I see what you're trying to say, but I respectfully disagree. If all opposition fans boycotted matches involving Franchise, it would send a clear message to the football authorities and make the pariah club less commercially viable, ideally to the point of having to fold. Granted, that seems unlikely to happen - but I fully support anyone who makes a principled stand. It's like buying green electricity, or moving your custom to an ethical bank - the actions of one individual only have a limited impact, but it's about being comfortable with your own actions.
