Re: NO MORE PENNY PINCHING IN L2 NEXT SEASON
I'm assuming that our EFL Trophy prize money paid for Keena, so losing £530K with no big outlays on other transfer fees is extremely worrying. I'd like to know where that money went - Seasons? May & Goodwin sales should balance the books, but what about the current season? Probably high wages f...

Re: NO MORE PENNY PINCHING IN L2 NEXT SEASON
A strike-force is an absolute must. Replacing the May and Goodwin is paramount, which certainly hasn't happened this season. Goodbye L1 and we welcome the joys of Barrow. 😡 Yes it is paramount - but we've just posted a £530k loss and if we get relegated some players will leave along with a reduced ...

Re: NO MORE PENNY PINCHING IN L2 NEXT SEASON
Which resulted in a big paid off... Not in the latest set of published accounts, it didn't. Ergo, that has nothing whatsoever to do with the £500k loss. Well it certainly contributed to the lost. A big chuck of the loss was the purchase of Seasons, so was expected. Wade’s payoff will be in the acco...

Think we need more than 48 or 49. The teams above us on 38/39 have 10/11 games left. I'd expect them all to hit 10 points on that amount of games. You would think so. but since mid Nov the performance of the teams in the relegation area have been remarkable consistent in not pushing that safety lin...

Re: Cheltenham Town v Burton Albion
A total of two shots on target in our last three games must be a big concern. How many did we have yesterday, I could only think of two both for Taylor one which seemed a certain goal but defender blocked it and the other the free header which the keeper caught easily. BBC says no efforts on target...

Having caught up with the teams above us, we seemed to have adopted a hang on and nick it style of play.

Reading expected to be deducted 2 more points. We’ll have to wait and see if it helps us. I’d rather we had back our own two points we binned against them.

Fulham are squarely aiming that pricing at tourists. Remember they were the first club to have a "neutral" end for neither home nor away fans. It's incredibly cynical and insulting to their own fans. Uli Hoeness at Bayern hit the nail on the head: “We could charge more than £104. Let's sa...
