Once again we come back to the same point. The vast majority of clubs don't have the facilities that the Ricoh has. What we need is to be on an equal footing with them. Sure it would be great to have a huge hall and conference rooms etc but how many grounds have?

Indeed but it means you'd be generating a lot less. Most venues won't let you bring in catering outlets so you'd have to use theirs and they would keep the profit. Similarly many places will insist you use their security, ticketing, staff etc. Plus you then have to pay a hire fee. You probably...

Exactly. Chesterfield play in a 10K capacity stadium with an average attendance of 7K. That gave them a turnover of £7.4m and a profit of £85K (before player sales). Their total debt is at £8m. They finished 6th in L1. We play in a 32K stadium with (for the last Ricoh season before Northampton)...

Fisher has confirmed that already hasn't he? They are looking over the boundary as they won't deal with CCC.

As crap as it may be the saddest part is if it makes them some cash they're doing better than us.

You're probably right. If Old Trafford is the only 10K+ ground and we have the most there we win! Would there have been any bigger years back when they'd cram people in? I'd guess not as not as many people had cars.

Someone mentioned the IRA earlier and I posted on here what if other countries had started bombing England when the IRA were active on our shores?

Winds me up, just answer a simple bloody question. The worst is PMQs, especially with Corbyn going for the calmer approach. Think that needs to be looked at and the speaker given the power to insist the question is properly answered.

It wouldn't. What happens when ISIS start hiding out in schools and hospitals. Do we just blow them up?

In light of what was revealed in the ethics committee meeting that isn't really too surprising is it?

Its an interesting point. One of the Sunday papers did some polling where they first asked about Con / Lab and Cameron / Corbyn and got answers pretty much in line with what we see currently. They then polled the same people but on issues, the support for the conservatives and Cameron dropped...

Not watched the video yet as I can't have sound on in the office but Ford is also quoted on the BBC website: The chair of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee has also come out against airstrikes: He also rubbished Cameron's claim that there are 70,000 moderate Syrian ground troops ready to...

Equally if your company spends money training you and you bugger off they can claim it back off you. Think there has to be a balance. If he's here for a few days for TM to have a look then fair enough we pay. If he gets offered a contract and then changes his mind why should the club cover his...

We certainly don't want any terrorist sypathisers having a say in this :facepalm: Interesting point. Can we assume all those in favour of bombing Syria, which will undoubtedly lead to civilian deaths, would have supported other countries bombing England when the IRA was active here? And of...

When they were on the board they wanted to close the academy to save money.

The first half of this season has been awful. You could have quite easily not watched any of it and not missed anything of great importance.

TM doesn't strike me as the sort of person who will stand for being messed around by players and their agents. He's said before there's plenty of players out there so if he doesn't get this guy he'll just move on to his next target.

They can if the court requests the information or the bank feels they have a public duty to release the information.

Interesting idea. When the JR case was going on I did wonder why CCC didn't get someone from YB to come and give evidence. Say that SISU approached them about a lo-ball offer they would never have accepted. All seemed a bit tin foil hat but it would have been an obvious thing to do in my opinion.

Its highly unlikely we'll stay top from now until the end of the season. Need to keep in the mix at the moment and see where we are when the transfer window closes.
