For anyone interested there's a voucher in today's Telegraph for discounted tickets for the games against Crawley and Salford.



Is that what is known as devaluing the product?

they think it unlikely that the game will be on.. The safety issues that still have to be resolved are not just minor issues


Here's a very interesting comment from that thread

The really irritating thing is that people like Guy Branston writing in the League Football paper don't really know what the situation is, talk about sustainability and liken us to Bury who way overspent their means. Our case is completely different as we have a very low budget which is within our means but it is the owner who is drawing money off this income and has jeopardised the whole future of our club.

Any parallels that we can draw??

I don't know the exact situation of their owner, but there is a subtle difference between drawing money [as in a premium] from the income and drawing your own money from it like JF.

Just for the record I do not want to see any club fold to keep us within the football league.

However, their demise is beyond our control and unfortunately benefits us and other clubs near the bottom.

I think it's terrible that due to administrative member ups a club should lose points, points are available for each game played, win lose or draw and that should be the only way a club can gain points, not losing any. At this rate if the mighty Man U look like getting relegated from the premier the authorities will give them points bonus for running such a good hospitality unit.

Their owners "bought" MUFC with leveraged debt, and have taken hundreds of millions of pounds out of it since doing so. A fit and proper way to run a club.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Yes, and the club is now worth probably 5 times what they " bought" it for, if you have a bit of money clever  people can make more. Just ask our non chairman.

Got the game on the TV via a HDMI cable, beer poured, come on Town let's get that ĺong awaited win.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”
