But folks....the Transfer window isn't about potentially improving the team...

It's about the journey, i think we can all say we have lived a little and learned a little and maybe made a few friends.

In the end....isn't that what REALLY counts?

  1. As far as I can tell, 21,000 season tickets are still available at the same prices as the 21,000 tickets that were sold for the last season at WHL. The difference is all in the extra 20,000 season tickets, of which some are cheaper but most are more expensive (I think about a 30/70% split). This is obviously going to raise the average ticket price in terms of the mean, but I think you'll find that the mode is not dramatically different to what it is. However, on the basis that ticket prices are expensive, that's nothing to do with who we sign. It's everything to do with supply and demand, with the fact that our ground has just been built so has the most state of the art facilities to run and, by default, the most expensive facilities to run, the fact that our ground, apart from Ashburton Grove, is on the most expensive plot of land rates wise in the entire country, and the fact that the product available next season, a club in the Champions League with some of the best players in the country, England captain included, is one of the top products in the country. Think of it like this, it is far more expensive run a shop selling fine chocolate in Hampstead, even if you never change the stock for something different, than it is to sell Dairy Milk one week, Galaxy the next and Mars the next from an equally sized shop in Salford. The cost of my season ticket and all the others is everything to do with a simple equation involving runnings costs, demand for product and scarcity of the product and absolutely nothing to do with what transfers we make.
  2. We hover around top 3 at least based on the last 3 seasons of 3rd, 2nd, 3rd.
  3. I can't comment on that because, like everyone else here, I haven't the foggiest.

Anyway, I've had a fun day, I hope all you lot who have doh'd and spammed the hell out of me also have, it's all one big panto really and we all play our roles very well. I for one am disappointed that we haven't strengthened and concerned it will bite us in the bum, but am hoping that it doesn't and that the excellent players and manager we have will be able to deliver another fine season. COYS.

You annoy the fuck out of me, but you're a good sport. Enjoy the beach

think someone at the club accidentally simmed through the entire off season.

Better re-load that save file.

No, not really

Thankfully i've been pretty chilled with it as its been clear someones been allowed to post apparent ITK info, for some unknown reason, talks out of his backside and hasnt called 1 thing right all summer.

But i'm sure after this window everything will be reviewed and the guys in charge will make sure we dont have to listen to any BS in future windows.

At least we tried

Not hard enough it seems. We should be an attractive side to want to sign for. New stadium, great manager, huge prospects so who knows where it all went wrong.

I’m guessing the ITK from day one about 150mil odd spending may have been a little off the mark or that we just played hard ball too much.
