You’ve assumed then basically.

And how would you know that? Given that budgets are irrelevant.

So you’re going to cancel your taxi then? Using your own theories our league performance could be outstripping our spending could it not?

Sigh We were already booked into the fifth round so the money was known. As already pointed out the majority of the cup run money was already secured in the first four games. Sigh again The first two ties can’t be netted of at losses as the winnings alone for those two games alone ensures...

Round one was £18k prize money plus a share of 3.3k ticket sales, round two was £ 27k prize money plus a share of 2.9k ticket sales. I doubt they were a loss before you even factor in that they had to be played to allow you to get to rounds 3,4 and 5

But you said that the budget was based on 9k gates. I’d imagine that this cup run more than makes up the difference. Most of the revenue from the cup run actually came before the Brighton game and before the transfer window closed, some £200k in prize money and a half share of 35+k ticket...

Think I read somewhere that getting to the fifth round was worth £380K in prize money alone. Attendances for all five games was just over 60K so half of that based on a very conservative £10 a ticket profit is worth over £ 300K. So being conservative we’re already well over £600K probably nearer...

FA cup must be worth we’ll over 500k in prize money and extra ticket income on its own.

You haven’t factored in the FA cup run.

Which probably makes it more likely that we have an underspend not overspend. Not that it matters either way as “budgets are an irrelevance”. Apparently;)

Thought you might. You have an idea of our budget and spend then? Maybe all the teams above us have overspent, maybe all the teams above us had bigger budgets and bigger spends. You don’t really know do you?

So if Robins hasn’t been able to spend our budget are you going to cancel his taxi?

The point being you don’t know that. Signing the petition could actually lead to that being clarified rather than assumed. For that reason alone it’s worth signing.

Good job it’s asking for an independent regulatory body of English football then and not the government to run football.

Try telling that to all the people saying we should sack Robins because we have one of the highest budgets in the league therefore finishing out of the top 3 or top 7 is failure.

Naaa. No one would say that. Surely every CCFC fan will think anything that sets out to try and stop another CCFC situation is worth pursuing.

Signed

Howe has been backed by the owners. Robins hasn’t.

Was reading that this spy was in the U.K. on diplomatic papers and had access to the House of Commons. In fact that’s where he met Corbyn. Wonder what other MP’s he met in his time here. The apparent secret Corbyn supplied was a photo copy of an article that had appeared in the British press.

Loved the Tic Toc. Saw loads of good bands there in my youth.
