SAFC V SUFC (ticket news & rant)
FIRST THE RANT ...
Why oh why are people on the Internet moaning about alleged part timers turning up in their thousands to boost the attendance above a so called poor 25,000 against BCFC.
Why oh why are we making such statements, we are so fickle, we are really showing ourselves up with all this in-fighting, all this I'm a better fan than you, I've been to all the Cup games, you haven't so piss off attitudes.
The fans WILL turn out in force and we all need to welcome them with open arms for they are SAFC supporters, wanting to help shout their team to victory and into the semi-finals.
All football teams, all supporters will act like this given the same amount of shit we've all gone through over the recent past.
Surely it's time to stop the in-fan-moaning and concentrate on the pitch not the terraces.
