How could they miscalculate the crowd thing, do you buy that "honestly"
How could they miscalculate the crowd thing, do you buy that "honestly"The club has already let the cat out of the bag on this. They got their budget wrong at the start of the season, remember the mentions of needing an average gate of 14k? There was a shortfall against that. There were suggestions that SISU have had to cover additional costs last season. We have no idea how much of the Maddison money has been received to date either.
Id rather believe the accounts than juggy (when they come out)How could they miscalculate the crowd thing, do you buy that "honestly"
My guess would be the match packages were too popular which would mean there would be a big drop in average ticket price.How could they miscalculate the crowd thing, do you buy that "honestly"
Oh Brother the 10th-8th bloody budget again.....:arghh:
Yeah that would make sense, find something popular that brings supporters backMy guess would be the match packages were too popular which would mean there would be a big drop in average ticket price.
It was 8th-6th and it was stated by the man who was spending the budget. That budget was an overspend based on 11k attendances been break even.
When actually we needed 14k to balance the books.
So if we are now balancing the books the budget will be less than that one.
You said you know more than him. I forgot about that, we should go back to your version.
We have a top four budget.

Hold on. Haven't ticket prices increased by an average of 35% according to Juggy? So our budget will be higher this year surely?
I was told ages ago by a politician. who I would call a senior politician, when the whole truth is told it won't be believed.
Why aren't we doing more to attract supporters ? Package deals , family deals , kids for a quid ,etc,etc
Look at how full the place was for our return when it was £10 a ticket , then the very next game it was back to the usual £25+ , such shortsighted thinking
I completely follow those statements.
Would you agree though, that the budget Mowbray has been given is probably acceptable to give League One a good go? Therefore, where we are at the moment in terms of squad probably rests on his shoulders more than SISU's?
I've always said this mate, but the idiots on here don't see it. The Club has to be self sufficient(Which I understand) but if the money saved from sales and saving on the higher wages were to actually go to the Club, we'd have a decent "War chest" for better players coming in than we have nowWh
What about 15 players out, on decent wages, and only signing 6 players?
It comes back to that old scenario though of do you want to sell a handful of tickets at £25 in a 2/3rd empty arena or do you want to sell a few thousand more at say £10-£15. Once the tickets are purchased other spend will follow and the atmosphere can also be improved, plus they might just return !

players are classed as self employed and will pay there own tax and N.I. and will pay a fraction of what P.A.Y.E contributers pay. and as self employed the club does not have to offer a pension plan.
They have better support than us for starters.Can someone please explain how Bradford City do it then please? They charge loads less for admission & ground always full (ish).
In went in off Ferguson's beard....
nothing to do with the club
That's why there is a PFA pension scheme.

They have spent time in the premier league in the last 20 years, had successful promotion campaigns etc. More to shout about, their stadium is in a better location and so on. Unfortunately, I think it comes down to the fact more people want to support Bradford than want to support CCFC. Just making the tickets cheap wont guarantee anything. If Spurs and Accrington had the same ticket prices, they still wont take the same gates..
I know. That's why I said the PFA pension scheme... It's a footballers private pension.nothing to do with the club
Ha...I knew you were rubbish at numbers and I'd catch you out one day. You say a 'couple of points' then list 10! Busted!

Some Clubs don't give a s**t about players but most help retired/injured players as much as they can. My old Club paid for everything(Relocating from Scotland to South Wales) When injury forced my retirement.that's ok some on here think the club is a charity for wealthy footballers
It's SISU pal, you try talking to so many people around the City and you will hear the same sort of thing...................'Those owners, they are having a laugh with the fans money', SISU are taking whatever they can, there is no investment, they are spending all the money on court cases, admin charges, money laundering, tax avoidance, lying about everything, etc etcCan someone please explain how Bradford City do it then please?

Now even I accept that there is a stack of exaggeration and mistruths from people who plainly don't fully understand the workings of a football club and relative costs but the fact is if that's what these ordinary folk think and it's preventing them from supporting 'Their' club then it's a major stumbling block for CCFC progress.
Here is a crazier one - invest in a team people might want to watch - its normal for business to invest. . Why would anyone turn up to watch that crap unless they had foolishly bought a season ticket?Here's s crazy idea - we could get more fans to attend games and increase that budget significantly.
That really is your biased opinion, there maybe exaggeration and mistruths but the evidence suggests that the hedge fund created their own shit storm and therefore are central to our demise.Glad you agree with what I have been saying about exaggeration and mistruths and that they are an issue.
Just a shame people keep making them up, and when they get corrected start calling everybody SISU Lovers. Also a shame that people who make loads of shit up get so much airtime in the local media to push their crap.

Too right mate, Speculate to accumulate if you want results. The onus is on the owners to supply the window dressing that entices customers into the shop to buy. Only a idiot buys something without seeing/trying out, the goods first.Here is a crazier one - invest in a team people might want to watch - its normal for business to invest. .

I've got your dream car for sale at 10k less than anyone else is offering. are you going to buy it? Or do you want to "Test drive" it first? It's a load of sh**e. The wheels are falling off. The brakes don't work. The engine has done 250k miles and is rattling its bo**ocks off. but I won't let you "Test drive" it...... Do you still want to buy it?But they would spend days on internet forums talking about said goods? How is that comparison working?
