£20 to sit/stand in the south stand or kop on Saturday which i actually happen to think is very reasonable, hence i will be attending. Category A against Donny i think is overpriced therefore have chosen not to attend. Fairly simple approach.

hluck - tusc started the name calling by accusing me of being a liar and carries on with his "reinvention" thread. I think he is deluded.

He won't argue on facts or on the issue, he is solely trying to discredit me. It's a typical trait of gutless and spineless no-marks. Politicians do it all the time when they don't have an argument.

As such, I will return his spineless little snipes as I desire.

Let's imagine the effects of a boycott for a moment. Where would the income come from to pay the hundreds of staff at ER who are just doing their jobs. Forget the Chairman, Chief exec and Directors,I'm talking about all the auxiliary staff form the players and coaches, all the way down to the tea lady. Boycotting might give you a sense that you are hurting Bates but in reality your putting everyone else at risk of losing their lively hoods due to financial restraints. We all know very well that the prices are too high and not everyone can afford them, me included, but there has to be another way of voicing your concerns without resorting to such extreme measures that will serve only to hurt everyone besides bates and his buddy's.

How come your so concerned about the staff, but couldn't care less about your fellow fans not being able to afford to watch their team and who have being keeping the 100's of staff in work all these years.
You pompous I'm alright jack's.

Rich. Where in that post did I say that I couldn't care less for my fellow fans? I am one of the many who have been out priced and can't go due to finances. That does not mean I would take my anger and frustration out on the innocents within the club. They are the wrong targets and the only ones that would suffer. Bates and his buddy's will remain wealthy regardless of what happens to the clubs finances due to falling income so why call me pompous for worrying about the future of the innocent staff?

Bywaer,
I am not boycotting ER to hurt ken Bates, I am trying my best not to spend any money at the club because I don't like nor agree with the prices being charge for match day and season ticket's. I wouldn't shop at say Aldi's if they where charging more than Harrods.
Sorry I was calling the supporter's who say they can afford to go so sod their fellow fans. God I miss going so much but each week it gets easier and will not return until the product fits the price.
