Presumably the Calne thing is going to be funded by grants and the Calne Town Council...so I suppose it's best to adopt a scarf over head approach to it.

You kind of answered your own point there. Do we want a yo yo lower league club with small attendances? I would suggest that most supporters wouldn't.
Bouncing between Leagues 2 & 1 on 4700 gate is a success.

I suspect that as many of our fans are disgusted that the board are trying to get the payroll down to 'only' £4.5m that a quite substantial reality check would be needed to reach this level.
I thought that the pay roll was this and they're cutting it in half?

We are a yo yo club but with better attendances already. Difference is Exeter pend withinwtheir means so will continue to operate well, we will probably go into administration again eventually unless we change.

Shambles over the County Ground gig ticketing...Jed kept going on about how the cash income from the gigs was guaranteed whether they go ahead or not.
Look on the bright side- we get the money and the pitch isn't ruined! Brucie Bonus!

I don't know how we ever got used to not having stories of laughable incompetence appearing every few days with Nick Watkins in charge. These sort of stories are much more in line of what's expected from Swindon Town Football Club.

I thought the club were not organising the events anyway, isn't it a third party with the club just providing the venue?

Yep What the fuck is the adver up to on Facebook: Who would be surprised to hear that there is still no update on the County Ground ticket sales situation?
In a related note, Tulisa (who is one of the acts due to perform on the Friday night) has been arrested on suspicion of supplying class A drugs.

Really?! Is that with all the booking fees and stuff, they were initially advertised at £35, which wasn't bad for the number of acts, I guess.
