SteV Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 We're pathetic. We’re the same as every other major fanbase. You think if Liverpool or Man Utd were going through what we were that they’d stand for it? The pressure they’d be putting on the owner would be relentless. Well the Glazers have been taking the piss for years and apart from the scarf thing a few years ago, they’ve been given a free pass to do so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Loads of empty seats on MOTD. There was more empty seats than usual. Not massively so, but I’d reckon the actual attendance was closer to 40k than 45k. Obviously no Metros didn’t help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don’t want to descend into a futile “our owner is worse than your owner” debate. The point I’m making is that other clubs, Man Utd being one, are not being run as well as they should be, and there are no mass protests at those clubs either.

The point I’m making is that other clubs, Man Utd being one, are not being run as well as they should be, and there are no mass protests at those clubs either. That's absolutely fair. We've certainly been victim of being not well run in the past (McKeag etc) but at that time, it felt like there was not much scope for improvement as there was not the money coming into the club. This is totally different now with Ashley, as he is deliberately holding us back, for personal gain, when everything was/is on a plate for us to be better than we are. I'm not aware of another Premier League owner who is running their club like Ashley is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hopefully, it will backfire massively on him come next season. I'd love to see a lot of those who blindly renewed this season, to fuck it off next season and hold out for another free ticket offer. The amount of renewals for next season could reduce dramatically on the back of this publicity stunt, not to mention the shit storm that is heading towards the team in the second half of the season.

TRon Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I don't really get the fans who are going to the games any more. If they just sat in silence, you could maybe put it down to apathy, but they managed to find their voice to boo Perez, one of the few half decent players we had last season. But they won't boo Bruce or Ashley, that's how fucking gormless they are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BirtleyMag Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 The club will probably keep the 10 year deal running for those still on it, then offer an additional season ticket at a discounted rate for current season ticket holders. I’ve seen a few fans say they won’t cancel their season ticket because of being on the 10 year deal which I don’t understand at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I'm going to Rochdale and Wolves over the next couple of weeks. I just enjoy the chance to take a train journey, have a few drinks and tick off another ground. The result is almost totally immaterial at this point. Was offered a couple of free tickets to Everton last week and didn't even consider for a moment going. Have absolutely zero interest in setting foot in SJP these days, which is very sad when you think about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
