I don't have an issue with people who like it, just have no intention of being blinded by someone's loose change (seen it as a copper).
You can afford the prices of the tickets, but my point was all the thousands who can't or shouldn't (money for bills, kids clothes, food, rent etc).
Week in week out, they pay their dough to fund an extravagant lifestyle for a few men to only spend 90 minutes kicking a bag of leather round, before jumping into their blacked-out windowed RR Vogues, and flee the area that the supporters (wage providers) live, to go to their iron gated, leafy suburb mansion (as well as funding some silicone enhanced thrush mongerer and her Harvey Nicks habit)
Are they really worth paying thousands of pounds a WEEK? In todays economic climate?
I just see them as fleecing money off the poor to feed the rich. IMO.

PaulB said:No, you're wrong there. Whatever else you might say about him, he most certainly CAN play football. I love watching him as he's a real live-wire that always gives what the fans want; VFM. I liken him to a shook up bottle of coke. He's lively, fizzy and spectacular but you end up having to clean up the mess afterwards.
Wigsie said:How is that a good thing? he is a shocking role model, a violent and abusive moron, I should have said shouldn't be playing football infront of the public! Either way, he is not consistant enough for the money in my mind.
