If the four flats each own a quarter of the freehold, who are you paying the ground rent to? And what for? I was in a similar position, and the four flat owners just agreed to abolish the ground rent when we bought the freehold.

Firstly, it's not a question of 10 points or 17, it would be 10 plus 17, 27 in total which I think is what a couple of teams started on this year? My point was that if we go into admin and take the 10 point hit, it's unlikely that we'd get things sorted until the summer. We'd then have a further 17 point deduction to start next season with.

We may not owe them at the minute, but unless we've stashed a load of funds away to pay future bills from them, we'll owe them in the future.

Even if we took the 10 point hit this season, we'd still get an additional one next year as HMRC aren't accepting CVA's (?). Think the league have been hitting people with 17 point deductions for coming out of administration without a CVA.

I'm not sure we've got a few games to be honest. If we are going to do anything, it needs to happen now.

Does it make sense though, to expand all your grounds by 10-20,000 just for one tournament? Wouldn't you just end up with a load of half-empty stadiums afterwards? I wonder what happened to all the grounds they built in Portugal and Austria-Switzerland for recent competitions? There's no point having big grounds if you haven't got the population to fill them. England has the advantage that all the grounds are already there and are full every week. We could host a world cup our european championships at a few weeks notice if we had to. The current economic situation will mean people look more closely at this sort of issue than they have in the past.

Who are we talking about, the one who looks like the baddie in Charlies Angels?

Much poorer clubs than us seem to be able to afford to sack their managers. I don't buy this excuse that we haven't got the money to pay JP off. How long is his contract anyway? Even if it's longer than a year I imagine there's a break clause in there somewhere. Surely you wouldn't hire an unproven manager and give him a watertight 2 or 3 year contract?

Although I don't for a minute think you are a plant, that it is a bit of a silly thing to say as history shows Lowe takes this site very seriously, enough to waste the club's money on paying people to post on here.

Jay was co-commentating on 5Live on Saturday, and was asked about the Norwich job. He said something along the lines of: So he didn't seem to think Norwich was an option.

Just a thought, but maybe Hockaday is on gardening leave as he's fallen out with JP, then when JP is sacked he'll waltz back in as boss or in tandem with Boothroyd?

People, if you're at work, don't google image search Rachel Riley....... =;

Isn't a demonstration on private property trespass, and therefore a civil offence?

£6,500 per household sounds like an awful lot. What do they expect us to do with that money? Loft insulation about £300, cavity wall insulation about the same, then what? Can we buy new boilers etc? Maybe that's why Worcester Bosch just announced 1000 new jobs.

Norwich haven't been playing him have they? I wonder why,as they are about as crap as us.

Yeah yeah, I think we all know that you read my post before you wrote your own. :yawinkle:

Billy?

Has anyone on this thread suggested that those prices should apply for every game? Edit: Although if they did, you'd get a lot more than 1,500 fans extra at each game.

I was more meaning players who came from there and did pretty much nothing for us. While that was the case for Redknapp, Case was slightly different. To be fair to Potter, he did leave Liverpool and went to Wolves. He hasn't played a single game for them this season.

I was about to comment on the likelihood of this actually happening. If, as appears likely, the Conservatives win the next election, they'll just cancel it anyway. So a lot of fuss about nothing really.

We've had some classics from Liverpool actually: Sammy Lee Mark Walters Barry Venison (obviously not all directly from Liverpool, but I tend to think of all of them as 'Liverpool players')

Presumably Saints will know how much truth there is in that. They'll have the records of how many people bought tickets for both games.
