How are they having to sell?

Didn't think they've spent too much.

Yeah only half a billion pounds on players since the owners came in

Not much

We need to sell

Not only cos of FFP but because we have a lot of **** which needs shifting

Trippier is way past it, think he'll be gone

Hmmm just googled that one and certainly don't remember anything about it, despite it being in the media. Strikes me as odd tbph, because it said it happened in the away end, so not sure how it was possible to abuse individuals that distance from home fans. Another bit that don't add up to me is that players family have their own section, where complimentary tickets are issued and that is adjacent to the away end, in adjoining corners - I've been in that section and you certainly wouldn't get away with abusing anyone in there. I'm wondering if the abuse was actually from within the Walsall section (away section) themselves as the comments in the following article state Walsall will issue a lifetime ban once the person is found...

Edit: just looked on the saddlers forum, appears it was one of their own, who travelled down on the coaches, mad eh. Thought it was odd I didn't know about it...

I suppose this highlights the problem of authorities being careful before issuing points penalties. It happened at Gillingham, so do you issue the points deduction to Gillingham (stewarding), or to Walsall offending their own lol.

I didn't realise you'd spent that much!

Been praising the lack of spending.

Surely better for you if Lesta win or is this one of those “rather not be in the prem” posts?

Partly that but also would mean only 7 behind Leicester with them having lots of players out and us still to play them.

It's extremely unlikely but think how hilarious a Leicester bottle job would be. Who wants to get promoted as runners up? ****ing dull as ****, give me the drama of the play offs please.

Though I still expect them to win the league with a record points total realistically. Be great achievement if Ipswich joined them.

Meh. Winning this league is as good or bad as finishing second really. The trophy didn’t feel like a trophy when we won it.

Yeah it would be funny. Fosse styling out a playoff defeat to West Brom would be a historic day on not606.

Yeah the best way to go up is undoubtedly play offs but we've never won the second tier and not won any league since 1960 so would be nice to do it if we could.

Would definitely be better than finishing 2nd. We finished 2nd for both our back to back promotions and while that was great I really ain't feeling a 2nd place finish this time.
