Turning off lights, heating, chillers and climbing up floodlights all make sense. They're tangible things where a cost that isn't needed can be saved. Obviously they need to be turned on to provide the correct service when required, but I don't see how saving electricity can be considered a negative, it's a positive thing for both the environment and costs.
Having dud balls and hard pitch have obvious detrimental impacts. And the timing of these only coming out when we were nigh on certain for relegation, seems suspicious.
Turning the sprinklers on and off is pretty irrelevant anyway when you have furloughed the expert who looked after the pitches and let the chief executive "cut the grass" instead. Training facilities , or the players office as it has been known , suffered the same if not worse fate. That was penny pinching of the seriously short sighted nature......but i guess Holloway made that decision as it seems JF and the board didnt make a decision on anything at all this year according to their recent statement. |

Seem to remember the groundsman saying in the telegraph couple of years back that the last piece of equipment the club bought for the pitch was with the Wembley money from 1998!!

Enthusiasm is high, and I have always said I expect a short term increase in fans. My point has always been that there aren't thousands of people who were staying away because of Fenty, and those that do turn up will soon be sat at home again once we stop winning.
7,000…! |

Oh Pen my old Welsh friend…but it was thousands, at least 3500, that’s thousands, more than one, plural, a lot, many more…
Saving electricity is one thing but Fenty’s penny pinching would’ve had little impact on the clubs finances…also, having witnessed it with my own eyes, in the club shop, the way he spoke to people was a flipping disgrace. I literally see him chastise a young girl for leaving a stock room light on.
I know you like the chap but please just crawl out of the mans bottom and acknowledge he was a flipping disgrace…
You say convenient timing regarding equipment? Hardly, perhaps, unlike Mr Fenty, players and officials stuck to the clubs code of conduct and policies and recognised that making those comments would have a detrimental impact on them so here for waited until he left the building…ya know, like what happens in many other walks of life…
He was a girl private, he was useless, and you’re literally on your own these days….you’ve criticised for others for not being able to provide evidence (they have but it wasn’t sufficient to meet your needs) yet here we are without providing evidence again…

To be fair, we are still winning, so Pen's point will only be disproven when we are going through a bad spell, not winning games and the fans are still turning up in numbers. Which I believe they will. |

I’m sure he’ll point to Covid and new owners but after being relegated and the abject failure of previous seasons, to shift 3000 season tickets and have a decent size crowd first game without a ball being kicked is good going… |

How long did you have to go though to find that quote in order to throw it in his face - saddo Also as he said lets see if we do still get 7000 when we start losing a few (which we will I'm afraid, it's inevitable sometime.) |

I’m sure he’ll point to Covid …
Hurst will probably do that if we get beat today |

Maybe a minute…there is a search function on this forum. And yes continue to throw it in the face - it’s taken 10 weeks to add thousands of fans to a level we didn’t even get last time in the championship. Something must have been holding this club back… |

think that's untrue Ipswin - pretty sure he said in his pre match interview that Covid would not be used as an excuse, as we should have a strong enough squad to cope with a couple of players missing |
