As a comparison. Kassam sold off the Manor Ground for development, raked in millions and built the 3-sided monstrosity the football club now play in - charging them, I think, £750,000 pa in rent. The lease agreement is finishing reasonably soon so they either have to find a site and build a new stadium before they get embroiled in a new lease extension.

Especially when they scrape a draw it’s always a corner turned.

It’s difficult for a keeper to come through the ranks at most clubs. Just guessing, but the percentage must be very small. Our keepers drop down to non league, Championship club’s keepers drop down to our level. Steven Benda, who we had on loan from Swansea a couple of seasons back, was the best keeper we’ve had in a while. I think he’s now 1st choice at Swansea. I’d put Wollacott right up there with him. Presume you’ve got a decent sell on - he’ll be worth a few quid.

This is eerily like the Oxford situation when Uncle Firoz got hold of the club. Sold the Manor Ground for redevelopment, built a cheap as chips 3-sided monstrosity and then charged the club £750,000 per annum to rent it.

Poor and clueless enough to beat your agricultural hoof merchants

Would be that from some of your finest who were seen on their toes before the game?

I personally don't give a flying one if we won cos you had a man sent off or 5 men sent off. We won and that's all that matters. If things had been reversed you wouldn't have cared a jot either,do you can dress it up any way that makes you feel better about it, but the fact is you got beat. End of. Now let's see if you can avoid doing a Preston - win 8 in a row then lose 3 in a row

TBH we have got a bit of a reputation for, shall we say, over-Reacting. But your fella was rightly sent off and a couple of others were lucky not to join him in the first 15 mins. Seemed your players were mightily wound up from the start. I know you will point to the dismissal as the reason for your defeat and FWIW I thought in the first half you played very well. 2nd half we mullered you
