Most liked posts in thread: Next home game, protest

F off you narrow minded fool. Fans are upset that two owners WITH MONEY are actually taking us backwards. It has NOTHING to do with their Nationality.

Yes there may be one or two that bring his Nationality into it, but the majority have no bearing on where he comes from.

You have constantly criticised anyone that dared to write down their concerns and I’m offended you claim we are doing it for reasons other than the football on offer.

How dare you..!

 

So is Collins

 

Next home game is against Charlton?

Instead of "debating" why not contact CARD the protest group at Charlton and see if they're up for a joint protest as they did with Coventry.
They are well organised and very experienced campaigners.

 

Count me out with anything that targets his family.

 

There have been a couple of posters who have tried to link disatisfaction at our start to the season to some sort of right wing xenophobic hatred. These posters are nothing short of pathetic. One fan confronting Edin Rahic does not constitute a racist fan base.

 

We should have nothing to do with any anti Germany rhetoric, it will defeat the purpose and allow the owners off the hook. It isn’t about their nationality, this is about incompetence which as far as I am aware has no race or nationality.

We need to stand together as fans and supporters and keep focused. I am sure they already know we are unhappy and quite frankly disgusted about they way they are running our club.

 

After 6 weeks of interviews, an amateur who didn't even apply for the job got it because nobody else was willing to work under the conditions Rahic set out. How much more evidence do you need!?

 

Really? Crap?

One trip to Wembley and still in play off spot when he was sacked.

If that's crap then please can we have another crap manager asap.

 

If they were from Huddersfield and someone said get back to Huddersfield does that make them racist in any way, shape or form. Does it mean that they dislike all people from Huddersfield?

Or, heaven forbid, what if they were from Bury and someone said 'get back over t'hill to Lancashire where ya belong'. What's that? Countiest?

'German' is not a race, it is a nationality.

Now, if people are saying offensive things it doesn't matter where they are from they should be dealt with. Throw them out of the ground if needs be. But come on. Saying get back to Germany is hardly offensive, unless you're a snowflake.

 

Because its where they are from.

we wouldn't shout "feck off back to England" at anyone because we are in England. that much should be obvious.

referring to Rahic as German is NOT racist or xenophobic, and you could do worse than to stop continually labelling fellow supporters as such.
I take offence at anyone that decides I only dislike Rupp and Rahic because of their nationality. and I won't put up with it anymore.

 

Please fellow City fans, seen one or two really daft posts about making stupid anti-German comments - our feelings on the way our club is being run are totally justified, sadness, anger and let down are just some of them. But if this manifests itself in a barrage of abuse to our German owners THIS is what will be reported and focused on. I really do want changes to happen at our club because I see no way forward under the current regime but we need to do it with dignity because we love our club and in the knowledge we will still love it long after they have gone. There was another good post which looked on the bright side that was is happening might actually end up in unifying the fans again and our wish for changes has to be based on wanting a more positive future and not hijacked by hate. I want Rahic to go because I dont think he is doing a good job and is taking our club backwards, NOT because he is German.

 

No. The past is not to be used for the 'benefit' of today or the future.

 

I'll also pay for his flights and accommodation if he'll take mine.

 

I'll catch them. Salt and vinegar for me, cheers.

 

A few lions used to be quite good entertainment.

 

Does that word mean an irrational dislike and distrust of people from Oxenhope?

 

All this talk of protests concern me.

Anybody who knows me either through this site, C&B or personally will know my feelings on these two ''owners". I would prefer them gone but what of potential new owners? Anyhow, I digress.

Now here is my take on the issue of a protest, not I believe mentioned once.

As @Bantamsteve stated above, I want a peaceful protest (if it actually occurs). My reason is very simple, their are youngsters who go to VP each week, some very young, whom shouldn't be aggrieved, frightened or fearful of attending the game thereof.

So yes peaceful but also tasteful with respect too.

I may get shot down, so be it but that is my concern.

 

You don’t half write some guff sometimes. Us ‘knockers’ and ‘teeth grinders’ could see what was wrong when the appointment was made, no hindsight needed. The way you are looking at it Collins was only ever a temporary measure because Rahic was waiting for Hopkin to finally say yes. Quite plausible apart from Rahic threw him a three year deal, hardly a temporary measure. We can all make things up from reading between the lines, just like i have just done, just like you did with your post i originally posted.
But this is fact, Rahic appointed a complete unknown with no managerial experience, had not one days experience of coaching an adult football league side even as an assistant. He then saddles him with an apprentice equally with no football league managerial experience at all and a guy coming back from illness who is the chief scout/recruitment. And then sacks the
Head Coach after six games quoting ‘results weren’t what we expected.’ Well no sh/t sherlock. Had Rahic employed a coach with some sort of experience and we had the same start to the season he could quite rightly lay a high percentage of the blame on the coach, he’s given him some half decent players to work with, we should be showing progress. But he didn’t he expected instant results from the football equivalent of the chuckle brothers. So much for ‘long term progress. And guess what. He employed them, one of them never even applied for the job, i suspect neither did the other two.
Do you know what? Us teeth grinders and knockers. We know a bit about football. A bit more than Rahic by the looks of it.

 

They didn’t inherit what you did edin
