In many cases both of those situations are the same things.

You think a person paying £15 for a chance to see Wembley will effect the long term aim of NOPM to SISU? get a grip mate ffs.

You'll be lucky, last year was from £20 (the back rows in the top tier) to £60.

If it's aimed at me then my imaginary ticket office would have a think about it, my posts are mainly aimed at the people banging on about NOPM and starving them out.

Although he has said he won't go back until the ownership changes. If he can provide his ticket stubbs for 40 days I'd let him. :smuggrin:

On the other hand, on the day everybody is sky blue so get him down there. Hopefully he would get a season ticket the next season.

To me, somebody can shout NOPM and they love the council all week and bicker but on a Saturday it is gone and it's ccfc

If anything, I'd hope a trip to Wembley would make people see it's about CCFC and not the other twats involved from whatever side. Nobody would be there waving sisu or council flags, it would be sky blue.

Yet being two faced like you doesn't matter when you said "You shouldn't have a go at those that went to Sixfields, it's their right to go there" yet spout off about NOPM? F**king ridiculous.

Didn't you if only for a split second, stop and think?.... If more fans went to Sixfields and packed the ground, CCFC might not, infact I definately think NOT! be back in Coventry right now!

The comparison is there ffs! You get behind those that went to Sixfields saying it's their right to go yet slag off those that are NOPM! You're always having digs at me for being NOPM. Just read my post #75... SISU have had NO intention of building a Stadium for our Club. They'd have been happy as "Pigs in s**t" if we'd have followed them to Sixfields and made it their permanent home!

SBK. He's talking about people who say they are NOPM but would still turn up at Wembley. It's a clear and simple premise to get your head around. Give it another try.

And to save you the time, I'm not NOPM, I'm just not going to games at that the moment. Not saying you'd have mentioned that though as I'm sure you can see the difference.

As I've also said he is quick enough to have digs at me... "What are you saying about the team, you don't go to games" I'm 100% NOPM f**king double standards he plays, Is that hard for you to get your head around? Give it another try!

You're the only one who questions other people, you think people boycotting home games will influence a decision to go to Wembley? A place where 32y olds like myself have never been to, just to suit you people who scream at the NOPM people? fuck off.

The club would receive 30% of takings if we got to the final, not including travel expenses for the team e.c.t. the rest goes into the competition pool.

I've wondered why he just argues with people . he clearly has an agenda , what that is ? I've no idea . maybe it pays him to do so or he really doesn't have a life going on the hours/ days he spends on here. very strange .

Not a double standard. I don't go to games, I don't talk about the team. I'm not in a position to do so. So surely in the example you are giving he's not having a pop at you for being NOPM, but having a pop at you for talking about the team when you don't go to games, because you are NOPM.

Try again.

Ok I'll try again,Loads of CCFC fans don't go to games now. Posters on here(No disrespect here SBWM) don't go to games for one reason or another, ccfc4l hadn't been to a game until about 2 weeks ago yet commented on players, manager, system, etc, NOTHING said to them, but because I've got the bollocks to stand up for the power of my convictions get ripped apart, especially by Nick. It's started coming to light that those "Superfans boasting how the team is playing in a certain system is/isn't working, and saying "Wing backs" and playing 3 at the back is the way forward, basing their judgement on 2 minute highlights and 10 minutes extended play just like myself should be managing Man Utd or Chelsea, according to a few on here I haven't got a clue!....... but they have???

My observation would be that everyone is entitled to an opinion.
There are other outlets of media in the City that do not discern who is entitled to post, write or phone in.

No, ive been swimming

We came back and it was nothing to do with attendances was it? Very strange they did a couple of games in.

Still, nothing at all to do with the thread is it? Just more myths. You tried to make a comparison but it didn't work.

If you came to the game tomorrow, I'd say fair play to you. I'd joke about glory fan about the top of the table clash / opponents also.

What would you say if I said I'd never go to a wasps game for example, then jumped on them in a Euro final?

Hmmm very strange, you replied to the later post of mine!

If you believe that then you're very naive. Why was it a myth? I firmly believe if Sixfields had been packed every game that season, we wouldn't be back in Coventry.

I wouldn't give a f**k if you went to watch Wasps. I've got zero affinity with them.

Like i said, I'm not saying who can and can't go to games. Christ I'd love people who keep saying nopm to go again, nothing to do with sisu but more for them as they are missing watching their team. Hopefully they would get the bug again and watch their team again.

All i said was I thought he was nopm.

No, i said that once after you made the statement of edge being better than any player we have now. I said how can you judge if you haven't seen them play.

It's not a super fan thing, I'd take somebodies opinions on players they have seen play over somebody who hasn't. Same as people who always watch the u23s.

Nothing to do with nopm.

So by you agreeing with this, you admit if it wasn't for people like me and those that refused to go and held out on principle, we'd be playing football in Northampton now?

Not 100% no. But I do think we'd have stayed there longer if we had filled the ground every week. Of course we may have returned anyway. Also you didn't go before we moved to Northampton anyway did you? So no pat on the back from me. Sorry mate.

I was a season ticket holder the season before we moved, refused to buy one when we moved but admittedly did go to one game there to see what it was like. So I'd say it's more people like me than people like you if we are heading down that route. Validate me.
