New Supporters Committee

Not even "Bantz". Amateurs.

 

TLDR;

When we specifically invited members to our closed group to discuss confidential material, we didn’t technically specify that 17k fans couldn’t join.

**** off and stop being so emotional.

 

If they host 1000 of these per season, nearly everyone gets a go.

 

This statement literally says nothing.

I don't believe for one second that anything will change. Sure, they might give a few 'token' spaces at subsequent meetings away but the same old faces will be there every time and there won't be any meaningful engagement with anyone who doesn't toe the line.

 

Probably an unpaid intern.

 

Utter the magic words "Mogi Bayat" and you'll instantly find yourself outside Vicarage Road with no possibility of attending a fans forum ever again.

 

The club is an absolute disgrace. With 'Watford FC ticket swap excluded', how will they consider John's spare ticket at face value, following a last minute trip to Malaga?[/QUOTE]

Malaga is such a wonderful city. Totally mad when the Christmas lights are switched on.

Is it too early to talk about Christmas? And will we be down by then?

 

If anyone had any doubts as to how the hierarchy view the majority of the fanbase, the line 'initial emotive reactions' in the club's 'statement' should finally put them to bed.

 

I assumed you were joking until I read it. That's literally what it says!!! Which means a) Ucko and Mike Parkin have been lying to the fanbase about committee accessibility and b) Vicarage Road will no longer need urinals for home fans given how much piss has already been taken out of us. Many Watford fans will most likely never need to use a urinal again.

Also loved the bit about fans who 'happened' to be invited to the 1st meeting. Yeah, Scott just randomly bumped into them and invited them by chance. It's not like they are cherry picked, sycophantic mini-me's manipulated and gaslighted into manipulating and gaslighting the fanbase.

It's clear that the board view the fanbase with utter disdain and it looks like it's going to get a lot worse.

The best of the rest? Right now we are the 2nd worst of the rest!! Next season we won't even be part of 'the rest'. We are a club built on lies, dishonesty and very concerning financial practices.

 

are u?

 

If there were 14 people at the first meeting and there can only be 15-20 at future meetings, doesn't leave a lot of spaces for new people. And presumably they're not going to kick out the chosen few as that would defeat the supposed purpose of asking them in the first place (their "reach").

I genuinely think the original intention was just to keep it as a closed shop with the members not named, and we were just supposed to nod along, grateful that some anonymous fans had been invited into the inner sanctum.

 

A badly run club…with diabolical PR…who invite a select few to a secret squirrel meeting…without any thought about the knock on effect of the abuse those that attended will get who have to keep quiet or the ire from those not invited who actually care…and then a patronising mail to make things even worse

god I hate our club at the moment

 

What we need is a (Morocco) Mole to feed us back what goes on as Secret Squirrel battles with his arch enemy Yellow Pinkie (AKA Scott Duxbury)

 

or even better someone to surreptiously livestream an audio of the meeting as Scott hands out info sheets to the committee members with a cheery 'ok guys, here are your opinions'

 

anybody under the age of 50 would read your response as the mutterings of a mad man. But I loved that cartoon

 

No, it's referring to 'The Hornets Nest - the WFC Fan's forum.'

Your

 

Is that mekon foreheaded twerp Ucko involved in all this?

 

*your’re

 

Yore'

 

Is that a comic book reference RC? I’m stunned. I always assumed that you gave frightful beatings to comic book nerds as a child as opposed to reading them yourself.

 

Meeting One attendees ........

Can't wait for Meeting Two followed by Leak Two closely followed by Flounce Two.

With all the mock confessions and denials going on by various groups perhaps they could do some sort of 1984 Ministry of Love public confessions videos about how wrong they have been and how ultimately right the club have been and how they have our best interests at heart.

 

The forerunner of 'yesteryear'? No such periods exist now, didn't you know. Just ask Fuxbury.

 

Willthe Members of the committee be selling programmes on 30 April? It will be a chance to meet their public.

 

Na. Think he f***ed off to Cambridge United in 2016.

 

‘In 1881..’
‘Be careful what you wish for’
‘Small fish in a large pond’
‘Our journey is far from over’
‘Have a look at Malky Mackay..and..Gareth Ainsworth’
‘Ernie Mackenzie’
‘Gammons Lane’

Fabulous windup. Fair play.

 

“Be careful what you wish for” is just a phrase to defend the indefensible.

The mantra of a person who stays in an utterly failed relationship because they can’t bear the thought of being alone.

 

It was 'Gammons Lane' that really did it for me.

 

Did anyone listen the clubs first official Twitter Spaces thing earlier?

Didn’t catch it but the general feeling I’m reading is that it was bad - and that from all the people chosen to speak at random, the usual suspects were all chosen (Ucko etc), who have subsequently tried to insist it was random….despite the fact that it was hosted by someone who is regularly on WD18.

I can see the clubs intentions here are good - but they really could do with breaking this suspicion about only engaging with a select few.
