Obviously the marketing’s no good (if Bolton advertise in our local paper and we don’t, something’s going wrong), and some on here are suggesting you could be in town and not even know we were playing Man Utd, which is pretty dire. But the real reason our attendances have fallen off a cliff is staring Whelan in the face.
You can’t go on forever selling our prized assets. A team containing Heskey, Palacios, Valencia and Cattermole (perhaps one managed by Steve Bruce, with one eye on Europe) would have been worth another 2,000 on the gate. People know a lack of ambition when they see one. And, while getting Bobby in might prove to be a masterstroke in the long term, players recruited from the likes of Swansea City are simply not going to get bums on seats.
I agree with you there, I think the club could be better off in someone elses hands, and i feel that will happen soon, Lets be honest whelan hasnt give wafc the ground for nothing,
