To be fair, thats a reasonable turn out for a tuesday night away with crap weather and before a January payday. Im also starting to think that we might be starting to see the next gen of fans for them, younger, less stuck with the past and more about supporting their own team as opposed to just hating ours. Im naïve I know.
Nah, I think you're right. A lot of them are getting sick of the 'pretend they don't exist' crap. It's almost feels like a trend to just pretend to hate us but deep down, they don't. The issue is with the club itself and their level of petulance. If you watch their managers interview, he also goes out of his way not to name us but that'll be from instruction from the club. There is no way he gives a flying fuck, neither do any of the players, because they're normal human beings.
Not sure who it is at their club driving this, but for their sake they need to become a bit more professional and maybe recruit a younger media team.
