    Something nobody has picked up on:

    If you want to play a top team at home in a friendly, you pay for their travel, accommodation, and in some cases an appearance fee.

    Put that against the cost of policing, stewards etc, and the miniscule revenue brought in from a few thousand at £10 a head……it ends up costing the club money to host the game.

    Even before you consider the issue of protecting the playing surface, financially it’s not worth it.

    Now that, sir, is a balanced argument. It really is a pity that some others here cannot put is as eloquently.

      I’m not agreeing one way or another here but many teams have arranged home friendlies without much fuss for over 100 years.

      What a journey!

        Let’s invite Real Madrid like Bournemouth did last season and had to charge in the region of £60 an ticket :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:

        #132002

        The match sold out – Bournemouth fans queued overnight to buy tickets. The newly-completed south stand brought the capacity up to almost 12,000.

        Tickets cost £60 for adults, £45 for concessions, £30 for under-16s and £80 for executive seats, with a £5 reduction for season ticket holders.

        You live in Cloud Cuckoo Land pal. And learn how to read. I talked about major decisions. When it comes to what colour seats we should have in the stadium or what names we should give to the mascots then, quite rightly, the clubs lets the fans have a say. When it comes to the club’s finances and doing what is best for the team again, quite rightly, they won’t give your opinions a moment’s thought. What makes you think you are remotely qualified to advise them?

        Stick to drinking Skol.

        I hold a highly responsible position at work, these days. I wouldn’t employ you to sweep the car park.

        Ooh, get you. I find that that those that brag about their academic qualifications know deep down that they’re not worth the paper they’re written on.

        The rest of your post was just crap. Don’t try to be funny. You really can’t do it.[/quote]

        I certainly have nothing else to say to you, what on earth’s the point? Grow up and go away, you’re as bad as that other old imbecile.

          Wiganers would not pay £60 to watch us play in a friendly.

          You just cant help yourself can you, you really are a big headed prick who needs to grow up, and from what I am told you are not exactly in the first flush of spring yourself.

          I thought this was it. I’m confused now. :(

          Never claimed to be in the first flush of youth. I’m 49, so what? Glad to see you’re still asking and talking about me away from here, though – no wonder I’m a big-headed prick with all this time you keep spending on me.

          As long as tits like you, and that other proper old twat, keep rising to it then I’ll keep winding you up. It keeps me entertained in moments of down-time at work. The fact that it clearly pisses you off only amuses me more.

          Not only a big headed prick but a sad prick as well, if you think anything you say or do pisses me off you are deluded, the devil wont get the last word with me let alone a child like you, one last thing, I don’t seek any information whatsoever about you, you would be shocked how many people you consider mates volunteer the most inane trivia about you for reasons I used to find difficult to comprehend, but perhaps your behaviour on here answers the reasons behind it.

          None of my mates (apart the odd Ashton-based acquaintances in your away coach travel fraternity) even know who you are, let alone would bother their arses to talk to you about me.

          Anybody else who has talked to you about me doesn’t know me very well at all. And I really don’t give a flyer what they, or you, think. Not sure how many times I have to repeat that.

          And in any case, we have already established that you’re a liar, so that little lot you just wrote is probably all bollocks. Not that it matters, as I say.

          Established when and where, bold statement, please enlighten me.

          There is only one liar when we cross paths, and you and I both know who that is, my old mum used to have a statement when I was growing up, never tell lies it makes your hair fall out, how apt.
