It made a huge impact, but then, looks like you don't watch the news.
depends what u mean by huge impact I suppose 8k leaving out of 44k isn't as much considering everyone is supposed to be behind this protest,


The big impact is on the news/social media and the club management looking into it, understand. I would suggest you read the news a bit.
the club was hardly not going to open talks so I wouldn't call that s breakthrough really,the rumours I have heard is the Club wanted to introduce a sweet spot ticket price of 65 quid but to bring that out would of caused the same outcry as the 77 quid one so what they did was ask for a highly inflated ticket price being 77 quid then negotiating with the fanbase to 65 quid and that way they get the increased Ticket price they wanted and the fan groups think they have a moral victory by getting the club to reduce the cost, everyone's a winner in theory, that's what's going around where I am anyway...

But if there was no protest, the 77 quid would have stayed, no? So there was an impact. Sorry, you are trying hard, but not getting anywhere.

ok so where do u stand on the increase then do you want cheaper tickets and the top class players no longer arriving at the club or do you want higher prices and be competitive for top four the club not me says you can't have both...

The revenue we get from tickets is negligible now compared to what we get from the rising tv deals which get bigger every year. The walkout was ugly and probably contributed to the collapse, but it was necessary.

so why don't fans target the real cause of the increase which is greedy players, why not boo every touch of the ball a player has, they will soon get the message about there greed...

I don't accept this argument. Bayern Munich's tickets are cheaper than ours, and they have arguably the most complete team in the world with far mre world class players than ourselves. Their most expensive tickets are 70 Euros (50 quid) for the seats along the sides, and tickets behind the goals are 35 Euros (28 quid). They also have standing tickets for 15 Euros (12 Quid). Most of their season tickets include travel as well.

If they can do it, why can't we?

I love the history and passion of English football, but the German model is going to leave England in the dust.

FSG still have time to make this right. If they apologize by dropping the price to something reasonable, then fair play. They can choose to be on the right side of history or the wrong side.
