Off the field operations

This is worth a look for anyone, like me, who didn’t notice it at first.

 

Great read, thanks for posting. Although I agree with the principle of what the club are doing, it's going to be a sad day when the likes of Jobe, Rigg et al leave and I can only watch them from afar

 

Turns out it was dead easy to just make them accounts and assign tickets, I’m actually just thick and have issues every single time I order tickets maybe it’s a sign to bite the bullet and get a season ticket again, I take it all back apart from the ticket office phone line they’re still ****

 

I blame ticket-master.
I was going to suggest contacting Rachel Reeves
- apparently she's good at sorting tickets

 

She learnt from the master Starmer.

 

Another club that showed ambition, flex and didn't just settle for mediocrity ...

... fair play to them.

Reading lost more than £20m and spent more on wages than they made in income in the season they were relegated to League One, according to financial accounts submitted 12 months late.

Outgoings for wages were still more than total income, which is never going to be considered shrewd accounting.

By 4th April, Reading will need to be sold or they will be told they can't play any games while Yongge is still at the helm.

Thank Christ we have sensible owners.

 

The 4th of April is a week on f*cking Friday

If the club isn't sold they'll most likely be kicked out of the league ...

... Carlisle will have the prayer mats out.

 

That’s a sobering story. I’m of the opinion that had Donald and Methven still been in charge we would’ve been in similar if not worse situation. KLD will get us to the Premier League and he’ll do it properly.

 

I sometimes wonder about going up, crazy ko times and like some newly promoted getting the occasional hammering. Especially with our neighbours gloating, the gulf twixt prem and champ is getting bigger and bigger.

 

For me it's worth it just for the financial stability.

 

Yep that's the plus side.

 

I’m hoping we stay down.

 

Good thread.

Basically, the loan that has been mentioned recently is from Akira BV who are owned by Margarita Louis-Dreyfus so it's very much an in house financial manoeuvre.

 

I've come off twatter marra, can you copy in the link to the thread or post in full? Thanks

That work mate?

 

100%

 

For anyone who couldn't read that thread

 

Is this the fabled extension of the premier concourse for the East stand, and extend the South stand to include a massive new corporate section (so bigger bands play at the SOL)?

 

Possibly. From a non business perspective, i'm not sure i'd want to extend the ground until we consistently fill it at its current capacity
