Matt in all honesty I don't really care if he wants to take that line.[b said:Quote[/b] (Matt the Shrimp @ Nov. 20 2006,16:27)]Don't sh*t stir, Scott. Dave is allowed to come on here and express his views...[b said:
I know that we are working to try and give you all a successful and financially viable Football Club.
If some think the only way to do this is to win games then, great, I ask the question of how do you get this success if their is not a basis to finance it?

That's great stuff if he didn't cost the club any money.[b said:
He isn't my cup of tea personally but it was definitely worth it to attract youngsters etc as Scriv says. Surely if the cost of the investment is zero any tickets sold over what would have been is money in our pocket?

What about for example going round schools looking for kids who can entertain with their footballing skills then showing that at half-time?Their mates would all come to see them ply their tricks and the crowd would love it.Plus all the kids would go home and practice their moves.And me
Prizes given to the biggest cheer.
Just a thought.Aint got to be about spending bundles

Working for the club has alienated you as a supporter Dave

It's certainly something we have done before, having small sided matches prior to games with the local kiddies football sides.[b said:Quote[/b] (shrimp and two veg @ Nov. 20 2006,16:33)]What about for example going round schools looking for kids who can entertain with their footballing skills then showing that at half-time?Their mates would all come to see them ply their tricks and the crowd would love it.Plus all the kids would go home and practice their moves.And mePrizes given to the biggest cheer.

However, the manager (and the groundsman) isn't a great fan because of the damage to the pitch it causes.

Can’t quite believe I’m making my first post on ShrimperZone on Chico but nevermind!
On the whole I think that it probably was worth getting Chico in. There were plenty of kids watching him and joining in so at least they enjoyed themselves. He clearly wasn’t aimed at anyone using this forum so where’s the harm? Arguably the Bluebelles are a waste of time and money too but I don’t see you all calling for them to be scrapped! I wonder why…
One thing I will say for Chico is that despite his appalling material his enthusiasm and spirit were unbreakable and credit to him for that. Something that our team will need if we have any hope of staying up!

Personally I think X factor sucks and have no interest in any of the 2 bob shockers that are vomited up by the programme.
However plenty of people do love it and if the club is willing to be innovative and try to cash in on it's success to try and attract people to Roots hall on a Saturday afternoon then that's fine by me.
If you don't like the fella then stay in the pub until he's finished wailing. No need to get het up and start having a go at the PR bods at the club.
The beamback failed thru lack of support, Manure tickets were hard to get hold off because everyone wanted one and the same goes for Spurs. The club can't please everyone all of the time and to be honest some of the people on here would slag them off irrespective of what they did.
Just remember that 3 years ago we were second from bottom and we were all frightened that the club was on it's last legs.
Today we're in rude health and we're getting the sort of crowds we could've only dreamed off 3 years ago. Credit for that lies with the management, players, Chairman and those who work behind the scenes. I know which scenario I prefer and it ain't struggling to survive!!!
