Just 580 last night!
Now I know Fisher are not exactly well supported, but after the exciting comeback on Saturday, surely 580 is a terrible disappointment on what was a decent night weather-wise.
The Board of Directors cannot afford to ignore the falling gates, and must look to what is the root cause, but of course they may not like what they discover.
More and more fans appear to be staying away from the Club completely disillusioned with the way it is currently being run, and these are not the "floating" supporters, these are the guys like TJ and Wayne who have supported the Club loyally for years and years, but have walked away frustrated by the actions of those in charge.
When will they do the right thing and walk away?

But that is the real question isn’t it, Davina? Why won’t they resign?
It cannot be because they genuinely believe they are serving the best interests of the football club because they are systematically destroying it.
It cannot be because they have answers to supporters’ questions (or the shareholders they are duty-bound to serve) because they steadfastly refuse to answer them – in particular to produce the club’s 2006/2007 and 2007/2008 accounts.
It cannot be because they are determined to drive the debts down, because with the HKL now closed, sponsorship and hospitality revenue is slipping through their fingers.
It cannot be because they exude a positive PR/media image because they allowed the club website to disappear.
It cannot be because they can stifle dwindling gates because other than ridiculously-outdated and disasterous 1970s / Life on Mars ‘gents treat yer wives’ Ladies Day dreamt up by a director who is not yet registered with Companies House, they appear to have no answers.
So what are the REAL reasons they are they hanging about? My guess is we won’t find out this side of administration or liquidation.
Of course all will be answered this week when DB “goes on the offensive”

well for what it's worth I was another stayaway City fan last night. I woke up on Monday morning with every intention of going to the game but as the day wore on I was thinking exactly where my £11 would go. Would it go towards the team? I doubt it. Would it go to reducing the debt? I doubt that too. Would it go towards a legal representative for Dave Boddy to hire in order to prevent a takeover? Yes, I think that would be the most likely destination for it.
For that reason I will also not be attending until Dave Boddy has gone for good.

I am only going because I have a season ticket - What's the point of me staying away when the club already have my money? I guarantee I will not be attending any cup matches unless there is a change in the boardroom and I will not be renewing my season ticket.
Like others who are staying away, I still wish the team and management (RD & CH) the very best.

tbh the only reason I went last night is thanks to the free passes we get through the Worcester Referees Society.
If I couldn't have gotten hold of one - I wouldn't have paid in and gone to it.
Therefore - can someone from the Trust drop me a PM or something - as I want to give the £11 I would have otherwise wasted to them

Talking of referees, are you available this weekend Croc? Perrywood AFC Under 18 at Neel Park Sunday 2.30? Our manager has also been trying to contact richieG but no joy yet.

Oh and I have boycotted the half time draw now too.
I always used to buy a ticket.

I've heard of several instances in other companies where directors and chairmen have dipped into funds of one of their businesses to pay off debts in another. They think that they can then pay back the money when things "go on the up". Of course they never do and all their firms go bust. I can't imagine this has happened at WCFC though.
Any news on the accounts yet?

I think IDIFF is a also run and needs to be put out to graze with the other four when the changes come,he as not got a clue when it comes to running a small time football club,so he is in at number five in the got to go list, so it will be DB in first place followed by who ever you want in 2- 3- 4 with IDIFF coming up on the rails in fifth,on second thoughts I thing he could be a knackers yard job.
