If the Rebels pull this off I think this will start a back to the roots movement. What cock would carry on paying £50 to watch millionaire rapists when you can pay a tenner to stand on terraces and watch local football?

 

[Pickman's model]

what cock indeed?

that'll massively improve their support too I reckon, I know when I lived there, I often fancied going along, but was put off by the trek to Gigg Lane.

The type who wears a g&g scarf, sings anti glazer songs, wears a replica top and then buys a pint of piss in the ground putting more money in the cunts pocket.

I despair with our support I really do.

Even here in the Southern Hemisphere there was 6 odd Irish lads in the only shit hole pub that was open at 12.30am Monday morning and showing the United - Liverpool game. They were proudly singing "Love United Hate Glazer" to all the Grandmas who were happily pumping their pensions into the pokie machines..

I tried to explain to the chap in the Owen shirt, that they'd have more effect if they didn't opt to put £50 in Uncle Malcs back pocket and not buy the latest replica shirts they were wearing. One NWAFer pops up "yeah but you've got to support your team" and another asks "who do you support?". Completely oblivious to the connection.



Great news for FC though.

Where did you live? Bury's only 45 mins from studentsville on the tram.

Bad news for us (Oldham). Moving to Failsworth, down the road from Man City, was already potentially suicidal, but now it looks like we'll also be competing with a non-league side for fans, and probably losing.

You're not going to be missed.

I live in Manchester and before I came was interested in going to watch the likes of Bury or Oldham, might have to check out FC United out. Got mates up here who are Surrey Man Utd fans so would be fun taking piss out of them.

Ten pounds!?!?!?

 

[ernestolynch]

Ten pounds!?!?!?

There is a minimum charge applicable in the pyramid. I dunno what FC charge these days, may be seven, but my Ryman Prem team on the same step 3 charge a tenner which I think is a fair price when you think that the players are all pt.

Burnage. It'd take me a good 45 minutes to get somewhere to catch the tram.

it wouldn't take you 45 mins to walk into Piccadily to get the tram.

and if you can afford to live in Burnage, you can afford to get the bus.

 

[The39thStep]

Burnage to Piccadily is about ten minutes on the train if that

Err... every cock. That's why it's happened in the first place.

I've never bothered. When they first started up, I was tempted, and I thought about it, and I looked up Gigg Lane on the map... but then I thought, nah, can't be bothered trekking all the way over there...

Fair enough, grass roots football isn't for everyone.
