multi-millionaire. I’m not prepared to invest some of my wealth for a competetive player budget for the club I have taken out of the league. No, I expect the long suffering supporters facing staggering costs of living to prop it up.’

Can you see how problematic that premise is UTI99?

Should have added, ‘but he should, to make up for his failings. Or sell up ASAP. In the meantime, stop blaming the fans’

[Deereyme66]

I wouldn’t borrow any more money to fund my absolute disaster of a business, no.

[Deereyme66]

Yeah, but we got the family excellence award didn’t we [hiccup]?

[Deereyme66]

Make your mind up. One minute you’re saying this:

‘As a fan I’m allowed an opinion no matter how controversial.’

The next, our opinions make us ‘idiots’.

This thread has been one epic fail. Must try harder.

‘he is right in what he says about attending and funding the team it really is down to you.’

No, it’s down to Swann. End of. An owner who knew what he was doing would be investing for the future but we’ve seen how well that went before haven’t we, so now it’s ‘blame the fans’ time yet again. You’re just feeding the BS as far as I can tell awaywego.

[Deereyme66]

‘both now on the fringes of iron youth’

Lol, does ‘Iron Youth’ have a constitution? What a strange way of viewing your grandkids.

[Deereyme66]

Crikey, someone (UTI99) is sounding pretty desperate today. Job on the line is It? Here’s a tip, don’t call stay away fans ‘thick as…’ and expect them to return. Not ‘rocket science’ is it?

[Deereyme66]

Have you still got that Stone Island jacket awaywego?

[Deereyme66]

Jobsworth and awaywego going to a match together?? Now that’s something I couldn’t have imagined reading.

[Deereyme66]

Putin has plenty of useful idiots globally, both on the left and the right (ahem). Who are you suggesting is the provocateur here? Peter or UTI99? Or both?

[Deereyme66]

Great to know that the future generation of Iron support is rooted in the school of awaywego 😆

Personally I hate the frantic moving from side to side and arm waving but it’s not against the rules is it?

Not sure what you expect the officials to clamp down on if there are no rules broken Bobby? Something in the rules about it would be the only way. Not sure anybody wants that?

[Deereyme66]

I’m glad that thug that assaulted Sharp got a 2 year sentence. I don’t want violent t***’s like that at football or elsewhere. Couldn’t give a toss if he was under the influence of whatever, or has other issues. Absolutely no excuse for it and hopefully a tough sentence might just deter similar incidents in future.

Not getting in to religion and politics about this on here JI. Though I found it amusing that you say this isn’t the place for it either, then proceed to an essay introduction!
