Season over?

Re: Season over?
Looking at the remaining fixtures I can see us getting as little as another 15 points based on current form of all teams. Top 4 (& possibly top 6) could be near on impossible by the end of February.
Re: Season over?
I wonder how much revenue the club will lose with lost season ticket sales next month?!!

Not to mention every neutral or fan with no club affiliation sprinting over to the Ricoh!
Re: Season over?
Why would the club lose money on season tickets? Supporters shouldn't stop turning up now things aren't going well.
Talk about fickle.

Nonsense Ellis! Its not a one way street. Fans deserve more,its not a cheap day out anymore. Dont you dare call supporters who dont wanna go anymore fake fans which is what you are insinuating,thats wholly unfair!
Re: Season over?
I'll call them what I believe they are! I have never understood and will never understand why you would firstly stop showing your support to the team that's in your heart and secondly, even consider changing allegiances, let alone actually then start supporting another team. That is fickle. So that's what I will call people that do it.Rugbyflanker wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2017 6:27 pm Nonsense Ellis! Its not a one way street. Fans deserve more,its not a cheap day out anymore.

I, on the other hand will criticise fans that decide not to turn up as they only want to see success.

Re: Season over?
When was the last time we had success,bar the Mickey Mouse cup? You dont think fans have done well putting up with this mess for nearly 5 years?
Re: Season over?
As some would say FAITH is defined as belief without proof. Much akin to HOPE not being a strategy. I don't see much evidence of any proof or any strategy.WiggoTiger wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2017 6:42 pm As someone used to say.... KEEP THE FAITH!!

Let's face it how many fans only started watching after our four domestic and two European wins years ago.Rugbyflanker wrote: ↑Sun Dec 31, 2017 6:44 pm When was the last time we had success,bar the Mickey Mouse cup? You dont think fans have done well putting up with this mess for nearly 5 years?
Tigers have always had peaks and troughs. We're in a deep trench at present and looks like a struggle to get out but I'm a Tiger through and through and will go week in week out to watch.
We will rise again.........

I'm sure people are annoyed at the most successful English club having not won a title since 2013. However, that does not mean people stop turning up because if it.
Re: Season over?
If one believed that fundamental change was needed then what catalyst for that change can we invoke. Repeatedly turning out only reinforces belief that change is not needed. I guess its a question of evolution v revolution. I don't have the lifespan left for evolution.

Re: Season over?
Fickle?! Costs me a grand in travel costs and ST alone to follow the Tigers. Its a 3 hour trip up, 3 hour trip home. That doesn't include refreshments or away trips.
Why on earth should I continue to hand money over to a club who have obvious problems but aren't addressing them.
I love this club and I will continue to love this club however I'm recently married and planning to start a family and buy a house. I come home from games :censored: off and upset why should I continue to give up my time and money when the players on the pitch seem less bothered about a loss than I do in the stand?!
Everyone has different reasons for stopping going to matches and that gives you no right to call people fickle if they choose to walk away.
