Macca & Lindsay - spot on its really peed me off too really taking the preverbial now, front page of dross other than the fact a numpty aint gonna buy it but least we know where the joke originated now.
Many asfc fans on here support the club as best they can, speaking from the OSC point of view have been tirelessly trying to promote the club to the people, even successfully getting a grant to do just that!! We had 3 schools to the club last week enjoying their tour getting to know the club historically & present day aiming to tackle the much needed youth support - a real positive response from the schools whom came, there is the Exhibition happening this year - ALL ABOUT ACCRINGTON STANLEY this summer hopefully getting the towns interest & good press. Also the interest of overseas support & connections, the crowd performances & flags by the Ultras getting great attention again promoting the club. The many fans that came out on a freezing saturday morning to shift snow off the pitch so the match could go ahead, the many that painted the stands or volunteered their time to help the club & offered again in the summer.
So what do the club do in its appreciation & promotion of itself ............................ fluff it all up big time - for what ?? Free publicity ?? what about the season ticket offers - what about the schools that visited - what about ASFC integrating with the town - even Hartford coming didnt get the shine - what about the ground improvements coming - what about our objective for next season?? oh no thats jokenly gone to LSU - a made up prank thats what got the coverage!! The club have not handled it properly nor professionally, now is losing trust within it coop of fans nevermind the floating/new fans simply undermining & insulting the ones they have & the town they live in. The press have covered the fact that the desicion could 'effect' from next season - oh what a good one for getting season tickets sold - with even the thought of the prospect or even suggestion - joke or not its still not the point !! Still no reassurance or resonable response from club - shameful.
'Boy who cried wolf' story springs to mind
I support ASFC not LSU!!.............whats the point - may as well not bother as support isnt valued as much as i thought
