Is SEO the right thing to do for the next month?

[Nottingham Valiant]

Genuine question and in no way a wind-up - can someone explain what continuing SEO will achieve between now and the EGM? We're literally on a knife edge, we may even go into admin before we have the chance to remove them at the EGM - what a disaster that would be?! If crowds turn up in numbers in the next few games then there is a better chance of there being a club to gain control of at the EGM. If the board remain after the EGM then I would fully support SEO.

 

In short, I think by continuing the SEO campaign for the next month is akin to cutting of your nose to spite your face.

 

Appreciate this is a controversial view but it is not meant to be provocative. Hope to see you all tomorrow.....

Fair question. Avoiding admin now may be like trying to turn or stop an oil tanker however.

[Stafford Valiant]

It will ensure the removal of the current board one way or another.

 

In my opinion it is therefore necessary.

I agree with you but can see a lot of people won't...

Removing the current board and replacing it with one with a proper, sensible business plan might make the taxman, and other creditors see we can do things properly. Step 1 is to pay that tax bill and prevent HMRC from driving us into administration. And having a few more fans paying at the gate will give us maore chance of doing that. Can see why some fans still won't turn up though, cos unless this board goes you are definitely throwing good money after bad.

Agree totally we must make it to EGM to rid the club of this filth, please all turn up tomorrow in numbers and we can do it.;)

How many extra people do you think will turn up.........the vast majority relented in October, its only the real hard core now that are left,and knowing what I know now I would be one of them but I was conned by Lloyd and Deakin

Care to explain why?

[BRIT1974]

Think admin is going to happen regardless, them idiots in power have made sure of that.

 

For me its a no brainer i signed up and i will remain staying away.

People feel that withholding their custom is their only way to strike back - effectively the board have disenfranchised the shareholders and this is the only way they feel they can take some power back. It may or may not be the right way but it is an understandable reaction.

I'm not putting my money into a club I don't trust and one that treats me with contempt, the board caused seo by being so incompetent and selfish , and they'll have to live with it.... Simples

I agree with this post totally. Turn up in force & get being the players. Avoid admin & the play-offs are a big possibility

[wolvesvaliant]

I don't believe that the board would spend the money wisely anyway. They would just siphon it out rather than addressing the outstanding bills. Starve em out

I think you are right in many ways - there's so many people vociferously SEO and anti board on here and out on the street, however, my thoughts are that a lot of these folk wouldn't go anyway, some just like a good moan. There are then as you say a handful of the hardcore.

 

I think what illustrates this would be our away attendences - it seemed hundreds were claiming in August that they would only follow Vale away but I don't think there has been any change in away followings from last year. Admittedly I don't have the figures but would be happy to be corrected.
