70's Mike

BOOK in and under the needle next Saturday

still do not understand who runs this elite side ?

AGREED and dad would come as well

Most clubs park a bus

Because Parents/Kids have egos and think they are good enough to make it at the top level, I am afraid that very few actually look at it rationally

What I mean is who runs it ? If it is the Tyro league Rep sides then Academy coaches do watch them

What is the hampshire elite under 13 side ?

no yachts tied up at gravel yards yet , well at 6.30 when i drove past

so why did he not leave on a free when he was not in squad? all very strange

Sort of agree but find it strange why we put him in the squad if we have no intention of playing him

We did have but not convinced any more , teams like Chelsea and even the Skates are pumping lots of money into their set ups. Arsenal/Chelsea/Man City/ Man Utd and Middlesboro have set ups which make ours look poor.

To the original question NO It is the same the whole football world over, go in any pub pre a game talk to the home fans and there are always players not rated etc that you thought were ok

not many of the blue few from on here off to portugal then

he already posts on here

keep winning and they will be back the ones that complain about the missing fans are the same ones who tell me , the game has changed since the 70's and 80's , small clubs cannot compete anymore etc etc. What they do not grasp is that it has changed for spectators to. Kids do not go on their own anymore? very few use public transport taking a family 4 to a game , even in the CCC, costs between £50 and £100 depending on where you live and is a bigger proportion of a familys deposable income than it every has been.

On the dole more like he is already past retirement age

sums up my feelings only problem is we will never know if any new owner is a potential Wilde until it is to late.

But the last few seasons we were at the Dell the average was 15000 with 1500 away fans. We are actually hitting the same figure now.

never been convinced by him as a defender

not this week

do they count all season ticket holders whether they go or not ?

Just enjoyed it have decided to take one game at a time and form no opinions as to our strengths and weaknesses

not someone to get on the wrong side off

Close 1 nil Saints One good thing about low crowds is i do not have to leave home until 7pm

Reuben had a funny career really, one great season in a system that suited him but the rest ?
