More than one was so upset by what they'd witnessed that I felt they should have been put on suicide watch. Every single one of them wanted Parker gone asap. Every single one of them couldn't wait for the season to end, they doubted there'd be any febrile atmosphere on't Turf or demos against Parker, because for that to happen the fans would have to care, and it's gone beyond that, most fans just don't give a FF any more, they've had enough.

Seems to me that the only way to stir Mr Pace into action now is for the fans to vote with their feet. In the PL gate receipts are virtually irrelevant, perhaps 5% of turnover, in the Championship they'll be more like 15% of turnover and if that starts being eaten into significantly, then Mr Pace has problems. Not that he hasn't got more than enough problems anyway, not that he seems to be doing anything about them. Or maybe he is and he's keeping it quiet, him to know and us to find out.
Was Alan Pace actually there or has he had enough of Parker's playing style, choosing to stay in Barcelona.
