    Spuds get the go ahead for new stadium. This looks a good development for them, although it will be interesting to see how much the have to fund themselves rather than sponsored and how this affects transfer kitty over the next next three seasons. Paul Mitchell may become very important to them.

    The American Football tie up could be a master stroke in terms of US following.

    Palace investing several million in their ground too.

    West Ham in new stadium next season.

    Liverpool not that far off their development.


    A few clubs making significant changes

    There's an unspoken question in that post Fats, am I right?

    We are still at the team building stage....far more important for us than a financial risk on upgrading the ground.

    I think Fran's right for the moment, but it has to be on the agenda for the next 5 year plan, at least to get all the ducks in a row. A major sponsorship deal is the first priority.

    Maybe controversial but I wouldn't be averse to getting a stadium sponsorship name again if it brought a significant amount of money in. Everyone would still refer to it as St. Marys anyway.

    I was thinking more one that builds big buildings or arenas.... Bob the Builder & Sons.

    They would have to use certain branded cranes, of course.

    Really strange how things went so wrong one season after winning title. Although I don't think sacking the doctor had anything to do with it, it was an early sign that something odd was going on.

    Thought he'd get this weekend as well... be interesting to see who comes in now. Very strange this year, reckon there's more to it but probably won't find out for a long time what.

    Now to wait for the announcement. Guus Hiddink to come in until the end of the season, I suspect.

    He took training this morning!? I'm glad the news broke after Ron's prematch conference....otherwise Saints would never have got a mention.
