ICT V Motherwell ...attendance down again this week; just over 3,000
East Fife v whoever (slipped my mind LOL) ....677 Remember East Fife were promoted this season and they still won with onbly 9 men on the park.
Ross County versus .......whoever... ........... 232.
Am I seeing things.. only 232 turn up at a promoted County stadium and the Dingwallians expect them to survive.? Was this attendance a mis-report?
These are only 3 results that a sleepy Scarlet stumbled upon this evening. My question is this ...is the the writing on the wall?
If money does not come in the door then the writing could be creeping steadily across the floor and the wall loometh. How can ICT DO anything to make this club progress steadily if this continues.Very little unless the wealthy come to the rescue -- like an Arabian Knight?
Will the Management reduce prices ..they could, but my prediction is that they will not?--- Outdated policies die hard. Fear and indigent concern will trump decisive action.
The disease needs radical cuts and radical thinking--enterprising courageous thinking designed to get more fans in the door, not less. And with the price of sport in general being really high and sport salaries being completely off the wall now and money, as a result, having taken over the sports world like a rapid all-consuming crimping , clawing parasite, is the future bleak or what?
You all noticed how blazingly-fast the current economic crisis ballooned completely out of control , spreading rampant fear and panic everywhere.My thoughts are that the fan (aka the money-earner) not only is coming close to having had enough of overblown pricing and overblown salaries relating to overblown egos on the park but is simply finding the cost of living is dragging them down deeper and deeper and no longer can afford it.
Going to the football , once a mantra chanted with pleasure at thought of the thrills ahead,.....will it soon become a thing of the past --looks like it my dearies.
As a friend said to me recently when I asked him if he was going to buy a seson's ticket for ICT he replied " not with the kind of good English games on the telly like the one I saw last week........." what he was saying I think is why go out in the cold and rain, travel for miles ,have a problem with the parking and then watch a game that is possibly going to leave you feeling disappointed , at a (relatively ) high price, followed by the long slog home ....etc.
