1) How do you know that?
2) Believe me, PT, after buying my ticket for 63 years, IMO I have a "stake" in the Club
3) It's never stopped him before.

1) I put running the club above answering a fan question
2) You can feel that way but that's no different to shopping at Asda for 63 years. Still a customer. Don't get me wrong, I'm invested emotionally in the club too after 40 odd years and have sunk a fair bit of money in, but it doesn't give you any decision making rights.
3) That I agree with. It is as good as it is bad.

But some of the other posters on the thread are also correct about visibility & absence dependent upon results.

The stake is emotional, PT. Hence the parentheses around the word "stake".

No fan, true supporter or not, has a right to verbally abuse a player or a Director in such a way, especially not in front of his family & children!

These idiots are the same ones who would cry foul if anyone spoke to them and there families in the same way. These people are utter trash, but society is full of them and always has been, what you do about it I don’t know to be honest.

I agree 100% Pop Tart. Whatever comment the club management/staff make on here, some people will just give them grief.

he should never really come on here at all even in good times - I actually find it quiet weird he is on here taking us on for our stupid comments - just get on with running the club .

I personally wouldn’t use forums etc to engage with fans as it’s a recipe for disaster & their own mental health, but I can see why some wakey fans think MC should. He was happy enough to come on & have his ego stroked when things were going well so it’s not unreasonable to expect him to face the music, to some extent, now.

agree totally he ahs taken me on numerous times - why he bothers with me I have no idea - but now where has he gone - with you guys are saying the same things I have been all year?

I noticed this morning, that someone had posted something on the Northstanders facebook page.

Reading it, it would appear that there is a drinking culture within the club.

If true, given the hard work that people have put in behind the scenes, such as MC, JM, CC and previously CB, this is unacceptable, and you really have to feel for them.

Which Northstanders page? I have seen 2 different ones, last post on one was 2016, the other 2018.

I only know of one page WakeyTrin.

However, it would appear that whoever posted it, as since taken their post down.

Certainly makes you wonder though, given the recent deterioration in performance
