Not downplaying the cost of tickets as it’s obviously substantial to lots, but I think comparatively the costs of tickets is competitive to other clubs?

Wrong, we're one of the most expensive in the championship.
Our individual matchday tickets are something like £38.
 

Same old stuff comes out when we are poor on the pitch. Haway man have one last push of positivity for the playoffs!

Lets see where we are after that

I think they start at £32

But I meant season tickets wise

Doesn’t it make it more affordable having a season ticket than individual tickets

I mean yes we do. He was called Stewart Donald. A fraud of a man who even went as far as to accuse fans of kidnapping his daughter.

He is an angel compared to the last 3 we’ve had in 10 years.
Ours don’t kidnap they attack those that they accuse of getting in their way with hammers.

Thats all we’ve ever had..
The only one who invested any kind of decent money was Short but put muppets in charge of it.
Never willing to take the next step and change us from the so called sleeping giant to a club that can hold its own. A brief flirt under Reid in my 45 years as a supporter is pathetic.
We’re so used to watching shite we over exaggerate the talents of anyone who shows a glimpse of anything near being any good.
Rigg isn’t going to set the world alight nor Bellingham either. They’re just decent that’s all.
This club deserves better than the penny pinching swindlers we’ve had in the past. It’s a crime that we’ve struggled so badly for the last 50 years.
If by a miracle we triumph in the play offs this owner will shit himself and we’ll be the whipping boys of nxt years premier league.

How much are you, personally, ready to pledge to the cause?
 
Throwing money at the squad has not worked for us in the past - Rodwell, Ndong. Reid's 7th placed teams were not expensive.
FFP has only added to the need to be sustainable.
Wage bill is a pretty good indicator of performance generally with Leeds, Burnley and Sheffield Utd paying the highest wages in this league. We come in around mid-table in the wage league so by that measure we are significantly over performing.
It's a tightrope - to succeed requires spending. Over spending could put you out of business.

There’s no way you can say this couldn’t be anymore not true, no one knows if either will be any good at top level,

you can take a guess and if I had too I’d say Bellingham might be a top 4 player he fits the prototype modern midfielder strong , athletic, can tackle and score a few, rigg doesn’t and from what I’ve watched doesn’t make up for his lack of build with excellent technique either so I’m far from convinced he will be a top player

I'm not talking about that...I'm simply saying he is a Mag, he's blatant

We were the original 'Bank of England' Club. Broke the £1000 transfer record. Splashed cash like no one had ever seen ££ 😀
So 'all we've ever had' is not right.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
Can't be arsed to read through more than the first page.

Short spunked loads. KLD hasn't.

Which squad has most resale value? Any under Short or this one?

OK where does that money come from? The chairman's pocket? Easy to spend someone else's cash. Do we sell assets like Watson with our fans acting like gilted lovers and crying everytime a player leaves us?
Alternatively it comes from us, I'm not paying hundreds of quid more a year for my season ticket to keep players here. We're still a working class city and people's financial commitment to the club can only stretch so far. If that stops us from being an established top flight club until a bored billionaire or despotic regime comes along then so be it
