54_and_counting Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Strange that such a large proportion of sevco fans stayed away last season when they were playing second fiddle to Hearts. It's almost as though their fans are fair weather glory hunting scum or something. tbf the crowds were "disillusioned" about allys management long before hearts and pretty much the rest of the championship were embarrassing us, it was only a matter of time before the fans fucked off because of his awful style of football, the results inevitably played a part in it also, aberdeen have had a much bigger rise since the potential for a second place finish appeared, dont see you having a go at their "fair weather glory hunting scum" but again its expected tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

54_and_counting Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Long before hearts embarrassed you on day one? yup, trust me in the division below even though we went undefeated fans were beginning to f**k off, not show up etc, ST numbers meant crowds looked good but in reality they were shite fans were scunnered by ally after division 3, we gave him one more season and when the young boys got farmed out on loan or moved on, while we kept c***s like ian black, jon daly etc, a lot of the fanbase had enough and didnt renew remember there was no guarantee this season that it would be better given we barely spent a penny, but a new gaffer was all the difference and fans gave it a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for Rangers as it is for Aberdeen or anyone else. As Celtic are proving, winning most of your games doesn't mean anything to a good number of their fans, its how they are winning. Celtic above all in their situation should be doing more to keep their fans coming back and not just for their Euro matches, such as signing players who will entertain their fans, the wow factor which is currently missing instead there is apathy and a 'lets wait on Rangers getting up outlook before we try'.

Rednyella Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Topcat you're probably right. Rebranding myself may also help my rating as a poster as at present it seems I'm struggling. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, with football being a family sport now more than ever, its imperative that clubs entertain fans more than ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
