BCST meeting with Edin

And most importantly that he is convinced he's the complete opposite of that...

 

So let me get this right in my own mind....

It's 25 yr season ticket fans fault because they said spend on the pitch rather than players. So now the pitch is done and it seems to be draining properly we have to water it more, hence the increase in water bills. You buggers for purchasing 25 yr tickets and being loyal to your club!!

Shipley Bantams fault (sorry Steve!) for buying those electric lights to help the grass grow better but now increasing electric bill!!

Flamingo Land fault for increasing the rent substantially. Haven't read anywhere about a rent increase...in fact I thought we had negotiated a decrease several years ago so can't see why this year has gone up so substantially but again surely there will have been a contract in place?

Fan's fault for creating a toxic atmosphere for player's. Was perfectly fine that first year until the Ego decided he knew football.

Accused fans again of being xenophobic, wonder where @brisbanebantams works?

The smallest paragraph refers to a mistake in appointing Collins....

No doubt some people will say you wouldn't believe him whatever he says but after reading that again, no I wouldn't. It's not his fault, apart from Collins, it appears to be OUR fault overall'

Couldn't make it up!!

 

If the product you are selling is below par, don't blame the customer for it.

Some very weak excuses in that statement, but blaming the fans for the atmosphere is pretty below the belt.

 

There's no way Blackpool would have got promoted from L2 if the input of fans actually affected results.

Abysmal excuses.

Embarrassing, but what do you expect?

 

This bit rankles more than most of the bullshit:

"The Trust feels that any action at this time which would be detrimental to recruitment and to results, and potentially to the clubs League One status, would not be in the interests of the Club or the fans in the short term or long term."

WTF does a supposed report on the PR exercise meeting, include this propaganda nugget halfway through?

 

Just thought I'd check out City via Wikipedia and was reminded that VP was sold to Gibb in 2003 for 5m and we pay 1.2m annually ground rent and maintenance costs to his pension fund. So that adds up to around 18m so far! Would be nice to get this confirmed by the Club because this is becoming a fair old burden in my eyes. Must admit, I thought we only paid around £350,000 pa in ground rent. Rahic states there has been a sizeable increase in this area, so perhaps someone can shed a little more light on this.

 

Wikipedia, that bastion of truth.

The £1.2m included the shop and offices which Lawn and Rhodes bought to reduce the rent. The rent is different levels according to which division we are in. I’d be very surprised if the club pays maintenance fees for the landlord. Can’t see why improving the stadium at your own cost increases the rent but Edin knows commercial leases.

 

As any intelligent fans knows CIty wouldn’t have got Man United in the Cup.

 

The rent is NOT at different levels according to division. Gibb offered Rhodes this but he rejected it. The rent increases at set times along the lease. I think there has just been an increase.

 

Mason claimed we would, because we would have been the same ball number as Yeovil.

I think it was on Radio Leeds.

 

Yes. We just paid £300,000 for Doyle and a rumoured £400,000 for Scannell.

 

We didn’t pay anything for Scannell.

 

But if we had beaten Yeovil the whole reality would have been different so the draw would have been totally different. You have to be intelligent to understand.

 

I agree with the trust.

Don’t give Edin any excuse to blame the fans by supporting the players during the game and saving any protests until after the game.

 

How can anyone say that some supporters are not xenophobic?

You can read xenophobic comments on this forum, Facebook and Twitter. A

 

*****WINNER*****

 

Inspirational stuff.

Edin Rahic. Co-owner, Chairman, CEO, Head of Football, Leader, Legend.

 

Mason's not very intelligent then.....

 

Obviously, he’s just gone to Rochdale !!!
