Springfield Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 43 minutes ago, Caractacus Potts said: I agree that season tickets might well be just as high but having as others have pointed out there has been mitigating circumstances that may have helped that, particularly the novelty of fans being allowed back in grounds. With a general apathy setting around the club can we really afford to test that resolve by sticking with Rennie? Someone touched on this earlier, and there’s no doubt after the horrid Covid and the restrictions it was an escape for many to get back to football. Times have certainly changed, there’s at least two town centre pubs happy to put the games on now, and fans can now pay and watch from their home. The impact I suspect is not going to have any detrimental effect on the clubs finances, could be a positive for many clubs. The real worry for me and it’s been since the turn of the year, there’s a considerable amount of fans that have simply not attended. You’d be a fool not to notice the increasing gaps across the two stands. Many have given up and unless there’s positive changes, I suspect the drop in ST uptake will be far larger than some are predicting. ST intake is one of the critical/main streams of revenue, I genuinely hope this is not taken for granted….. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ecosse83 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Season tickets will fall a good bit if Rennie stays in charge. He just isn’t inspiring at all. I stopped my season ticket a few seasons ago but a few of my mates still have them and they feel the same way as me, probably still go to some games but PATG only 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Dick is also a very successful businessman so I’m sure he’s well aware that everyone is different and needs a different style of leadership and motivation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely it’s been a graveyard for the club before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes certainly would, had the pleasure of watching him in his final couple of seasons, one of the best forwards of that era. Great finisher and nice guy. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and you can see clearly that the Sargent Wilson style sheerin and bloody Rennie appear to employ isn't working with our lot. They need a manager that will put a rocket up them that's obvious to anyone FFS. Jesus wept you just want a manager that says please guys play a bit better if you don't mind. The best managers praise when needed and give them high hell when they are not pulling their weight. The managers that have won this league in recent years all do that . I certainly wouldn't like to be in a changing room with dick when he starts off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferguson still does talks at harvard on motivation but his methods are out of date you say. The right managers mix it for the right moments. What do you think the players need then? More of the old I wish I was better stuff and the players are a great bunch of lads they're brilliant in training which has got us mid table in league one and getting pumped by Airdrie . Take me back to the 90s tomorrow when we had a side playing electric football run by a manager who knew when to scream and shout at the players when necessary and not this dross we have to accept every sat.

All the focus is on Rennie but what part is Miller playing in this? @Springfield asked my why I still backed Rennie and it's because I am advocating evolution rather than revolution. Do we need a more experienced first team coach perhaps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
