I am not so sure. I have spoken to alot of members who are adamant that they will not renew again until he is gone. I am seriously considering following the same rule. Still might renew unless we re-sign Thompson. If they do that I will not return until the two of them are goneQuote:

For me, perhaps. If GVE walked out tomorrow and we went to the usual suspects and suddenly had Kosmina in charge, I wouldn't renew. GVE was the safe, unimaginative option and it's turned out to be disastrous.Quote:

You'll should be re-signing as members and getting to as many games as possible, nothing says I have the right to bitch and moan like being a ticketed member. Plus at $130 (iirc) you only need to attend 1/2 the matches to cover cost and after 4 home games of the same GVE will get the boot* and we'll see Deans back in charge as the interim coach at the SFS.
based purely on speculation that GVE has until round 8 to prove himself
I emailed HSG a month ago and said I would not be renewing. (Gold Family membership in Western Grandstand) To their credit they came back and sought feedback. My response was " Unfortunately, the team is not entertaining enough to continue watching"
They said they will try harder bla bla bla.
The membership figures will be whatever they will be. The more worrying thing is when I speak to people around town, and I've been around the local scene for a long time, the number of older football people, ex players and coaches who refuse to go to games because of the style of play being dished up. A lot of these guys are often retired and most have a few bob to spend, you'd think they'd look forward to an A-League game in their home town. If the football didn't put you to sleep and they could maintain the current membership and engage the many who don't go to games the place would be jumping. The ringleader in all this is the coach and people all over are sick of the tripe he has served up over the last 2 seasons. Especially with the preparation, recourses and a pretty handy squad at his disposal. Looks like we have to suffer another year.
Over the last 30 odd years of national leagues I have heard so many people say "never again" etc etc etc
They keep coming back, no matter what.
I guess the concern or the point i making is for every member lost the club needs to find two more new ones to continue to obtain growth , is that posssible ?.
To my way of thinking some of these people they are gonna lose are not really serious about the club anyway. The types that signed up when the Memberships were put out at dirt cheap prices. The same people who without the cheap memberships would most likely be missing majority of the time anyways except when they jumped aboard the bandwagon going when the club are at the top end of the league
The same sort of people that wouldn't get off their arses to go to an F3 derby in Gosford anyways yet call themselves a ****ing Jets fan.
As for the rest of you ****s that are thinking of not renewing.:angry::what:
Some of you ****s really need to have a good hard look at yourself and are dead set forgetting what supporting a football club is about. Backing up year in year out with or without success is a sign you are a true fan.
Support the club through THROUGH THICK AND THIN
Wouldn't mind a bit of THICK, not penis of course
wut
thick = good
thin = bad
penis = lady pleaser
GVE = bad lady pleaser
Mate if this is your true definition of a jets supporter don't be suprised to see 5000 as opposed to 12000 fans next year.A large % of family memberships are not die hard supporters as you believe yourself to be but just football supporters in general looking for an entertaining game.If you want all fans to travel your probs looking at membership in the couple of hundreds. As for this "cvnt" I've had a good hard look at myself and nothing has changed.I have cancelled our family membership and will follow solo if I believe the football is worth watching.But really champ who the **** are you to say who is a supporter or not.Quote:

Love this "true fan" debate.
Really galvanizes the supporters together.

It is going through the hard times that make the good times so much better
I thought the only true fans were the ones that made the first Sydney away trip. At least that was the story on the old forum.Quote:

I never said you were insane I said I have doubts about your sanity.
Is reading/comprehension not one of your strong points cause you have gone off half cocked here. Go back and reread the last pages.
Glad to see you take the internet so seriously and have the keyboard warrior mentality:roflz:
Keep laughing champQuote:

It's easy. Just get on FB and call Kale rubbish, the Member is there within seconds to defend him. That's how I scouted him out. Then left dead kale in his letterbox (the salad leafy thing, not the player. duh).Quote:

This is quite possibly the most inaccurate statement ever said in the history of the internetz ever.Quote:

Possible but I have not officially sanctioned them. At this stage it is only handbags at 10 paces.Quote:

Seldom should relax a little.
I can't work out why he gets so upset at my posts anyway. The bloke don't like me anyways but for some reason feels the urge to get fired up at me and feels the need hunt me down. Can't understand why he wastes so much energy/effort on me when he dislikes me so
Hopefully he was just a little tired and emotional or had too much too drink last night and can offer that up as a reason for his OTT outburst
I dont know about that, I just saw him at the shops. still seems a bit annoyed.Quote:

Besides, you do have a pretty decent ability to annoy people. You could learn to be a little more 'tactful' in your posts.
Anyway we are losing sight here.
Back on topic please.
Middleby OUT.
edit: I dont actually know Seldom or if he in fact looks anything like the manager of Club America, I just wanted to post that gif because it is truly amazing.
cool your jets :rof:
why not?Quote:
