Yes I’d give the cost of match ticket to a local Manchester charity. At least you know where it’s going to instead of it finding it’s way into an FA members back pocket.Boycott the game.
This is the perfect opportunity for us to make a stand.
Granted, there will be some who have match going records to keep and there will also be some who just can’t not be there. But for the rest, if we stay away in large numbers, people will take note and things might change.
Can you imagine Bayern or Dortmund supporters accepting this? From speaking to them on our numerous trips over, they would happily stay away to make a point.
We need our most influential supporters and fan groups to jump on this. I’ll happily give the price of my match ticket to a local charity or even City in the Community than bend head over heels to get there and back just because some clown at the FA hasn’t given us a second thought.
They took about 5k compared to 30k + at previous Wembley play offs. I would say that’s a bloody good statement.Blackpool fans organised a boycott of there play off final, think it was Exeter, in protest at the hated Oyston regime. Mixed result at best enough joined in to deny Blackpool the huge level of support they should of had, but enough attended to stop it being an effective statement.My mate a fan of more than 55 years standing went even though he had made himself miserable boycotting home games and watching them away. As well as the fans boycotting Pep should play the development squad that would piss the FA and Sky right off.
Poor take. If you want to go, that’s fine, you do that. However, this is the perfect opportunity to take a stand and show the FA we’re fucking sick of their shit.No need to dress not going as a boycott. If you don't want to go don't go. The kick off time is poor but I will go because I want to. Villa Park is a shithole anyway.

If it was a Saturday or even an earlier kick off on Sunday, I’d have been there. However, 17:30 on a Sunday when we have work the following day and there’s two trains to catch is an absolute joke.
We face a several hour coach journey home, not getting back until the early hours, simply to appease the TV companies.
As I say, if you want to go, you do you, but don’t stand in the way of those that are sick of it and wish to make their views known.
