Doesn't that only really give them scope to lose £8m over the next 2 years? |

Literally cheating, but they get away with it.
Nah, it's OK - the REAL cheating is signing loan players |

Championship finances are skewed by the parachute payments relegated clubs enjoy. Other clubs, such as the 'traders really do have to gamble with high stakes to have a crack at promotion. Even clubs with fair support and decent stadia seem to struggle.
Still hope we have another chance in the Championship one day and even for a number of seasons. Vagaries of one playing season to the next aside, the acquisition of the CG could prove to be a small step in the right direction.

We could change our logo to a similar version of Cheltenham Town ala Bristol City

Wrong established date on it as well I see. Have they deliberately made the 18 bit smaller as they realise it's not quite truthful? |

Apparently the club was formed in 1894 as Bristol south end and became city in 97 Either date is wrong as club reformed in 1982 Meh |

Just to clarify i meant it as a means of how 'it could actually be worse' by changing. Not that i wanted it to happen. With that logo and the robins nickname i automatically think of Cheltenham. I wonder if our logo will ever be changed again for branding purposes. Probably something as/if we raise up the leagues/ ground development and the owners sees it as needed for bulk printing and recognition. |

It's a shit nickname for the obvious reason that it's used by others and not by us. How often do you hear 'Come on the Robins!' from the stands? Hardly ever. We barely identify with it.

Ah but how many of them have a short ass in a robin costume that's way too big for them do a shit dance before kick off. Our badge needs changing again at some point purely because they fucked up the drawing of the loco on it. |
