Where are these back to back victories going to come from? We've won 3 league games in 20 and are averaging less than a point a game. Plus the football we are playing is completely inept. We've given the rest of the division enough of a head start already, and some of the games coming up could be real 6 pointers come the end of the season. If we stick with Hyypia much longer we'll be cut adrift in the relegation zone and no manager with ambition would touch a job like this.

51+ points is generally the target but may be a bit more this season so say 55 points to stay up, we have 18 so we need 37 from our remaining 26 games so sooner or later we need to pick up a few wins or we are going to be needing snookers to stay up
I went to the Goldstone and worked overseas 82-95, when I returned I visited many different grounds, in '99 I returned to the fold and purchased a season ticket at Withdean and have held one ever since. As you all did I attended marches, wrote letters etc etc.
My Son's 8 & 11 have a season tickets.
I traipse over from Arundel for each match and spend a King's ransom on food, drinks and merchandise; I am seriously considering watching non-league football next season and saving the £800 on STHs, £300 on parking and another few bob per match for 3 pies, soft drinks and a beer. Does that make me a bad fan? To many yes, but you have to know what the person has done prior to Withdean, at Withdean and at The Amex and how they've supported the club to make that judgement surely?
The club, for me, is too remote now from me, the simple fan. I choose to take my money and spend 10% of it supporting my local non-league club.

As it is a tighter division this year - won't the number of points be less ?
The fans don't like to see the team playing poor football or losing - the board would have known that already. I don't suppose they like it either.

Maybe I'm too demanding and should doff my cap to the board and continue to pay top dollar for the lovely seat and view and try harder to get behind a team that seem to have given up coached by a man who can't even talk a good game let alone manage a team to do it. If the board think he's up to it who am I to question it? Stop questioning and continue paying eh?

Everything you say would be sound if the club were making a profit - the problem though is that it is making consistent losses.
There is a strong case to argue that if we are relegated then losses next season would actually be less than if we remain in the Championship.
Long term of course relegation won't improve our chances of getting to the promised land of the Premier League, the club's only real hope of ever returning a profit.
Yes and will be for the foreseeable future. Bloom knows we're going to be relegated but thinks we'll still attract 25k plus fans. He thinks as long as we attract these fans and the prices then everything is hunky dory. Bloom is living in wonder land.

I'm sure that Bloom thinks that losing 10m a season, even with 25k fans, is just great.
Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!
Primary data is fact
Case to argue? I don't think so with the "FFP" regulations that apply in League One.

Why would he be living in wonder land pal?
Championship wage bill £23 million
League 1 wage bill £10 million

On another note im bloody shocked he's not been sacked yet...Its blatantly clear hyppia isn't Upto it and his record is as poor as it gets anywhere bloody shocking.
It's your money, it's your hobby, complain if you like. But I wouldn't imagine the board aren't equally frustrated. I also think a lot of fans forget that although it is expensive, our entertainment is being subsidised.

A L1 wage bill would mean we would have to field a entire team of Forster-Caskeys

I would imagine JFC won't be anywhere near a league 1 team if it came to it. Same goes for dunk, march and LuaLua who will all get moves elsewhere.
So even if they made a decision to act today we can assume they will talk with Sami before a general announcement - may also have decided to wait until after Friday and see what the result is, most likely would be wait until Tony is back from Aus and look for a saviour to pull us out of relegation zone before end of the season .....
