I certainly do. A balance of our more talented youngsters, the addition of Husband and an overhaul of the rest of the squad is needed.

He says "build a team capable of challenging for top honours".  He doesn't mean mid-table mediocrity.

The way he's going, they'll be free before long..

Lol!! Try not to be so picky. Challenging for 'top honours' certainly means promotion and NOT top of the bottom half.

You have until 22 May to decide to renew at this price. Time to see if there are any promising signs after the end of the season.

A decent offer definitely worth having, and should keep attendances at least where they have been this season.

It's good to hear from him - a little bit of communication from the big man goes a long way, especially when he's talking of challenging for honours & saving us money...

Good to hear from him, but when it's when they want money from fans it becomes a little coincidental and fake. Hearing from him when we get pasted week in, week out saying it'll all change would be more beneficial.

Somebody in PR took 15 minutes to put that together. What would Khan know about "acceptable and rewarding" football. As opposed to this season, I suppose mid table mediocrity would be a bonus. Not conceding 5 goals at home would also be an improvement. I suppose it is positive that somebody in the club recognises the need for those 2 words. Who ever it is must read posts on here. 065.gif

It could mean that we are going to put in a decent challenge for the F.A. Cup. A trip to Wembley really is something to look forward to. Better be topping up those loyalty points.


win-dup

public relations claptrap from an owner who wouldn't know a good football team from a marbles team. This man is a menace to our very existence at the Cottage. Makes me so angry when these  people buy our football clubs and treat them as toys.

Talk about nitpicking, are you saying that letting kids have a season ticket for £60 a bad thing. I will be paying less than £300 for mine. For goodness sake give credit when it is due. Blimey, that's wishful thinking with some of you.

Maybe, but that will be costing him money to drop prices to that level. Where else would you get a season ticket for kids for under £100? A good incentive to get fans of the future involved in Fulham.

I agree totally, not so much a coincidence as the need to get fans to part with money. That is in no way a criticism of the guy, just good business.

The unfortunate part in all this is that if we were safe in the Championship, then the reduction might appear be a little more appealing, I just pray this isn't a case of hedging bets on the part of the club considering the current situation we are in.
Logical is just in the name - don't expect it has anything to do with my thought process, because I AM the man who sold the world.

I am very happy in that statement, there is no mention of a backing of Symons for next season.

Which there will not be because the window for actual transfers will not be open yet.


HV71

I think it is a very good offer. I do not think the statement could say anything else. It has to be as positive as they can make it . No moans from me .

Which is handy, for them.

Personally keeping my powder dry till I see some action - Symons replaced by a decent manager, shite culled, decent players coming in. If I forgo the discount, so be it. There's very little chance of my seat no longer being available, a risk I'm willing to take.
