Look left from my seat in Don Rogers - the remnants of a once lively/bustling Town End stare back at me. Gaping holes between fans, but hey, no one gets crushed in a crowd surge when we score. And especially not kids, they're not allowed in.
I despair. Ghost football club #STFC

In comparison Grimsby have sold about 5,800, Oldham about 5,500 and Vale 6,500.
A decade of failure, lies and incompetence means we're being left behind. We may stand still, but when everyone else progresses, we get left circling the drain.

We've now sold over 4,100 season tickets! ❤️
There's still time to order yours ⬇️

No confidence in the regime, both Clem and Hall are rude and disrespectful towards fans. The poll from the trust says it all, the owners need to go and fast. @TrustSTFC enough time has past from your statement and Clem needs pressure to sell. #clemitstime @so69fangroup
The @TrustSTFC survey had plenty of blunt words and home truths to once again lay bare the opinion of fans one month on from the Fans' Forum
I don't think the fans can make themselves much clearer, and it is time to see some progress #STFC

We've managed to source the full 90-min audio recording of this evening's #STFC fans forum.
Ian Holloway's presence, as ever, was a useful distraction for Morfuni, who spent the evening veering from awkward avoidance to half-truths and put-downs.
Everything about Morfuni and Hall this evening reeked of utter, utter contempt for #STFC fans and our community.
So all in all, a standard interaction with the dynamic duo...
Clem, it's time.

(Apols for the audio quality; it's not perfect, but it's audible and it's important we get it out there)

Honestly, where do we go from here?
Even if results go well at the start of the year, this club is a zombie.
The key talking point tonight was the wedge between the club and it's fans, that wedge has only grown after tonight. I hope one day we'll be free of these chancers.

If you could just sort out the ground, owners transparency and shares/debentures imagine how many would travel the short distance for home games. What a waste of a fan base and once glorious brand. The lack of care tells and an unprofessional run professional football club. Sad

Instead of ending up banning fans for occupying empty seats, how about just fix the problem that's reduced your own home end to a husk.
And in a potential promotion season, too.
Madness.

Morfuni ‘What shall we do to promote this massive match ?’
Hall ‘Nothing Sir ?’
Morfuni ‘No - we’d best do more than that. It’s a make or break game for the whole season’
Hall ‘How about ‘next to nothing’? ‘
Morfuni ‘Yes. Perfect. That should get the punters in’

#12thman and he's on the money. We get the Nigel Eady County Ground rocking again and that's a guaranteed extra 5-6 points I reckon. Holloway is passionate and honest and hardworking and for me I'm backing him all the way 👏👏 #STFC
With the away fans in good voice today, Ian Holloway has called for supporters both home and away to get behind the team and bring the noise 🗣️

@SkySports (Apart from @JeffStelling when he was on) couldn't give a shit about clubs in crisis or the fans of 'lower level' clubs. It is all about the Premier League (Arguably, the top 7 or 8 of the Premier League) and at they proudly tell us their 215 live games this season!!

New season. Fresh optimism. But this time it feels different. All thanks to this man. But it's the fans that will make or break this season. So if you're there today then bring the noise. It's always the 12th man that wins the game. COYR! 👊👊⚪🔴 #stfc

Can you print an open letter from someone who at least understands the basics of the JV agreement next time please.

"Tradition."
"Legacy."
MK will only ever have one legacy.
At the very least, just drop the "Dons". You don't even have to change the main part of the badge.

***unapproved minutes***
And you want us to vote through redevelopment?
You can't be trusted.

Going ahead and publishing minutes of a meeting that people who were in the room say are inaccurate when in a months time you need the same group to approve millions of pounds worth of building work. #stfc #ClemItsTime

A perfect summary of why Morfuni is facing pushback to his redevelopment plans.
If these plans are rejected by the fans then that is entirely the fault of Clem Morfuni and upon his duplicitous actions

For many fans, it's not the proposals that are the problem.
Thoughts on the response to Swindon Town's plans for the County Ground over the past week.

Big takeaway among the chaos: never felt like Town would wilt. Not at 0-2, not at 1-3, not at 3-4.
There's inherent belief in that team now, and it's spreading to the fans.
The County Ground was an atmospheric corpse not long ago.
Holloway has brought it back to life.

Holloway confirming his extension in a press conference then all the local outlets running the story rather than the official channel making a proper announcement is absolute peak #stfc crap marketing. Everything about this club is just so substandard. It isn’t hard. #ClemItsTime
