Pliny Harris 4,109 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 They've deleted the announcement tweet I've noticed, although the online site article remains. Deliberately avoiding the fans. Link to post Share on other sites

Bobbins 1,369 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Ridiculous decision. No thought given to the supporters of the club, the board have had some unfair stick before but with decisions like this they really can't complain. They're bringing it all on themselves. About time the club stood up for our own interests and gave supporters some consideration. Link to post Share on other sites
Greggs 1,729 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 There are many knock on effects to this as well.  1. the weather could effect more games leading to yet another huge fixture pile up for us. 2. if we perform in the FA Trophy we could be forced to throw the trophy to not have more postponed league games, or we could be forced to pick one league or cup. 3. with a fixture pile up the chances of us making a concerted effort to make the playoffs will be incredibly difficult if not impossible.  I'm still thinking about it and i still cant understand how this has happened.  I tried to see if Bosomworth was on Facebook he isn't, not surprisingly he isn't, must have struggled with registering bit, so i've e-mailed Pete Stagic to see if he can provide an explanation, i'm not expecting a reply though,  Link to post Share on other sites
Shaytrev 3,171 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 He has shot himself in the foot with this one. Perhaps he wanted a day in Fleetwood. Link to post Share on other sites
Shayite432 128 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Are we to assume that Aspin was in favour of this decision to postpone as we have 4 games in 10 days, which eases our schedule in the short term? Link to post Share on other sites

(Not) Halifax Town FC 2 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Flea, I don't know you to talk to but,now stand up show how fed up and pissed off you are- I hear you have not missed a game for a few years! Spent hundereds of hard earned cash- well go on miss both games v Gateshead- they don't care about us the fans- we both went to Torquay- well no way am I supporting the board on this one! They don't give a shite about us swapping days at work to attend games! They don't care son! Don't let them win this one. Link to post Share on other sites

I would be very suprised if Aspin agreed to the game being called off. Link to post Share on other sites
townmad 920 Posted December 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I can't see NA wanting it off, it would ease the fixtures a tad but it would be a good time to play them with their cup game coming up. Link to post Share on other sites
bernie winters 40 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I've had time now to give it a coat of thinking about. Its obvious, Gateshead have a big big money man behind them. Have palms been greased ? Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Vincent 1,153 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 BOD show true colours. Pack up and leave this club to somebody who has a genuine care and passion for the club. Don't care about the heart and some of OUR club, never have and never will. They deserve an 800 crowd on Saturday and I tirade of stick from the few that do turn up. Link to post Share on other sites
max'n'paddy 15 Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 What made this whole thing even more farcical is the "official" twitter site tweeted at 3.48pm "Breaking news at 4pm" as though it was some sort of exciting new signing, not a preverbial kick in the nuts to the supporter.
