You make a valid point regarding the Premier League teams.

However, you've lost me on the part I've quoted. I'm not sure any of our problems can be pin-pointed to any minority of fans who have given any sort of trouble to the club or to certain people. Main problems are beyond a few fans or the 'banned from Meadow Lane club'. Only time will tell if @ivansneck's rumours have merit, yet I'm not overly worried - I would be a fool if I said I wasn't concerned.

I was making more of a general observation as opposed to a direct response to your post.

My point re the fans is that lets be honest the situation would be different had the people who abused the Trews acted with more civility. I in no way agree with everything they have done but the sickening abuse they have had to withstand is wrong on any and every level.

Put another way would you keep communicating with a group of people who have directed the most abhorent and vile abuse going to your family? I would certainly think twice.

The way i see it is that they have up until now tried to respond to what the fans have wanted and then been pilloried once they have done, the perfect example of this is the sacking of Keith Curle.

The majority of fans don't abuse them , simply want answeres to genuine concerns , they could and should do that through the proper channels .

It makes you wonder why exactly they attempted to win over a certain place considering all the hassle and all the abuse they got there.

But it's a minority and very small amount at that.

Yet season after season it's 'the fans' fault and not the minority. I don't condone abuse, though it's issued out like no tomorrow - even from people who are supposedly defending others.

It does make you wonder doesn't it.

Do you not think that like everything nowadays its always everyones fault not just the few that cause issues?

 

And as you know we both have the same feelings regarding abuse.

The fact that he decided to attack the media rather than address this speaks volumes.

This is a common occurrence though isn't it? Blame the media, blame the fans, blames the tax man, blame anyone else but himself. 

Could not agree more @Super_Danny_Allsopp , only just come on-line , searching for any news today , guess nothing said anywhere positive from club or owners ?? 

It's attack anyone who has questions or has doubts. I find it very odd bans was issued to people that probably caused trouble last season and at a point someone was supposedly about to take over (zimmer frame to the finish line).

Scaremongers are out in force on Facebook and Twitter, but let's hope this bill has been settled.

Really hope so @BromPie , we just need to know what's going on .
