Pep: 'The players deserve a full stadium, we need our fans!'

[gkmcfc]

Comments are about empty seats and not selling out.

Like Everton in the league cup when over 50k were there.

I'm not averse to empty seats but when the club have priced as as well as they have what do they have to do to get fans through the door?

I went, with both of my littleuns, the south stand was great tonight.

It's a real mission for people mid week, I get that, but fuck me....the best players we have ever had, playing the best football we have ever seen, and so many just can't be arsed

It's not the money for the majority, it's being arsed, simple as that

Weird!

Bournemouth at home on Saturday, and it will sell out. 54,000+. Especially after tonight's performance.

Expect the odd remaining seats in each block to go over the coming days.

The football world has lost touch with the reality of the lives of it's fans, most of whom are ordinary working people struggling to make ends meet. There was some talk on the radio today about Championship clubs charging £40 a go to watch them. It's fucking bonkers.

leeds v blackburn £40

To be honest I think evyone wants a solution, the fans, Pep, the players, the club. Nothing's impossible to solve and it needs a solution but that's only possible if the problem is evident and then discussed at all levels. There's so many varying points on here that there's no one singular cause that jumps out. If it's solely down to cost then that's the negotiation required with the club. Negotiate to lower the prices or offer other incentives as no doubt the club would prefer every seat filled and spending at the stadium but somehow I can't see it being that simple.

I know what you are trying to say but the opposition should not really be a factor. As a fan I am going to see my team play and, right now, it is brilliant to watch them and see the incredible improvement of our team. I just cannot wait to see the next game they play, irrespective of the opposition, and the brilliant entertainment they are now providing.

I miss the corpse and his gratuitous use of the word 'important' :-(

make it ten quid for a game wed sell out in hours and have an amazing atmosphere. tonight was well priced and it showed in the type of fan who went, obviously postponement made it difficult to get a full ground tonight though

I agree about the booing, it's got childish now and we just look like dickheads.
