Where do people think getting a new ground will create more revenue !!! More fans at Peaks Parkway.......... !!!! I think not, in my humble opinion if we move grounds I think the crowd will slightly decrease. The bottom line with this club is that we have a negative thinking Board of Directors (with the exception of the odd one) and until this changes it will always be a wing and a prayer. Certain fans have rose colorured spectacles that is for sure. Didn't Fenty say that we would build a squad to mount a challenge in this divison ? I believe our only challenge will be staying in this division, we are quite simply ill equipped at the moment. Moving grounds !!! What retail opportunities will exist at Peaks Parkway, moving grounds for us will be just the same as when Notts County did it. We will move our fan base circa 4-6000, to a ground where we rattle around in. We can certainly grow as a club, I don't doubt this at all, just not under the current Board.

And you accuse the board of negative thinking, your post is so negative I'd be slitting my wrists if I believed it. Even if the crowd did go down, and I think the average increase is around 40% at new stadia, we'd still have extra income beyond the 25 times a year BP currently gets used. It's this extra income which is the key. |

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football'  |

Hope they are not going to charge us £5 a match to park a la Wycombe.

I cannot see anyone coming in with real money to work alongside Mr Fenty.
I doubt very much anyone with Monopoly money would be interested |

Always plenty of street parking available at Wycombe - housing estates just off the main road from the M40. Save money and getting stuck in that industrial estate road and sliding around the sheep field. |

Completely out of proportion I think at this stage, a team we hammered and played off the park with this squad are currently top, another team we were outplaying until 2 individual errors the other days are also near the top after 4 games, we also only lost 1-0 to Derby away with this squad.. Other than one bad blforst half against Colchester ad a few individual lapses in concentration, we had done alright, results will come.

Am I thick or am I thick ? I do not understand why as stated in various posts on several occasions that a 2 year deal takes more out of the budget than a 1 year deal. It seems common sense even for a 3 year old but then again I might just be thick.
It doesn't. It's just a longer term commitment that might go sour if we get relegated and can't sustain the wages, or if Manager A loses his job and Manager B is allowed to come in and pay off the old bloke's players. |

Don't use up all your excuses too quickly - the way things are looking you might well need them at the end of the season. At least you haven't blamed referees yet (unlike some) |

Do you even want us to do well? Surely its common courtesy to give a team/squad that have not played badly at all some settling in time? The tables don't mean a thing at this stage - one win and we would be mid table. |
