Re: Why wont the club tell us the truth?

I am a ST holder for the 2nd year running so will continue to go and support RFC but currently just feel a bit deflated. Maybe it's coz my cousin supports Palace that there's a touch of envy Well don't feel deflated. Next season after they are relegated and we beat them 3-0 at the Madstad, you'll w...

Re: Why wont the club tell us the truth?

appreciate that but as said elsewhere on another thread the financial benefits of staying in the Premier League are enormous. Presumably the club were not prepared to take the risk in case it didn't work out? It would be nice to know but probably never will. Frustrating isn't it!

Re: Why wont the club tell us the truth?

Apart from when selling the silverware to stay financially viable without an owner with deep pockets, we've always made a loss in the Championship. We made a profit in our first two PL seasons. Ergo, we are better off finacially in the PL. The way we are run anyway. so why didn't we invest more to ...

Re: Why wont the club tell us the truth?

Who did you support before, Latecomer :?: I keep meaning to make a decent fist of supporting someone else tbh, a local non league team basically. No one really apart from Dad (no longer with us) supporting Arsenal so a degree of loyalty there. Got into supporting RFC due supporting teenage sons pla...

Re: Why wont the club tell us the truth?

I'm no economist but I would have though RFC would have been better staying up in the PL last year even if it meant buying some players and/or changing managers than slipping down into Championship. As I have said to RFC I blame inept management on this. But maybe we're better off financially in the...

Re: Why wont the club tell us the truth?

I just want someone at the club to tell us they have no real desire to be in the PL. This would then explain their behaviour to new signings last year and to the txfer window, I was very critical of Brian McD last season as he was blamed for not bringing in new players by AZ but I suspect now he had...

Re: NH on Radio Berkshire

At least I can take comfort in Palace buying 16 players having just reached the PL -they seemed intent on staying up. (Where do they get their money from?) Can some one remind me how many we bought when we were in their position :?:
