  1. Season ticket income is a small percentage of the club’s overall revenue. If 30,000 people each paid an extra £100 a season that would be less than £3m of extra income. There is VAT to come off that of course and I don’t think we have that many ST holders. The extra £2.5m wouldn’t even pay the salary of some players let alone managerial compensation.
  2. Whenever we came home from abroad with our caravan it was searched on both sides of the crossing.

    Still a sovereign independent country.
  4. Yep, I was referring to purchases. There may have been some currency variations over the period of these but not significant. Whatever, we’ve paid over the odds for a lot of players.
  5. Different dog, same shite.
  6. Our record transfer is Kamaldeen Sulemana. Just let that sink in for a moment.

    Revolutionary! Has anyone ever tried this? I would love to see how this works in action. Our lack of goals has a lot to do with not playing anybody up at the spearpoint. We were at home, against Wolves, and what does the clown do? He picks a back five which includes two right backs both playing in the right back position and getting in each other’s way, and Dibling and ‘Show Pony Sulemana’ ©️ as our only attacking threats who are unsurprisingly double marked for most of the first half. It’s no wonder that we spend the whole time passing the ball across the back because that’s where most of our players are. Fernandes was the one stand out player so Dippy Doric hauls him off for no apparent reason. We all thought that the must have had an injury because there was no other reason for it. It never crossed our minds that Duric might just be clueless.

    Those of us who were there know where the bulk of the blame lies.

    Today was the end for me. The starting line up was bizarre. No attackers, two right backs, a back five. Or was it six? Substituting Fernandes. And I was bloody cold. I can’t really find a way to blame Juric for that but I’m still looking.
  10. The first perhaps. The second was beyond his reach. I’m more disappointed with Sulemana’s goal line clearance of their goal line when he had to score.
  11. No connection whatsoever.

    Also ‘get a striker on the pitch’
  13. You still get adverts but they’re for BBC programmes and products.

    Heh, Vladimir! Come and look at the view out of this open window.
  15. But then they wouldn't be able to charge their Teslas. Oh well.
  16. Not for two weeks.
  17. Why, the ones that tend to push your own point of view of course!
  18. Not the ones I know.
  19. They’re so weak they don’t count as beers.
  20. I was at Forest when he scored. Twice, wasn’t it?
  21. With good reason. He was the player whom Branfoot was going to use to replace MLT just as he scored the first of those unforgettable two goals against Newcastle.
  22. I have always had to pay. Indeed, this government seems to assume that ever pensioner is rolling in money.
  23. That’s only for those who receive Pension Credit. Those who have been careful and have saved for their old age are ‘penalised’ .
