Honestly not sure.

It’s true. I don’t.

You can see there Kelly is who you bring in in a scrap to get blocks and tackles in and lump it away, but you aren’t going to build a footballing team around him.

I want pin badges for ST holders! Collect them all. I want to be boring the pants off some young whippersnapper when I’m 70 looking like I’ve fought in two world wars there’s so many badges on my jacket.

I don’t get the relationship between WFH and caring for society? Aside from anything else I suspect it’s probably the single best move for the climate and local economies we could do easily and cheaply.

We’ve spent £2m+ the last couple of close seasons.

He got 8 assists, all after January I think. Double that for a whole season and add in 12 goals and he’d have more assists than Buendia and only three less goals 🤷 I’m not saying he could do it, but if he did he’s be worth £7m easy.

Should we have forced Paul Scholes to give an interview every match or hounded him out of Man Utd? There’s loads of top sportsmen who don’t engage with the media to that level.

I started this and made £100 or so, still have the money in the accounts cos I was waiting to move and needed to send ID which I didn’t have. Should probably get back on that but it sure feels like a grind. That said no more than arguing with Grendel on here and at least you get paid.

Revenue per ticket was £10/head at the Ricoh I believe (or close to that). Depends what you think we lost in crowds, but say 10k to make the maths easy and that’s £100k per game/£2.3m over a season. Even if it’s not 10k a game, reduced ancillary spend, reduced ticket prices at Brum, and rent...

No evidence but I worry the run in is important for attracting and locking in new fans for the following years. I worry that we, in typical City fashion, managed to get promoted the one season that didn’t happen. That said, if we hit 10k STs then it looks good for 18-20k average next year which...

Depends on the situation doesn’t it? If the vaccine has “failed” at one dose for the new variant then you wait until people have had two. If it needs a booster shot maybe you do that. 18 months on and you seem to be struggling with the idea of following the data still. And also with the idea...

Sorry not talking about over a season, but those last five games. I think we’d have seen over 20k average for those.

You don’t think we’d have sold 20k for our first title winning run in in a lifetime?

Yeah we’re about to hire one instead of a real employee because they’re cheap basically.

Lots of very sensible people saying there’s cause for concern including those who have been positive throughout. But yeah journalists are scum for mentioning it and viruses understand the mental toll people are having by having their events cancelled and will give us a break. Come on people.

Fag packet maths I seem to remember working the lost revenue out to £2-2.5m before any rent increases. So £3m seems about right.

Yeah the way it’s worded provides a lot of wiggle room. I’d misremembered it as they’ll foot the Bill, rather than they’ll do what they’ve always done and lend us money.

Ah not a direct quote then, a “Telegraph understands” “It’s understood that the club’s owners, Sisu, have agreed to underwrite any shortfall in the budget as a result of reduced season ticket sales to ensure Robins has similar funds to last year.” Thanks.

Help me out here SBT, I’ve got a memory of Boddy saying any losses from the move to Birmingham would be funded by the owners. Have I imagined that because I can’t find the interview anywhere. It was when it all kicked off.
