The refusal to sell a season ticket at Southampton FC
hypochondriac replied to lenwilkins's topic in The Saints
It wasn't the odd nutter it was a significant amount on here. You are trying to rewrite history now.some of the people who were praising those silly decisions are the ones now calling ni a tw*t and that this silly decision by the club not to give an explanation should be applauded. -
Why does that matter? I A good speech is a good speech and I think it shows an interesting way forward.

I would argue that the extremism which causes people to blow themselves up is the most concerning form. It was an encouraging speech and nice to know the country can question these things without being accused of racism.

No they weren't! With the photographer thing especially we were told by many on here what a good business decision it was and how it was revolutionary. You have a very selective memory. -

Insightfully telling us the page number. Well done. -
When I decide whether I like a song or not, one of the first things I look at is lyrics. It says a lot about whether someone has actually bothered to write a song with meaning or if they have just thrown it together for money. Obviously all words can have a place in songs but using the F word IMO in general display a lack of imagination.

Firstly that isn't what he did. He contacted the club in private more than once in private and received no reply. Following that presumably he told some mates who then told some people on the forums and he only made a comment once people were asking him online whether it was true. He wasn't seeking media exposure to my knowledge. Also you have to remember that buying on a match by match basis is a lot more expensive so it inconveniences him in more ways than one. I don't think that the fact it is legal makes much of a difference, and I don't think whether he sought media exposure or not is relevant. I just think he deserves an explanation. -

Because (as I said in the original quote) "others were talking about Nick as if him being a tw*t in their eyes means that he is not entitled to an explanation whereas in my eyes you are entitled to one no matter who you are." I was discussing where NC could improve in general as a separate comment unrelated to the Nick season ticket issue whereas others were airing their problems about Nick and suggesting that because of them he was not entitled to an opinion whereas really his merits as fan are totally irrelevant when discussing his entitlement to an opinion. -

I see invaluable comments continue to be added by posters in order to debate the issues at hand. -

The only reason this came to light in the first place was because there were rumours posted on here and TUI (presumably Nick had told a few mates who had posted something on the messageboards and Stu was the person who told me.) As far as I'm aware Nick did not go running to the media (though happy to admit I do not know that as fact.) -

I was replying to a post about him in this thread but I was referring to the wider issue of fan communication rather than the specific Nick issue which has nothing to do with NC really. Topics as long as this do have a tendency to go off topic a bit and that was one example. I never discussed the merits of NC in relation to the club withholding Nick's ticket and I never used this issue as an excuse to have a pop at NC like Marco is suggesting. -

I actually think it is amazing that people can argue this point. It amazes me seriously. -

This thread has nothing to do with Cortese, it's to do with Nick as a fan being entitled to a reply and the club being in breach of its club charter. -

And I have no problem with him being denied a season ticket if it was for a valid reason. He is still entitled to an explanation though, denying him one is surely wrong. -

I find it highly unlikely he would take as far as he has with no explanation. What on earth would he have to gain? -

To my knowledge the only posts I have made about Cortese on this thread are in reply to saint clark who was making a statement specifically about Cortese which I replied to (feel free to point out other examples if you believe that not to be the case and I will apologise.) I accept that was slightly off topic but others were talk about Nick as if him being a tw*t in their eyes means that he is not entitled to an explanation whereas in my eyes you are entitled to one no matter who you are. That clear enough pal? Edit: Just realised I also mentioned Cortese in my response to franks cousin but again that was a reply to his bit about the wider issue of fans criticising the cub and not the particular issue of Nick being denied a season ticket and an explanation which is where his merits as a fan are irrelevant. -

Again, as far as I understand this issue has nothing to do with Nick at all. I'm not even sure why his merits as a fan are being debated. If the club makes a decision which deprives a fan of a season ticket then that fan should get an explanation. IMO that is the only issue here.
