As the fans get pushed further away.

He's the reason we have a mute button on remote controls.

Went to see levellers last night in derby. Never been to vaillant live so a new venue for me. Reminds me of a larger De Mont. Good gig, crowd got into it more as the night progressed. Actually saw people on peoples shoulders, which is a big no-no (these days).

Derbies have become so lame that I doubt this sort of thing matters anymore.

Because there are well off people in every country?

Trust reform? Never.

All the teams in this league are awful including stoke...just a matter of who's less awful on the day.

Yep make the game as dull as possible.

It all started because of the rivalry between the 2 managers back in the 70's, venables and the other bloke.

Chelsea do have one of the worst sets on fans around, home or away no matter what the game they're always awful.

Green Brigade banned for a few games. Won't make any difference to the group though. Club has to be seen to be doing something. They've been here before.

England fans voted amongst the best behaved in Europe, higher than wales, rep ireland, Northern ireland and scotland. UEFA Rank Fans of 50 National Teams Based on Behaviour - England 6th

Rangers manager helped the UB with their TIFO tonight against Roma.

And la liga have won in 5 out of the last 10...granted it was the same side but still, so its more like Real madrid domination.

If the weather had been better the attendance would've been higher. I agree with you that we don't have the kind of fanbase to protest/boycott in any great numbers. That's the same for most english clubs.

I really hope they don't just build a boring looking bowl with no redeeming features. You'd hope that such an iconic stadium the design will be very carefully planned.

It must be tough being in that squad and seeing your former team mates playing for the likes of Manchester City and Atlético Madrid whilst you're playing for Croydon.

Could be, doesn't seem to be happening.

Plus the break calms the crowd, it makes it easier for medics to move around because they are not blocking views and it allows them to focus and communicate without being distracted by shouting and chanting. Plus, it means club doctors can get involved if needed.

Ahh ok, seems odd that one of the replies would be from a (so called) boro fan though, but who knows these days.

I read that the stewards were swarming all over L1 last night trying to get fans to sit...true? Boro fans also were being hssled to sit, which is really weird.

How did the 15 different protests go?

I wonder when we'll have a manager that once we take the lead we actually try to score another instead of thinking we can see it out because season after season we lose so many points from winning positions, rodgers was the master at this, we seem to think we can hold teams off it rarely works but we keep on trying.
