Probably because they are acting on behalf of the fans, and they are conscious that the fans will want an update as to what happened last night, rather than prioritising their relationship with the club and worrying about jeopardising their seat at the table.
Exactly. It was clear from the communications from the ‘supporters forum’ when parroting the clubs line about costs that nothing was happening.
I’m grateful the RF stood up, filled the void when it mattered and took action. We’d be where we were last week without them.
Agreed. They could have put a brief apology/ explanation in the renewal email and thanked supporters for their commitment to the cause. That would’ve made the pill easier to swallow. I do think they’ve brought the spotlight on themselves more than it would have been with the tone of the email.
The more financially astute have concluded we’re in financial trouble, of course it’s more likely that their extra fingers makes counting more awkward for them.
