    This demonstrates that clubs such as Bolton and indeed ourselves should endeavour to record a profit when in the Prem to store surplus should relegation occur. But we never do...

    It really shouldn't be that difficult. If we have a squad of 25 and pay nobody over 20k a week meaning total staff costs of around 30m it must be possible.

    No, please do not try to make a word that is both singular and plural extra plural by putting an s on the end. Next thing you will be saying moneys.

    No, it's because maths is short for mathematics. How many times did you study mathematic at school?

    If Americans want their own language then invent one. Thats fine by us. But all the while they speak English then get it right by OUR rules.

    Well according to the net Math was used in england in the 1800's until some time around 1911 that you all started calling it Maths.

    Anyway, we got more english speakers in California than you got in England so we win. MATH!!

    Surely it's neither a singular or plural? You don't have different quantities of maths (or math) do you?

    Why so everyone can say "like" every other word? The last thing you want is Californians dictating anything. Can you imagine everyone talking like the movie Clueless? Its hard enough to deal with in person. We use math, mathmatics isnt plural its a mass noun that just happens to end in S so you dont have to shorten it to Maths to make it plural. They only thing worse for someone like me with a southern accent (the southern accent is considered uneducated) would be for me to start saying things like Maths.
