    Match Thread Cardiff City (A)

    Tonight was a disappointment and whilst I appreciate how some of the sky blue army feel tonight. We must not forget the progress we've made since last season. Obviously, the lack of depth in the squad has been exposed tonight and reflects the resources and clubs finances It does seem that we...

    Next Season’s Ticket Prices

    I feel the exiting of so many players during January was preparation for the summer recruitment. I'm just hoping that we don't get stuck with the likes of Da Costa still on the wage bill. In the short term we are very short of quality to back up the top 12 - 14 players....hopefully it doesn't...

    Hamer suspension ?

    On the plus side, most Premier league teams will consider his disciplinary record as a barrier to signing him. The most annoying part for me is the bookings he receives for dissent.

    Next Season’s Ticket Prices

    It might be a closer result than you think. They only work at two speeds.....dead slow and stop. It's important to note that for one worker ...there are always at least two spectators.

    Dacosta off to L1 (loan with a view to perm)

    unfortunately - his first 45 minutes for them might have given them enough evidence to bin him

    How much would it cost to purchase the club? (Any debts to take on factored in as well)

    That's my understanding of the ground situation. The one positive element for Derby is their rent is deemed relatively low.

    Summer Sales

    From my perspective I think the club is managed within the following structure: The overall budget for the club is allocated from SISU level. The allocation of cost centre budgets is determined by the Senior management team....which will be Fisher Chair, MR for playing side & player support...

    Hamer

    Given they played extra time at the weekend, I hope they've recovered for tonights game.

    Would that be the Government department for parties? ;)

    Match Thread City v Blackpool Tuesday

    Agree with that line up, but Blackpool are playing really well at the moment. So expect a tough game 2-1 PUSB's

    Crowd trouble

    I suppose the safety officer is only used to Wasps games, where the crowd always sit and can have a snooze between scrums....they take that long.

    Top 5 penalty takers ?

    However, I doubt that even the most favourable ref would give us 5 penalties in normal time! 😂

    Looking Ahead to the Summer

    Where have you heard that ST's will be going on sale earlier?

    Looking Ahead to the Summer

    The strategy for the club is incremental improvements of the first team squad. The obvious areas to be addressed imo are: Left sided CB - JCS could be the option, but that would depend on wages. Fadz - extend for one more year CB - recruit Fadz replacement LWB - add to Bidwell RWB - I wouldn't...

    Southampton Cocksure

    It’ll be a good test for us and could highlight the areas in need of significant improvement during the summer transfer window. I expect Southampton to put out a full strength team. Their manager has gone on record as saying that they can’t win the league, but the cup provides an opportunity...

    January Transfer Window

    I hope I'm wrong, but given that the club lost £3m in the season we won L1.....and I expect that last season we would have lost money. I'm not sure the club has the finances to bring anyone else in. As I said, I really hope I'm wrong as an additional AM would be helpful.

    Dacosta off to L1 (loan with a view to perm)

    I hope the L1 club that he's potentially off to on loan isn't Sunderland.........or the deal might be off.

    Away priority from next season

    Season ticket holders pay for the season in advance and give the club some guaranteed working capital. Whilst I acknowledge that the regular away supporters, who don't have a ST should have access to tickets. The ST holders should get some form of preferential treatment, but I would support the...
