be interesting to see the crowds for the next few games after that....

I know he's old, but he's not that daft.

I don't know why he says the things he does, but he cannot believe that the current ownership situation is the best thing for the club... he just can't.

Right before everyone starts rewriting history, he has talked on the subject many times. He doesn't restrict his answers to one word answers or try and sit on the fence. He stands shoulder to shoulder with the Glazers. He could easily say he's focussing on the team and just as the board don't get involved in picking the team, he's leaving the business side to get on with whatever it does. Easy. He doesn't though, does he? He's like Tufty and Throb ffs.

Shame the protest didn't start earlier we may have have won the league.

We've filled it against shitter teams for years and years. When was the last league game OT wasn't sold out? Newcastle back up, they have a lot of fans pissed off at watching them play shit teams week in week out. This will be their game of the season, they'll all be trying to get tickets.

Imagine that as a banner with the slogan "The only thing affecting the team is that leech you call an excellent owner. Where's the cash Malcom?".

we've never struggled in the past though, kev even when the petrol strike was on etc.

i was offered two earlier on at £44 each. people don't want to pay it. season ticket sales are one thing and a few thousand haven't renewed (55,000 sold i think) but the fact that those tickets took this long to sell on open sale speaks volumes.

doubt it the @#%&!s will sell out their allocation but that's it

pretty sure Reading wasn't sold out or the Jawdies the last time when we drew 0-0

you can't honestly say that you thought the sold out signs would be up for this one

hilarious, I'm being slagged off by the biggest gobshite on the forum



you £#%&!ing #@&%!

we weren't £800 million in debt or sold the best player in the world and STILL not spent his fee when the petrol strike was on ....I thought we'd be lucky to get 70,000 on Monday

it's Peatlemania that's what it is

catchy

Well at least he's not saying 'aren't the glazers great?'.

THe way I LIKE to see it is that he's decided - rightly or wrongly - to stay on despite the Glazers, and has acted as 'presidentially' as possible since then. All his mind games are about upsetting the applecart at rival clubs, any tiny advantage, and publically bleating about lack of funds attracts the wrong kind of attention.

I would've preferred him not to do that, but that's a matter of opinion.

And I wish he'd just shut the £#%&! up now.

IN fairness, MUST should've called for a boycott. not many innocents in this.

I have less faith in our match going regulars than you do. I hope I'm wrong and this is the start of the big push but it's more likely the start of the end of the protests, until we sell Rooney next summer.

firstly KFC is correct about the ticket sales in previous seasons early games

secondly, nowhere near as many people have the same amount of spare cash that they're prepared to throw at a PL game atm, with the tory cuts still to take full effect as well. surely the G&G etc aren't going to even try and take full credit for anything but a percentage of any empty seats?

i obviously agree that £44 is a put off though. same price as the colin bell stand last season that - far too much...

£44 must be for those quadrant seats or main stand


the only reason I was able to afford to renew was because my season ticket cost £200 less this year...it's now £26 a game which is not bad considering how much it costs elsewhere

I have a spare
