I'm with P86 on this one, I buy a season ticket every year because I am a BUFC supporter. You will never get 1 JB00% agreement on a manager or players all you can do as a supporter is support. Some people are very critical of AM in a very subtle way I am sure they wish DG was still here but, he is not.
Agreed Tash, I support the club first, of course we all want success on the field & getting behind the players & manager when we're rebuilding is only going to help. I renewed my season ticket like others last week. The money in the kitty from season ticket sales may help with the budget for new players?
Yes there is plenty of subtle criticism of AM. Remember there was a "MURRAY OUT" thread running on here after about his first 7 games?? Many are still angry at the nature of DG"s departure & won't move on & fully support the new Manager.
As regards new signings: as others have said how can we compete with these full-time, moneybags outfits? I would point to Macclesfield in the league above to show we can very much do well. They had the Lowest budget in the conference last season. They flirted with the play off places all season, falling away in the last 6 games & ending 9th on 68pts. They got to the Trophy final & the 2nd round of fa cup.
Chorley are the example in our league, they were so close to promotion on an average budget.
Yes we are all waiting for marquee signings. But sometimes it's the ones who come in under the radar that are successful. Dayle Southwell unwanted at Grimsby, Ricky, Zak & Pidge likewise at previous clubs.
