The manager news landed on a day when supporters were already fired up about season ticket pricing. A Reddit thread on 2026–27 renewals shows frustration: the cheapest ticket sits at €400, roughly flat year-on-year, but fans note the club could sell far more at OAKA than at Leoforos — and you might not even have European football to show for it. The mood is restless, with the Neestrup appointment arriving as the first real signal of what comes next.
