They have been, hence they voted for them. The question being asked is why they'd vote for them, because there's is no sensible reason for doing so. The only reasons could be a sense of party loyalty and it's who they always vote for or they're somehow still being taken in by the idea that...

Todays ManC-RM match highlighted very much why the gme needs a stopped clock when ball is not in play rather than time added on.

I know ticketmaster has a fair stranglehold on the entire market, but if those were the terms surely the clubs/league would use alternative sellers. Should be that the money is released to the club immediately, but the club becomes liable for any refunds via the seller (for which they could...

There is the thing of getting more satisfaction if you've had to work harder. For example, I love growing the plants for my garden from seed even though I could quite easily and cheaply buy them from a garden centre because I get more satisfaction from seeing the thrive and bloom than if I've...

In other news, has anyone else seen the Piers Moron advert for his new show on TalkTV, where he starts talking about honest and open debate and the last thing he does in the advert is tell someone to shut up?

Seems to remember a story about a staunch 'pro-lifer' Conservative Republican. Said how abortion was against God and those doing so would be going to hell etc. Turned out he paid for a young woman he'd had a one-night stand with to have an abortion after she got pregnant. Got absolutely...

I'm not quite sure we are self-sustainable even taking out things like interest and amortisation as our wage bill exceeds our 'normal' income, so relies on other means of income to cover (i.e. player sales) which aren't guaranteed and thus gives much less for the manager to improve the squad...

Some artist's impressions.

Quite interesting to see how pundits say that all these stoppages etc. would make the game worse, yet from this tiny sample it seems that amongst the fanbase there's a decent number of people who would quite happily put up with that in exchange for it leading to a fairer, properly officiated...

Agree entirely. They need to pin it on the CONSERVATIVE PARTY not an individual so it sticks to the whole festering organisation.

A budget which is one of the lowest in the league even though our attendances are better than most. One of the biggest things leading to losses is the interest accumulated on the loans she provides. The club could have a much great ability to manouevre in the market without that millstone, but...

Knowing those things about the team doesn't mean they have inside info on the owners or their plans. They might have an eye on the training ground for injuries/tactics/disagreements etc, and they then might here a bit of juicy gossip about a signing etc. The fact that Joy is still only covering...

They're now calling themselves a 'work event' instead.

Appetite for Promotion

Great news, even though it's probably another rolling contract. But I hope his signing also indicates he's been given assurances regarding funding and potential sales.

So's the tea lady, the kitman and the security guards. Does that mean you expect them to have an in depth knowledge of the club's business strategy and an expert understanding of it?

Agreed. Things have improved and SISU's stewardship is better than their attempts to just steamroller people into submission and taking fans for granted. But that doesn't mean it's all rosy. They're not risking the club with huge high-risk, high reward investment (which by and large is good)...

Agree entirely. Lots of the complaints people have are already written into the laws but never applied. Then when they are they complain about it ruining the game and "if you send people off for that there'll be about 6 players left by the end". Well if you actually applied the laws consistently...

Pretty sure that rule already exists. Just never applied consistently.

As long as we don't end up on a Boulevard of Broken Dreams and we end being a Basket Case again.
