It's started already with Newcastle.
Warren Barton on Sky this morning saying Newcastle won't have any trouble selling out every game, not like City.
"Even Pep has come out and said the fans don't turn up for their games. But Newcastle has a bigger fan base than City, and were getting 52k in the second tier."
Absolute bollocks of course. And that's not what Pep said. But it's clear that's the narrative the football world believes and is running with.
Another PR disasterclass by the club. The way the club hang us out to dry with the ticket office fiasco and do nothing to defend the fans in the media, it's almost as if the club want to alienate the local fans..
