I completely agree with this and would even say that fans need to be willing to compromise. Forget not letting perfect be the enemy of good, they need to be willing to accept barely okay. However, ownership groups need to fully utilise this willingness for fans to compromise. Although Hamilton and Winnipeg started with similar situations, only one of the ownership groups utilised the aforementioned fan willingness. You could argue that this was a similar case for Edmonton and Halifax. The results speak for themselves.
Fans definitely need to show up, but owners can't half ass it when the fans do indeed show up.
