thenodrog Posted August 9, 2005 Author Posted August 9, 2005 I travelled up from Swindon for the week to watch the friendly games (Swansea, Grimsby and Espanyol) *Blue Peter badge for me*.. but I care about friendlies and the progress the team has made from the previous season and i go to check out new signings and give them encouragement.. so if i can manage to make the effort from all the way down here I think it's disgusting that the 'fans' up there can't be bothered and have the same attitude you have.. and that's why our attendance is so crap is because people like you don't see that every game is important wether it be a friendly and not just the high profile games, see you at West Ham 337931[/snapback] Is Brisa going to have a 'supporter of the year' award? If so Kimberley gets my nomination. See you at West Ham too Kimberley.

Manchester Blue Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 I think they were going to have a knob of the year award but realised like with certain Grooby's it would be a foregone conclusion.
KimberleyBRFC Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Nobody is obligated to attend though, Kimberley. We're all consumers and everybody has the choice. I went to Espanyol but had to work instead of going to Grimsby and couldn't find the motivation to go to Swansea. Yet I went to 36 league games last season and 38 the season before. I don't think friendlies matter and don't have a problem with people who don't attend. I don't feel obliged to go to them all. I don't think they matter at all. Is the attendence problem because of 'people like me'? 337935[/snapback] Aww don't be like that.. i'm not saying people have to go to every game.. i was pointing out to the fella that friendlies are important too, well to some of us.. everyone has their own opinion i was just expressing mine. I meant fans that can't be bothered to go to normal games in general also not just friendlies. No offence to anyone wasn't meant to start a war before i've even started posting on here

See you at West Ham too Kimberley. 337937[/snapback] Thank you rog.. didn't mean to get anyones backs up it's difficult trying to get involved on boards like this.. i think i'll just observe from now on.

See you at West Ham too Kimberley. 337937[/snapback] TND, Every other post seems to be a dig at either Scotty or another poster, or the proposed ISA. May I ask what your problem is? You have been invited more than once to come along to the ISA meetings, we want as many people as possible to attend, as the 8 or so new faces at the last meeting will testify.
philipl Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Don't worry Kimberley, I don't think that was addressed to you. But you are correct, no need for the abuse.
Glenn Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Now now no need 337941[/snapback] I'm sure that wasn't aimed at you .... but you're right.
KimberleyBRFC Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Welcome to the site Kimberley. 337942[/snapback] Very much appreciated Ricky thank you for making the effort pleasure to meet you
Manchester Blue Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Now now no need 337941[/snapback] Wasn't aimed at you. Welcome to the site anyway.
thenodrog Posted August 9, 2005 Author Posted August 9, 2005 Yeah damned rude, juvenile and unecessary and obviously thrown with the confidence and cowardice provided by internet anonymity. Care to tell us just who it was aimed at Manc?

No offence to anyone wasn't meant to start a war before i've even started posting on here 337939[/snapback] I apologise if that sounded hostile. I dread the day somebody categorises me in the same boat as tnr. I just don't think that Shillito should be criticsed for saying that he didn't feel the friendly was value for money or interesting enough for some people to attend.
KimberleyBRFC Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Wasn't aimed at you. Welcome to the site anyway. 337949[/snapback] Lol i realised i was reading the site wrong way up sorry Thank you x

Care to tell us just who it was aimed at Manc? 337950[/snapback] Do you mean the same type of anonymity that allows you to make jibes, gripes and personal comments about others particularly people involved in the ISA. You haven't answered Stu's question anyway. What is your problem. Is it jealousy or more likely that it's easier to whinge and gripe than actually do something yourself. For someone so concerned that they start a thread on friendly attendances I would have thought you'd jump at the chance to be involved.

Anyway Shillito's loss cos it was a good game, very entertaining \o/
Paul Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Probably is phil - the Visa bill just arrived asking for the ST money theno I'm simply saying if people feel so strongly do something
Glenn Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Lol i realised i was reading the site wrong way up sorry Thank you x 337953[/snapback] You'll soon learn that until the season starts, the main sport around here revolves around about a dozen regular posters baiting each other, whilst everyone either laughs, leaves or takes cover
blue phil Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 it's difficult trying to get involved on boards like this.. i think i'll just observe from now on. 337943[/snapback] It's nigh on becoming impossible on this forum - board rules are simply ignored half the time ..... ..Stick at it , though

blue phil Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Thats what the report button is for. 337962[/snapback] Running to the teacher ? Not my style , Glenn . And let's face it the mods themselves aren't immune from breaking the rules....
bellamy11 Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 We not like each other on this site ?.. i can't keep up who's not friends with who anyone care to help me out 337963[/snapback] That could open the world's biggest box of frogs. Just spend a bit of time around here and it will become very apparent. If you're that interested, look at any thread in ICBINF with political connotations, and just wait for a few of the big issues to get re-discussed on here. It tends to cycle every few months.
