TRon Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Surely they still don't think they're better off with Grayson than Rafa, surely They still haven't twigged that the championship is a lot more difficult proposition to the last time they were down there. It'll dawn on them eventually, seems they are even more clueless about football than Mike Ashley who probably expected Rafa to have sewn it up by Christmas last season.

Sima quoted it recently for hilarity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Quite a few of them seem to think they are about to go into Administration . . . https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/administration.1392629/ Can't see it, not yet, but heard last week that there were rumours coming out of the SoS via staff members that something was happening and it would result in job losses. It will be just that. Bain will be cutting the headcount as corporate bookings have dried up, match day is only seeing 20k or so regardless of the official figures and those who are going just aren't spending money. There's been talk of closing parts of the stadium and moving the away fans, there's also talk that land owned (i think this refers to training and academy) has already been sold and will come out in the next accounts. There's even suggestions the club doesn't even own the stadium anymore. Whatever part of any of that is true, its a total mess, however the 40% cut in wages has saved them. Without that the club would be in Administration right now, but the wages are reportedly under £40m pa, ans while the parachute payments are still coming in there is room to downsize and keep asset stripping, selling players to recover some money back. Until that is no longer the case, or the do the unthinkable and secure a double relegation, then they'll keep doing what they're doing and avoid Admin. Though its just existing to die, there really is no hope for them until this comes to its natural end which is Administration. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
