It’s already happening with the NHS see PPE and TnT. Just funnelling cash to their mates like some African warlord and no one gives a shot cos they’re on the right side of Brexitor whatever.

I don’t see that pulling in the £10m/year or so we’d need. Though TBH I have no idea how much it’s worth.

This is my nagging worry. And what I’ve been driving at about our budget. I’m not convinced how we can be sustainable above L1 even in a new ground. I worry some fans think the only reason we aren’t competitive is because we don’t own our own ground when our financial issues are more systemic...

I think what’s clear is that CCFC jumped the gun a bit announcing what they did when they did. It’s understandable as we were also announcing not coming back at around the same time, but ironically it would probably have been better if we’d not said anything until the site was finalised and the...

Can we not just institute a “looking like a fucking scally” law. If you don’t look like a fucking scally you’re treated as a normal sensible adult. Scallys aren’t allowed to buy knives, fireworks, whipped cream, whatever.

Setting off fireworks unsafely in their back garden is every Brit’s god given right. That said, I’d rather see them sold to over 21s, with more controls and far higher fines/sentences for using them in public.

Kleptocracy.

I doubt we’ll hear about a new ground much until the uni have consulted, the A45 link road is finalised, and a partnership between the uni and the club is agreed. Which written out sounds like a long way away. Next year at the earliest I’d guess.

“we’re looking to try and get that quality” could just mean quality in our play, not necessarily bringing in players.

I’ve lost track of the vaccine stuff. Do we have a working vaccine then? If not how is everyone promising vaccines for Xmas?

Really? I thought it was concussion and they had a minimum period. Good to hear

What’s it like living in a sensible country?

You can find literally any opinion on Twitter. Half of them are probably edgy 14 year olds.

I thought the one under the ring road by IKEA had shut but the other day saw a few people in hi vis there as well. Fuck knows what’s going on.

Pace alone changes how teams set up and creates space. Even if the end product is poor. Even if they don’t get the ball. At L1 level Giles was probably more rapid than 90% of fullbacks, now it’s more like 50-60%. The jump in pace and power at this level is insane. We added virtually no pace and...

Richard Overson. Joys $2.3bn. (/s before Nick goes in two footed early)

Mental. The exact thing happened with my ex and she wasn’t allowed a test and had to isolate for two weeks while someone else took her classes.

First year wages were £13.3m four years ago (so there will have been inflation). Say we take your £10m figure, that’s five or so players on £10-15k pw. That’s a significant addition to the existing squad. You worked out which manager is going to get more out of this squad yet?

That’s the mental thing. They aren’t taking unpopular decisions for the good of whatever. This shit Is them trying to make popular decisions among their base, even though there’s no evidence their base as they see it exists. I reckon Cummings has handed the Tories a bunch of voters they don’t...

Fair enough. Though TBH most of my frustration with the virus is a sense that we’re going to be stuck in this shit forever for political reasons.
