Would the Allam's do this? Nah, probably increase the ticket prices for the next game to cover the teams travel costs for the postponed game.
Maybe the penny has dropped and he realises what football means to the fans. Or put someone in charge that knows. They happen to be fighting for promotion too, all goes hand in hand.

Not until the parachute payments dry up, and it starts costing them to maintain the running of the club.
I’m afraid I suspect they’d still rather sell it to someone who won’t do well, so they can keep telling themselves how good they were for the club and how they told us how difficult we’d find it without them
So where's our local businessmen who are lifelong supporters of the club and who are anxious to save the club and gain the love and admiration of the local population? It's also telling it IS locals and not some international group. Maybe they are more of a football city than us.
That’s pretty much (apart from supporters) what our owners described themselves as when they took over!!!
Ohhhh good spin! So we're hoping the Mackem ****s get similar owners? Question is though, would we be expected to show solidarity and support for them when they launch Mackems Til We Die??
Noticed Steve McClaren in the west stand yesterday, he's been at a few of the home games this season, wonder if he's still involved with that consortium that was allegedly looking to buy a club, or am i as i expect, clutching at straws.
