I haven’t suggested anything and I have no clue what the delay is about. what I am saying is that the delay will make very little difference, and to say “spectacularly” in this context is a bit unhinged. you said that premier league clubs don’t care about ticket revenue, but then they charge...

I don’t know why people keep saying this- if people want one they’ll get one, and the delay won’t make a blind bit of difference. A bit of a delay wouldn’t just turn people off I understand the arguments but there is just zero evidence to support it

if that’s the case and nobody cares about ticket revenue, why does every single premier league club charge so much? sound background info but not borne out in facts unfortunately

the stats show they don’t tend to get hooked though we’d just be giving away money, which won’t be happening

Sunderland have a lot more to call upon than that

whingeing for whingeing sake

wrong again. Like it or not, the club is trying to get more money in, not keep people happy. They will say the right things of course but the aim is to get revenue as high as possible, and if that pisses people off then within reason so be it

so it’s a good job we never did it when trying to work out why the club is doing certain things, people need to think in terms of what CCFC the business needs, not what the CCFC supporters want (and what they’ve become accustomed to to be honest)

and? The aim is still to get as much revenue as possible

but that’s not the way the club is thinking, as King said himself, we have to grow revenue, not give away thousands in the hope they stay on

Why on earth would the club want to sell Premier League season tickets at championship prices?

Seems to be a lot of complaining about very little. The goal is to increase revenue, not bums on seats. Someone was using Stoke at home with us in 14th as an example, saying we’d only get 15,000 at 35 quid. That comes to 525 grand, which is more than we’d get for 20,000 at 25 quid, so for the...

If people want a season ticket they’ll buy one, if they don’t they won’t. We may have lost out on a few but I doubt very many, I don’t think it’s true at all that we’ve lost loads of fans because of this. Anyway the number of ticket sales isn’t priority at all, revenue per ticket is. We could...

this is the final nail in the coffin, relegation is nailed on, clubs finished

To be fair you seem to always be pissed off about something

it was also when we had no real momentum as a club

As always it depends on how we do. If it looks like we’re on another run to the playoffs it’ll be 23k-25k average, if not then it’ll be a bit higher than last season. if it looks like promotion might be on the cards then we’d have to play some games twice to get everyone who wants a ticket in...

Multimillionaire business owner criticised for being unprofessional by using an exclamation mark

Best: Jimmy Hill starting to sing the sky blue song after the last game at Highfield Road- euphoric, emotional, proud, everything good about the club and it’s history for all generations of fans in that one moment Worst: Villa’s winner in 2001, when that went in we knew we were finally down...

When the dust settles we have to face up to the fact that we were not good enough on the day.
