Some great posts, a lot I agree with, on one of my favourite topics.

It would be a cardinal sin if they did but I can’t see the owners taking the fan base for granted. More pertinent the fan base need to remind themselves during the bumps in the road just what the owners have done and not take them for granted.

As mentioned mistakes are always going to be made by any ownership that is why a broader stand back and look approach is needed rather than more immediate emotional reaction a fanbase is accustom to.

The unprecedented and let’s be totally honest unimaginable attendance figures achieved by the club nowadays is predominantly down to the owners. I don’t see that they need advice on that score. It will drop, it should drop at times, but to what level.

Overall the football during their tenure has been as entertaining as I can ever remember, not this season at home, but overall home and away without a doubt. A concern yes but we shouldn’t forget the previous 5 seasons just because this season has been dull …. at home. Football fans will always migrate too and from attending matches based on results and entertainment levels that’s natural the difference is now we have more doing it because we have a far bigger fan base.

I agree being steady and sustainable in League Two is not acceptable for NCFC, it won’t be acceptable for the owners who are pumping in millions of pounds so near fear there for me.

The injury levels are unacceptable and need to be analysed (as much as any Particular player signing) and sorted asap as without doubt that has derailed our promotion ambitions as much as lack of proactive subs or lack of tempo.

The squad is missing some key elements and the recruitment team have , as always, a big important job. I trust them far more than previous models to get it right. They have to sort out our lack of physicality!

I hope the owners release the purse strings a little as when we go up they will have to spend a lot more than at this level to stabilise at League One level that’s for sure. But I ain’t worried about that not only are the Bros doing an undoubted good job and improved the club on lots of fronts they can also surprise as they have done with managerial appointments, player signings and off field investment. All which have been overall impressive.

At the end of the day us impatient fans need to remember it’s only our second season back at this level.


That was a party political broadcast on behalf of the Reedtz Bros (aka the best owners we’ve had for an age)
