Just hope both party’s can get around the table to build bridges, although I can’t see it happening. The long term damage and reputation will be unrepairable.

Is it now 16 pound a year membership?

I think it did go up a few quid so yes maybe slightly more now but I know of some people who pay £5 or even £10 a month. I just don’t think people should be cancelling memberships, that’s not going to help. They should go and have a say, they can’t if they are no longer members and certainly will lose more interest in the club in the long term as well.

You should be more concerned about the state of our club rather than what those gimps up the road are doing. The fans haven't created the clusterflip in which we find ourselves. You're either trolling or just in denial. It's not just the usual doom-mongers having a go, it's also people who usually try and stick up for the club. Open your eyes ffs.

Your right about the cestrians laughing at us,bet they are thinking 5500 fans and they are still 20th in the national league.

May well be QR, but this isn't the playground, this is business. Successful businesses overcome `personality clashes'.

Whilst it may `only affect the viewing platform' and `only affect' a few fans, to those fellow fans it's essential - they don't have the freedom of choice to view the match from wherever they want, so it is important.

Your third sentence has clearly been overtaken by the release of further information by the DSA.

While that statesbthe club were permitted to award comp tickets i dont think the club said it wouldnt because of competition rules did they? Additionally the DSA would have happily bought tickets. It was the bit about not being able to be on the pitch due to competition rules wasnt it? Be interesting to see which rule would have been infracted upon.
