Is sponsorship the new way to support clubs?
Posted: Wed May 23, 2007 12:07 amLooking at the FA cup final between Chelsea v Man Utd and the way tickets are allocated more so with the AC Milan V Liverpool final and how they are allocated it would appear that, although weve known about it for years, money is really starting to talk, and its hitting the supporters more than anyone could realise. It appears to me that slowly but surely the supporters will be driven out then the whole stadium will be filled with a large percentage of corporate industries who have invested in these clubs getting the all clear to buy tickets first before anyone else. The two major events of this year have shown that supporters will be robbed while the investors get first call on everything associated with what the club achieves. I for one really do hope this isnt the way things will be for the future and just hope these are one off instances.
