Fantastic video this, really sums up the passion.
I live near Swansea and back in around 2002 they were pretty much where we are. Club was bankrupt, just got rid of a crook of a chairman and some local business men stepped in but it looked bleak as they had to win on the final day of the season to stay up. They beat Hull and stayed up and now look at them.
I remember the protests, the save our club marches that ultimately saw the chairman there resign, they re claimed their club and I firmly believe and back this movement within my own club of Southend United. No pro Ron supporter on here could convince me he is anything but in this for himself. MM was the wrong appointment, several clubs around us had made the same mistake and have got rid, Barrow, Scunthorpe, Stevenage, Grimsby and all of those have moved up the table or gained more positive results of late, our chairman does not care... non league doesn't stop his dream but it creates nightmares for the thousands who love this club, the loss of work for some of those at the club and an impact on the community too.
We live in strange times because of covid so marches/ protests and the like cannot happen but I hope that as a fan base we can rally round and save our club.
