July 27Jul 27 Author 3 minutes ago, Big Gun said:NO. That says more about the supporter base than the club. Shocking post.It may be the only way to send a message to the club that this mismanagement and poor performances should not be tolerated. I know it’s extreme, but it’s worth considering how not many will show up anyway.
July 27Jul 27 I'm going next week. I decided a couple of weeks ago I'm not going to r24. That's my boycott
July 27Jul 27 The trouble is, when you start these things there is no controlling which way the wrecking ball swings.You can lose Dean Bailey and keep Cameron Schwab, for example.
July 27Jul 27 Author Just now, lorn said:Shouldn't we support the club through thick and thin?I know we should, and we have. But I’m conflicted, and its my opinion it’s ridiculous how this poor management and performance has kept getting worse and being not dealt with. I’ll still be watching on TV but I can’t put myself through another game there for now

July 27Jul 27 The problem is defining what the ‘club’ actually is. No-one is saying you abandon your association with the Demons.But we are dealing with a situation where a self-serving board of insiders can’t even establish decision making leadership (they are all interim) and the senior coach is beyond redemption but no-one with authority will deal with that.Meanwhile, the membership diminishes and our credibility for future trades diminishes.That is why I am staying home again next week. We are being scammed by a few self-interested individuals that have ‘taken over’ our club who won’t take responsibility for the train wreck they have created.
July 27Jul 27 so, what are you suggesting, the 17 people who usually turn up, don't, would the players even notice??

It’s not a temper tantrum I’m giving up on my team, I’m rusted on to the Dees. I’m boycotting because I care about my team, to make necessary changes that should have already been made.

July 27Jul 27 LOL! As if any [censored] who throw a little boycott tantrum would have turned up anyway.You can pretend you would have, but let's be real.We know.

I was genuinely going to go next week, as the game doesn’t fall during my work hours for once. I’m not knocking on anyone that does go, I just don’t want my team to bottom out and become a basket case again for years.

July 27Jul 27 I really don't care anymoreHave no faith that anyone at club can turn it around.Anyone who disagrees, would love to see evidence
July 27Jul 27 I’ll be there! What’s the point of not going? I’ve already paid for my Trident membership, and I’m interested to watch from level 2 at Marvel.I was disappointed today, hugely, but is it more disappointing than the second semi in ‘23, or the Prelim in ‘87? If I can survive those I can survive anything.

If nothing is done to fix this (no matter who has to go) then you would be looking at 6 years in the wilderness. Losing most of our talented young guns in a couple of years.
July 27Jul 27 Tripe served cold ,but only for the entire season!The club set up a 0/5 start and is finishing with this sort of tripe.Get real. The
