  1. 5k reduction in sales from the start of the season. We still have 4 months and 11 bajillion phases before then. There won't be a massive difference in the end. Relegation a bit lower, stay up a bit higher.
  2. Did anyone else think that this is a complete no brainer and assumed that it happened anyway, just didn't get mentioned because it was normal and not newsworthy?
  3. We have a good, young base to start a full rebuild from in L1 too. Only Ihiekwe, Smith and Delgado contracted who are over 30, who will all play a role at that level. Cadamarteri, Gassama and Musaba v L1 defences will be fun to watch. We're only a couple of midfielders and a left back away from a decent side with who's still under contract.
  4. Football clubs are more like antiques or curios than businesses. A painting has no material value, the cost is what people are willing to pay for it or what people are willing to sell it for. As long as Chansiri is happy to keep going, and doesn't want to or have to sell, the club is worth whatever he says it is, the material cost of the parts of the club are irrelevant.
  5. Week 39. Disappointing draw at the end, but gained a point on most of the bottom teams. Swansea were W3D1L1 going into today, so a point is OK in the grand scheme of things. Keep grinding them out and we'll be reight. Huddersfield, Birmingham, Blackburn and Plymouth all looking vulnerable, can't see any of them picking up many points going forward.
  6. No, it's only renewals at the minute. Have to wait for you to get yours first.
  7. Is anyone else waiting for the penny to drop with all these American investment funds? They're not going to keep pumping money into the bottomless pit that football is, they're going to want a return sooner or later. Wouldn't be surprised if the plan was to get enough clubs in the EPL to get a majority then pull the drawbridge up and the main reason the regulator is coming in is to stop that happening.
  8. He undoubtedly makes things worse and could do with counting to 10, but it's very rare that it's not a reaction to something else. Hearing about these issues for the first time via Chansiri rant doesn't help his case.
  9. Chansiri is reactive. If things are ticking away he stays away. He only publicly gets involved if there's already an issue.
  10. Phuti came on as a 95th minute sub in Zimbabwe's 3-1 defeat to Kenya tonight.
  11. Bernard played 90 minutes yesterday in the CONCACAF 3rd place playoff v Panama. Won 1-0.
  12. Any minutes and goals are going to do him the world of good. The biggest problem with being promoted to the first team is he's not getting as much game time while he's on the first team bench.
  13. Don't know if anyone's seen it but Cadamarteri started v USA and scored a penalty in a 3-2 defeat. Ugbo also assisted for Canada's first goal.
  14. Sorry, it was to 'unite and inspire'
  15. There's adding random crosses and coming out and saying you've redesigned the flag to make it more inclusive. There's a difference between adding designs based on the flag and replacing it.
  16. Frickley drew 0-0 with Tadcaster. Little one lasted till full time, which isn't bad for a 6 year old. Forgot how windy it is on Frickley hill, knew I'd fucked up when I went in and saw all the massive coats and bobble hats. Frickley play in the Wednesday template kit from last season, saw some of the Frickley version of the green macron Chris Powell bobble hats, tried to get one but they'd sold out. Chips, pie, peas and gravy for a fiver, £2.70 for chips and gravy, spent about £16 all in with the ticket. Can't argue with that. All in all, decent afternoon out, little one enjoyed it and wants to go again
  17. The majority of posts that I have seen on social media that don't include this site. It's not healthy living in a bubble. Everyone when used in this fashion is a generalisation used quite widely to mean a lot of people, not mythical or made up in the slightest. Did I do something to you in a past life or something? You started with my spelling, now grammar. What's next, the fucking font?
  18. Everyone saying Sunderland is perfect for him when they're setting themselves up as a player farm to rake in money from player sales with no ambition of league success.
  19. Why would he go to Sunderland? Chansiri has literally given him the keys to the castle here, he can do his own thing which is the complete opposite of Sunderalnd's way of working. For all the criticism of the lean structure, has anyone bothered ri ask if Rohl actually likes it that way and the recruitment of 2 other managers as his assistants is with this in mind?
  20. Yep, but I'm going to take it in the spirit intended.
  21. Frickley only get about 4-500 per game, so new fans can only be a good thing. A decent percentage is kids. Last time I went, the food was pretty good and reasonably priced, so I'll end up spending a bit on food and drink. It's only £7 for an adult anyway, so they'll make it up on concessions.
  22. I'm taking the little one for her first game. Not expecting to make it to half time but it gets her out and about. They gave these cards out at the schools yesterday so she wants to give it a go.
