Focusing On The Positives As Opposed To The Negatives

[MattyRangers]

Pete started a thread on focusing on all the bad things that happened in the last 10 years, suggesting we should all be grateful now and I am asking what has that got to do with today. You really have to stop moaning about people moaning, when in fact they are only questioning what is happening.

you dont "only question" though do you, you have to add in words like "shambolic" and constantly have a whinge.... just cheer up abit eh Mason!

Is the build up to our PL campaign not shambolic then ?

PS: Shambolic means completely disorganised and chaotic.

How many deals have been done in the Premiership to this day?

A dozen???

[Loneranger80]

mate you are missing the point..... the news that we have had over the summer has been negative and has driven an even further wedge between the already engulffed board and the fans.... we need to hear something positive form the club...

I'm not commenting on the correctness of what you say am I Paul? No. I'msimply stating you needa cheer up.

PS: Condescending means: showing or implying a usually patronizing descent from dignity or superiority.

Only works on the basis of us selling out all 19 home games.

not at all mate, based on 16,000 average with 40 percent more expensive tickets in general will generate more income, our sponsorship deals are sure to be bigger too i would imagine as would our corporate.

Our overall wage bill i wouldn't expect to be as high!!

[singingranger]

Exactly. And you didnt just say "ticket revenue", you said "commercial income" ie shirt sales etc. With 10,000 more fans average per week, thats alot more commercial income via club shop isnt it.

our shirts will be more expensive as will our match day food etc, we will probably out sell northern clubs, based on 16,000 per week our commercial revenue will be higher than 1/3 of the division

It wouldn't work like that. All the clubs mentioned have corporate hospitality facilities that make ours look like a school canteen (size wise, not quality). That's where your money is. Ours won't touch the sides of Norwich for starters. This is why we desperately need a new stadium to compete in the longer term.

Our shirts and merch is actually cheaper than many of the smaller northern clubs and we still don't have a premium tier shirt sponsor. Those deals are hard to nail down for the sums we'd need. Hope Bernie is twisting a few F1 contacts arms.

Does the one game you mention, make up for a great season last season?

You are definitely right, we need a new ground.

[qblockpete]

I would expect our wage bill to far exceed generated revenue.

2002-2005 were three GREAT seasons. Possibly the most enjoyable since the early 80's.

Last season was spoiled for many fans due to the FA hearing and all the shenanigans from March onwards so we couldn't really celebrate with that hanging over us and the euphoria had been replaced by relief by the time of the announcement before the Leeds game. A parade alone would have help lift everyone.

Pete do you or do you not think that from the day the league ended till today has web shambolic, I do. Met up with two mates in the week and we discussed how badly the trophy presentation was, the music, speeches etc. Shambolic and embarrassing comes to me first. I'm a positive poster but nobody can deny that the last 2 months have been joke shop.

According to those grpahs posted on a thread on ehre earlier our wages are 118% of our revenue.....

I agree mate. I'm very optimistic but its been a complete mess in every sense. All my mates that support other clubs think we'rea complete laughing stock.

I just hope, no, pray, that things sort themselves out by the big kick off.... ie a few decent signings are made!

I disagree Nodge, our shirts are expensive compared to Stoke, Blackburn etc and our hospitality will exceed the likes of Wigan & Blackburn for example, and the others. We change our shirts more often than most too

Our sponsorship deal will be higher too for sure in my eyes
