I support your cause, but I'm telling you now - no football club will pay the blindest bit of attention to a Facebook group, even if you got half a million members (which, let's face it, won't happen). If you want to cause a stir you need to get someone like the Football Supporters' Federation involved - and even they are relatively powerless.

harsh but probably true
fans need a spokesperson, someone well known who is willing to tell it how it is

If you visit their page you will see that the FSF are already involved, there are now several strands of this fight against away ticket prices, we all need to support all of them, and get as many involved as possible, and if folk like Henry Winter support it, then there is a chance something might happen.City Raider said:Falastur said:I support your cause, but I'm telling you now - no football club will pay the blindest bit of attention to a Facebook group, even if you got half a million members (which, let's face it, won't happen).

The new PL TV deal doesn't kick in till next season, so now is a great time to get this linked to the money clubs are getting, and the more onside from all clubs the better.
Its not a time for fans of different clubs to woman at each other, its time to get together and fight.

unfortunately campaigning rarely gets anywhere without figureheads, the campaign needs a celebrity to raise awareness
similar to what oliver did with school dinners - however crass that sounds

Of course, but the focus is on away ticket prices because if away fans are priced out, atmosphere in grounds will suffer (it already has).BlueGMD said:Why all the focus on Away ticket prices? Non season ticket holder home fans are paying these silly prices too. We need to fight for all fans.
Lets fight the small battles first, and keep away fan prices down.
