Do I really need to explain this in more detail? Of course I'm not saying we bugger off to Northampton again. What I'm saying is our fans could give as little revenue as possible to Wasps.

Excellent today. Need to keep it up and get a couple more wins, take the series and then build on it.

Think the regular meeting was blown out of proportion to start with. Now with a new chap in place even less likely that anything significant happened.

If they start being a bit cheerful I might start listening again.

would rather go another game short and let TM take his time than rush into something and end up with a shit player.

if it was a post about football everyone would have ignored it.

Thought he had a serious injury and was going to be out for months? Probably better to face him now when he's not match fit.

So the big plan is to run up debt?

Not give Wasps revenue.

Not singling you out but why are people stating as fact that its 12K? The Reid article says 12-15K or 20K plus if we get promoted.

That's your answer, nothing is going to happen without their involvement. In the past, before we buggered off to Northampton, Rossborough was on CWR and said he had no issues with us groundsharing the Butts and the rugby club had a great relationship with the football club and woudl do anything...

We don't have a well supported successful team!

Are academy players youth loans? I think the difference is that they can go back and train with their parent club without it ending the loan.

Going along better today. 140-1 off 26 overs. Need to start upping the run rate now.

Staying in the PL would be easier than getting there as the % of revenue from matchday is far lower so if we had a smaller ground or were renting off Wasps it would be possible. Its getting there that is the hardest part. We have been told that under Wasps we will not be able to be competitive...

And how are we going to finance getting to the PL?

Aston Villa, West Ham and Everton are all in the Deloittes Football Money League top 25 (for 2013/14) yet total matchday incomes for those team represents on 12%, 17% and 16% respectively. For the same season 82% of Swansea's revenue came from TV rights.

Was just an example! Whole system worldwide needs looking at. FIFA were supposed to be looking at it but you wouldn't have much faith in them sorting anything out.

Wasn't particularly singling out Chelsea, just using them as an example. The EPPP means they can scoop up players on the cheap. Then the loan them out, at a fee, with the other club paying their wages. When they come back to Chelsea their value is likley to have increased as they have played...

I suspect archtects and planners use a more sophisticated method than copying a ground on Google Maps and pasting it into a new location. The point is the area available may well work for a 20K plus ground. There's plenty of grounds that have extremely limited parking. Personally I wouldn't...
