I assume most of the money is made in the bar before the game and then some more at half time.
You think per head, every person spends more than their 60, 70, 80 quid or more ticket price on food & drink each weekend?
Can't see it somehow.

That would only have to happen once before they started appearing in the Spurs shop for double the price. No way Levy misses out on a revenue-generating idea like that, even if the joke's at his expense.Nah, not fair on the players.
Mobilize the crowd to wear bald skull caps for the first 14 minutes of every home game, to represent the 14 years we've gone without a trophy.
Considering his response to me, it seems like some of our "supporters" are just trolls that want to get a rise out of people who care about the club. They would rather just double down on their positions for the sake of argument or trolling rather than look at the reality of the situation.Not that bad? Our biggest rivals are looking like they are going to win a title while we haven't won a significant pot since 1990/91 when we had Gazza and Gary fucking Lineker playing..
Our best player is running his contract down and our second best player has forgotten how to play football, we are slipping further off top 4 and have gone something like 876 games since we last even bothered to play a first half.
I get some people are glass half full and others half empty but fuck me this is about as bad as it gets
You're right, honestly, when did we start supporting an investment company rather than a football club?Our fanbase has lost the fucking plot
You know what really emboldens them? Having a new manager every 12 months, being known as failures because the owners care more about the NFL and events than they do about the actual football club and the fact that our supporters still believe we are doing things "the right way" and worship ENIC like it's a cult.No, because it hurts the team and emboldens the opposition fans.
Of course; I get it. And it’s not that I’m ‘against’ it.You know what really emboldens them? Having a new manager every 12 months, being known as failures because the owners care more about the NFL and events than they do about the actual football club and the fact that our supporters still believe we are doing things "the right way" and worship ENIC like it's a cult.
That's what makes them really laugh at us.
I think the point is though, mid-game, the cameras and broadcasters will really focus on it, it will have an impact and get them talking about how fans are walking out in disgust because of the owners etc.Of course; I get it. And it’s not that I’m ‘against’ it.
But I’d prefer to see half empty stadiums as opposed to an actual demonstration mid-game.
Sure they didn't just go for a beer?I remember the fans organised a similar thing a Valencia. On some symbolic minute (relatively near half time, say the 37th minute) the entire stand, upper and lower tiers, behind the goal waked out, and I mean everybody. The Spanish commentators, who studiously avoid any mention of protests or controversy in general, had to explain it as the once full stand was left completely empty. I can't remember what they were protesting about, but it was damned impressive.
Somewhat less impressive was seeing 95% back in their places after the break.

Why is it that every time a poster posts something that doesn't meet with what you people design as the "correct response," you pounce on them like a fat kid on a birthday cake?You know what really emboldens them?

Daniel says we tried for Kail'ma De Shakti...we really did. But the club wanted it all paid in one instalment and there where concerns about whether he'd fit it to team structure and such like....I'd prefer it if everyone just slowly chants "Kali Ma, Shakti De" while this guy wanders up to Daniel
