    Indeed, but it would be nice if that was made easier to do, rather than repeatedly made more difficult.

    I reckon a fair few people are just bored of the anti owner noises from certain quarters, that on several occasions turned out to be misguided.

    I reckon most people want to turn up, watch the game and go home/to pub, without the 'politics' and back seat businessmen becoming the focus.

    I thought with your insider knowledge that you would know this is policy at all Football League grounds this season and nothing to do with 'vindictive Anti-Allam policies' ? The only vindictiveness I see is your constant negativity and the spreading of half truths and hatred towards them. Have you ever met them ? Have you ever spoke to them on civil terms face to face ?

    Seems we're getting bogged down again. Is it the council's fault, is it the Allams fault, is it just us that don't allow flasks or is it lots of clubs. None of that matters. Fact is our crowds are appalling and we need to sort it. The club has to convince people to come and support City, the only question that matters is how. Arguing about what other external factors might be to blame is a distraction from actually addressing the problem.

    Not true. There's no such restriction at Fulham tomorrow and other clubs expressly state the opposite - 'supporters are permitted to enter the stadium with flasks and home-prepared foods. This includes packed lunches, sandwiches, crisps, chocolate bars, biscuits and soft drinks (glass bottles not permitted)'.

    I met Assem at the name change meeting and I had a meeting with Ehab when he wrongly banned me from the stadium, both meetings were as a result of their poor decision making.

    No chance of Andre Gray coming with his child about to be born - he will want to be London based

    He's on £70k a week, I don't really think it matters where he fancies going, it quite obviously wouldn't be to us.

    We missed the boat on Andre Gray when Burnley gazumped us at the last minute. I was told from a very reliably source that the deal was a bit dodgy to say the least.

    Which is probably where we'll finish. Is it a tad presumptuous to expect a higher gate?

    Or presumptions to expect a higher league finish based on the level of support?

    You could be right, although I suspect if they came again they’d find there’s barely a mention of the Allams at the ground.
    Even if there is an anti Allam song it’s only a few people and over in seconds and everyone just seems to get on with it.
    The crowd isn’t anything like this ‘place’ at all (well some bits of it are like some of us…but you know what I mean)
    I personally enjoyed the days of protests in the ground, but they’re over as far as I can see.

    That's possibly true, but without going in to the ground, people will base their opinions on what's on twitter, facebook etc, where there is still a noisy group blaming and accusing, and that is simply divisive, as there is rarely any constructive element to the text.

    Yeah I know it’s a catch 22 really which is why I mentioned it
    All social media, here included, is a place of extreme views, but real life is generally more reasonable (not all the time obviously)
