    At least the FA says it'll consult with fans. So did Dr A. Who do you believe?

    I hope it's not just season ticket holders. Plenty of exiles like myself are as vehemently anti- name change as anyone. I've emailed the FA my views.

    Which was all said before the FA announcement.

    Jog on, you're boring.

    You do realise the FA are doing consultation?

    Or is your head that far up your arse that you can't see?

    That's a relief, you've been so wrong about everything else, I hope your predictions stay consistent.

    Ah yes, because suddenly backtracking and not doing the fan consultation after announcing you would do it to all major media outlets won't look the slightest bit suspicious would it?


    You might (I can't stress the word might enough there) know more about business, but you clearly know **** all about anything else then.

    I doubt you know the difference between your elbow and your shoulder never-mind business.

    The question is what weight will the FA give to the fans view ?

    The owner certainly wants to change the name, if other stakeholders (eg Sky, BT and Barclays) also have no objection will the fans view
    outweigh that of powerful businesses ?

    20,000 dissenting voices v AA, Sky, BT, Barclays etc ? Only one winner I'm afraid......

    Depends how many of those 20K are Sky BT & Barclay's customers & how much influence & negative attention they can create for these stakeholders.

    Fans have been shat on for decades. Ticket prices, kick-off times, match day policing, etc.

    What makes you believe the FA will put the fans first in this matter ?

    And what makes you so confident they won't?


    Nobody here knows what the FA are thinking, and we won't know for at least a few months.
