    In the short term yes. The evictions took place in our second season in the Premier League and the ground was more or less full every match. If my memory isn't going they charged the same price for the East Stand and the North Stand.

    Of course, in the longer term, it helped result in a loss of income. When you factor in the £30 cap on away tickets it looks like a get rich quick scheme that backfired.

    Finally I suspect there were a number of City supporters that wanted a new kop behind the goal and pushed for it.

    Went for the Worcester sauce in the end. A good decision. Also managed to get them brown spots you sometimes get when you toast cheese under the grill.

    I wish I could get that every time but it's a hard thing to master.

    I feel slightly sick now.

    Aaaanyway, Ehab's a **** and I'm off to bed.

    Might have to count Man Utd fans jumping over a fence after the late cheese.

    **** you Ehab <ok>

    You're right of course, but it was certainly the start of the gradual drift away for some

    No chance of that happening, they're in denial and trying to further rewrite history.

    I recently found out that the club actually believed it was between 200-500 people who were getting in on concession passes and even that was little more than a guess.

    It was an excuse, rather than a genuine reason for change.

    Doesn't matter, Chazz always likes to latch on to these things and block out everything else.

    Then he makes sarcastic posts about everyone else 'quietly forgetting' it.

    The dodgy passes thing was obviously complete bollocks from the start.

    Hardly a revalation as some of us were pointing out it was bollocks at the time.

    I notice you couldn't clarify any of the facts you claim about on the other thread.

    It was our second season under Allams' ownership though, which is what I meant.
