One thing to consider with the £500 fix is what might a ST be next year and indeed in 5 years. If inflation stays at 10% (unlikely but just for the sake of thinking about it) rounded to £10 2023 £400 2024 £440 2025 £490 2026 £540 2027 £590 £2460 for 5 years rather than £2500 for 5 plus 1...

I actually liked Corbyn. His stance on a few things such as Eire didn’t fit but you gotta admire his antiestablishment grit.

These are the problems with basing your economy around the demands created by population growth. House building and mortgage lending are great for the economy short term. Labour pressed their cheat button by encouraging EU 20 odd year old migrants. No problem with that: educated at a...

Boris won because he was leant the Brexit Party vote (who has just trounced the Tories in the last election). Those voters were “OB & CS” voters (if you subscribe to 2d electoral calculus views) combined. BP voters make up of a lot of blue collar ex Labour non-Uni Ed folks. That’s who Boris...

There’s a chance we might need at least 5 penalty takers in a match or two in the coming weeks. Get them practicing Mark.

Oh mate, it’s the non-working who vote Tory? With all due respect…..

TBH not sure the ticket pricing has been thought out. If we make the Prem, we might get demand for 30000 seats, say 10 times. How many seats will be unavailable because they’ve been sold to “kids” on a s/t costing £2.50 per match? People will be almost in a position to sell them off. Will...

If inflation comes down then prices will just rise slower. If we get deflation then that’s when prices lower but also that the economy is in the mire. In reality most of this inflation run has been down to fuel and energy hikes. Expensive energy, expensive production of lots of stuff and...

I think in Man City world the amount of their revenue that season tickets generate is à relatively small amount in proportion to other income.

For a club that may well be L1, with a Prem Club in the same city. As I’ve said before, our pricing might not be too far out (couple of tweaks down for existing s/t holders would have been good PR, 61 year old renewing some kind of discount etc) but the message to accompany / justify the...

Maybe he could have written: “Exciting times, and we’ve some incredible family packages for you to check out so we can bring in the next generation of sky blue fans. With inflation, prices for everything and wages have changed. I’m not hiding from it, it’s reality. We’ve secured playing at...

Doug, The song in the background about yourself, hair thing, shave thing. Not sure if it’s quite the right note. Maybe a bit self indulgent? Still think you’re a breath of fresh air, but steady on, steady on.

Have they released the s/t prices too early? Have they thought through the family zone combo dodge especially if they sell it out and keep extending it like they’ve said. I’m unsure.

I think a few are going to do that. Might be a fair few gaps in the stand.

Factor in the mad rate of inflation atm £500 (and I know I’m going to waffle: £500 is about 50 hours min wage work this year, 10% up next year it equals 45 hours, and so on to about 30 odd hours if things continue meaning that season ticket will be cheaper in real terms year on year) I probably...

Have I got this right: 2 Adults £800 2 adults 2 young kids £600? Are adults better off finding a couple of nephews or whatever to register even if they kids don’t attend?

Inevitable that prices were going to hike. Double digit inflation and I’m sure Frasers haven’t lowered to the rent. If we go up the s/t is for 19 home matches rather than 23? Over 19 matches that’s over £25/t? (Premium zone) - it’s a bit confusing TBH. EDIT. Not complaining - Prem footy...

The whole voting landscape changed with the Brexit Vote. Blue collar vote switched from Labour to Boris.

Keith Stroud refereeing the Swansea v WBA match. I don’t rate him but for whatever reason he’s helped us out of late. C’mon Stroud. Send off a few Baggies and give the Swans a few pens.

100% untrue. Mum a teacher, my dad an Indian welder who emigrated to Spain never worked in anything other than welding. He died not long ago. Now. With all due respect. Fuck off. Twat.
