Next match: Pre-season. Saturday, July 11th | FC Midtjylland (H) @ Cardiff City Stadium, 12:30pm -
All pre-season fixtures
Thanks.
What’s needed is the match cancelled and the three points awarded to Liverpool and/ or a twelve point deduction from Manchester United next season.
It's highly unlikely UK football can go down the 50+1 route because it would mean undoing so much of past three decades in football and fans accepting their clubs becoming less able to purchase best players from Europe for £100million plus.
While there are football fans desperate for game to improve ticket prices, representation for women's game, fair compensation for buying young players and not hoarding talent etc. there are also a huge number of fans who don't like the Super League but also don't like that their owners haven't spent as Man City and Chelsea have: seemingly never ending cheque-books and almost always leading to success.
There is also a detained Russian politician who has asked UK to impose sanctions on Roman Abramovich due to close ties to Putin's faux democracy government and yet Roman is one of the most popular owners in UK football. No conversation about the Super League, as far as I can tell, has included talk about how UK football is currently funded.
Funny. Good on them I was wondering when they would have a protest, is this there first home game since the greed fest?
Publicity and disruption was the aim....
I don't see how the game being called off will affect the owners as it was a postponement and not a cancellation meaning TV money is secure.
Well, we don’t know yet. Unless the Premier league want this to happen again they must act to punish the club, and a good start would be to award the points to Liverpool.
The club might be sued for loss of income by tv companies world wide and I hope by the poor buggers who’ve had their cars and property damaged or been assaulted during this incident.
If the club can’t provide security and safety for the general public then they shouldn’t be allowed to hold football games there. Possibly then , they should have to play all games next season behind closed doors in addition to a points deduction.
Would we put up with their owners idiosyncrasies if they spent £719 Million on players?
I think I would .
Of course we would , in our own small way we have succumb to a millionaire propping us up and allowing us to compete more effectively within our league, its just a lesser value than the UTD's of this world .
I've enjoyed his support that has allowed some success.
Rebrand aside. Tan has done well for us.
Certainly not been a selling club, then again we haven’t had a player of any. note that any other club has wanted to buy
