If any one man is bigger than the club it is Niall, but if he goes does Short?

I think it is empty rhetoric anyway, he has invested too much time and effort into the club for him to go at this moment in time.

Attendances are down across the Premier league if you exclude the top 5 as there are other forces(just as dark) at work that are making watching football illegally attractive, £27 can buy a lot of grog.

There is also no guarantee of a good game either if the other team is Stoke for example.

He needs to think outside the box does Quinn, half price or discounted beer/snacks/programs for season ticket holders, talk in events exclusively for season ticket holders, raffle for season ticket holders to win your season ticket free(I know 2nd prize two free season tickets before any wagging mag).

There needs to be incentives other than the promise of a football match, run it as a club, get sponsors to give discounts to season ticket holders in return for being an associate of the club - where is the clubs marketing dept - never been the same since Alex King left.
 
“If a core number of people want to start doing it that way instead of coming to support the club, then maybe I’ll have to question my role here.
this makes sense and its typical crap writing that takes a swensible quote and blows it out of context.If the core number starts watching in the pubs we will all quit because the stadiums will be full of kids and the temprance 7, showing my age there.
 
I admire the man for taking a stand. And by Nyall we all should stand, he's our most significant Sunderland demi-god since Stokoe imho. He's right about the atmosphere though, in 1999-2000 that stadium was red hot! (but never so intense and LOUD! as RP)

Isn't it the case that crowds are generally less vociferous than they were?. There aren't that many teams more vocal than us, possibly more so away from home. At least there won't be a ticket price hike next season ;)

Agreed and can't really see what his point is TBH, a lot of people are still feeling the effects of the recession and if you've noticed the attendances are actually creeping up. If they keep playing football like they did yesterday we'll be having sellouts again before too long.
