    We’ve had all kinds of terrible decisions go against us - we still do. It’s part of the game and you just have to deal with it.

    Anonymity for the Accused?

    It’s been tried a few times in the past 50 years but the law keeps going back and forth on it and there isn’t much evidence of it having much effect one way or the other. Rape charities say it would serve to reinforce the idea that rape cases are somehow more likely to involve false claims...

    Fiona Bruce

    There was nothing stopping her from delivering that health warning from Stanley Johnson’s lawyers in a way that wouldn’t make it sound like a casual dismissal of the issue. It’s a serious issue and it required more concentration on her part than she afforded it - she’s paid a heavy price for it...

    Fiona Bruce

    Her job as an ambassador for Refuge was to promote the charity’s causes. If her clumsy job of moderating a panel undermines her ability to do that in the eyes of enough people (on Twitter or anywhere else), then it doesn’t make sense for her to continue in the role.

    23/24 Season Tickets

    That’s all fair - I want to see it with my own eyes from the club first though. I’m just frustrated that we as fans are supposed to be blaming ourselves for not adequately funding the club - as if we would have had a chance of success this year, if only we hadn’t been so selfish as to pay...

    23/24 Season Tickets

    I would agree if we’d seen a real correlation between ST sales and investment in the squad, but that hasn’t happened has it? Certainly not this year. Season ticket revenue alone isn’t going to move the needle in this division. Make every season ticket holder pay £75 extra (many won’t) and that...

    23/24 Season Tickets

    That doesn’t explain why it’s an inherently bad idea for our STs to be more affordable than our peers’, nor does it explain why our brand would be damaged by doing so. Our cheap season tickets are a bad business idea which have helped to rejuvenate the city’s relationship with the club, and...

    23/24 Season Tickets

    Very brave stance for you, someone who drives to games, to demand the club puts up season ticket prices but offsets it with cheaper parking Why shouldn’t our STs be the third cheapest? Does our brand suffer if we’re known for being a team that doesn’t just price tickets according to how much...

    23/24 Season Tickets

    In what way? I’m saying it might be nice if season tickets were affordable for a broader group of people; I’m not saying they should be given out like candy.

    23/24 Season Tickets

    It’s about defending against the fallacy that unless we fans suck up a ~30% increase, then we don’t care about the club’s ability to compete financially. While it’s obvious that the current pricing doesn’t make a ton of economic sense, having artificially cheap season tickets can benefit the...

    23/24 Season Tickets

    If you want the team to compete at the top then you need an owner willing to stump up cash. We are never going to move the needle on transfers etc through ST revenue alone.

    23/24 Season Tickets

    Spot on. If you’re going to justify a 75% increase in ST prices, then you’re going to need to justify it a bit better than just saying “Well you were getting a good deal before”

    BBC.

    I’m not trying to slow walk the debate, I’m trying to understand why you’re so upset that people don’t speak out more about comparable controversies. If there are “infinite” examples of people being suspended from their job for giving a political opinion, why don’t you just expose all the...

    BBC.

    He’s asking for an example of someone who’s been suspended by the BBC because it’s the best/most direct comparison to Lineker’s case. You can hardly be upset at people for not speaking up before if there haven’t been any comparable cases to speak out about. So again - who are the ones we missed?
