I think we are better than 2 years ago (1 year ago at least) and in with a chance to win trophies. Man city weren't miles better 6 months after their takeover...
I think that is the issue and could be an problem. Having said that I found Cortese to be personally very receptive to what I had to say and I think he dealt with issues really well at the last fans forum. I would like him to stay. Maybe at the next fans forum if this is still going on then someone could ask Cortese about it.
I agree that Cortese should talk to the Echo if the Echo are prepared to try and resolve things. The current Echo reporting is a separate issue though. Writing childish articles and having sideways digs at the club is not on IMO. How exactly is that going to help matters? It's only going to make things worse and the Echo will lose out in the long term.
I agree with you actually. We need real quality in other key positions (not saying we have to spend big to get this but we have some obvious weaknesses.)
Yawn. Bored of continuously having to state that no one is writing off players. Pardew himself has stated that Otsemebor is a gamble. I just wondered if it was a gamble we had to take considering there was money available to bring in proven quality.
If you visit truebluearmy you will see that many many skates DO care about attendance. It's clear for all to see that we are the better supported club. Do you really think if the situations were reversed that we would be getting attendances as low as yours? Pathetic support. You should be ashamed and you should care because you should want to do something about it.
And even if he is it's still a gamble. If we were truly going all out for promotion this season then I would have thought we would have brought someone in who is proven quality. Same with midfield (though this may still happen.)
