The last few years of utter tripe served up both on and off the pitch has killed the passion of many a sky blues fan, countless people I talk to these days cant be bothered to go and "waste their money" anymore, several times I've had free tickets this season that I couldn't give away due to the lack of interest.
I never thought id be put in that bracket but these last few weeks/months have pretty much finished me off too, appointing another manager many fans didn't want didn't help and then all this boardroom bickering, the subsequent sacking of the manager, no money, no investment, no ground and it just seems to be getting worse.
Then we get the usual waffle as expected from this week's press conference with immediate lies about talking to the council about buying the ground, a meeting is arranged for Friday our new team of directors say which is immediately denied by the council...........great start that fellas!
This last 3 years under Sisu have been a nightmare, yes they saved the club from administration back then but for what? were no better off now than we were then! the one promise Ranson made to the fans looks like its been broken, Brody says were as much up the creek now financially as we were back then but uncle Ray told us that the day he left the club it would be in a far better financial state than what it was when he arrived...............
I've simply had enough now, cant legislate investing anymore of my money, in the past i've gave them money towards the academy, bought a psl when the club were crying out for money but I don't really enjoy going to games anymore, particularly the home games which is now feeling a chore to go to so I have came to the decision that I will not be renewing my season ticket this summer, I will wait till august, if there are signs that things are changing dramatically or we get new owners who are prepared to invest then I will invest.
As it stands at the moment, I will be picking and choosing my away games next season as I'm not prepared to give Sisu any more of my money until I see a significant change in the way they operate,
I've been a season ticket holder for 20 odd years and can count the amount of games I've missed home and away in the last 10 years on 1 hand, actions speak louder than words and they have four months to win back me and many other fans that are falling by the wayside.
