Re: Time to drop London Irish?

How many rugby games in a season?

If it's 20, and we make £750k a year from them then basically it costs £37.5k a time to hire it out.

Cheap at the price perhaps, but it's an asset sat there otherwise doing nothing.

Re: Time to drop London Irish?

ZacNaloen ^ previous problems with the pitch were due to an infection of some fungus and overzealous use of weed killer.

Pretty embarrasing for the ground staff - was an explanation as to how this happened ever given?

The departure of Gordon Neate was always going to be tough TBF.

Re: Stadium naming - where you stand

Interesting.

I guess Wembley you don't call The Wembley Stadium, but then that's because it's a geographic name.

Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

Maybe. That certain is true, but all the evidence suggests that there are loads Of other reasons why people who love to have secret bank accounts in Non-English jurisdictions like to take over English football clubs.

Re: Swindle Town

I've never liked the 'us' thing, too tribal.

Ultimately it's entertainment and if you get fed up with it then yeh, stop going and if there's another team you would enjoy watching in the local area then why wouldn't you give that a go?

Re: Going to watch 'General Football'

Got a free ticket to go and watch Chelsea tomorrow. It'll be the first top flight game I've seen since watching Southampton at the Dell circa 2001.

Re: Mcdermott Signs New Contract

Reading between the lines I would guess what was said was about AZ's ambition to be in the Premier League and potentially what he could do investment wise to get us there? Just a guess. If rumours are to be believed it was that Anton would seriously reconsider purchasing the club if McDermott wasn'...

Re: Mcdermott Signs New Contract

According to SSN Wolves asked for permission to speak to Brian but we didn't reply and gave him a new contract. Lol now that is the way to do business, just don't reply! Maybe we should have done that when the phone was ringing for Long I'm amazed this "need permission to speak to someone"...
