just a thought on the weekend
Its certainly true that the club did make money this weekend through sponsorship and rights in india, and more than last years one off v Barca.
The only issue is whether making money should come before the views and feelings of the fans. I'm afraid the club is a business at the moment, trying to make money to give MA a chance of getting players and to keep the books in order.
Whether or not you feel it was a rip off, if it allowed MA to sign Joey Gudjonnson or nathan Blake (not that I rate him) then perhaps we should express our misgivings but accept it was a neccessary evil
