Any fan ownership wouldn't last long. #SellBeforeWeDai have looked into this ( STAR ) and found that in most case's the Clubs have to find a wealthy long-term buyer after a couple of years. We really need to hope the next buyer is a decent one, but I've lost all faith in that after the corrupt Zing...

Madejski can't afford to buy the club outright He can. What's it worth? £20m? £25m? Playing staff are our only assets. Stadium/Training Ground can be leased unless he wants to stump up the money for those as well. Debt gets refinanced with the banks. But why would SJM want this burden at his age? I...

As I mentioned last week, a family friend of ours wrote the statement on behalf of Pang last week, which I mentioned only because it was questioned if Pang wrote it himself or not. She says what's become public so far doesn't even scratch the surface. It's all rather depressing! There aren't many go...

Whilst we 'hope' Bowen has big sway here now, he still doesn't. He wanted Ince gone in January and Dai said no. Dai does what he wants, and still listens to his mate Kia. I wouldn't be surprised if Bowen wants Wilder, Wilder wants to come as we've heard, but it's the dickhead owner and his best mate...

I thought Murty's injury problems cleared up after it was discovered that one of his legs was slightly longer than the other and he started to wear inserts in one of his boots to compensate. Didn't know about this, I knew Little's legs were not the same length. Would be quite something to have both...

NathStPaul Southampton after Swansea manager Russell Martin.
Don't get him, achieved next to nothing with Swansea all in all.
Then yes, please get him.

It's an important issue because not so many years ago we were whining at Leeds because they only have the most expensive area of Elland Road available for away supports, specifically so they can charge them more. It's a shameless bit of exploitation, and this attitude of "let's charge away fan...

Can't argue with the Club's logic. Happy with that! Also this - "Moving visiting supporters to the Upper West also enables the club to charge a proportion of away fans a higher ticket price than we are currently able to. Regulations mean we are obligated to offer visiting supporters the same p...

Agree they should have done more for the U21s but I also wouldn't trivialise the seniors - if you got 80% of your pay would you also consider it no big deal? It would certainly start alarm bells ringing as this could be a sign of things to come, but most of us, myself included can get by with 20% o...

Franchise FC Interesting that any potential buyers will now be able to say “Well, we would’ve given you £10m but we know you’re desperate so here’s £5m”
Sounds somewhat familiar.

Just seen on BBC website https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63669051 Points deduction? No FFP losses are "only" 26.5m for the current period, helped by a near 16m profit made 4 years ago. Next year will be very tricky for them though unless they manage to bring in a decent wedge from sa...

NathStPaulWeymouth Royal So Barnsley away to Hudds tonight in a must win. They're down with anything but a win.
Thanks for the clarification on what 'must win' means. Had no idea until you explained it.
No problem grumpy bollocks.
