I've been generally trying to avoid this thread, as I have a real gut feeling that this whole scenario stinks.
Whether I'm being remotely reasonable or rational is moot, but I think it will be to the ultimate detriment of the club.
Families are getting shunted and shafted for this, and that means kids, the lifeblood of our club's future. This is going to be a tough season, so I think the club should be doing everything it can to ensure that it isn't an easy decision for folk to opt to stay away. When people stay away, it is more likely that they won't bother coming back.
As I say, I reckon it stinks. It stinks of short-termism. I very much hope I'm well off the mark.
