No real harm done apart from making the whole club look like a massive cunt, providing Bolton (and probably a couple of other clubs who don't really mean anything in the Grand Scheme compared to us) with an undoubted game-winning team talk for next time we play them, and proving that the Management we have in place are out of touch with their Premiership counterparts and the general sporting ethos in the UK.
Apart from that, carry on the good work lads!

Sorry but I for one don't give a flying fcuk how we "look", to Bolton Wanderers or to any other bugger, if what we've said is justified. Out of touch with our Premiership counterparts? Cry me a river. We used to be out of touch at the top of the league. I want us back up there.

You're not bothered about how our club carries itself? Fair enough, proves my point, we used to be proud of it.

Other people's views of how we carry ourselves are not automatically justified. I do care about how the club behaves. What I don't care about is whether our competitors, who are hardly unbiased to begin with, approve or not.

Correct JJ. It seems to me that all we were doing was looking after our own interests. What would we be saying if United raised the issue, we would give them a slagging off (because it is United) and then ask why we did not think of it.
One should think of this like a music festival. People pay a lot of money to go to Glastonbury to see lots of bands, some they will deffo want to see, others they might go to if they are not pissed and or it is chucking down. Do you think Fishermans Friends got the same payout as Beyonce, or that The Master Musicians of Joujouka negotiated the same deal as U2? Did they fuck as like.
This is because the top artists are the biggest draw, they are what people go for, and consequently get paid more.
What do people think Glasto's line up would be like in 2012 if Michael Eavis said he was going to help out all the little bands and next year he was going to add up all the appearance fees and sponsorship and divide it equally amongst all the performers.................hahahahahahaha.
