Toton to Stuttgart and then to merseyside in the next 24 hours is pushing it, but thanks for the offer and, one day, it will be done.

Unfortunately I agree with a lot of what’s being said here
Before Christmas I believed that the club was committed to working within PSR, that fan engagement and economic ticket pricing was a key priority, and that the CG would be redeveloped before long.
I don’t believe any of these things now, but I’d be delighted to be wrong.

The layered approach to riling fans this season (Coops sacking, lying about and breeching PSR/FFP etc.) seems to have really layed a foundation of anger which isn't going to go away anytime soon.
I genuinely don't know what the answer is. I think the club will continue on their stubborn path, and that won't end well. Hope I'm wrong.
Well I do also have a bottle of John Jameson, and a bottle of Vodka Gorbatschow as well, plus of course the usual fridge of bier, and there is a REWE just down the road, so a supply-trip could be organised if we start running low!

I'd do it but Parker is not as quick as he used to be.
One day mate. The Jameson is a big plus, as is your local bier.

I don’t know if Tom is a genuine fan or not. He’s probably late 40’s early 50’s so 20 years ago was he hawking around league one grounds? Religiously attending every home game getting beaten by Southend or Scunthorpe or held by Chesterfield?
Not knocking him for being successful and having a bit of money but people like him and the circles they mix in often don’t have to consider doing things like having a season ticket. So as his kids got older buying a season ticket for the whole family wouldn’t have been a major investment and drain. They go on holidays and don’t have to do things on the cheap, they’ll all pile in to a services for a break and not think of all having a drink and snack from Starbucks as an afterthought and spewing £40 on it. They’ll eat out on holiday, do expensive activities, stay in nice accommodation. If they want stuff they pay for it and get it. We’ve all seen these types in day to day life.
I don’t have a problem with this, well done to him and he can give his family a good life and experiences some people won’t get. The COO will be in the same boat and unfortunately when people like this are involved in business they are there to screw money out of anyone and if there are people who can pay they get it and there is a finite amount of the product they definitely will.
These people have now taken over football. When the product isn’t sought after they rely on the loyalty, they see us as idiots who churn out our time and money year after year no matter what. When the demand is high they will try and sell it to those who can afford it because that is what they know. They can afford it and they can’t identify with people who can’t, not properly.
Loyalty doesn’t matter. As I said before they will drop people like a stone. They have done it already with the away tickets, people who have gone religiously for years when the team was shit can’t take their kids or go themselves. Some of it is unavoidable to an extent but not all of it.
If we do go down it will be interesting to see how quickly the 11000 ST waiting list, the 800 club, the 5000 away monopoly and the 25000 members all start to unravel.

I’m looking forward to going to away games again but part of me is thinking the club don’t deserve my support for locking me out.

My guess, and I appreciate I’m pissing in the wind, is that the kids got in to it as football is big and fashionable nowadays so they just bought a few season tickets and if they have nothing on or aren’t going away they go. If you look at Brighton as a club they are built on that type of supporter.
Yeah, there might be something in this!
Also, John Le Mesurier, what an absolute legend.

One of my favourite quotes of all time is “I never saw John drunk, but I never saw John without a drink”. Legend
Yeah, I have heard that one, he was an absolute lad.One of my favourite quotes of all time is “I never saw John drunk, but I never saw John without a drink”. Legend
Notable also, he wrote his own obituary before he died, and it started „John Le Mesurier conked out…“

It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
Hit it!
I wanna rock right now
I am Wes and I came to get down
I'm not internationally known
But I'm known to rock the microphone
Because I get stoopid, I mean outrageous
Stay away from me if you're contagious
'Cause I'm the winner, no, I'm not the loser
To be an M.C. is what I choose 'a
Ladies love me, girls adore me
I mean even the ones who never saw me
Like the way that I rhyme at a show
The reason why, man, I don't know
So let's go, 'cause
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
Hit it!
My name is Wes, I gotta real funky concept
Listen up, 'cause I'm gonna keep you in step
I got an idea
That I wanna share
You don't like it? So what, I don't care
I'm number one, the uno, I like comp
Bring all the suckers 'cause all them I'll stomp
Bold and black but I won't protect
All of my followers 'cause all I want is respect
I'm not a doctor, put them in rapture
A slick brother that can easy outfox ya
Cause I'm Wes, last name Organ, yeah
And on the mike, I'm known to be the freshest
So let's start, it shouldn't be too hard
I'm not a sucker so I don't need a bodyguard
I won't fess, wear a bulletproof vest
Don't smoke buddha, can't stand sess, yes
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
Hit it!
The situation that the Wes is in
I'm kinda stingy that's why I don't wanna lend
A funky rhyme to a foe or a good friend
But listen up 'cause I want you to comprehend
'Cause I'm the leader, the man superior
I take care of ya and then ya get wearier
So just sit, my rhymes arenot counterfeit
The record sells which makes this one a hit
It won't hurt to listen to Red Alert
Take off your shirt
Make sure it don't hit the dirt
I like the kids--the guys, the girls
I want the ducats 'cause it's Wes Organ's world
I'm on a mission, ya better just listen
To my rhymes 'cause I'm all about dissin'
'Cause
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
Hit it!
I stand alone, don't need anyone
'Cause I'm Wes, just came ot have fun
Don't need friends that act like foes
'Cause I'm Wes' Organ, the one who knows
About things that make ya get weary
Don't cheer me, just hear me
Out 'cause I got the clout--shout (Ho!)
Before I turn the party out
I won't stutter-- Project my voice, speak clearly
So you can be my choice
On stage or on record
Go to the Wiz and select it
Take it off the rack, if it's wack put it back
I like the Whopper, f*** the Big Mac
If you want static, so let's go
So, throw upyour hands
Go for what you know
Bro', I got an ego
Yo, talkin' to me? No
Oh
'Cause Wes is in the front, EZ Rock is on the Back up
We're not soft, soyou better just slack up
'Cause I'm cool, calm just like a breeze
Rock the mike with the help of EZ
Rock on the set, the music plays
Only cuts the records that I say
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
Hit it!
All right, now, EZ Rock
Now, when I count to three
I want you to get busy
You ready now?
One, two, three, get loose now!
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
Hit it!
Interesting JLM facts.
1. Voiced Bod; pal Arthur Lowe voiced the Mr Men around about the same time.
2. Fell hopelessly in love with and married Hattie Jacques who cheated on him some years later. I'm not normally one to make comparisons but I think she was punching above which made the affair all the more remarkable.
3. Was the original Captain Mainwaring.
