Season tickets starting from £352! A tenner less than our starting point in infinitely better facilities at a higher level! Bonkers. Absolutely bonkers!

Norwich sold out of season tickets, 21,500 sold for a stadium that holds 27,000ish. You have to hold some back for PotD. What the doesn't explain is what that dumbass is banging on about. Not being able to sell out a 9,500 capacity ground does not guarantee you could fill a 15,000 seater ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 I'm off to Bath tomorrow for the races, just had a quick look at the runners and riders. In the 17.18 there is a horse called Quarter Blue. This causes me something of a dilemma. Do I back it, and with my track record of horse racing bets, ensure that every gashead there backs a losing horse, or do I put my faith in another donkey, the issue being that if I did back it, I would of course be rooting for it to win as that would mean £s, so what do I do? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoken to a number of colleagues who are STs at the Mem. They are finding the hard way that there is a huge disparity between L1 & L2 wages (they should see the Championship). Their highest paid players last season were only on a couple of grand. Tyler Walker who they have been linked with is on 7k. This is the problem that I highlighted on this thread in a couple of posts a month ago. The Gas have lost pretty much the entire nucleus of their squad (Both CBs, 3 out of 4 top scorers/assisters); and all of their loanees/1 year contracted players. They are having to rebuild in a higher league; whilst not really have the infrastructure to do that. The other promoted teams, have by and large been able to keep their squads together, and aren't afflicted in the same way. So far they're only been able to resign Trevor Clarke. Who lets be fair is not a key player for them, as he was out injured for most of last season. While being a relatively big team in L2, paying decent wages for that level, and using the Old Fleetwood connections. They are now competing against teams like Ipswich, Sheff Wed, Charlton, Portsmouth etc; who will all pay better wages, and will be much more attractive to players. Thus they will have to wait right until the end of the window for me; and pick up the scraps of players that other teams have passed on. Fair play to them on getting promoted after their first 4 months in the division. But there seemed to be no planning on what to do when/if they got promoted. It was just "Don't worry, we're sort something out". EDIT: They've also got a real chance of losing their last goalscorer Collins who is entering his last year of contract At least they've made one signing :- Bristol Rovers confirm Phat new signing for the 2022/23 League One campaign and beyond - Bristol Live (bristolpost.co.uk) Edited June 10, 2022 by NcnsBcfc 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 As far as recruitment goes, do you think the owner would let JB go ahead with possible signings while there's a threat of a conviction over his head? If Barton is convicted, he'd most probably lose his position as manager and, any new manager would want to build his own squad, which won't be easy in a very short space of time. That's unless the owner has morals like Barton and will continue to employ him even with a possible custodial sentence, with Joey giving his team talks and instructions whilst inside. Sounds like a perfect storm brewing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReds Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 They are just biding their time, there is loads of planning behind the scenes, key targets are being identified, and they are glad they haven't gone in early getting players in as this way they have planned properly. That's what my deluded Gas mate said anyway.... I mean who wants to get their business done early and have the squad all together, that makes no sense at all... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
