I think the 14k for a cup game reflects many things, current economy trouble
the fact it wasn't a season ticket game, the fa cup isn't loved enough anymore etc etc
I don't think it was a direct "I'm not going until Roeder is sacked" message
The worse bit about that cup game, is Roeder played the team people wanted to see, Lupoli got 90minutes, Cort got 90minutes. In a one off game, he put the side out that many in large groups wanted to see. Then when it lost, there wasn't a collective "oh, it's not as easy as it looks", it was all "right that's it, giving my season ticket back until roeder is sacked"
It's that very threatening attitude, and that ultimatum style support as to the reason where we are
It's all a bit too conditional
