I pay what I can afford,so its not a case of I`m alright jack.However I would never dream of moving to be near A.N.Other,but some people want the best of both worlds,cheap seats and sit with the same people.The club will ultimately help as many as they can,but for the same shit (not by you) to kept being spouted "loyalty" is just a poor excuse.
No, I think it's more a case of people wanting no more than what they already have, and which they are about to be denied through a decision of the club (no matter how well intentioned, and I do believe it is well intentioned). I will add it's also what people already had when things weren't so great and these wonderful loyal new corporate supporters were nowhere to be seen.
In the words of Sheikh Mansour "We are very aware that without you there would not be a club to buy, and your voice will be heard by the organisation at the highest level.".
We always knew that success would bring day trippers,hangers on,plastics,johnny come latelys,call them whatever you want,so to help combat that the Club decide to help as many types of supporters,by expanding the stadium.
Our Club have been shit on from a great height by Twattini,and unless we do something to help finance new players,salaries etc,we stand still and become a sleeping giant once more.
How many times have you read it on these forums ref Uniteds Corporate pulling powers and the financial clout they get from it and when we get the financial figures each year,do we supporters moan at the lack of Corporate Income.
Yes it`s not what we want as ordinary fans,but we let the powers that be make decisions that should help determine what level of Club do we want to be.I`m fucked if I want to see us back and to in different leagues and with bog standard players,after being delighted with something we`ve never,ever had before,World Class Players.
Decisions will have to be made by individuals on their own personal financial circumstances,but hell to talk about walking away,when finance ain`t the problem,is something that I certainly wouldn`t be in a rush to do,irrespective of where I sat in the stadium.
