Must be mistaken mate, cos I’m assured (on here) he never put a foot right. I don't think anyone has ever said that first season was anything other than fantastic. It was after the Hull game that it all unravelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was a tenner a ticket there’d have been quite a few extra thousand sold though? May not have been a sell out still but it’d have been a lot bigger than this. I agree that price isn’t the main reason that fans aren’t going but the club underestimated the current level of apathy among the fanbase when putting the tickets on sale for this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have done it as a 10er a ticket and given City half the south stand or the grandstand.

Currently has a less competitive title race than in Scotland - infact points wise its the least competitive in Europe - and it’s absolutely turgid week in week out.

Lincs Owl Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 53 minutes ago, Sonny said: Amazing that Man City aren’t a big enough draw, and I blame the sorry state of football and our owner for that rather than pointing the finger at our fans. I’ve genuinely no interest in watching us play Man City, the champions of England. One of the least appealing clubs in the least appealing league. Give over. City were a big club even when they were in the 3rd tier, losing at home to Stockport County (which they did, 1-2). They were lucky in that they got rich owners and could spend. We got rich owners and couldn't spend, due to FFP. It's the Wednesday way. We could have signed Messi as a lad and he would probably have fallen in the Don and drowned.

I apologise Last time Rangers or Celtic failed to win the league was 1984-5 when Aberdeen won it. Under Alex Ferguson I believe. Got to admit I'd sooner watch a full blooded Hibs v Hearts Edinburgh derby than a tippy tappy Arsenal v Chelsea match. But maybe I've just got used to watching us. Anyway back to Owls v Man C......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
