Sorry, you have always been OK, to be fair, so I shouldn't tar you with the same brush as others.

There was once a chap skybluefed,
In sixfields he'd never be seen dead,
But offered an arsenal ticket,
He threw down his picket,
And went to the emirates instead

I get what you say. No problem mate. Most of us are on edge because of what is happening with our club and the uncertain future. It is easier for me because I watch from a distance. Also makes it harder though. At the end of the day.......this bit pinched from Jezza who my wife loves watching.............we all want the same. The problem is we are left guessing most of the time.

Not the remotest chance of that i'm afraid. I wouldn't even go to Wembley "if we got there" if we still had
the same owners. Liked your verse though.

No bosses about so I just hope I have a reception for my phone where I am stuck fixing machinery when it goes wrong. The machine I work on is about the length of the average street so can be kept busy sometimes.

Click to expand...

This is exactly what I'm talking about, 'common decency', what the hell is that meant to mean? I go to Sixfields, not because I feel it's the 'decent' thing to do and I don't think boycotting is the 'decent' thing to do. Common decency is subjective, it means different things to everybody. This is why threads like this are nonsense.

Anybody who supports sisu in any way after this latest news of them suing a CHARITY, need to take a severe
look at themselves and their morals.Any organisation that falls to the level of sisu are not worthy of support

be there though.

Would not giving them your money, make a difference to you?

Again the Higgs sued Sisu, if the club want to counter sue that's up to them. I hope it doesn't end up in court as it's more fortunes wasted all round but if the Higgs have done nowt wrong then they've got nothing to worry about.

Whilst I would love to do this ... the reality is you have season ticket holders that for all the right reasons, would lose out if they didn't get to use them ... I'm not a season ticket holder, but whilst I'd love to take action ... it has to be something we could do ... like boycott the Arsenal game away ... its on the TV in any case ... don't turn up to that.

What my problem is astute (and this isn't a personal attack on you as such but as the group of people you represent) is being told what I can and cant do when it comes to watching the team I support. If I chose to go to Sixfields I should be able to walk in there without having people calling me a Scab or whatever! Who the fuck are you lot to say what someone can and cant do??

If you walk into Sixfields who calls you a scab?

This is a Civil case different to Criminal how many times do you hear of neighbour disputes about fences etc going on and on with both parties not backing down and almost bankrupting themselves? It doesn't matter who is right you know which side will carry on :thinking about:

It's an interesting point "No such thing as morals".

Would imply it's OK to rape kids, cos you know decency is different things to different people. In fact in some cultures this was decent.

Decency, morals, whatever have always been determined by the culture or society you find yourself in. If most people think it's indecent, it's indecent. You can have a problem with the system, but you can't deny it exists. Now if you want to do something most around you find indecent that's your lookout, but surely complaining that people tell you they think it's indecent is silly?

Don't care what you do to be honest, but I see no reason why people can't state how they feel about your actions. Freedom of choice doesn't mean freedom from criticism.

Sensitive bunch Sixfielders

I have wondered at that. The only references I see to those that go to Sixfields as "scabs" are actually by people who go to Sixfields.

I can only assume they do it so as to appear as victims in an effort to ease their guilt

Everyone here automatically assumes that just because the Higgs are a charity that they cannot possibly be wrong - lets go collect money for them etc... what if they were in the wrong? Now we all know that some part of this agreement stated costs to be paid by Sisu if the deal collapsed, but clearly Sisu have a counter claim. Sisu didn't instigate this legal action (for a change) butare not allowed to defend themselves against the claim when they are sued because it is a charity!?

The point of a court case is to determine who is right and who is wrong - innocent until found guilty and all that, yet Sisu are already convicted by the court of opinion. I couldn't give a fuck about Sisu tbh but there is always 2 sides to every story. /endrant

HIGGS are suing SISU in this case not the other way round as your article states, SISU has to defend the case by counter claiming! Why is HIGGS suddenly now suing SISU they have had nearly two years to do this, fucking PR wagon in full flight i tell you uits all Dog Shit just to divide and smoke screen the real issues

FFS, if you were owed £30K and had waited two years for your money, wouldn't you try and sue the bastards?

Remind me to ask you for a loan one day.

The term has been used many times by different people on here. Along with "scum" and a few other choice phrases. I'm sure you know that.

I think you'll find the lovely chap who wants them to die in a car crash is a frequent user of the term.

I think I'll be popping along to Sixfields soon and believe me I never feel guilty about anything.

Of course they are and they will get their day in court (and maybe, just maybe, proved right) but did they really need to "counter sue" a charity, fo what amounts to less than one games extra income they could have made by playing at the Ricoh instead of Sixfields ?

Over the past couple of months my standing/viewpoint regarding this has changed.

I've never been a SISU supporter but had never held them 100% to blame for our predicament. I still believe other parties have to shoulder some of the blame.

Previously if an individual wanted to watch Coventry City in Northampton then so be it. I had no qualms whatsoever.

However with the latest news regarding them suing The Higgs Trust I can no longer support people who willingly and knowingly put money in our owners pockets.

As Astute has suggested, I think the time has come for a complete boycott of Sixfields.

A sad sad day in the history of my beloved club
