Think it was about time something was done about this, maybe disgruntled STH should start an action group of some sorts.

Renew. Don't renew. Nobody cares.

PS anyone got a West Ham ticket going spare
No... you can moan as much as you like but part of the terms and conditions when you signed up are that you take the rough with the smooth - or in our case the rough with the extra rough...Tubthumper said:

I cannot believe you've just suggested that.
What the f*** will that achieve?
We know it's shit -but we know why it's shit. We don't have a ground, there's bugger all money BECAUSE we are playing at Withdean.
Prices won't go up - yes the club do cock up often, but they aren't completely stupid.
I don't know what you'reproposing to do. Regarding the ticket, you know the product you're buying, you know deep down that really you shouldn't be expecting that much. Yes it's crap - but you weren't saying that when we were getting promoted from this league.
Have a moan now and then, but PROTEST? don't think so!

Why not - club might buck its ideas up as clearly it has lost the plot recently on various issues including the absurd relocation of the family stand last season and now the WHUFC cock up.
And if you read the program today an admission it was a cock-up.
What concerns me is there is little point in building Falmer if the club continues to employ commercially inept people who really have no clue how to sell a product.

I must take issue with that.
The overpriced but new improved bacon baguettes (made from real bread) are actually quite good.
I could get the same in the Soho for about £1 cheaper without the unexpected addition of fried onions, but they are not bad.
The coffee though is remarkably bad and is the reason I take a flask.

I didn't mean 'people', I meant YOU, personally, 'Beach Hut'. The fact that you're in the lucky-in-life positon to throw 4-5 hundred notes at the club in fuckin' FEBRUARY and feel trhe urge to bang on about it for the remaining 95% of the year is in no way noble. Pretty disgusting in fact IMHO. Got a lot more respect for thoser fans who scrape together twenty odd notes on a weekly basis.
You, personally, BEACH HUT, please stop making the term STH a term of abuse. Because YOU personally are making it so.

Balderdash of the highest order.
Called having the right to criticise where as others just accept things I won't.

We'll have to agree to disagree then. But most folks on here IMHO would actually WELCOME you not renewing if only to stop the now-constant whining. Take one step back andLtake a LOOK at yourself mate. Why so bitter? It's only football.

I take the rough with the smooth as long as I can see the club are being honest with me..but at the moment I do feel as though they are taking the cheap option at every opportunity with little care for the outcome.
One minute the club claim they are putting in bids for Dichio, Eastwood etc but we end up with a couple of non-leaguers from Essex.

There is no bitterness at all just a right to stick your head above the parapit and not accept things as they are.
Regardless of the tireless position we are in and yes Withdean is shit we all know that, the club is losing the plot in marketing a product to get bums on seats.
What concerns me is this mentaility from within the club has to change otherwise when we get the green light and Falmer starts being built we will never get the crowds in.
If the club cannot keep 4,000 STH happy what chance later on.
I am sorry to say this but the commercial arm of this club has absolutely no nous what so ever on getting bums on seats. Why not price seasons cheaper and have a few £10 days and kids for a £1 ?
I care for this club believe me but am just shit scared it is just falling apart at the seams through mis-management or over focus on Falmer.

No it does not Bakesy but sadly a lost revenue stream by the club possibly as you are not happy with what is happening ?
