Perhaps I'm just a grumpy fucker at the moment.
Not much happening so stick the boot into Fatty and Associates
I don't think we're in much of a position to consider Roverum's attendances as wrong, if you consider they averaged 351 more than us this season.

Yeah, but I'd like to think that if we were in their position for most of the season we would have attracted quite a few more.
Of course, the new stadium factor has added to it

Didn't they double their average in a single season or something? Good statistic to quote to all the naysayers who think we're rooted to 8,000 to 9,000 in perpetuity.

Well last season we were in at least as good a position and for a while in the auto places, and were 78 better off a game. However you want to look at it our home crowds, entitle us to be around the top ten of Div 3 and not much more.... like Roverum.

Was reading the article about Villa being up for sale on the BBC site and found Paul Lamberts comments rather worrying There's nothing imminent. I don't know how long it takes to sell a football club. It's not like you're selling a car or a house." http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27485236I think we need to get Bob Holt in there soonish to help they obviously dont understand

Particularly this bit: Tell them this is what we’re good at. What Crewe are good at. And Southampton. And Swindon. It makes a pleasant change to see a rival team's fan saying something good about us.....

£50m for David Luiz (allegedly).
The world has actually gone mad.

Seriously, considering that PSG were one of the clubs which failed the FFP, and they get nowhere near the same TV revenue as English clubs, I think you can safely say PSG and their Qatari owners are totally ignoring FFP.
Of course, the Qatari owners were backed to buy PSG by a certain Michel Platini.

And they are also being fined/punished for breaching FFP in exactly the same way as Man City are. You seem to have an obsession that Platini is somehow "letting off" PSG while harshly punishing Man City, but, like most Daily Mail-inspired "the nasty French are picking on us" conspiracy theories it's just not true.

Yeah, Platini is a massive knobjockey no matter which way you slice it.
