I never leave early but being in the North Stand Upper I might start doing so.
I guess if the changes cause the problems referred to on here then it might become more of an issue which isn't a good look.

Re: Zeki.

I was in Lisbon a couple of weeks ago and chatted with some Benfica fans. They didn't think they would be buying him. They said much the same as many on here that he has the skills but not the work rate. I personally think he would still be a good member of the squad but not a regular starter.

No it wouldn't but I guess it would work. 500k is too many anyway. Blackpool and Blackburn are both unitary authorities now and way short of 500K so it should be possible to argue less than 500k works
