1964 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 When does the point come when they have to close down parts of the stadium? They're embarrassing themselves at the moment, and surely they'd be better off forcing everyone closer together anyway? They could even bring the red seats down from under cover to replace the pink ones by the pitch. Already been announced for next season. Bungalow of Light marra. Ground floor squat in a derelict building is more apt. I thought it was a nice touch when they opened it to the homeless during the recent cold snap. I now realise they had just moved in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I see people are far overestimating their playing squad again. They’ve got Honeyman and Gooch mate. They’ll walk it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I see people are far overestimating their playing squad again. Aye, I think they might struggle. People are pointing out how well the relegated clubs last season did, but they didn't need completely rebuilding like this lot. They have to find a manager, try and give away all the overpaid shite that's still on their books and somehow put together a new squad with very little money and only about 10 weeks until the season starts. Good luck with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 See their first choice manager has turned them down an signed a new contract at Sheff Utd. However you just know that whoever takes the job is going to be so much better than Rafa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with that. There's also some simple maths working very much against them despite some of the more delusional thinking that their financial woes left with Ellis Short. Let's consider just two of their many highly paid but not really fit for purpose players, Cattermole and Rodwell. Round numbers, but they earn cerca 110K per week between them. They're flogging season tickets at around 200 quid. That's 550 season ticket sales per week or 28,000 sales per year just to cover their two salaries and there are quite a few others too. No other team down there is fighting against that handicap. At least Ellis Short,for all his faults, had pockets deep enough to cover that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
