[SIMON GARNERS 194]

We are the talk of Football for all the wrong reasons,kicked on our Arse and dragged backwards through the Shit by our so-called owners.

People not allowed to be interviewed, ex employees having to sign NDAs etc.

Where are we living? North Korea?

I think the pitch and subsoil must be clogged up and will need a major overhaul in summer. If it were merely the drain not being able to take the water in very heavy rain, (i.e. running full bore), all it would need is a sump and a pump with a discharge pipe over the river.

Yet weirdly there is an article on LT with quotes from their manager talking about the pitch flooding an nothing from Vi

same as Ipswich, so their coach clearly spoke to the media

If only we had the gumption of a club of the status of, say, Rochdale. More determined to sort out the problem immediately rather than risk it killing more winter games.

We as a MINIMUM should be reimbursing all away fans tickets and travel, AND making plans to sort it out immediately and groundsharing in the meantime, even if that means with Blackpool.

I know it’s my own club, but a points deduction is needed here.

Professional tier two club who can’t provide a suitable pitch, need to be made an example of.

I only hope this leaves the owners with the embarrassment for the cost cutting.

We've already punished ourselves by losing possibly up to 5 points, getting injuries unnecessarily, bookings to count towards suspensions unnecessarily, national embarassment and having to play 2 more league games this season than nearly everyone (except Ipswich and Sheff W, for who it's only one more).

Talk of any further punishment is daft.

I honestly do not believe talk of further punishment is daft. It’s the clubs fault alone this, so why should they get away with it?
