Fight from within-boycott-fan owned mini club- the similarities are huge- the current unrest at Anfield and that experienced by myself and many others in 2005.
So if you will consider reading on –despite my geographical location-there are also mistakes which you can avoid.
SOS are well organised and will I believe prove very effective in educating the great majority who do not populate these forums. A good relationship with your local media will help but they will always have a foot in both camps-and SKY Sports who attended your last Olympic meeting did not record any of the excellent speeches other than Rogan’s . They have their own agenda.
No the one key area that in hindsight we did’nt communicate effectively was that the parallel formation of a fan owned club was in no way an alternative to LFC or MUFC.
What it was and is, is a way for disenfranchised supporters either due to price or other reasons to set up and run a club with links to a shared love.
The formation of a fan owned clubs puts the fans back in charge rather than the owners because as and when LFC are not playing 3.00pm Saturday you can go and watch AFC.
It is showing the bosses that you are not just sheep to be taken for granted and may keep ticket prices down in the long term.
The whole array of campaigns and actions both inside and outside Anfield redresses the balance of power-and power is king.
You the fans are the brand image Hicks would like to sell round the world-so show him you are prepared to go to any lengths.
But the key point is ALL FC United fans are still Man United fans-they just do not put coin in to pay an Americans debt-so support both ideas, fight like hell from within and those who choose to get behind AFC-two liverpools-but the Soul is One.
