Again, there was no need to refuse the SC to hold the SC player of the year awards in the pitch... this was just him flexing his power
Hasn't it been well covered that Thompson comment wasn't aimed at one person but at the specific problem within the club at the time.
A comment which seems to have been generally correct given that it was later found that there was something rotten internally.

It was just that some with their own agendas decided to take it as being aimed elsewhere as it suited them.

Overall a lot of damage has been done over thanks few years by an awful lot of incredibly childish behaviour.
It's time a lot of people grew up and packed it all in.

The club has changed and to be honest the supporters club probably isn't as important as it used to be and they don't seem to like it much.

It’s all about status isn’t it? I was a member of the supporters club a few years back and if you weren’t in “the click” you were just another number! People need to recognise that supporters support and not wreck, attitudes and perceptions need to change from both sides and singling out people doesn’t help. And as for the coach 😩

Attitudes need to change but everyone on the coach is a ....

Russell and all the supporters club volunteers do a fantastic job, they were certainly worthy of a mention by ST. At least the chairman saw past that agenda in his speech on the pitch when he did thank them all. Time to move on.

13! You literally sum up what it is like being on the coach... Thanks to Thommo we have owners, thanks to the supporters club we have 30 moaners at each away game.
