End of season awards party cancelled (3 Viewers)

[Perennial Lurker]

because the team are doing well

if we didn’t make the playoffs we wouldn’t have sold 24k season tickets

Hope it doesn’t happen but if we finish mid table we won’t have 24k season tickets next season

fans make the club. if you ever been on a pre season with the city or an awards dinner you’ll know the connection with fans and players was great

if we lose that it will be a shame

short memories a lot of people on here

first one I attended was 2008 at the Ricoh

at least we now know why they've binned it off, surprised it took them that long!

 

[David O'Day]

Yeah, I bet. Well, it’s a good story. I’m not sure I’d have wanted an angry Aaron Gunnarson trying to prove he was POTS by punching me in the toilets of the Colly.

If it makes you feel any better my mate knocked Cobi Jones flat on his back on the dance floor of Mr Gs by drunkenly stumbling into him.

The bog troll split everyone which is actually the best part of the story

aww you annoyed I made you look silly on the other thread

anyone applauding having no awards dinner doesn’t look at the bigger picture

many present are businesses which supported cov when they needed it

like I said. many have short memories on here and be careful what you wish for

 

[Balli001]

it’s more transparency. if the club had no intention they should have said. again it’s the fans being lied to

similar to the Portugal week

I was told back in may it was booked. they didn’t mention anything. poor form imo

Did they ever announce there would be a date for the awards show... no. Not a lie then. They have gone on a training trip to Portugal. They dont have to announce everytime they are training and where to do they? They clearly want a peaceful trip away without hangers on like you distracting them from that.

 

[David O'Day]

why is it bad that the didn't "announce" a preseason training trip where they clearly don't seem to have any games set up and they wany to be left in peace?

 

[Nick]

I got an invite to Portugal for a few beers to celebrate the awards.

Didn't anybody else?

 

[Balli001]

Because all the hangers on and brown nosers couldnt go and get their annual fix thats why

 

[Evo1883]

Think the correct player won player of the season so well done to Jack rudoni

Yeah, Vik has offered to put a load of his Arsenal signing bonus behind the bar.

hangers on? Behave

I knew the hotel they booked in May if I really wanted to be a ‘hanger on’ I could have but no point If no football

fact remains when you do things to stop fans being part of the club it’s a slippery slope especially when the recent success was built on the said foundations

many fans attended the awards dinner and pre season tour when it wasn’t ‘fashionable’ nothing hanger on about that

Jack did

 

[David O'Day]

At least for them there is usually some kind of game but this looks like it's a big of warm weather training and bonding

 

[AOM]

Only player to come close imo was Grimes and he only had half a season

clubs in a good place and I cant see this altering anything

 

[GIMOC]

football fans are very fickle

 

[Evo1883]

football fans are very fickle

I wont argue with that

 

[Perennial Lurker]

We're doomed mate
Doug King is running us into the ground

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Right thing to do. Players got their holidays due to late season finish and now concentrate on pre season.

Fed up of the shit season starts under Robins because the players were never fit.

Currently the players not going to be very fit with only 3 games currently lined up

 

[David O'Day]

Currently the players not going to be very fit with only 3 games currently lined up

they'll add more games if needed

 

[GIMOC]

they'll add more games if needed

bit late in the day when only 4 and half weeks left and most teams have games lined up already

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

That remains the case regardless of whether we have an end of season awards or not.

The club is currently in its best place in over 20 years.

 

[Briles]

Hint of sarcasm in my post mate

Christ that was subtle

 

[David O'Day]

bit late in the day when only 4 and half weeks left and most teams have games lined up already

ok if you say so, they can easily already have behind closed doors games set up

don't make everything a weird tantrum about Doug King

 

[KNSB]

The clubs relationship with the fans has never been better, and its why we have broken season ticket sales records.

Again with these disgusting false accusations again.

 

[GIMOC]

wouldn’t disagree but what’s the reason?

because the club under robins and Dave boddy grew and the fans made a massive part of that along with the club

some fans saved the club

like I said, short memories on here

king won the lottery with what he inherited (down to Hamer and Vik sales) and joining in when the team made the playoff final

but like starmer has made many u turns and mistakes and making more at the min

Even by your odious posting history that is utterly pathetic

 

[CovveeBreak]

been going on for years way before robins

first one I attended was 2008 at the Ricoh

poor from the club but not surprised

club now don’t care about fans. The bond the club grew with the players and fans is slowing disappearing and we are ending up like the big clubs who hold the fans in so little account

Absolute nonsense

 

[GIMOC]

Even by your odious posting history that is utterly pathetic

go on. What part isn’t true?

we wouldn’t be where we are now if some fans didn’t save the club

boddy and robins rejuvenated this club and moments like pre season tours and awards dinners accompanied that

it’s a fact

 

[CovLad94]

Do many clubs even do after season awards evenings anymore?

Such a stupid tantrum over a relatively meaningless event .
Mind you if you and your puppet master have an agenda against the new owner then I suppose it is understandable

 

[JSL]

Apparently not. Elite athletes shouldnt be going on piss ups
