I wouldn't have a clue myself, but Kieran Maguire, that football finance expert who comments on these things from time to time, reckons it's worth much less. I think the figure he used was something like £15-20m.

A value he puts on the club if relegated and in 12 months time, once all parachute payments have disappeared from the revenue, and reflecting a much lower revenue for the club

they tried to get a banner stopped, but the city fans revolted

9 months later, city fans were moved to the north stand for whatever reasons they spouted

Although I'm 60, I'm happy with 65 For the oap. It's the young people's concessions we need, the parents/ grandparents already have a full price ticket to buy. The kids must be on a concession. Are you listening you tyre squealing nob jockey
I see it more as an acknowledgement of the number of years spent supporting your team. At 60 that was already over 50 years for me.
But i agree kids must be the first priority.

Wages are lower in t'north as well. The point is disposable income. Incidentally the second lowest was Norwich. Yet they still fill their ground. Must be a proper football city. And it has the third most pubs per square mile in England to tempt people.
We live in a very similar close of houses to my wifes parents 200 miles away in the northwest.
Because of the disposable income after housing costs situation, it is really evident by the much superior standard of cars parked on the drives in the NW.
 
The club is worth however much someone wants to pay for it, there may have been a bidding war forcing the price up, the Allams would have relished this so if they are set to receive £40-45m they are not going to blow it now

However a 60 year old could turn up for their first season when a club reaches the top flight.

Let’s not forget as well, Disabled concessions, the ones that The Allams ‘tested the water ‘ with to see if they could get away with.

The UN report concluded life for Disabled people is 55% more expensive on average, and that doesn’t stop at 65, it’s for the rest of life.

Absolutely. But that's the point. Im not convincwd anyone will want to pay £40m for it and that's why the Allams are trying desperately to make it look like they're about to miss out by not doing so.

Lest we forget most of the 'fans' weren't onside at this point. Loads in the ground booed, tutted and tsked.
 
Most in the East cheered them on. People started to come down the steps to help keep that flag. In fact I think it was that that made the stewards relent.

A lot in the East Stand did, but I'd suggest the majority of the home fans were either passive or against it all.

It's unbelievable how many different ways, with his limited brain power, he manages to find to make himself look a ****.


Thanks, No1. That's put me in a really bad mood for the weekend.

There was sick in my mouth :angry:

I'm not ****ing surprised Kempton.

I'm sure I've said this before but Norwich City have decent owners and they value their fans. They have valued their fans for many years. It's not really a mystery how they fill their ground.
