Good morning Glory & all My season-ticket is on the way but I have no high expectations anymore as I've been let down with broken promises so often in the past. If LUFC haven't learn't their lessons I fear for us next season
Good afternoon Ell Firstly we had cold calling from Cooper & Dallas, now this latest statement appears with three days of season-ticket renewals to go. Radz, Kinnear are obviously concerned announcing their latest statement as I'm hearing only 12k have renewed their season-tickets. You can't keep trampling on fans & expect to get away with it Us attendees have enough of that crap thrown at us from Sky TV, our next away game is proof of that, whilst the majority of football fans are enjoying going to a game on Easter Monday at a reasonable kick-off time, the majority of our supporters have had to arrange a day-off work to travel to Fulham on Tuesday. I've had to rearrange all my business appointments on Tuesday & Wednesday because of the inconvenience
Afternoon 1964. What surprised me about when I came up to the Wendies game is the distance fans had travelled to get to the game. Literally hundreds of miles and obviously hundreds of pounds. The thing that hurts is there only seems to be a couple of players that seem bothered. One player in particular that couldn't give a toss was Ekuban whose efforts half hearted to say the least.
I think it was Mark Lawrenson that recently said in an interview that probably 95% of footballers these days treat the game as a job and their clubs as employers. No loyalty and fans need to realise that fact
Not just these days, as David Batty said when the retired "I’ve not been to watch any match since I finished playing. I can never understand anybody paying to watch it, never mind going all the way across the world to see it. You want to be entertained"
Costs Shaks around £40,000 per season in booze, now thats a fan. If football was banned it would still cost Shaks £40k not to watch it
Thats the thing about the cost. My last home game was Cardiff. I took my nephew. For a start it was £45 for the tickets, same again for diesel from Lincolnshire and home. £6 for parking, £10 for beer before hand, £3.50 for a programme, £10 on pies and a drink for us both, £60 in the club shop for the boy and then £15 the Maccies on the way home. £194.50 to sit in the cold and watch us lose 4-1. How some people go week in week out is beyond me. If we were going and seeing the players give 110% then it would not hurt as much, I dont expect them to be the best and I can handle losing but at the cost to me I expect to see the players bust a nut. Anyway, we are going again Friday.
