No ,obviously there are home games, they're pushing the cheapo Forest game to get some swans in sharpish. I wonder why. Now if they pushed Plymouth they might get about 2000 advanced sales. Revenue 40,000£. By pushing the Forest game I'd guess they're hoping to get some "Look darling I bought us some Saints tickets for XMas" money. Say 8000 at £15 , expected revenue 120K,makes a lot of difference.What is more it's a game we might even win and get a spin off crowd boost for the next home match; It's a game that falls very well, chance of winning, cheap tickets,near Xmas, yep ,ticks all the boxes.

I think it's that we've gone 6 months with no directorate changes, could be wrong, could be some other hidden innuendo in there somewhere.

Only if it's "unclassified" information, don't embarrass the poor lady, just seems a lot to me . I would have thought that some of the benefits would be ongoing even if she took a 16K a year job, probably still come out on the plus side of the ledger.

They could do them at half time at SMS, would probably put another 10K on the gate.

Sooner or later we will start scoring, probably not at Reading though. If we can transform our tries, we'll be hard to beat. They'll be a few 4-3 wins though unless Svensson is really up to the job someday soon;

How does she make up the £20K a year then, I mean I might be missing out on a career opportunity here. 20K, that's err about 28000 euros a year or 2300 euros a month, at least double the minimum wage in France, only 1 child as well, get f-ll for that here.

Without a doubt the mortgage is with St Mary's Stadium Ltd.

Rich girl uses Vaseline, Poor girls uses lard, But Dinah uses axle grease cos her ****'* so ******g hard. Rugby ditty made famous by the Jock Strap Ensemble; NB; Marmite stings your **** a bit;

Well I wouldn't know in the UK, we're with Neuf-AOL in France, 34.99 Euros a month including free national telephone, really illimited internet and Cable TV

Can he do Pompey, 8.30 sharp tomorrow morning?

Richmond thinks that Rupert eats all the money, just like that Pope who ate all his gold because they told him it was a cure for something or other.

Sounds like the film with Dudley Moore and Bo Derek, Ravel's Bolero ???

He sits in the stands most home games, he's an approachable guy, someone could ask him.Don't think he does betting tips though.

Quelle honte, best throw yourself into the Solent then; Cures spots as well.

Strange, I would say that Euell is nearer the ball than the Wolves player, so to be fractionally late he would have to have far less velocity.

Probably not actually, I mean we might go bust but more home defeats probably won't accelerate that; We are down to core support anyway. Had a bit of a blip on Saturday because there were a few Wolves fans there. some people will go anyway. I did back in the 60's,70's and 80's, moaned about getting beaten of course but I was "core support".Now David Luker said in an interview with Nick I that the break even figure was 17K, so we've been over that a couple of times. Other times when we haven't we've been on TV, I think we get about 70K for that, equivalent to another 3500 bums on seats in the stadium. Next season there is some more generalised TV appearance money on tap I think, did I hear a figure of about 3.5 million per CCC club? That's jackpot payola really, if it's guaranteed to all those in the CCC in 2009/2010 you can bet yer old boots we"ll be there, by hook or by crook;As long as we stay in 21st place or better there is no great cause for alarm as yet.

Nah, the Japanese have already done that, can't remember what the TV show was called though. Somalia is the in pirates den, we should just use the place as a nuclear test zone and start again.How can anybody let a 300,000 ton oil tanker get pirated and do nothing about it.I'd just wait for a nice fresh breeze from the North and send the boys up from Diego Garcia for some target practice,.that'd sort those Somalis out;

Putting your hand in your pocket is indeed a noble gesture. Unfortunately if there's nothing in the said pocket it becomes pointless.

Dull accountant indeed!! I'm a mad scientist.Even we are subjected to budgetary restraints you know.Mind you there was some Australian who got a grant to study Shark Sh!t.

Sounds like the Peoples Front of Judea, football doesn't work that way. You pay your money (or not) and watch what is on offer. When you go to the Gaumont (or whatever) to watch a group or a pantomime, you don't get any say in who is in the group or the cast. When you buy a book, you don't get to give the author your opinion before he writes it. You pay your money and don't take your choice. Football management is not a Greek Democracy.

Yes but in order to "invest" in players with elevated salaries the club needs a guarantee from the faithful that they will in fact turn up, ie season tickets So with what 9500 or so season tickets sold and the rest on a walk up if I feel like it or can be arsed basis we have what we deserve, a lowly paid budget team who are doing as best as they can.When ST sales dropped by 4000 this year (guaranteed revenue of about 2 million I suppose) well you could bet your old boots that guaranteed outgoings (player salaries) will follow suit.

Oh was that the point then. Fans say who their ticket money should pay. Right got that,so then we wouldn't need a manager or a board really. Just the fans voting on Thursday for who should play on Saturday.Sounds very similar to the selection policy of the Sunday League team at the Bitterne Park Hotel.We didn't have a manager either, just a committee made up of whoever was there on Thursday evening.

But the ticket income does pay players wages, in fact there isn't enough to pay them already. I really don't quite see what your point is. If we had more ticket income,well I guess we'd pay better players.The answer is simple, if you want to pay "high earners" well more people have to go to the game every home game.If 30000 went instead of say 16000 we'd have 14000x20£x23 ie 6.44 million more in the kitty.

But is there no small and medium business development board that could help you?.Or is the UK now a totally capitalist state where it's a general free for all and bugger those who haven't got "collateral". Just a thought. If you owe £2300 to the government in VAT, that means that you've turned over about 13000£ + in this VAT period. So £8500 of contracts means you're a bit down. They've probably analysed all that and decided you're a bad risk.
