Just seen this for the first time... wow.
We are supporters not customers
Also perhaps clubs should use the money to help improve grass roots football in their communities? I dunno, almost like clubs actually have a responsibility to help local areas and are more than just stadiums hoovering any spare cash from working people to go to the place with has been a massive part of their lives. As we've established, the youth system in this country is fundamentally broken, perhaps some of the money could go toward that?
Football Clubs are so much than just businesses. That argument holds absolutely no water. They are the fans, their identity, huge social pillar in communities, local sense of belonging, they unite genders, races, sexualities from across society. To side with Scudamore misses entirely what football clubs actually are.
Most will probably freeze a section and hike the rest of them, and then use the frozen cheaper seats as an example of reaching out to people
But if Arsenal do then holy guacamole. Issue is if more clubs follow their example

Ralf Rangnick about RB Leipzig coach Zorniger, a week ago:
"We would be mentally ill to think about a different coach after these two and a half years."
Today, Zorniger got fired
what a club, run by people that call themselves mentally ill

Sakho's been proper shaky the last 2 games

I'm not complaining about the size, more about the missions. Bigger might make it even worse actually
I hope they get creative with them, which I'm sure they will.
anyway, GZ as a standalone game, was shit. A good looking well made piece of shit mind you
Still the best stealth gameplay actually. All the strange Splinter Cell games are now basically on rails third person shooters.

Maybe 30 plus years ago, but now clubs are global brands. Scudamore completely gets what football clubs are all about. Football is not a need, it is a want.
yeah, the game mechanics were fucking incredible. I was surprised at how well everything controlled, because that's a first in a Metal Gear game! :lol
You can have an international presence and not alienate what football clubs are actually about; the fans
See: Germany

I'm more offended by your tlou comments.
Anyway Zamps really isn't that great at milking the price. Always ends up with way less than reported and often down right laughable money (like Sirigu).
I will not have your silent hill 2 trolling anymore. I need to draw a line

YES YES YES
He's the closest we can get to Heynckes' style of football.

It should be.
I think Carlo wants to win something with a Bundesliga team. Don't know how much pr talk it was of him but it sounds like he is interested in Bayern sometime in the future.

He just wants an easy semi-retirement.

It was when Fabio did it.
Although I can't remember if he was the last man on that occasion.

I had typed up a long reply, but it was a bit of a mess, that even was referencing gladiators, and I never tend to be the most articulate of posters.
((I think we both are just on the complete opposite end of the spectrum, you the lower league hipster who feel the clubs owe you a sense of community
and me the big league wanker who feels the clubs owe me nothing but win at all cost I wonder who Real will ditch after they buy him.

As a foreign follower of the EPL how exactly are fans being alienated in England? Genuinely curious with this question. Watching on my TV I still see stadiums full of people and that will continue even if ticket prices go up.

You obviously don't watch City play
The stadiums might be full up with people, but they're people like Shanks D Zoro, and nobody wants that. Nobody.

Middle/Upper Class people can afford those tickets.
Somewhere in the middle.
Football in England was a working class game. Now it's £60 per match and £1000 season tickets, whilst the Premier League's TV revenue soars to £5bn or whatever.

Tongue in cheek m8. But ticket prices are obscene and Arsenal are the worst. I'm not particularly receptive to supply and demand justifications for it either (if you are ok as being defined as a consumer then whatever)
It is incredibly expensive to follow your team. Shit, I'd wager we pay more to get the 3 or so games a week on Sky than anywhere else in the world does to get all 10 games per week. If you attend your teams home games, add anywhere from £400-1500 a year on to that. If you follow away games? Thousands more. And if your club is in a relatively remote area? Even more.
Over the last 25 years, ticket prices have risen at 500-1000% the rate of inflation.
Football is famous for being the sport of the working-class. It's not anymore.

Thats Serie A doe, can he do it on a rainy Tuesday night in Stoke?

Okay I guess that makes sense.
It's pretty expensive here to see NFL and NBA games in person too so now you know our pain Brits. Well, expect for the lack of coverage on TV. I'm in Canada and I get to see all 10 games live on TV and those channels are dirt cheap. But that might be because games are on anywhere from 7:30am to 2:30pm and nothing else is on lol.
A large amount of them are just tourists and day trippers, and whilst there's nothing wrong with those groups, they don't make for much of an atmosphere
Get BT on my laptop because I use their broadband anyway. Don't pay extra, wouldn't if I had to.
