    Cortese V Lowe

    I don't disagree. you are right, but this is a larger can of worms then just arguing against Cortese. It's a trend, that while leaving a dodgy taste will provide the club with more funds. This is an ethic used by many other organisations. So may not directly contradict the idea of 'business ethics.' You are trying to launch a crusade beyond this club, into the wider capitalist world. Either go for it or shut the hell up, your whinning is getting annoying, we understand your dislike for it, ok. (I understand this has been campaigned against before and upheld..... you really will need some luck.)

    Cortese V Lowe

    Have you ever been to a concert? Been to a major event? The same booking fees apply there. It has become a fact of life for many though. I salute you for staying below the radar enough to avoid them so far.
  3. That X Faxtor guy Murs hasn't done badly either. Sign him up! Ralph Little has been looking for a league break at RB too.....
  4. If we detonate the bridges leading in, then maybe they could float towards them?
  5. May go against the 'Sash' concept, but it would be extremely smart.
  6. You seriously came on here, searched back through the threads history specifically to find any evidence of discussion about the Manc anti glazer protests and then bumped it to post that!? Special, Very special.
  7. :smt069:rolleyes:
  8. I can extract walnuts from their cases, at a distance of 734.98 miles WITH MY MIND.
  9. 2k for a tele and people are scrabbling around to find 300 or so to buy a season ticket... Seriously? Are the glasses worth it? I've only just upgraded to HD, I don't want to goalposts shifting again so soon.

    Cortese V Lowe

    Lowe had total control via the elect of the shareholders, and thus full control of the money himself, he spoke for the majority of them and they allowed him total say. Cortese is here at the discretion of Markus. Without Cortese, Markus simply wouldn't be here anyway, maybe that solidifies his position, who knows, but he answers to a boss for his actions, he is working for the company on the request of his employer. He is also under pressure to deliver, and he does not control the money. As far as I am concerned the comparison is not valid. Even taking the worst case scenario in mind the is no competition. Eccentric without money vs Tyrant with his employers money. Tyrant please! The points you raise Dune are minutae. Utterly irrelevant to how we perform on the pitch.

    Cortese V Lowe

    It's not as simple as Lowe v Cortese. It's Lowe v Cortese/Leibherr. As a result there is simply no comparison.
  13. Coupling Just Shoot Me! Eurovision The Inbetweeners Bottom Gordon Brown (Now his idiocy is history)
  14. #1 - No #2 - YESSS!!!!!!
  15. It's almost a shame this comment has been dignified as the poor thing just doesn't get it. Bless it. Bless it dearly, needs all the help it can get.
  16. Yeah, if this is a serious mistake they'll learn from it. If not, it's a mountain from a molehill, and the antagonists will learn to save before they spend next time.
  17. This is not a class war. Remember that. One error in judgement by the guys in charge and things go stupid. Get a ****ing grip. Compared to 12 months ago we are in dreamland. Unless of course you desire a payment plan for conference football under a lowe based regime.
  18. Oh the irony.
  19. I wonder what the exact proportion is? And how much it will be offset by new purchasers.
  20. Indeed. Put up or shut up.
  21. Hmmm, they offer personal loans!
  22. They could before though on the previous 'pay on tick' terms. I totally disagree with that form of financing, but I can understand the frustration in it no longer being available.
  23. It's the idea of spending money you don't have that's actually got this country into so much crap. This culture of buy now pay later rather then save up and only buy when you can really is bloody damaging.
  24. If you can't afford a season ticket then maybe you shouldn't have one. Pay on the day or avoid the need to pay on tick by saving up through the year (360 quid.... tenner per week) to ensure you can buy in one go. Runs and hides.
