Flyover Confirmation & Suggested Open Letter to Press Outlets

You seem to be under the illusion that this protest is 'doing something'. It's not - other than giving the press and public a further giggle at our expense and showing that even when there's a tragedy you can rely on footie fans not to care

What's "unbelievable" is that none of you seem to realise that club ownership has loads of bad times, i.e. Vincent Tan at Cardiff before Warnock took over. Have you got a plan for who's buying the club, which will make us better? Or are we OK bumming around mid-League 2 under an amiable supporters trust as at least it will be 'our club'!!

 

Christ Park now you've done it!! You can't really mean the protesting fans on here don't represent the true supporters? Surely not!!

 

That's a very relevant comment when someone is so obsessed with the owners being lily white, not my fault gov, it was that Stuart McCall who couldn't do his job..........................and that Championship manager who was no better...............not forgetting Micheal Collins, who gave him the job.................oh ye I did, in fact I gave them all the job after pissing Phil Parkinson off, telling him I'd be available to bounce football matters off him...................because you have to take me seriously "I know football", you keep banging the Edin drum there are about still about 4/5 feel Edin's the fall guy in all this.

 

You're not going to get change though. Name me a club where this type of 'owner out!!' has worked and the club benefited positively, i.e. half a division improvement. I keep asking you and the others and get no answers

Blackpool and Charlton were a Championship club when they went viral and are still protesting. Leyton Orient carried on sliding down the league

If it wasn't my club it would be laughable that anyone thought that this actually works

Do what you want to do, but don't call others idiots or question their ethics (as someone else did) because we don't agree with these actions

 

We're going to be in league 2 regardless, whether it be an 'amiable supporters trust' or Rupp and Rahic. It matters not whether other clubs have had bad times, the only club we are interested in is this one. As for the 'fly over'. Couldn't care less, but please don't link it to the tragedy at Leicester. It has nothing to do with that.
As for giving the press and public a giggle at our expense. Why not? Could do with a laugh after having to endure Bradford City in 2018.

 

Edin needs no help in making OUR CLUB a laughing stock, I think our situation has been well covered recently, that was without any help from a fans protests, even Simon Parker's seen the light and is now asking relevant questions.

 

I don't think any owners of any company are "lilly white" - but you keep saying it as it suits your argument. Stuart McCall has just lost five on the bounce at Scunthorpe and actually conceded more goals than us in the last few matches - so no I'm not going to concede that his sacking was wrong

Where's your 4/5 from? Here and the T&A back pages? When have 100% of fans ever backed a chairman anyway? There was always around a third pissed off with Lawn

You keep coming out with the same tired old soundbites. We all know what Edin said about him knowing football and he looks increasingly like an idiot. Doesn't make it right though to fly a banner in the same match we're giving a minute silence in memory of the victims of a flying accident. It's astonishing just how many on here are so far away from the real world when they think this is a good idea

 

Unlike you of course.

He only looks like an idiot, I think where he has taken our club in just over two years at the helm, it's far worse than looking an idiot.

 

Amid all the noise..................I contributed because for once, Bradford City fans were not so full of apathy that they actually went and did something to protest against this abject ownership regime. That's it for me, we are doing something , wahaaay, who'd have thought that?

The alternative is letting somebody kick you in the knackers, though some would go further and actually thank them!

 

I'm happy to give my support and energy to supporting the club so we can try and win as many of the nearly 100 points available. Kindly don't criticise the players any more, when they don't turn up when apparently you think "We're going to be in league 2 regardless"

If this gets turned around, i.e. Cardiff style (look where they were two seasons ago) there's going to be a lot of embarrassed folk on these boards

 

I've hardly mentioned Edin in this thread!! In fact he wasn't named until you or someone else brought him up. Priceless memory recollection

Please stop thinking I give a flying fig about Rahic. I don't.

But I also think the flying of the banner is a bad idea - any chance you can debate that?

 

Dream on............
Name the comparisons.

 

Some would let Rahic kick them in the balls and then thank him afterwards by asking him if his foot was alright.

 

@banbrotam - i think you are doing an excellent job re "embarrassed folk"

keep up the good work as a WUM- we are laughing at you not with you.

 

I prefer to look at where we were two seasons ago....

 

I was referring to "soundbites" you keep on about other teams we don't care about Cardiff, Blackpool, Charlton ETC we see what is happening at Valley Parade and rather than sit on our hands some have decided enough is enough, and chipped in to pay for a fly bye.
Unfortunately there was a terrible disaster at Leicester and we will be holding minutes silence as will every other football club, as the plane is booked to fly past at 3:10 to 3:15 I don't see how that is any way disrespectful.

 

Hey why not go the whole hog and ban all planes and helicopters? I saw some pigeons flying around today, let's ban them too, damned insensitive creatures.

Talk about Generation Snowflake. Or are you just using this an an excuse because for some unfathomable reason you want to keep the tyrant in power?

 

EXCELLENT POST!

 

Every

Liverpool getting rid of their yank owners in 2010, they’ve come on leaps and bounds now they’re back where they should be

 

Clubs don’t change ownership very often, usually because owners know how to run a football club and generally fans are satisfied that their club is being run properly!
