Somebody's not renewing because their meat isn't served at the table properly?

Fuck modern football right in its twatty ear.

You really think that's the reason? Nothing to do with the disgraceful decline of the club over the last 6 seasons then?

Stripping dedicated fans of their season ticket is an absolute disgrace. Get Fox out of the club, that shameful imbecile.

I'm happy for both women for standing up against this shit.

She gave up her working wage in revolt to the joke our club has become. I don't care if it's a premier league club or a sandwich shop, good for her.

It has to start and stop somewhere. This club makes me sick.
This club I love, the running of it makes me sick.

Yeah, should've said that. Love the club, but the day to day operations eat me alive.
It's run. albeit badly, like a modern day business with long periods of silence interspersed with large dollops of 'spin'.

Why should they keep paying if the standard of service they receive is dropping? I'd have thought one of the main reasons someone has a box is the service they receive, otherwise they'd 'just' have a normal ST.

Well there's been a constant down playing of the problems at the club until the shit has completely hit the fan this season.

Sad to see people attacking this former employee who has revealed so much. Whistleblowers should be supported not held up to ridicule.

I'm sure how chilled the champagne is and how choice the meat is must be great concerns. I get corporate schmoozing, but it doesn't alter my view that it's shit.

I'm not sure she "revealed so much". Most of it we already knew, she was only in reception on match days so I doubt she knows anywhere near as much as she's making out. she didn't name anyone. About the only thing of note was someone dancing in reception, no idea of who or the context. It's hardly Watergate.

People. Let's get to grips with the situation. We aren't getting back to the Prem for quite a while.  Lerner can bring this club to its knees if he chooses to. Without a buyer we are heading for some rather nasty years ahead.

When they are spending thousands for hospitality i'm sure it is a concern if it's a lower standard.
Same as people on here would complain if the pies/beer were of lower quality but cost the same.
And it's nothing to do with modern football, there's been boxes at VP since the North Stand was built.

She's "revealed" nothing other than she's a bit pissed off because her job isn't what it used to be while local media with a blatant agenda are making out that a few bits of gossip - most of which are common knowledge -  equates to Woodward and Bernstein.

If it is true, and I don't know that it is, that a young girl was ejected from VP and her ST seized for showing dissent, then things appear to have taken a sinister turn. North Korea, Dr Strangelove and the tory governments war on Non Violent Extremists (those that think Cameron et al are incompetent liars) comes to mind. Could paranoia be kicking in? Fox has now got bodyguards apparently. Maybe the Gen will be parachuted in as the Head of The Department of Villa Park Security?

Bodyguards and season ticket seizures?

If true, then these idiots are beginning to lose it. Which could mean we are going to witness interesting times.

To be fair, I didn't know that Fox had two body guards at all times.. or that he stripped supporters of their season tickets for simple and deserved dissent. That stinks of Putin and it's a joke.

I didn't know certain employees were cut off at halftime as a money saving tactic. That can't be true. How much could that really save? £2-3,000? Pathetic.

I'm glad she stuck up for other employees caught in the crossfire, too.

Well it was in numerous threads about the girl saying she'd been removed and had her ST taken away. I'm going to guess that the bodyguards are actually stewards. And i'd be surprised if some staff haven't always left early. Turnstile operators for example, why would they be there all game as all but the late turnstiles shut just after KO.
