What a ridiculous message from the club. They should be trying to rally the fans.
Funnily enough this is the exact sort of message they should've posted - http://www.bathcityfc.com/message-from-jerry/
Our PR department is a shambles.
I fear there will be an ugly atmosphere when the inevitable 0-3 Gills happens tonight.

Unfortunately, the last few days have the hallmarks of a messy divorce being played out. However, Fans can rightly vent their spleens and display anger and frustration at a poor performance and express their opinions on how things are going, it's the flip side of hugging a complete stranger in the moments after the last minute winner goes in. It's Football as we know it.
There may have been lines crossed in personal abuse, I don't know what non football related stuff was spouted or indeed, like the majority, am not privvy to what's been said or sent to anyone since. It maybe that that prompted
"Occasionally, though, the passion and enthusiasm oversteps the mark and the voice becomes unacceptably abusive"
Taking out, any personal abuse, it's only right that the support lets it be known how they feel. What is deemed unacceptably abusive might be open to interpretation by some. I work on the basis of I don't give it, if I couldn't take it.

The club just seem to want to make things worse don’t they?
I understand the sentiment behind it but don’t feel it was necessary, and has actually just heightened tensions between the club and the fans.
I am feeling very disillusioned with the club right now.
If Adams is still in charge I am not sure I will attend the FA cup game against Stevenage.
I have been a ST holder for many, many years. I was at Burnley when we were relegated. I was at Rochdale when we survived relegation. I’ve clocked up the miles supporting my team.
However, it is hard to feel a part of something when the club is alienating its fans.
The team is abysmal and some fans booed and shouted that they wanted him out. In response the manager of our club calls fans YOBS. How does that tie in with the vision and values of our club? How does that tie into the ‘family ethos’?
Derek Adams is, in my opinion, an arrogant football manager.
I don’t like listening to him, and wish someone else was in charge of our football club.
He is tearing this club apart.
What an absolute shame.

Why does football claim that being abusive is simply showing your passion? Try it in the bedroom and I doubt you'll get anywhere.
