I didn't take a name sorry Finny, but I am sure that is what I was told.
I wish I hadn't bothered posting, as I thought the sales figure was good, and didn't post to get drawn towards the axe that Sponge Bob clearly needs to grind against the Devils' head.
I fed up with everything the Devils do being turned into amunition for somebody to take a shot with - there's too much of that on this forum at the moment.
I know it is a forum, but there is a difference between healthy debate & constructive criticism and negativity, and I am not a fan of the latter.
I will butt out until people cool down.
Woooooaaaaaahhh, calm down. I wasn't having a go at you. It was simply a question, like was it someone on reception, or over the phone etc.
Please don't stop posting on here, as Chris said if everyone did that it would get pretty boring.
I can actually see where BBW is coming from. I love this forum and people having decent arguments and debates but I've been bored all season with people just waiting for the management to fail. Thats probably the only thing that annoys me on here.
"Oh I went into the office and they wrote with black pen ... the old management used to use blue pen and it was way better ...."
"I phoned the office and the phone rang 3 times before someone answered ... this would never have happened with the old management."
etc.
MOVE ON
All I remember with the 'old management' is wondering whether we'd actually be able to finish the season or not. With the new management we actually heard during the season that the owner had personal problems yet did it even affect us? No, we didn't need fans up and down the country with bucket collections to help us see the season out like in the past it was dealt with privately and a new CEO/owner/whatever he is was found straight away. Yet people still want to criticise them for absolutely everything they do. We have a team that finished in the top four (despite not being one of the 'big 4'), lost the Play-Off Final on penalty shots, lost the CC final by 1 goal, and seem to be closer to a proper new rink than ever before and yet all people seem to worry about is the trivial little things that just don't matter.
As long as we have a team that are getting paid and are happy, I don't think the behind the scenes stuff should matter to any of us ... just enjoy the hockey!
As for season ticket numbers .. every company puts spin on things .. good companies anyway. Would you buy a season ticket from someone who said 'yeh nobody else is buying one' or from someone who said 'Wow its nearly record, don't miss out, everyone's getting one!"
