Weston Super Saint

I think it just sealed our fate didn't it? This was the 'must win' match that decided whether or not we went into administration to take the points deduction this season. We aren't playing the game so you just know the ruddy cheek one will put the obvious decision off for even longer, so the inevitable will happen and we'll get the point deduction next season and most likely start the season at the bottom of division 3 with minus 15 points. Let the good times roll

Fans fault again. FFS we really are the worst fans in the world ™.

Unless he is working for free - he isn't!! - then he is 'lining' his pockets....

Well, we really would have a demand and supply situation then! If people feel the forum is worth saving, then they would donate. If they don't think it is worth it, then they won't, simple really. And I don't think the adverts being more in your face will drive people to pay £5, but I do think it will convince them not to come back

Well, we're not all privvy to the figures for donations and memberships and running costs etc etc, so if you'd be so kind as to lay them all out for us, then we can formulate our own opinions

But that's the point isn't it? The forum appears to be a bit of a damp squib at the moment, and IMHO that is because of the divide between members and non members, and the restricted posts and lack of thread starting ability by non members. If the membership were offered as a donation - with no limit [upper or lower] - I suspect the same amount of money would still be raised, and we would have no need for this divide in members. [yes I did voice the exact same opinion when the subscriptions were first mentioned]....

Which is what prompted the thread in the fist place! Oh well, at least I've got an answer to 'Is TSW a dead man walking?', as I think with the reluctance to even acknowledge that there might be a problem looming, I guess the chances of putting any measures in place to head the problem off are quite slim!

August IIRC.

I beg to differ. We already know that there are only a few hundred full members, and that a lot of people MUST therefore have voted with their feet. This site no longer commands membership figures in the couple of thousands, which is a shame.

An acknowledgement of the suggestions would be a start

He has a point though. A number of suggestions have been raised, but they seem to have all been dismissed out of hand. So much for the customer is always right eh?

I hope my nurse wipes my incontinent arse with some nice soft paper, replaces the batteries in my hearing aid, and hands me the electronic copy of the newspaper from 2050, the one with the extra large letters so my elderly eyes can read it

The long winter nights must just fly : roll :

Surely you mean EX Husbands Unless of course you're a bigamist...

Now, I'm not saying Hollywood has ever been right.... http://www.amazon.co.uk/Two-Weeks-Notice-Sandra-Bullock/dp/B000087JID

No. The notice doesn't belong to the three weeks, the notice belongs to the person. The three weeks is the length of time with weeks being the plural of week.

There....

Racist.

Interfering busy bodies.

But it would have to be a bit more serious than calling someone a c8nt! Besides, as soon as you get the disciplinary invite letter the normal procedure is to go off sick with stress isn't it, then keep renewing the old Doctor's note until the resignation period is up - so while it is Legally possible to be fired when 'working your notice', practically it very rarely happens....

I didn't think you could be fired when 'working out your notice'...

Do you work as a Greengrocer, and is that why you have the extra apostrophe?

But administration is easier, which was the plan all along I believe

They should be forced to sit by the windows :shock:

I disagree. Look at yesterday, there were no posts until nearly half time...
