    Serious question

    Are fans just an inconvenience to nelms or do you think he hates the support?

    I used to think he just held ordinary punters in utter contempt.....I honestly think he now hates the fans of the football club and would swap us with practically any other support if he cud.or if he cud replace the season ticket money with anything else he wud.

    I think he can do nothing right for some people who criticise his actions. I don't disagree with some of the criticism but as we see what happens on this Forum, and others, criticism can become personal and it looks, sometimes, as though banter and just plain rudeness is the end result.
    If you are in a hole, stop digging, seems to me to describe his attitude. I know that is not anywhere near your perception of his behaviour, but it's my thoughts about his communication and fan engagement.

    What communication and fan engagement?

    Sending out a message that he'll hunt down and ban any Dundee fan responsible for throwing a paper cup at Scott Bain whilst saying zip about hundreds of balls being lobbed onto the park by Celtic fans or enough pyros being set of by fans of The The Rangers to nearly get a game abandoned isn't good communication and fan engagement. In my opinion it's finger pointing and a clear demonstration of disdain for his customer base.

    In reply to the OP by RRoS - I think he hates that most fans have sussed him and are no longer buying his bullsh1t.

    Met him down Morecambe after a friendly must have been over 10 years ago,seemed a guid lad,engaged with fans and had a beer.Seems a very different man these days though,doesnt seem to want any dialogue with fans groups and quick to punish our clubs fans while watching the weegies recreate the centre court and guy fawkes night with little or no comment.

    I'm well past the stage of banter with that shyster b cram.

    He personally has driven hundreds if not thousands of fans away ( myself included ) and he is running DFC abysmally.

    And he will continue to run the club abysmally as he's never held to account by any fans group.

    I wonder if the perpetrators of the heinous crimes on Saturday belonged to his favourite DSA organisation?.....more than likely given ticket allocation.

    I'm sick of him, sick of those sycophants he employs and sick of him getting away with it.

    Didn't realise that and it's completely unacceptable.

    Falkirk stewarding also needs to be called into question then.
