It won't make an iota of difference whether I attend any game or not. I accept it is bad form but I put it in the same box as those who say they will not attend future games due to decisions of the RL judiciary.

I dont think that will do much to bring the floating fans back though by slating them.

I dont go to big games anymore expecting a good game I go just for a surprise if we win, I missed yesterday as I was playing american football but I went to the Easter games, 50% of our opening games due to work and all of last season, does that make me not a real fan?

I get he may have had a brainfart we all have but to slate the very people you need to turn the sinking ship around is very poor form.

Indeed, Chris Caisley once slated the fans and blamed them for not turning up in even bigger numbers, in the last year of his reign. Blaming people who had never even been before for not turning up probably took it to a new level..

Truth is the customer is always right [even when he's wrong..] they are profit and staff, however vital to the company, are overheads.

If yesterday turns out to be the light that ignites the candle and we do pull off a great escape he may have a point and those who stayed away on purpose will be cursing their decision and then he can come out and say "all those who doubted us, blah blah blah".

Hopefully (fingers crossed) this is what we needed, FC seems to have put a rocket up em to perform and cats where predicted as a top 6 so that should prove we are capable.

Quite. Anybody who doesn't attend a game because of what someone says about whether or not they are a true fan is not a true fan.

How can I find out if I am a "true fan", not sure if I'm in trouble with SD or not #askstuart

I wonder if SD knows the Fosbury Flop?
