Unfortunatley Stan it's the likes of you faz and coolflames that will pay through the nose.

It is no longer a game for the working man and you are
absolutely right we will soon all be watching the game on telly as the teams play in empty stadiums.

Supporters can no longer relate to multi-millionaires who have achieved nothing. Jonjo Shelvey's two recent hissey-fits sums up the modern footballer for me perfectly.
Huge ego, empty trophy cabinet.

Did I mention any group?
I said fan ownership, the Bayern Munich setup is an example.

It would take a far bigger group than SOS in fairness, unlikely to ever happen.

I have a question for you SP, and for all you match going fans...since you obviously feel that prices are too high and you are being driven out, why do you still attend? Why not send the owners a message by boycotting the games? The only message they will react to is the one that hits them on the pockets. I will never understand how a group of fans can complain and complain about something yet do absolutely nothing to try and change it. I am not having a go at you or anyone else, just genuinely interested in what is stopping you?

If the fans don't send out a clear message to the ownership by boycotting the games, nothing will change...so why are they not doing it?

At the game on Monday bitterly cold...
[oops] performance...the crowd were dead...as in quiet...
I'd prefer louder fans in the stadium...and less commercial partners and big wigs etc....weren't a lot to shout about though to be honest..

Think the ticket buying system is disgraceful

I may stop my season ticket but it will be because can no longer afford it and to be honest no longer enjoy it I don't think the game is as good as it was.

But to explain i go with a small group of friends and we have gone together for almost 30 years to anfield and before that I went on my own for 15 years. That is a lifetime and many memories of events in that time including the horror of hillsborough and the amazement of Istanbul and many finals and great games at anfield including the famous st etienne five nil of forest auxere and many others too many to mention. If I gave up my season ticket in protest I would not see my friends at the game and I would not get tickets. So it's a big decision. Do you not see for many people following the club is more than an interest it's almost a way of life. Do you think we can abandon that for some casual protest ? No disrespect you are a true fan but unless you can visualise what I am saying then you don't have a concept of what it means to follow thus great club. I don't mean that harshly but at least you have seen the ground and hence have some concept

stanley I don't want to fan the flames here but have you noticed the people who tell you to stop going or stop complaining e.t.c are all people who don't actualy attend games themselves so they have'nt a clue the seriousness of such flippant remarks. I understand exactly what you are saying about it being more than just 90 mins and ure right it goes much deeper than that as in friends, family, workplace, barber shops, cabbies, strangers in a pub loads of people want to talk about football either Liverpool or Everton if you live in the City like me, you just can't switch it on or off like a tap, if you are ingrained in going the match like you and me and faz for over 35 years its part of you...

That comment made me so angry cool and sad too. This is not an out of town thing either because as you know I am an OTT myself. It makes me sad because that way of life is going to be replaced by what I am not sure. A 90 minute TV programme ?

And let's get once thing clear as an OTT everybody is welcome but the game is about support and yes you can do that 8000 miles away (I have done so myself) but the heart of the club s it's people and that collects at the games, if the future is isolated individuals watching through a TV screen it will fail.
