Evangelos Marinakis And Co

Just bloody communicate!!!

Not asking too much surely.

What else do you want them to say?

Well they can start with season cards - and we can progress from there.
Not difficult.

How much longer will it be before spectators are allowed back into the Grounds?

The owners have showed faith and patience and supported their manager. Remember when people were begging for some continuity? Now you have your wish. Tick.

The owners have backed their manager with new signings many with Championship experience. Remember when we couldn't even afford to sign any players and we had to sell Bamford and Morgan? Then people were begging for players with experience in The Championship. Now you have your wish. Tick.

That decrepit eyesore called the Main Stand at the City Ground, it's going to be pulled down and replaced with a beautiful new modern stand. People have been grumbling about it for years and years. Finally you will get your wish. Tick.

But now people want the coach gone, so their wish has changed. The owners need to change in line with the people's wishes!

And then get criticized by the ones who didn't want him gone.

And then get criticized with hindsight by the ones who did want him gone if it doesn't go well :)

Maybe the club would benefit greater if it got rid of all of its so called ungrateful, whingeing, belly aching supporters and got itself a whole stadium full of new ones instead  :cool:

Just accept you can't please all of the people all of the time :)

Whoops.
Anyone translate?

So how in Gods name can the Club make a definitive decision on refunds?

What more could they do at the present juncture, other than offer a rolling refund for the people who want that option, or access to the games on line for the people who prefer that.

And there is also the Statutory Rights option for those who want to avail of that.

They are damned if they do and damned if they dont.

And do not forget that all EFL Clubs are under very intense pressure from the EFL not to give full refunds; they are demanding that the Clubs who can afford to give a refund support those who cannot.

It is also worth noting that the major beneficiaries of the on line streaming package are the EFL and not the Clubs

I get that - and agree broadly.
But the communication has been virtually non existent.
Regular updates - even with little to say - are preferable to blanket silence.
Someone needs to take responsibility.
Randall, Vrentzos, Owen et al have been conspicuous by their silence.
Simply not good enough.
Small things can go a long way in keeping supporters feeling part of things.
eg Reopen the shop - even with limited hours & limited access ( similarly to our neighbours down the A52 & A46 )

For signing da Costa and diakhaby I hope.

If he's guilty there is no way Nicholas Randall sticks around. Supporters are losing more and more patience...

Don't see why a chairman of a company has to resign if an employee gets banged up.

More the fact he's a respected QC. I doubt he'd want his name to be involved with that kind of stuff.

Well, with all the shenanigans that've gone on in Greece with EM, you'd imagine he'd want to stay well clear of him to but he hasn't. If the story is true it'll probably not get much interest here anyway, unless of course there's some club involvement or the club is implicated in some way.

I hope these are historical allegations...
