Things are not perfect either on or off the pitch but be happy with what we have as when, and not if, John Radford leaves you will realise how far we have come
All the logic:
A) it's better than what we had, so be happy with your lot.
B) even if it was better, you'd still not be happy because people with more aren't happy. And
C) even though it's not very good, it could still get worse.
All at once!
This isn't just you Trenty, it's regional. Ive lived in a lot of places and these self-depreciating attitudes are way more common in Notts than anywhere else I've lived (Liverpool, Sheffield, France, London).
Why should we be happy. Why can't we want more? I get called demanding but surely we can ask for more than what we've got. Is it really good enough for 2023‽
This is so true. 'We'll settle for nothing now & we'll settle for nothing later' mentality does my bloody head in.
A proper club shop & adequate ticket office should be the absolute bare minimum requirements for a stadium at this level.
To still be operating from a portacabin & two windows 20+ years after the stadium was built is shocking.
The ticket office thing always make me smile, apart from the occasional all ticket away game you don't have to visit the ticket office, the improvement is buying online, selecting the seat you want to sit in and downloading to your phone or printing the ticket off, if you can't do that they'll post out to you for about the same cost as getting to the ground to collect it. Going to the ticket office is so 'old hat'.
Funny thing that, because I wanted 1 guest ticket at the weekend and getting one in even the same block, never mind the same row was an absolute ball ache, because our ticketting system is so raspberry I couldn't buy a ticket well in advance & the online option is shows seats as sold that aren't sold.
MTFC is on of the most complacent businesses I've ever encountered.
