Fuck off mate. The only input you add to anything is playground attacks on individuals.

Doesn’t answer my question. Couldn’t give a shiny shite what CJ did. I want to know when my club is coming home. Glad you’ve got more ammo for your next twitter spat though. Now we’ve got two biased entrenched fans groups with half the info each and a refusal to ask questions lest they lose...

Top notch debate from Diddy Dom again. Some of us want progress for the club and not just to score internet points against strangers but you do you.

Not much new news really. Did you ask for a likely timescale on the stadium? They’ve had six years is there anything to indicate the next six will be any different? I swear we were “down to three sites” years ago and now it’s up to six. Any ideas on how it’ll be funded or who will own it? What...

There are movements to ban the Union Flag though: Union Flag BAN: Students at Margaret Thatcher college demand ‘COLONIALIST’ symbol is axed And again the Japanese use the flag right now. It’s the flag for the Japanese Navy and they use it a lot in media and the like as well. The issue comes...

How do they determine “best” RB? I’d imagine it disadvantages a WB over a traditional FB (attacking play worth less defensive worth more)

How is it culturally insensitive? Japan uses that flag. It’s more akin for former colonies complaining about someone using a Union Flag.

No. PR is a myth and everyone hates us because they’re big meanies.

25% of the season left. We’re one up with 20-odd minutes to go. No City fan should be thinking the game is won.

Say it’s costing us £1.5m a season, what’s it costing Wasps? Sponsorship was £1m/season to start with and would be lower now even with us there and they won’t get nothing so that’s an absolute max of £1m/season and more likely closer to £500k. We were paying less than half a million rent IIRC...

True. Depends if we get a better cut or distribution of paid vs free (fewer school tickets? Fewer OAPs making it over?) but generally the point holds. Point is it’s costing us far more than it’s costing Wasps, which is shit because they’re the ones who need to budge and right now they have a...

We won’t last five years in Brum. Robins would go and we’d sink like a stone. Hopefully all sides realise how important a ground in Cov is to securing Championship status should we make it.

Average ticket income at the Ricoh was £10ish IIRC. Once you average out freebies and discounts and that.

We've probably lost 5-6k on average, so 22 x 6 x 10 = £1,320,000 over a season top end of that. I can’t imagine the rent was more than that at the Ricoh, though rents hardly the issue stopping us.

It’s suggested on the basis that football is a sport not a way of distributing scarce resources or a moral ideology. A system that makes the rich richer and the poor poorer isn’t a sustainable one. If you want that just do what the yanks do and nuke everything below the Prem, but even they have...

So we should scrap SCMP and FFP then?

Right. Except I’m not. And the fact you’ve already resorted to insult rather than argument suggests you’re just being the usual awkward fuck for the sake of it. It’s hardly a revolutionary concept, it exists in sports all over the world, calm down dear.

We have a wage cap already. I’m simply talking about changing which income is counted in it. Unclutch your pearls.

Im not too fussed on the details, but the idea we could go up and not earn enough for even half the lowest wage bill in the division is wrong IMO. The bar to entry should be no higher than the basic income floor of the division.

Exactly. There’s still an element of inequality as you get more for finishing higher up the league and it doesn’t stop you spending on academies or whatever perks you want to offer signings but the day to day costs would be covered for every club for the season. I just think you shouldn’t be too...
