    Fun in the Premier League?

    potentially is the word there. there's also potential for an owner to find a way to divert the money into their own bank account

    think some people are in for a big shock if and when we get new owners. can't see any new owner coming in and looking at the business and thinking having ever aspect of the club by the cheapest in the division is a great strategy

    Would be nice but that's not really how the world works is it. Friend of mine was taking her daughter to see Paw Patrol and was amazed to find you can buy VIP tickets, which is essential just a photo with someone in a costume for over double the price of regular tickets. It's the norm these days...

    Happy new year

    If you need an excuse when I had plantar fasciitis the doctors advice was to spend a decent amount of money on trainers instead of wearing shoes His theory was there is far more technology and research that goes into the support and fit of trainers than any shoes you can buy

    Fun in the Premier League?

    This highlights the issue, an expectation that we charge less than other clubs. A game against Villa for example would be a premium fixture Only checked a couple of clubs as for a lot you seem to have to sign up to get access to ticket info but Villa charge up to £59 for their top category...

    Fun in the Premier League?

    Is this a genuine stat? Seems to be empty seats at a lot of televised games. Guess it could be season ticket holders not showing up but if demand was so great you'd think they'd have a queue of people wanting to use their ST if they couldn't attend a game Realistically we'd be lucky to make it...

    Are there actually any laws against MLM. Not sure if they're just more visible in the social media age but they seem to be rife

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    The official explanation appears to be that we, and other countries, are monitoring and sharing data regarding potential new variants of concern but Chinese data isn't to be trusted. It's true that new variants could be milder, it's also true there could be new variants that evade vaccines and /...

    Andrew Tate

    I'd never really heard of him until all this kicked off, wish it had stayed that way. A look at his wiki entry is not good reading, maybe you can tell us what is wrong on there From what I can make out he had a pretty uneventful kickboxing career, fighting in places like Liquid & Envy nightclub...

    Doug King Takeover

    I guess they're working on the basis that its the club not the owner who the regulations apply to and there's obviously an exemption in place (assuming I'm right about the regulations, not 100% on that but sure I remember something from when we were on our tour of other grounds) which would also...

    Doug King Takeover

    Haven't got time to look it up at the moment but pretty sure there's a regulation that requires a minimum of a 10 year lease in place. Of course the downside of that means Frasers have the club over a barrel when it's time to negotiate, if they say they want £5m a year or some other ridiculous...

    Mascots now charged

    There's not a lot the club can really do about this I guess, limitation of the stadium, but it always annoys me when I look at the corporate offers that you only get parking if you book 4 places

    Is there any actual evidence to suggest that kids who don't get to be a mascot stop supporting the club? I was never a mascot, never considered it an issue, sure there's plenty of others on here who weren't either. The JSB organisers do a great job with limited resources, if we're sponsoring or...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Cardiff City Match Thread - Thursday 29th Dec

    Hard to disagree, fear the squad is just too small to sustain a serious promotion push and knowing our luck the takeover, if it is genuine, will be completed on the day the window closes Think there's probably too much work that needs to be done in the January window. To find the number and...

    O'Hare

    Gutted for him and us. Lost out on a potential move in the summer due to injury and now this. Treatment is good these days but who knows if he'll come back the player he was. I know we're short staffed but you'd imagine we've looked to see if there's anything on the clubs side that could be...

    Naughty Cov fans making national press

    well that's the question I guess. are other clubs seeing issues game in game out and having to put repeated statements out warning fans to behave? don't think any of us what to see more restrictions put in place but if people can't behave themself what else does the club do

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Isn't the problem that 50 years of case law is being wiped out overnight and this is what the legal system relies on to function And that in addition to that anything in existing UK legislation, such as the Equality Act, will have had case law applied in a manner that means it is compliant with...

    Gyokeres

    Are the people think Robins will be handed £5m - 10m if Vik goes assuming King is genuine and the deal will be done before the window closes or expecting Sepalla to suddenly decide she wants to give Robins a huge amount of money to strengthen the squad? Not particularly confident in either of...
