I have a strange feeling that this season will end up as a repeat of the season that Gould first took charge if the club.

Cheap signings (including 1 prolific goalscorer) meant they were pre season relegation favourites. Somehow they were 4th at Christmas before the dramatic slide and relegation was avoided on the very final day.

The natural position for this squad has to be lower half and the spiteful docking of points may end up being a real problem as the season drags on.

Personally I found last night a depressing experience when listening to it on the radio.

Something is going to ultimately have to give. If a slump happens and the club looks like relegation candidates I have a view that fans have to look at attending games. The club will return to the city or die anyway so any ownership agenda has to be deemed an irrelevance in the end. Going further down has to be seen as a catastrophic outcome and players need atmosphere and support.

Eventually if the going gets tough I will have to go to some games. Fans have to look at a bigger picture. Liquidation would be death in all but name and there comes a point where people have to cast aside their long term view and address the short term.

Yes we have to go to some games tim, that is why i will be at milton keynes with the true sky blue supporters, like at walsall. Where will you be, on your laptop trying to wind people up and not supporting the team. Supporters do not have to go to sixfields to support the team as all the away games i have been to there was more city fans than at northampton. This away support is what will keep them up.

Tim is standing up to a council trying to squeeze every penny out of us due to their slap hazard ways of running a business. Good post Tim!:claping hands:..Sorry Grendel.

I agree with the OPs first points regarding the 83/84 season, I was thinking the same last night.

Disagree about the last bit though. The bigger picture is to tell SISU in no uncertain terms that we will NEVER buy into this groundshare nonsense so you may as well sell up and fuck off. Or liquidate and let us start again in non-league. Something will have to give eventually, they can't sustain these losses forever. Its the only way we'll get our club back. IMO.
