Does tonight finally put to bed the long peddled myth that Roland Wycherley is a safe pair of hands? He's anything but a safe pair of hands!
I'm absolutely gutted beyond belief what he's been allowed to do to our football club practically unchallenged.
I'm so glad I'll be able to stand tall with a very small handful of others in time and say I was on the right side of STFC history.

Very miffed with the Season Ticket news. Going to be 400 pounds I reckon. And for the football we've seen this season isn't going to encourage me to renew.
And if its true that the chairman and his mate have put money in, will they need repaying before that 25 pounds extra goes anywhere near the team.
Fan card and pick and choose 10/15 games I reckon next season. Have a break from the negative dull football.

Why do people keeping lapping up every sound bite as gospel? The club, and the chairman in particular can't have it all ways. 1) RW is financially bailing out the club = He is not a safe pair of hands. 2) The club is fine and self sufficient = He is a safe pair of hands. It's one or the other, it can't be both.

Well that was far more of an event than I expected it to be, with a lot of noteworthy comments coming from both Moore and Dooley. Nice to have some level of clarity in some areas (eg Moore saying he doesn’t get involved on a match day) and a bit of detail on the transfer plans, but all the stuff about the finances is an absolute mess and brings far more questions than answers. I don’t even know where to begin with it.

Fan card and pick and choose 10/15 games I reckon next season. Have a break from the negative dull football. The only way I can see myself renewing at the moment is if there’s a change of ownership. We’ve been told tonight that even what we currently have now is unsustainable and unaffordable, so if the ownership and finances remain the same it’s frightening to think what we’ll be going into next season with. If I don’t renew it’ll be with a very heavy heart and the first time in about 15 years, but the disillusionment is that high at the moment. And that’s even before considering the on-field offering.

Thank you to everyone who attended tonight and being so open with your questions 👍 Very very impressed by Micky Moore almost head on responce to all questions, answered everything and where Brian would have asked for cameras to stop etc just said things, we've waited how long for news on the injured loan players, he just came out with it, same with signings and why the Crystal Palace lad isn't here yet, same with the wolves lad. Wasn't combative, listened and answered fairly. I think Ollie W from the Star got plenty of news stories!

I appreciate you asking the question, I'm not sure why you've launched into some sort of attack on me? I'm just putting across my opinion on the chairman and pointing out he can't have it all ways.

Thanks again for asking my question, I do appreciate that, however sometimes some things are more important 👍

I wasn't there but was following a few people on Twitter, here are some of the points which stood out for me. Happy for anyone to correct anything if they feel this wasn't quite correct.
Udoh has not handed in a transfer request, expressed no desire to leave & contract negotiation are ongoing Fraser is still on the cards but is dependent on Wolves bringing in someone else Looking to bring back black tie end of season awards Looking to hold events (eg concerts) at the ground O'Brien was due to stay at Sutton but not sure due to change of manager. We are paying 25% of his wages Finnigan, Fleming & Thorpe have left. Ongoing discussions on Phillips Roland & Montgomery are financially supporting us, negotiations ongoing with two investors Moore has no control over matchday tactics, subs, etc. Moore said first 6 months have not been at required level, not consistent enough Taylor has final say on any signing Moore is still backing Taylor but has told him things need to be better (Saturday was dreadful). Ultimately its the chairman's final decision Our budget is in the bottom 6 or 7 of the league Season tickets expected to rise next season

Was any justification given for the planned increase in season ticket prices? Ever-increasing prices for an ever-worsening product is complete madness.
We really are going backwards in terms of attendances. We’ve now got the 19th highest attendances in the division, and we’ll honestly, be lucky to have a thousand season ticket holders next season.

Ie how many places have we left to be filled coming in?

The supporters are out there, you need to engage them. What about three year season tickets for £1,000 on a payment plan? We need to box clever! Very dangerous times for the club if we drop below 2,500 ST holders.

Decent game, thought we played well in parts. Did you? Crowd were brilliant, something we need to take advantage of moving forwards, we have to find new ways of growing the home crowd to 6,500+. Bums on seats = money, security and further ambition.

Regarding Roland, it's one or the other, it can't be both, he's either: - A safe pair of hands who has looked after the club. Or he's: - Not a safe pair of hands and is bankrolling the club. I'll repeat again, IT CANNOT BE BOTH!
