“You will soon sell the air from Giulești, to the can!”

This evening, Rapid played the first friendly of the cantonment held in the Slovenian resort Moravske Toplice. The opponent was FK Buducnost, the champion of Montenegro.

The club in Giulești decided to convey the match on the YouTube channel, but only for its members – in other words, contrary. The fact that they were forced to pay to track the friendly did not drop well to quick supporters.

The decision of the Rapid angered the supporters: “You will soon sell the air from Giulești, to the can!”

They stormed the comments sections of the posts about the training match, accusing the management of greed. Here are some of the critical comments:

• “All clubs invest in attracting new supporters, like fools, and you, the professionals, drive away those who are already.”

• “I am usually favorable to marketing, but it's just friendly. I think it's too much …”

• “It just matters to make money, the fans are no longer important!”

• “And at friendly we have to pay … Only you are professionals, others you are amateur”

• “Mom, what I arrived”

• “Are we no longer the family?

Rapid offers 3 distinct types of subscriptions for the YouTube channel. The cheapest of them, the Gold version, which allowed the match to watch, cost 5.99 monthly ron.

One-two supporters invoked the low price, but others did not accept the argument: “it is not about the amount, it is a beating.”

Many other comments contain the kind of language that cannot be reproduced.
