So neither club wants the game moved, yet FCUM officials are encouraging their supporters to hit CAFC in the pocket by not showing up? What a wonderfully miserable and unfriendly gesture towards another club.
1) There's been plenty of suggestions as to how we can do something to make sure Curzon don't miss out. A friendly or a collection, that sort of thing.
2) Curzon aren't short of a bob or two anyway.
3) We're not a charity. We're not there as a cash cow to be milked at every opportunity. We don't have a morale obligation to turn up and pump cash into every club we meet.
4) We were formed with the intention of trying to change football for the better, to show that fans can have say in the running of the game. To get away from the sh*t that prevails at the top of the pyramid. Changing the kick off time of a game purely for commercial gain is one of those things, if we just say "oh, never mind, we'll accept this and go about our business as usual" then there's no point in the club existing. We might as well have just gone watching Altrincham or someone.
I do appreciate that we could well be banging our heads against a brick wall here, but it's what we're here for.
