O totally, ive been thinking about this too, actually feel for people in the office who will get abuse on the phones, as you say Friday, is there a bank holiday Monday coming up to give them an extra 24 hours?
No bank hols anytime soon mate.
The box office staff are already getting abuse and anger, it's only going to get worse.
Ive been told a fella managed to get into the ground/call centre and kicked off, saying just give the job to the big man (Duncan) - that's not been reported anywhere.
Also, the box office staff have also been asked by the directors, for feedback on what's been getting said and the general mood of the fans during any calls - I hope they actually listen to them and reconsider if they are going with the fsw, but they probably won't.
I reckon that think that by announcing over the weekend will give it enough time to all blow over and for the fans to calm down and accept it...
If so, they are more deluded than that lot across the park.
