Why?
Fans can attend when they like.
Especially so when treated like a customer by the club.
I used to attend religiously home and away. Not as much these days. Football feels very different to the game I fell in love with. Not helped at all due to owners like Tan.

Yesterday.
Re: Tan out, Dalhman out, the whole board out.
Fans have this misguided notion that because we buy a season ticket we're part of the club. We're not. The entire fanbase could change overnight and as long as they're selling seats and merchandise they don't give a f*ck about us. Just because we care about the club doesn't mean we have any power, say, input or respect. Unless/until clubs are co-owned by local communities and the fanbase then it's just going to get worse.

It's a good point.

Exactly this.
It doesn't matter if you've seen every minute or none.
Tan cares about nothing much but the money you're spending.
Re: Tan out, Dalhman out, the whole board out.
Choo was there yesterday I understand, and maybe goes fairly often, but I don't think Dalman does, and Tan hasn't been for years has he? Alright, there was covid, but even so. If I owned a football club I'd at least go sometimes if I was interested in it.
