You know what I'll stand by what I said. Grow up.
Reason why is because who the hell gives you the right to decide when people can spend their hard earned at the football match.
You might not agree with how Walton does things (even I don't agree with it) but it doesn't mean you can dismiss any points of view they have.
I have'nt been to an away match in years. Does it make me a part time supporter? Even if I haven't missed a home match in about ten years? No.
A supporter is somebody (anybody) who pays there money to watch their team, regardless of the amount of times they go.
Besides the reason why I said "grow up" in the first place was because you said "Id rather have who Chesterfield have because i support them* and that just sounds so immature.
Nobody can fault your enthusiasm pal but you can't go around with a holier than thou attitude. Get real for godsake!

WRONG!! That's a definition of a SPECTATOR. A supporter SUPPORTS the team get it! If you're still not sure there's a clue in the word SUPPORTer.

Wrong. A spectator is somebody who watches an event without any interest what the outcome is.

Wow! You've just made me look silly! :$. Read again pal. Or even read the post you've replied to. :-/




So when I go on holiday and there is a local game on and I pay to watch that game then I'm a supporter??? Lol

itsperfectly possible to support the club while at the same time have concerns about the immediate direction the club is taking.

Indeed it is possible that NOT asking quetions and raising valid concerns is unsupportive. The recent experience of a yorkshiremans tenure in the board room is evidence enough of this.

However, the current majority shareholder, CEO, ans subordinate staff and new outlook can negate most of these fears.

There is a `plan` in place. Its goal is Championship football in 5 years. We are now in year 2 of this plan. Panic and silly over reaction wont alter this plan.

Those who have a seat at the top table will be aware, far more so than us, of the goings on at the club. They will be asking questions of the managemant, and be raising concerns about the start to the season the club has had. Its in Dave Allens interests not to lose momentum and be relegated, its also in his interests that CFC do not go crazy and overspend - we have a balancing act to perform.

We will get there. Stop flapping.

I'd agree with pretty much all of that, especially the first two sentences. And for what it's worth i'm told questions regarding our recruitment - or lack of - are being asked at an elevated level.

It is blindingly obvious Shez in the main is recruiting ex players/colleagues, now this is fine if we progress. There will come the time when Shez's options are exhausted with this strategy and that his when the pidgeons will come home to roost. Championship management and all the bally-who that that brings will be a big test of our managers skills and the apparent problems that he has experienced of late only confirm my worries about little old Chesterfield being able to attract the better players.
