Wouldn't it be a good thing for Irish soccer if the punters acted in unison ...... and stayed away. The coterie of suits, blazers and, jerseys (yes!) aught to be given a signal that they don't have a God given right to our time and money. Not to mention the cost of blood pressure tablets.
Beginning to feel that way about all top level sport. Spent €160 on two tickets to the rugby on Saturday. Aside from the rubbish game which you accept as part of sport, the whole experience was a let down. Packed trains (no extra commuter or darts put on), no water in the toilets in the Hogan Stand, power cuts which meant one big screen didn't work and the other flickered on and off, a programme that cost €6 (I didn't buy one but I would have liked to have if it was reasonable price) and rubbish atmosphere.
I gave my four tickets back to the FAI in a mini-protest after the last match at croke park. The dont care about the fans anymore, its all about selling as many tickets in advance and getting the money in. Who cares who the opposition is and what team they bring over.
"Oh and lets not appointed a new manager yet and get them fools to buy tickets to watch the Brazil youth team play in Dublin.." The FAI are laughing at us all
That would be my attitude as well.
I'd love to go and see a Brazil team playing in the flesh but the fact that i had to buy 4 tickets for that match and another 4 tickets for the Serbia match, a match that most of the premiership players wont bother playing in as they will be on their summer holidays from their clubs makes it even more of a waste of a game and a waste of money in my opinion.
