Open letter from the Owner

I’m not sure why he supports us or a football team either. Imagine being a Cherries fan seeing Solanke tear apart top sides. Luton Town fans are loving it as well, I was in the away end at Brentford when we won 6-2 as well under Holloway.

Things to remember guys, it’s competitive and really hard.

Even if you do everything right; you can still lose.

As an example, injuries. It is not as simple as you think. All the other teams are trying as hard as we are.

Being honest, mid table L1 is about our level. Of course I want more but for goodness sake, City have spent over 100M for about 20 league places above us.

You can hope to do a Luton and get lucky, and we may one day.

Go easy on the board and manager. As far as I can see they are putting their money and their time where their mouth is.

We are batting at our level and that’s better than we had for years.
Our time will come I am sure.

All we can do is be the best fans we can be and make the Mem a place opposition teams fear. Are we doing that? No. We can be a weak home crowd and we need the team to act first.

How about instead of barraging the board, we grab our testicles and resolve to make the mem like ninnian park in the 90s. An inferno.

That’s all we can do. Sing your heart out instead of finding other fans to shop to the stasi for singing about the IRA. Give your head a wobble, get some pints down you and let’s ave it.

Or words to this effect.



I remember in the Holloway days going 3-0 down at home and the blackthorn giving a massive, loud rendition of Irene. Pretty sure we rescued that game. That wouldn’t happen now, we’ve become like t the old city fans we hated.

Culture change needed.

Once we’ve proven ourselves as fans again then maybe we can criticise.

Yes I am on holiday and yes I’ve had a few rice wines but I mean every word.

Get on board or get out.

UTFG. We can do this!

I bet Luton fans are loving it as well.

They've done it without spending copious amounts of money and in a ground with barely a 12k capacity, where you still have to walk through peoples back gardens to get into the away end.

As you mentioned " 3 years to the Championship tells me we are not spending big and quick to get up there, it also tells me last season top 8 budget is being reduced.

Its clear to me this is now a process of getting costs down, like Wenger at Arsenal paying off the Emirates, our money is going on the Mem and they have a manager who accepts a low budget like at Exeter.

If you wanted Championship football asap, you’d be bank rolling a top 6 budget, minimum play off push"

That's pretty much how Luton have done it.

"Two successful planning applications", I would have been more impressed had they resulted in actually building something.

Kind regards

I don't understand the line,"We will share our designs and plans once we have obtained all the necessary approvals.". Surely they have to release the designs/plans first so the consultation process can begin to get them approved?
