You say that, but Doncaster wanted to keep Marosi when we came knocking so their ‘markets’ may have been broadly similar. Even if Moore is on a higher wage, I can’t imagine it’ll be substantially more.

It feels to me like the budget is quite substantially lower than last year.

Yorkshire stole all the Ts.

That’s basically a video of me at work today.

Would have been hilarious* if he’d done his ACL and then been made to play on until half time. *not hilarious, but you get what I mean

There’s ages to go until the game, don’t even know what the fuss is all about.

Don’t know what you’re getting at. I’ve just been down the club shop and Tim Fisher was training a monkey to ride a unicycle on Car Park A.

Yes, and I’m guessing you must still be able to do that.

To be fair to them, they habitually manage to get blood from stones.

But if we stay in the league and get our prize/TV money of c.£7m then each game has been worth around £150k. If you make the 4th round of the Carabao Cup (which probably isn’t far from our ceiling in the competition) you make £47k in total. It’s appalling. In terms of wanting to see us compete...

Yep, 45% to each club and 10% to the EFL.

Why would Chelsea be dragging it out? What do they gain?

I get where you’re coming from but stick a business head on for a minute - the prize money and ticket sales (which most could have guessed roughly) probably wouldn’t have been sufficient to cover players’ appearance bonuses, let alone win bonuses. Maybe there is a business case for not...

Well, that’s me reassured.

The fact that Fadz is getting old has hardly crept up on us, has it? If he’s feeling the pace after one game then maybe we need more CBs than I thought.

That’s mad. A long read, but mad.

…for now.

Would have been interesting to trial it in the competition. The amount of surveying EFL did on streaming opportunities last season suggested to me that it was going to become more widespread. Seems not, so far at least. Even if it was the same ticket price, or for away games only, or whatever...

Gah, couldn’t tell you that - it was 3 years ago!

I remember when the leisure centre used to open up their sports hall as a bar on matchdays, but don’t think they do that any more.
