It seems impertinent to ‘like / thank’ your post above JI but I’m sure many others share the sentiments.

I was referring to plastic fans from provincial towns supporting big clubs and said just that to be fair. Nowhere have I said that people aren’t entitled to like, love, dislike and hate any team they want. Just my opinion but with particular reference to Liverpool hating Man U fans. You know, the thrust of the topic you started? Thank you.

As the Americans say: ‘go figure’.

Good piece by the Cod’s Chairman here:
Compare and contrast:
“As an entrepreneur with a decent record of building and exiting businesses I am often asked about the secret of success in business. I tell people there is no secret but the clues that seem to improve your odds are all about culture – focus on building a culture of high trust and clear values, foster an attitude of continuous learning and most importantly be prepared to put the required effort in. Or in other words, trust, talent and graft.”
Why don’t some of you find another hobby that gives you more enjoyment. I don’t think Football is for you.
I offered some constructive thoughts on sales with a positive ending and that’s your response? Ah well.

Nice day for a bit more pedantry eh awaywego? 🤣👍. You’ll be waiting a long-time if you think I’m going to start listing on social media the places I’ve been to and might be going back to (some nutters around you know). However, I can tell you they were Counties level 9 and 10 grounds. One place I had a gourmet quarter pounder with salad and relishes (£5). Another place I had 2 burritos (£5.50). Both pop up stands in the ground next to the pitch. It can be done and probably a lot easier at 9-10 level. And yes, I’d pay £5.50 for 2 good quality sausages on decent bread with relishes.

He’s introduced enough sausages during his tenure awaywego. Lol.

Agree with Captain Cod, I’d rather pay another £1.50 for decent food than paying £4 for absolute rubbish.
Regarding the rest of his post, ignore awaywego CC, he’d pick a scrap with himself if there was no one else around! There’s always one though. I’m sure your meaningful contributions are welcomed by many on here. It’s good to have a bit of variety and input from friendly rival fans and chew the cud with them. Don’t let one person’s antagonism put you off posting in future. UTI
‘Real fans got to and into the game ok’
It appears you’re wrong about that too awaywego. Listen to the numerous Spanish journalists and fans about their similar experiences. You might also want to checkout the head of the Football Supporters Europe Association guy and what he has to say about it all. Widely reported now. Not difficult to find. Are all these independent and impartial reporters in collusion to try and get the blame shifted off Liverpool fans? Not a chance. Unfortunately for those who want to claim Liverpool fans are always crying the victim, reputation always proceeding them, etc, it’s okay to admit that this time, you got it wrong. In this day and age of filming/ social media, they can’t get away with blaming someone else for their organisational errors and failings like Uefa, the French police and government are doing. Every embarrassing lie they tell digs a deeper and deeper hole.
That’s funny, wonder why you can find this on the Wiki Hillsborough page?
‘In addition to the “unlawful killing” verdict, the jury concluded that “errors or omissions” by police commanding officers, Sheffield Wednesday, the ambulance service and the design and certification of the stadium had all “caused or contributed” to the deaths, but that the behaviour of football supporters had not.’
