Re: Back on Track
so what's the answer then?
numerous people just want to moan.
numerous people just want to be positive.
numerous people don't give a hoot one way or the other.
numerous people don't post anymore because it is just moan, moan, moan.
If you wanna moan then do it, if you don't like the moaners then don't join in and help to expand the thread, if you don't post because AW is crap nowadays then you need to join back in and create some of the threads that you'd rather see - block the people whose posts you don't want.
If the more positive people, or more generally talkative people stay away then all we are left with is the moaning. There is nowhere else to go to chat Stanley - this is the forum. The OSC site is not used for anything other than OSC stuff, the Ultras site is used by three or four people a couple of times a week, Vital is used by tosspot numpties who support other teams. Where do you wanna chat? do you wanna filter the neg vibes out?
As a body of fans we need to try to create the better vibe where possible and if it can't be done here then find other media with which to do it. Not enough people can be arsed though so we all end up talking tripe on here day after day. One of the more positive things that has happened recently is the OSC exhibition, but how many of you have offered your services with collecting stories or memorabilia? how many have offered their own stories? how many have offered memorabilia? how many of you turned up for the launch? Not bloody many is how many. How many will moan that it is not as good as expected?
We were offered a column in the telegraph (fans forum thingy) but about four people volunteered to offer up to 50 words a week.
The Observer would gladly give us a letter to the Sports Editor page - if enough people could be arsed to write a letter.
Radio Lancs has a weekly fans panel and offers listeners the chance to ring or text in, but because nobody does they have to ring one of us (3 maybe 4 on a rota) to get any sort of view.
Lets everybody get off their high horses and start writing letters.
...or can you not be arsed?
