    Simple. Why didn't I think of that. I'm sure everyone in football knows we are already for sale.

    So we make it toxic for them and drive them out the club. Rupp decides to cut his losses and sells to the first chancer to make an offer. I don't see that as a bright future. Doesn't mean I don't want Rupp to go by the way, but not at any cost.

    We have a poor record with the EFLwith regards some of our fans we shouldn't be encouraging them.

    The Crawley fans want them out. WAGMI OUT stickers all over the toilets in their clubhouse when I went last season!

    Ok well if we don’t/won’t , why should the owner put his money into something he didn’t/doesn’t give two fecks about?
    Something has to give or it’ll be League 2 forever if we’re lucky

    Of course it’s not guaranteed promotion but fans protesting to the owners about lack of investment is a tad hypocritical.
    It’s like complaining about the quality of the beef at McDonalds when you’ve paid £0.99 for it.

    He knew the way our season tickets were priced when he purchased the club and I believe he has commented they will say cheap, this scenario has been done to death, he'd be a very brave owner to put season tickets up by over £100 and hope to cover the loss with regards reduced attendances and the knock on that might have with regards merchandise, hospitality and sponsorship, but that just my opinion let's give it a whirl and hope it doesn't fall flat on its face.

    Owner investment would be nice, but whats needed much more is owner interest. Put someone experienced and capable of running a football club in charge to set in place a proper strategy and football operation. Actually give a sh*t enough to put the club in good hands.

    There's not a single league two side that's ever needed 15,000 customers paying "full price" to achieve promotion.

    There's sides in the championship that don't average that and they seem to be coping well enough.

    How about we do scarf parade? But instead of scarfs hold up lemons. Lemons to show how sour we are at the current situation.

    We would certainly look like Lemons. Perhaps Bananas might be better

    I'll warn the club so the stewards are aware.
