Football itself needs to sort itself out. Even if we charged £40 a ticket it wouldn’t even cover our wages. Why are fans the ones penalised? Why do I need to stump up more to cover wages? Why can’t players take pay cuts so business can become sustainable? We’ve let Palmer go, on roughly £20k a week. If we charged Reading fans £20 instead of £28 I think I read it’ll cost us £9k. That’s less than half of Palmers salary. And then in return we can get cheaper tickets to the away game. Why do we have to pay for Lansdown mistakes? We don’t even sell out so it’s not a supply and demand issue.

Aren’t we back now? I assumed he’s flying to Bristol.

Wasn't that offered before Bajic? Bajic would replace OLeary as our number two, with OLeary going on loan. Buse will remain 3rd choice.

Seems weird how quiet this one has gone?

Saw them Sat supporting the Rolling Stones. Was a little underwhelmed to be honest. But it's tough being a support act in Hyde Park when people don't really know you.

I agree. Not sure why any City fans will give him a reception. Although he did do a great job in his last role.

Did it say on our website that O'Dowda signed for Cardiff?

https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/city-announce-retained-list/ He’s out of contract.

Why would there be? He's left us.

And signed a really poor keeper.

How are Reading above us? A cert to go down IMO.

Likely break the £20m this summer too!

It will be a squad game. All different options. Can play back 4, with a CDM and Williams shielding. Can play back 5, with 3 in midfield but Scott as a false 10. Can play 442 with Scott and Sykes wide. Depends on the opposition. Depends on fitness. Depends on form.

To play alongside Williams.

Needs to be playing games at his age, plus this is a 3 year deal vs our 1 deal. Really good for him!

He's there! Was on Insta

Good job he's only 6'1...

Bentley was the same age as Max is now when he joined us. He had already played 100 games in the Championship by then. Bents is only 28 now, I’d rather have him for another 2-3 more years and then maybe look to have this new kid take over.

Just got engaged, perhaps that’s to do with the delay?

Why? Every thread is a good discussion topic, and all is relevant (well perhaps not the Hull travel). It's out of season, there's a limit of things to discuss, at least he's making conversations.

Nope, I believe saying someone only gets a job because they tick a box, with no proof of that, is a dick move. Why say anything at all? What is there to gain from saying it? Harry posting that, is proof, of him being a dick. I'm calling him out, so moving forward he doesn't just belittle peoples good news without good reason. That's the difference.

Exactly. So why not take the route of not being a dick. What has Harry benefitted from saying that? Downsy could come this forum, and feel rather shit from reading Harry’s post to be honest.

He is saying Downsy only got the job because he's gay. Not because he's the most talented. That is unfair, he does not know this at all.
