Salgados Hair Posted February 28 Posted February 28 Roverseas' avatar is on the statement. I find it a bit odd that he hasn't put out a YT video about it. It's not like he needs an excuse to put out a video.. 3 Quote

They seem to have opposing views to the majority of the WATR membership. Quote

Fantastic that statement from 2(?) weeks ago. But absolutely no communication or update since? Edited March 1 by RoversClitheroe 2 Quote
lraC Posted March 9 Posted March 9 Is there any way of canvassing the fans/ membership about a none renewal of season tickets, unless there is some proper communication from the owners about their intentions? 2 Quote

Salgados Hair Posted March 9 Posted March 9 The Trust should ask Roverseas with his 43,000 followers on Youtube to put out a video.. Quote

Farther and wider than a single twitter post anyway.... Again, the lack of presence even on here is piss poor. I do 100% support the stance the trust is taking. 3 Quote

Desperately needed to keep the pressure on the Venkys/Pasha and I worry that's been lost with the lack of comms with the fans. Has there been any meetings with Waggott/Pasha since the statement?

WATR said yesterday "We haven't received a response from the club. However, we didn’t expect the club to comment or acknowledge our statement because it was aimed at the owners. " so I take no meetings cos they would have to acknowledged the statement. What pressure on you putting on Venkys when they are India? Quote

The pressure isn’t stopping by any means. I’m currently working on a comms consultation to find out from members and fans, how we can improve comms, type of content 👀. I will put this on here for everyone to see and give their input. We are waiting to finalise the next date for our MOU Meeting. 2 Quote

Plenty of differing opinions and maybe the odd fall out, but I think almost everyone on here, thinks the same way about the owners and communication of some sort, seems vital. Quote

We are waiting to finalise the next date for our MOU Meeting. For what it’s worth I’m not sure WATR need to improve comms through content. WATR need to recognise that they don’t have the reach or membership to make any meaningful change alone. For what it’s worth, neither does BRFCS. It needs coordinated messaging from multiple partners to try and get as many fans as possible on the same thought process. RE the MOU meeting, I’ve been a Rovers Trust member for a long time and I’ve never once been asked what I would like asking at these meetings. WATR cannot claim to represent its membership if its membership is never asked for their opinion. 11 Quote

Correct, question I've asked in this topic for months, but no response. Comms needs to be better than whatever Rovers do. Still think it's a disgrace how the Trust lauded that prick Gestede like he was a legend when in fact he refused to play to fuck off elsewhere. Quote
Backroom DE. Posted March 11 Backroom Posted March 11 "We are reaching the situation" where Venky's aren't prepared to listen to the fans? It's been like that since day one. 2 Quote
Members rog of the rovers Posted March 11 Members Posted March 11 Just a quick lunchtime scan at some football protests from 2024/25. There are a lot of disgruntled fans out there! Arsenal - Ticket prices Manchester United - Ticket prices/ownership Tottenham - Daniel Levy/ticket prices/ownership West Ham United - ticket prices Chelsea - ownership Leicester City - board level Sheffield Wednesday - ownership Reading - ownership Morecambe - ownership Watford - ownership Bradford - ownership Ipswich Town - ticket prices Fulham - ticket prices MK Dons - ownership West Brom - ownership 2 Quote
Moptop1 Posted March 11 Posted March 11 And yet most of our fans carry happily bobbing along, doing nothing.😡 Quote

Herbie6590 Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Only an empty stadium would force Suhail & Steve to have to go to the owners and admit there's a problem. But...that is simply never going to happen. It's not like boycotting Asda & shopping in Tesco - football is a drug. Many people will continue to go because of many & various social reasons/habit/loyalty BUT...there is little doubt that the "loyal rump" of season ticket holders is dwindling & more fans seem happier to go to away games. I've used the phrase "death of a thousand cuts" on many podcasts, that's where we are. Slowly, inexorably, drifting away from any credible aspiration to return to the Premier League. The life support machine remains plugged in...for now, but no surgical or medical plan has been agreed to restore full health. 8 Quote
DeeCee Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Part of the problem is, we don't know what Swag and Pasha are saying to the Chicken Chokers. And probably never will. 2 Quote
