News from the world beaters down the road.

"Just been talking to my Swindon Town mate who is well in at the County ground, he has just given me this insight into Swindon's cash flow situation. Apparently Swindle have played one home game in the last six and that was Tuesday when only 6500 turned up for the Rochdale game. This Saturday they are at home again to Colchester with yes you guessed it another money spinning 7000 crowd anticipated with a quid a kid attraction. All of this is causing cash flow problems again at Swindon and they are allegedly desperate to play us on the 15th because of the revenue it will generate even if it is played with players missing.
 I suggested to him I would organise a mass boycott to force them to sell in January.

soapy tit wank

'Well in at the County Ground' my hairy arse!

All this coming from fans of a club losing £10m per year, fucking shitheads.

Dense springs to mind  :D

Probably just saw the advert for the Town on "if you can't pay we'll take it away" and put 11 and 11 together on his fingers and toes anc come up with eleventyseven.

so dense that light bends around him

Initally replied thinking the pissy ones down the a420 were chopsing off.  :doh:

The Internet is kind to fuck nuggets, they can say anything unless their mum catches them, and they will.. Desperate rubbish, from err, rubbish.

Swindle. Seriously ffs.

This is of course bollocks. It's obvious that if we keep getting 6,500-7,000 attendances we're going to have to sell. Power has said that himself.

Let's just hope it doesn't come to that.

We're sustainable at the minute, but we can't stay that way on low crowds.

At least last year we had the income from Chelsea, so we have to hope the FA Cup gets us a just-as-fruitful match with a good £££ value.

Your exile lasted long then.

Our crowds are unusually low for us, about 1-2k down on what I would expect, but we get better gates than most of this division. City, Bradford, Preston, Sheffield United, Coventry and Barnsley are the exception but that is no surprise.

"It just goes to show once again that they will never move forward by having this rediculous short term policy by letting clubs higher up the league ladder use them as a door step to blood players."

yes, because they have achieved so much more than us over the years...

Been watching Brian Cox again SY ?  ;D

What we really need is a wealthy businessman to put a lot of money into the club so we can enjoy league one football,  oh wait!

All this coming from a club losing money hand over fist. What a bunch of jokers they are.

How do they ever stick within the FFP rules losing that much every season? Put politely it's cheating

More like Malcolm Tucker.

My mate Dave said Lansdown has been working with people with ebola, thus might pop his clogs, thus the shitheads are in serious financial shit.

Anyone can make up shit on the internet.

Whilst clearly made up I would approach any response with far less confidence given what happened last time.

It's been literally months since our last brush with financial Armageddon.  To be fair, we're probably due another cashflow catastrophe quite soon.

I missed the Lee Power interview whilst I was on holiday, but didn't he say we are breaking even now?

He said that but quantified it with essentially saying budgeted break even, I.e. their will be a shortfall if crowds don't meet budget expectations. Which they don't right now.

Rochdale was never going to be a big crowd

It was Rochdale
Weather was shit
Champions league on TV
2 home games in week so people rather go Saturday
Week before pay day for most

Kid a quid should have been in operation at this game as well!

Last title 54/55

Year I was born!

Goading the fuckers at the moment

"Just been talking to my twat of a mate who is well in at the 3 sided shit hole, he has just given me this insight into The Pox's cash flow situation. Apparently The wankers have not played well at anyhome games this season and crowds are 2,000 down on the shit crowds of last year. Getting only4,000 causing cash flow problems again at The 3 sided tip and they are allegedly desperate to play us on the 15th because of the revenue it will generate playing a big side even if it is played with players missing.
 I suggested to him I would organise a mass boycott to force them to sell in January however he said we have fuck all to sell

in the year 5455? Are you one of Zager and Evans?

Shitty have only existed since 1981 !!

Are they really England's most underachieving footballing city?

Easily. 

It's something like the 6th biggest city in the country.
