If that's the case, you won't want us to get promoted to the Premier League.

You're aware that we can't spend yes? You're aware that we were running losses of £20-25m and more when player sales occured- as in big player sales masked big or risking expenditure and losses. I won't bore everyone else with the details that I've posted many times but you're aware of the chasm between top tier rugby and football, hell a lot of Second Tier wage bills in football exceed Premiership Rugby wage bills. I could go on but you get the picture. Edited October 25, 2022 by Mr Popodopolous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexukhc Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 I am making my first trip to the gate on Saturday, I paid £30 for my ticket, book my train in month in advance which cost £25, rather than £53 if I was to buy it on the day, I'm gonna buy all the cider, treat myself to a spoons breakfast, I have rent, bills to pay etc, prob lose 5-0 but can’t complain, going alone so if anyone wants a drink before the game would be awesome 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you The way Swansea are playing, won 3 in a row I think it is now and us, playing better against the better teams, I think n hope it’ll be a cracker, hopefully a very firey game at that, but with you in the hope department Edited October 25, 2022 by alexukhc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say you have a season ticket for yourself, and am I correct in thinking you won't pay £30 for a ticket for your disabled wife? If that's the case, why didn't you get your wife a season ticket in order for you to claim a free one due to being her carer? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your wife only goes to games occasionally, then why does the fiver make you so angry...? Ifnits all about the price, then pick a different game. If it's about value - then I really don't see that £30 for a ticket and a free carers ticket as being bad value. You'd be happy to pay £25 - but think that £30 is outrageous - to the point that it needs do be vented on the forum...? Your "Lansdown prefers Rugby" nonsense loses you all credibility imo. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
