What was the crowd on for that one? Alty are 'sleeping giants' and with Jose's mob stinking the city out you would expect a few more to bale out and support FC.

We're getting 1700 for home games, high for non league but way down on our peak from previous years.

I'd rather any bailees wait a couple of months at least before watching us, the standard of football at the moment is appalling. Manager resigned last night.

I think it might all end in tears for FC, all good intentions at the start, have the absent fans dumped their beliefs and pissed off back to OT?

The euphoria of the new ground didn't last long. A bitter war of infighting drove many good people away and we're left with big debts to service on the ground build. Any default and Manchester City Council will take control. There endeth any notion of fan control.

The upside is we muddle through a few years,get the debts under control and have a bigger player wage budget. The problem is you're invariably up against teams with owners with deep pockets.

Are you a ST Holdo?

Do they still do the option of fixed-price or pay extra?

It's £100 for an adult season ticket, they ask for a donation on top if you can afford one.

I bought a 3 year one a year ago for a grand. There were a few extras thrown in but it was a payment to help finance the club.

That's what my mate does.
One of the extras was a mug, I think.
