Or it could be that those people had a different point of view. That they disagreed with walking out. Could be they thought this is not a one-club issue or that it is not the fault of the owners.
That's fair enough mate, everyone stressed early in the organisation of it that is very much an individual choice. So I suppose the only way you'd have felt that togetherness would have been part of the exiting group going down the stairs and on the the streets singing on mass.
You're correct, it's not a one club overall problem but to sacrifice 13 minutes of a game was an opportunity not to be mossed to illustrate how fans can create a back-lash. And on this occasion it is the owners fault isn't it? They've endorsed the pricing strategy.
FSG never said they would pump money into the club.
That's not what this is about though is it? It about an equilibrium of ticket prices not about seeking damaging investment. For the record, I actually like FSG and I'd argue they've made funds available to what seems now a failing transfer committee.
So what next?
Hopefully some clarification from the club but otherwise I haven't a clue mate, but the start for some people was yesterday - what's next for you? Are you doing anything?
but the fault here lies with players dragging millions out of the fans' pocket, not the owners. Average player wages for just one player last year? More than the increase in general admission income from these changes.
Yep, football has become an obscene industry and I'd love to see the bubble burst. Yesterdays protest can't fix footballs fuck-ups or reverse how the FA and Premier League have allowed the game to gorge greedily from the fans pockets, but it's a showing of defiance about the continual acceptance of avarice across this country.
It may not work, it may fail miserably within weeks and those that sit opposite my seat in the lower CT will get shafted, but me, my lad and thousands of others told the world yesterday that its fucking stinks.
And like many others have said, I stand by my point that those that sat with their hands under their arse missed the solidarity of the event and failed those that needed support.
