Blackburn v Charlton crowd 12000 that's on the back of 10 years in the premiership and winning the title.surely they owe the club some loyalty?

I don't think that fans owe anything to the clubs they support. They pay their hard earned money week in week out to follow their teams, and it is up to the clubs to ensure the fans are getting good value for their money. In the main, football fans are getting ripped off left right & centre with entrance fees, replica club kits, food & drink at the grounds etc., and all to ensure that the players can earn more in a week than most of us earn in a year. The clubs are not doing the fans a favour by allowing them into their grounds, the fans are doing the clubs a favour by spending a considerable amount of their money each season, and providing them with some valuable additional income.

Why should any one expect loyalty ?

Football is killing itself. The whole model will implode soon (in this country). Why are a couple of Indian business men or a malaysian owning community clubs ? 10K is quite good for a small town with much bigger fish locally.

Why do we have dynamic pricing or differing price catergories ? To fleece the fans we are moaning about not attending.

In this premier league or bust era one of the traditional "big" clubs will go to the wall and take a few others as well and i can't wait.

Where are Derby getting thier money from ?

How many clubs have bigger debts than we do ? I believe blackburn are one of them


I really hope Newcastle and villa go down so their owners get their fingers burnt.
