Some of you people have no idea, this is the best football we have watched at St Andrews since Bruce's second season in the Prem. With the like's of Dugarry and Forssell.....
We are playing nice fast football, on the ground which is suppose to be how its played...................
Fehey went forward last night, Burke took players on and Redmond was a breath of fresh air down the left..............
Just need to get the strikers shooting straight.
But come on stop moaning,be thankfull we still have a club to 'Love'and watch,at the moment.

People have gotten out of the habit of going. We need to get these people back, and the only way I can see this happening is by those of us that are going literally dragging them down there. Hopefully this will get the momentum and they will start coming again

they're still in the habit of going to the glory games. Wembley, europe, top 6 (prem) etc

last night proved pricing is a cop out. its more than that

Let's be honest the football is @@@@.

Whatever the other legitimate reasons for not being there if we were playing exciting free scoring, fast flowing football and whipping the opposition with a realistic chance of going up and the prospect of exciting signings in a few weeks I can categorically assure you there would be a lot more people there.

However, we are a debt ridden club where the loyal supporters have no idea what is going on or where the club is going with hard working but average at best players many of whom clearly don't want to be here (and probably won't be come January) playing some dire football against poor opposition.

We're in a recession, the weather's @@@@ and my missus is going through "the change"!

Merry @@@@@@@ Christmas!

:banghead:

is this the wind up post of the day or the week or the month or the year

the football is better than anything ive witnessed for many many years,the crowd is poor and the atmosphere is worse than under the Alex McLeish..why i ve absolutely no idea and couldnt really care beacuse if the attendance was only 2 people and that is me and my old man sat watching the blues thats enough for me.Anyone who doesnt want to go..dont go..anyone who goes and wishes they hadnt should have stayed at home.I get the impression most people dont actually want to watch the blues they are only interested in who they are playing against.

Bored of Blues Fans and excuses and moans about everything and anything

Damn good post

I agree with this to a certain extent.

But say they charged a fiver for adults and kids for a quid last night, obviously a lot more would go...

Then say the big games (Europe, knock-out games and top 6) they charged full whack for those (say £30+), then I think it would be a lot easier to see the gap between important matches vs. cheap tickets.

Its the same crowd Albion or Stoke would have got for this type of fixture in the middle of this kind of fixture pile up.

Worth bearing in mind the last time we played Burnley in the CC there were 500 Burnley fans and 28'000 Blues fans in a virtual sell out.

Burnley won that game and then Barnsley beat us at Oakwell in front of 7'000 Blues fans.

We have a far weaker squad than last season but a better manager I agree, but this squad would be relegated in the Prem.

If we all pay £5 and kids for a quid we would be watching lonees fron Walsall and Port Vale.

Butland and Redmond would have already been sold.

But they arent playing in the Prem and they wont be playing in the Prem, so that statement is just ridiculous, athough I'd love to see what you have to say if we beat a Prem team in the cup.

I actually don;t think it would have made a great difference tbh

Just an observation, the games are coming thick and fast. I think we have had 11 home games already - and it is only mid-November. I read on here that money is extremely tight for a lot of people and 11 games in 12 weeks is a lot of shelling out.

The club should realise this and throw in a £5 adult + £1 child two ticket deal for a game such as Burnley where it can be predicted that the attendance will suffer. And let's be honest we have these extra game through success, so the club should look on it as a positive.

The lack of attendance for certain games has always been there, and there are all sorts of reasons for it. In the 70s, I used to go home and away, but there were always games I didnt go to for any amount of reasons. Money, work, mates not going, being bored, weather, the opposition. Its no different today, except I do believe overall its seems more expensive.


Having read that back, I hope you dont think I was being defensive :)
