Shaw Moaning...........again

Re: Shaw Moaning...........again

I can see where we're going with this.

We'll make Deepdale a "nice" place to come to watch matches. This will attract families etc. Then we'll have people complaining about inane half time entertainment, jonhnny come latelys, people with tired kids leaving early etc. etc. (e.g. I remember a thread after the playoff final titles something like "Part time fans let us down today". Amongst some people these new fans are just not welcome at Deepdale. And soon the novelty will wear off and crowds will stabilise.

The only thing that will encourage supporters to consistently come out to Deepdale is a consistently successful side. All this cack about the matchday experience etc. is cobblers.

Decent team = Decent crowds.

The priority on Derek's (or any other chairman's) time should be working with the technical staff to push the playing side of the club forward.

But it is a concern, a bloody major concern. Why else would the chairman say so this early in the campaign in the local rag???

Look around the 20 odd miles aroung PNE there are plenty of games for people to go to (and before you say it i am a season ticket holder on the Finney) for the same price.
 
Re: Shaw Moaning...........again

Shaw was not shouting the odds his interview was about how well Paul Simpson is doing ( and guess who pick him as our Manager). His comments were justified and why not. If i was Chairman i would have said the same. You my friend what to look at the bigger picture. Also are you saying unless everything is right for you you wont come on! shaw and others have worked the bollocks of to get us where we are so your comments are an insult to him and to us guys that have supported the club all this time. Preston deserve better crowds; we have a great stadium housing the National Football Museum, we are a strong champioship team with one of the lowest prices to get in, we see big teams coming to our place nearly every week and we maintain a strong playing squad. Yet you want him to lower the prices and also you want him to leave!!!!!!!!! Your talking out of your arse mate and thank god we don't have muppets like you running this Club.
 
Re: Shaw Moaning...........again

Well i am a season ticket holder so would love to see Deepdale full every week, but as you said that if YOU were chairman you would say the same??? yeah right, the problem with you surf is that you think that your MR.PNE, just because Shaw throws you a few crumbs every now and again for you internet team, you think you need to defend him at every given chance.

Oh by the way dont bother inviting me to talk to you in person at Deepdale, cant do with computer bullies 😉

Yes of course but there are ways & means, surely if the arguement was put across in a constructive manner people wouldn't be so quick to go for the jugular 😕 🙄

Come back to me son when you have hair on your chest

I am just interested in your point of view where you say you are fed up with the way the club is run, at a time when the club is consistently playing at the highest level it has been at since the mid 60's.

I just suppose that even if the club were in the Premiership, there will be some complaining that they weren't in Europe. All opinions I know, but I know that this is a very good time for North End compared to the last 40 years.

Agreed, but slagging the attendances off just a few games into the season isnt IMO the way to go.

I say that it his responsibility to raise the issue of low attendances, and to call for more people to attend. If he didn't, then I would say he his not doing his job properly.

If he didn't. Who does?

Oh well. Welcome to the forum.

I suppose (for me) that i was upset when Grey left, i went through the trauma of Woodhouse & Leeming for years, then Baxi came in. Wonderful times, it just seems (again, to me) that we have taken a slight step back.

Thanks for the welcome 🙂

I'm interested to know how to read without signing up and logging in. Everytime i've tried it in an internet cafe I find i have to sign in. The system won't allow me to without.

How's it done?
 
Re: Shaw Moaning...........again

What would lowering the ticket prices achieve?

Not a great deal in terms of attendance (North End are already one of the cheapest Championship clubs to go and watch).

It would also mean less money into the coffers, meaning even less likelihood of being able to compete at this level (which we still do, somehow, thanks to the Chairman and manager).

Ultimately, it matters not a jot what North End do - they could go out and sign Ronaldinho, storm the league, beating everyone in sight and deliver every domestic trophy in the land - and you'd still have whinging, whining, moaning tossers like meddows posting shite on internet discussion forums.

Just the way it goes unfortunately - they are the sames goons who will be lording it up when we win something, claiming to be North End's biggest ever fan.
