This is it. Everyone keeps going on about stability but there fuck all we have seen that suggests we had it in the first place. "Canny keep sacking managers" aye, but doesnt mean we need to stick with one thats clearly in over his head.
I think you are right but I also think the writing has been on the wall for a while as to which direction we were heading. Burrows going was a sign of things to come.
Spending the window clearing the dross options we had in order to make space and free up cash only to sign heehaw would be up there as one of the most embarrassing things weve done in recent times.
In before a last-minute panic buy of an absolute nae user.
Its quite mad that not only is he getting away with that stat, but there's folk that actually think it's OK. Feels like an episode of the twilight zone.
Soooo how many of our summer signing do we have left?
This is a fucking horrendous look for the recruitment team. Absolute confirmation that the entire summer window was a waste of time, money and could cost us our position in the league.
the problem with that though is, other than someone thats already a fan of the club, who in their right mind is going to plough their money into a club that they dont even own when they can just go buy up a club, own it, and do the same thing?
I mean thats basically exactly what I said in the post above the one you replied to. But my point is that there are new fans out there that can be marketed to. The question is the only of reaching out to them via A list celebs? or is there a way of reaching them that hasnt been tapped into yet? Rather than trying to win the lottery like Wrexham we should be looking to find a way of replicating the outcome they have had in the rise of their fan base without having to follow the same route. We suffer the same problem they had in that we have more fans of the old firm clubs and of clubs from down south around us than we do Motherwell fans, can we convert them the same way Wrexham has? Can we find a way to appeal to those that currently dont have an interest in football at all?
On that side of things it is quite amazing what the right kind of marketing can do. If you look a the growth of Wrexhams fan base it shows you it can be done, albeit its taken for a couple of A listers and a disney doc to do it. You can be sure Wrexham fans before teh take over thought the same way we do in terms of fan base and club size but whats happened to them proves that there are fans out there that can be marketed to, you just need the right way of connecting with them.
