agree with you.......
no even playing field, richest club wins, simple!
prices go up - didnt think the day would come when 2 of the more expensive sports like playing golf or going diving would be CHEAPER than watching a 90 min football match.
why i decided finally to learn to dive on proper courses and now dive for fun - - still get to the occassional city game, but the passion and soul has gone out of it. Was thouroughly dissapointed with the 90 mins v blackpool....... the pre match drinks in the sunshine with hope and expectation of an "FCR" were more enjoyable than the stark cold daylight of the reality of what I actually found.
I think IF we got promoted I wouldnt bother with have the games (when we DID go up had an away season ticket) - again, most of the hype and excitement about visiting new prem grounds was gone within the first 10-15mins of oaying an average of ?30 to be inside one.
Certainly a promotion push is more exciting than actualy promotion.
But you cant beat the modern market - us alone cant change the way football is today and to challenge we need money. I for one dont care whether its some ruskie, arab or lifelong norfolk business person....
if we want to survive, let alone compeat, we need investment. I dont like it, hence why i dont go much these days....but lifes sucks and we have to get on with it.
FIND AN INVESTER!
