Just had a quick look at the Herald website re the article about HK. The article drew all of two comments from people. I know we are out of season and interest in general reduces however i would have thought more than two comments could have been expected.

My question is given some on here have posted they are not renewing membership ( including my family ) are we really seeing people demonstrating more than just lip service in there disappontment of the retention of GVE.

As usual on a Saturday mornings we head off to my young blokes game and chat with other parents of kids in the side and i can honestly say about a third who have had membership in the past mainly family packages have expressed that they will not be renewing membership this season. Having known these parents for many years i believe there statements are also more than just lip service but an actual intention.

My point being that unlike on most occasions when people have time to get over disappointment and think with a straight head they cave in go along with the status quo.

Palmers endoresment of GvE really does seem to have left a longer than usual negative effect on the club.

Surely those at the club don't have there heads in the clouds that much that they can't see or hear this, they would have to be concerned would they not ?.
