“general response online”
Well that settles it then. Case closed. With that sort of evidence to back up an argument it’s beyond any doubt whatsoever. Cheers Sherlock.
Please come back soon. |

Ah, so it’s not just fans running on the pitch then?
And then they say this:
“ As a club, we deplore this behaviour and as well as supporting the police, we will be issuing the most serious of sanctions.”
To confirm, have you checked with EVERY Bury fan “their” that day whether they had seen those involved before and they weren’t Bury fans, as per your previous statement? [Post edited 16 May 22:53]

The story in that link posted by Bury (A)FC includes the following:
“ The police will now be working through a process of identifying the people that encroached on the playing surface when we scored, and also the images on social media of fans fighting.” |

So why did AFC release this statement?
No one who was “their” had seen them before? You’ve asked everyone then? |

The past is indeed the past, but rewriting history to suit an argument doesn’t help achieve progress in the future either.
Nobody was under any illusions about the club’s position over the last few months, the facts are that the Ogdens have provided us with a future with help from many others in getting the deal done. Some of the other events leading up to this point in time don’t reflect well on our club, but that’s probably part of any journey that ends with a positive conclusion. |

Undoubtedly. Decisions that make sense rather than words that sound good but have little substance when it comes to reality.
They had to go up and should have a year ago at least. |

Well done to all concerned who focused on finding the best route forward for the club. This is undoubtedly it.
With the new blood on the board and having prominent roles it’s clear we are going to find a different, hopefully positive way, of operating and maximising everything that’s good about RAFC. |

If the contract is in the club’s favour and it has been triggered, it doesn’t matter if a player wants to sign it. They effectively already have. |

Pompey fans seem genuinely gutted at Rafferty leaving. He’ll get another league one club for sure.
He can also play in a back three to prolong his career so wouldn’t be surprise to see a Wigan/Bolton/Barnsley type club come in for him. |

Then the voting system being used is obviously not the best. Which states the obvious!
Don’t get it because the Trust run things like player of the month without these problems. |

The number of votes cast should have given them a fair idea of the issues.
And that they’re now requiring an email to vote. |

For all the justified criticism around performances, tactics and selections over recent weeks, got to acknowledge that McNulty has overseen a ten game run with only one defeat. 17 points from those games too. |

Can’t believe we are persisting with the same formation that has limited us for weeks. Midfield two/front two just does not work with the four players that are being chosen. It limits their own contributions. |

An excellent statement that identifies what needs to improve and initial routes to achieving this. The golden share which helps to safeguard the ground is a standout feature.
We’ve gone from fearing what losing control to outside investors would mean to some certainty should the deal progress as we all hope. |

Alternatively, without the income from the Spurs (and Newcastle two years later) replay we could have been in even bigger financial trouble earlier than we were.
Or we could have lost on pens to Millwall the round before. |

McNulty is going to start overthinking himself into real trouble. There’s nothing to indicate we know what works for this team and what makes us look pedestrian and non descript.
Could spend forever going into the details but if he honestly believes weeks of playing a midfield two and front two which limits the abilities of all involved, then he’s not watching the same game as the rest of us.
Not giving Henderson sufficient time on the pitch since Christmas has cost us a chance of the playoffs. Not giving him any time tonight was a shocking decision. |

The ultimate ‘football teams to death’ came against the likes of Bradford and Rotherham when we played direct, attacking football with defenders who knew to get into the forwards.
Prior to that we’d done it three years previously when we were near the bottom of the league. The game has been over-thought and confused in my opinion. Should we choose to commit to ‘total options’ and go against the grain, it’ll rip up the modern football rulebook. McNulty has that opportunity. |

I don’t know or really care. Because the emphasis should be on effective football.
The game is far removed from what I think is entertaining or effective these days, so maybe I’m the dinosaur. But even now I truly believe there’s a way to play in a skilful, productive way that helps to make players better.
If Keith Hill circa 2007 was around today, he could change the entire game at lower levels. Now that might sound like hyperbole, but it is what’s required in L1/2/NL to actually see a real shift away from clubs/boards/managers who believe that all of a sudden there’s one way to play.
That Keith Hill would have us or any team causing havoc. Unfortunately, that Keith Hill got lost within the changes in the game too. There’s still a chance for that Hill-type person to step up now though. |

Oh I know, there is little hyperbole amongst a majority of the fanbase hence my comments about how the manager has to recognise where he’s falling short of the “total options” we were told we’d witness.
Can hyperbole be negative? Genuine questio. Some do that! Then disappear… but not those who post their valid concerns about what we are seeing. |
