So Blackpool at home to Arsenal...

Wonder if the locals turn out for that one?
Be interesting to see if the protesters can stop people from going.
Methinks a 15000 crowd.

 

I reckon it will sell out. Arsenal will bring however many they get so possibly 7k like Sunderland. Thousands of their fans still go now to support the club no matter what. Some will forget about the owner protest for one game so they can see a premier league team. The match will probably have some buy a ticket to go on the pitch and act like bells. Then you have the football fans who don't support Blackpool but live there and have the chance to watch one of the premier league clubs they watch on TV, live in person. If it's not a sell out I don't think it will have too many empty seats.

 

Should we be calling them hypocrites?

 

I wouldn't be too quick to call them hypocrites. I know a Blackpool can who is boycotting games and I am pretty sure he won't drop the boycott for any game. I will ask him but I will be very surprised if he goes. I would imagine a large % of those boycotting won't go - the tickets will go to the fans who aren't boycotting and the usual suspects who only turn up for the big games.
