Totally agree, although I'll make an exception in Pigman's case :D
Feck off ;) :lol: You'll go anywhere as long as there is a bar :D

I agree about this AFC idea separating the wheat from the chaff as they say - there are some people who follow a team and others who really support it, the followers will drift away over the next 12 months I guess, we just have to hope we have enough real fans to make it viable, for what its worth, I think we have. 500 or so if we start well should be achieveable, no reason why more might not be tempted along if we do well.

:D I agree, the "cough" younger supporters don't know anything other than R&D, so they will become the core of the phoenix club's support for the future and if we can encourage new fans to come along (lower prices, shorter away trips etc) a gradual growth of the club, will be sustainable............I've got a feeling that the ride will be fun :D
