I had heard that, although I understand that they were planning to save money by selling the elephants and instead using Sky Blue Sam.

For me there are two issues Torch. Firstly, we attempt to starve Otium of revenue - hence the boycott of home games (and if Grendel is reading this, the boycott of away games unless the tickets are bought from the away club blah blah blah). Secondly, we have large away attendances to show...

The phrase "when you're in a hole, stop digging", seems appropriate.

Our defence has been offering that deal on goals for years now....

Poison ivy?

I'd attempted to word it carefully - "any home games"- but am happy to confirm your assumption :)

Well outside my area of expertise, but my thoughts for what they're worth. I'm quite sure that the ACL Board will have taken legal advice on their options in this matter and I'd be very surprised if they acted outside that advice. As I understand it, the terms of the CVA include a "full...

I think it's always been fairly clear that there were some people who follow NOPM only while the club is playing in Northampton and others who intend to follow it until SISU have gone. I suppose we should be pleased that in this mess that is our football club, you can find such pleasure in...

As I understand it, the object of the campaign is to reduce the income to Otium by as much as possible. My interpretation of that is to cancel Sky Blue Player, not buy my usual season tickets, not attend any home games or away cup games and not buy the usual family presents from the club...

In the old days (pre '81 I think) the away team used to get about 45% of the gate money. These days the home team keeps it all, although if you buy your tickets from the away club, I believe that they keep something like 5% as a handling fee. Hence a number of people posting recently...

And the very next match was away to Sutton Utd......

What a great season that was. Avoided relegation in the last match the season before, then (I think) made only one close season signing - Ray Graydon, so hopes were not too high. But Milne changed our formation to an out and out 4-2-4 and we saw some great attacking football and some...

Magnificent!

Just another reason why the plan to move to Northampton makes no sense at all. Destroy your revenues and make every possible attempt to alienate your customer base..... This will make a great case study for a MBA course one day.

"the rather ludicrously fantasist in Joe Elliot " "the rather foolish banker" "all these greedy bastards" "SISU played hard ball and like a wounded animal fought back" So, a fine piece of objective analysis. :thinking about:

Couldn't agree more. I'd settle for a degree of competence and trustworthiness.

Neither were we until SISU turned up :)

To be fair, given where we are now, that would probably feel like success... I suppose that if we can just reduce our expectations far enough, it could be a "good year". We just have to redefine "good".

So none of those happening is now the definition of success? P.S. I think you'll find that "eleventy billion" is copyright of GMK.....

I think that the more valid and immediate question is why on earth would they go to Northampton?
