Stating facts or opinions doesn't mean one is against a particular airline. The reason FR get Pwk so cheap is because its the only real operator. EMA is in danger of becoming an FR airport which would not be good in the long run for facilities etc . Also if EZY were to move to BHX from EMA it's not because they are in fear of FR its just a sound commercial decision, because if they move in, BHX may never welcome FR why would they?. So ezy would be the actual benefiter here as BHX has a larger demand than EMA. EZY may apply this to MAN over LPL etc etc. Its not running from FR its moving up the next step ie into the bigger airports. And that's why I feel that FR could isolate itself into FR only airports. If you were an airport like man/bhx/gla would you be bothered with FR, they are a good airline to the public, but when you are a successful airport would you put up with MOL and his tactics
