Was there something other than this? This is very leading
First time I have seen that interview and that was lead by the reporter, the other interview were Pep leads the question was straight after the match ......
But if Pep seriously thinks the fans wont be up for a derby match he doesnt really know us
Perhaps Pep just needs more guidance from our pr people ...things might get lost in translation
I am going against Utd and I am glad Pep raised the topic. It was disappointing taking your seat against Fulham, and I don't want to see that in a Derby.As a person I’ve never adhered myself to pep since he’s arrived.
Brilliant manager just can’t fake to him as a person

Have the club taken the money for the Real Madrid game from those on the CL scheme yet?
Mine's not been taken. No communication as far as I know as to when it will be taken, so you have to keep half an eye on your finances.

In one way I'm glad he talked about it as it gives me another bit of ammunition to go to the club & talk (again) about their whole strategic approach to building the future fan base.
Not yet, week commencing the 10th Feb, but that's only because were home second. In the years gone by when we were home in the first leg in this round they'd always take a just before Jan pay day which was a ball ache!

Based off everything he's ever said, I think Pep is a bit of an arsehole tbh. Wonderful manager who I'll be eternally grateful to for the football he's brought to us, but he's far from perfect. Almost criminal that he keeps not getting it like this. I think he's incredibly self-absorbed and wouldn't be surprised if it crushes his ego a bit to not always manage in full stadiums.

Of course that is all true, but then there wouldn’t be anything to moan about if people wrapped their heads around that so better to call him a dick, or nob or any other insult they can throw at him.
Sad but true.

The team benefits from a big noisy crowd.Based off everything he's ever said, I think Pep is a bit of an arsehole tbh.

It's a statement of the obvious and timely as we have Utd coming up.

A bit north of 100K
The Richard Mille 'RM27-01 Rafa Nadal' was originally on sale for around €750,000 euros but is now worth somewhere in the region of €1.5 million, if you can find someone to sell you one. Only 50 of this model were made.
The 27-01 made history as the then lightest tourbillon watch ever made, at just 18.83 grams, including the strap.
think the lad in timpson swinton has one ;)

I don’t understand how 40k for a FA cup game against Fulham is embarrassing??. We’re starting to sound like opposition fans crying about empty seats. Every time in a big game the team needed a atmosphere to go with it the fans have always done that. You’d think pep would back the fans for all the support we’ve given him and the team, instead of answering these stupid questions which no other manager gets asked. Like others he’s starting to piss me off too with these comments

Also we have these supporter groups who are trying to improve the atmosphere in the stadium meanwhile we have the club creating a walk to the ground with a brass band......

Laughable coming from Fulham fans I can remember when they got just over 3k for league games.
i remember they brought a out 30 fans to a midweek league cup game the other year

I literally couldn't give a shit if I was the only person there. Where were all these people moaning when we got just over 52,000 people in to watch a League 2 side in the FA Cup 3rd round?
In a week where the club want fans to fork out approx. £35 for United and £50-£60 for Madrid (that's just for one ticket, so obviously looking at a lot more to buy a couple more tickets), I'm pretty sure the last thing on people's minds is wanting to pay more money to watch Fulham at home when it's on BBC1 on a Sunday afternoon?
Colin Bell Level 3 wasn't open at all today and Fulham brought less than half of SSL3. Fair play to the ones that made the trip but they've never been famous for their fantastic away support have they, either? Obviously that had an impact on the attendance as well.
Roll on Wednesday when we can still moan about getting a 50000 attendance after we smash that lot down the road.
they brought less than 1 tier

You can certainly understand why Pep is hoping for a better turnout for a Derby and wants our support to get behind the team.
.
The best incentive for derby attendance would be the knowledge that the team will turn up for more than 45 minutes.
We went on the beach second half last time. Previous time they ripped us to shreds first half because of Keystone Cops defending. Then there was the 2-3. Going further back, we threw a league cup tie, paving the way for Mourinho to go on and win it.
Understanding local rivalry would a step forward. These games are different. We don’t show mercy against our quiet neighbours. We don’t bull up their istree or the GPC’s achievements. It’s a game where we don’t prioritise the following match. If we’re 2-0 up, we go for 4. If we’re 9-0 up we go balls out for 10.
A crushing victory on Wednesday would do much to put the current hoo-hah back in its box.

No problem with him talking about attendances, if he does it in a non-dickhead way. There's loads of ways he could have said it less annoyingly.

Judging by posts on here, I thought they were taking it much earlier, before the end of Jan payday?
