The people who are upset are the ones who are dedicated members and fans who spend winter after winter following this club around and supporting them - some times at great sacrifice. As a whole, the past 7 years have been unsatisfactory. We win the comp in amazing circumstances and then…..nothing. We build a roster that would be the envy of many clubs and they produce very little. We are the ones who sit in the rain and freezing winds to watch a side chock full of talent who barely have a go and then act like nothing is wrong when they are flogged. We are the ones they lie to week after week through every concievable medium. I heard a stat tonight that the Canberra Raiders havent missed the finals 2 years in a row since 1986\. Most years we beat them. Most years we have a better side than them. Their players obviously have more pride in their jumper because at the very worst, they make the finals every second season.

Boonboon, your labelling of us as fair weather or bandwagoner fans is ridiculous. 2013 is already looking like a disaster. You need to wake up.

You are all sooks

Whoops. Sorry. Should have known that we're not allowed to be upset with the pathetic way the club has been run this year. I'll just stick my head in the sand with you mate.

Seriously.

What a pathetic mindset you have. It is supporters like you who put up with mediocrity that allow a once proud club like Parramatta to turn into the joke it currently is. We are headed in the same direction.
 
You people who crap on about being ''true supporters'' and looking down on the rest of us peasants from your high horse all because we don't follow the side the way you do are the true laughing stock. Get a life
 
next year, I wil be turning up to game where possible.
whether wests-tigers deliver, well who knows.

am tired of sub par performances.

make it simple, perform or bugger off,regardless of who you are, and let some-one in who will at least try .
 
I was a Gold/Premium Season Ticket Holder x 2 from 2002 to 2008, went to almost every away game, even followed them overseas for the club challenge, spent an enormous amount of my salary on merchandise every year. I said to the club at the end of 2008 I would not return until Sheens was outta there and that they should not hire a replacement coach from within.

I only go to 3 or 4 games a year now (free tix, rsl membership ets), havent bought any merch since 2008 and my once absolute obsession with the club has waned enormously. I cannot stand the weak management, the crap that is peddled by Sheens and the media that support it, the clques within the playing group, it all stems from the top.

There will be some supporters that call me fair weather and that is fine. But this club risks irreparable damage to its brand by holding onto these out of touch coaching staff. How long can a club continue to bleed members, I estimate I spent at least $3000+ every year directly into the club in those 7 years, 2005 was a hell of a lot more.

Think if there are 333 people that spend $3000 on membership, merch, food/drinks etc thats a million dollars a year the club is costing themselves in revenue.
 
Reconsidering a membership for 2013

- debacle with 2012 seating
- WT power men inactive on making tough decisions around club i.e stale sheens
- see if WT offers bonus entry to nsw cup games and promotes a WT nsw cup team as part of member packages

Why I won't be a member in 2013 and further more, probably a sharks fan next year.

The seating situation for members who renewed.
Membership gets you nothing at this club, it doesn't get you a vote in how it's run.
The performances this year, there where a couple of disgraceful unacceptable ones.
The Gibbs situation, how he was treated.
Now rumors of beau going as well.
Not a fan of how Wests reserve grade has been pilfered and left to rot.

I won't be a member next year. And I don't know where my heart is.

Oh and for the record it has nothing to do with not winning games…it's an attitude issue from the players, coaching staff and management.

lol as if
if we won all of our games and were playing next week, i doubt you'd be making a moral stance against the club

Amen brother.
 
I feel for you angry ant.
Pouring money into the club to receive nothing in return except a couple average performances and poor management of the club.
Any other business that you would invest in and they would reward you.
They could Atleast offer a 10 or 20% discount on your next purchase or a couple free gen. Admission tickets to a game.
Theres a poor retention rate at this club on both accounts

Like many others i won't be renewing.I will still go to games, but not tracking all around Sydney for 16-17 games a year like usual. I just can't justify the old, stubborn fossil still being rolled out as head coach 5 years past his used by date. I and many others called for this bloke to take a hike after 2007, probably had about 20% of the fans agreeing with us then. Now id say that is closer to 90%. I also hate watching a half hearted cat like Moltzen disgracing the jersey.

No other sporting club in the country would a coach survive 7 years with 2 finals appearances. Most those years we has had the roster to make the top 4 let alone the top 8\. We have once in a generation players in Marshall and Farah and somehow we are just stuck in disgusting mediocrity. Hasler or Bellemy probably would have made about 5 GF's wth these 2 players and made the other players around them very tough and servicable. Instead were just the same old mentally weak, soft rabble that plays well about once a month and for about 25 minutes in each game. Get on the odd lucky winning streak, however when that wave falls flat we are left with nothing.

Worst thing is the old fossil will probably run 8th next year and talk about how that is a pass mark. Although my gut feeling is he is dead set losing the plot further and further by the day and could lead us to our worst ever finish since he took over in 2003\. We cop 1 or 2 injuries next year and with Sheens in charge we are a dead set spoon chance.

If Sheens moves on Ill sign up for Gold membership and probably start sitting in the stands tomorrow ready for Round 1\. Its going to be a day of huge relief when it finally happens. Hopefully in the next 20 years.
 
Eddie I agree on most issues

But i disagree on this point you made

That Bellamy would of got us to 5 GF with this roster

Bellamy would of sacked half the blokes by now and bought players who want to win no matter what , not pretty boys and pretenders like we have
 
I can never maintain the rage for a whole offseason. Once again I have told myself that I can have a small moral victory by not visiting gearzone and not renewing but I know come march I'll be a card carrying member wearing whatever jersey they release. I'm weak.

I must be more pragmatic than most, I fully expect to have good years and bad, I expect some years they will surprise me with over performance, and other years like this one, I expect big things and we disappoint. Im not any more or less likely to support the side next year than I am any other year, I will go to the games that suit, watch all our games live than on replay the next day with out the emotion clouding my judgement, hope we win every game, but in reality happy win 12 be in the semies, preferring a couple extra to jag a decent spot in the semies and hope for the best once there.

I know full well Im not going to agree with every thing the club do, but almost always there is a logic behind it, and just cause it isn't what I do, does'nt make it wrong.

SO next year I will be the same as every other year.
 
I will be renewing my membership and that of my two year old daughter. My wife is due to give birth in December to our second child and he/she will become a Tigers member almost instantly. Unfortunately I live in WA and won't be able to get to any games but if I lived in Sydney I'd be going to as many as I possibly could. I w USB everyone would do the same. Let's support our boys through the bad as well as the good.
