The main reason I renewed my season ticket in the Stanno last summer, was to ensure we got "good" seats. That's one of the key selling points to fans, surely!

It’s clearly structured to generate as much revenue from away fans as possible, given it’s £5 to become a member and a £5 saving per ticket. Bending the rules on equal pricing, at best.

I'd add Lincoln and Wigan to the games we'd have won with a quality striker, but of course its merely hypothetical. Muskwe and Scott, can only react to what's happening on the pitch. They have very limited understanding of how to create space or the runs to make to receive the ball, so they...

Nombe scored 8 in the L2 promotion year under MT. He then scored 15 in L1 last year (9 of which were under GC, and mainly without Jevani Brown to create chances). This season he played in 5 games for us. He didn't score, but we won 3 and drew 1. I think we all know a quality striker would...

And just to follow on from my own post, I think I'm right in saying that of the 18 points we currently have, only 3 points were picked up against teams currently in the top half, versus 15 points against teams in the bottom half.

I do agree there is some dross in the league. I'd add Port Vale to your list and probably Lincoln, who we really should have beaten. Then there are several teams who to me look quality. Bolton, Pompey and Oxford will battle it our for the autos, while Barnsley, Derby, Peterborough along with...

So Barnsley charge their own fans different prices depending on with they are STH / members?

Port Vale next, who are joint bottom of the form table, with us!

You are assuming that Cambridge will now go on to have a successful season. Changing the manager has loads of associated risk, and probably reduces the money available to improve the team.

The point is that attendances are up across many clubs, so relatively our budget is still one of the smaller ones.

Attendances change over time and dependent upon which clubs are in the division. In 13/14 an average attendance of 6,000 would put you in the middle of the attendance table. This season, you'd be in the bottom quarter.

i don’t think anyone would have paid a fee for Jack last summer, so cashing-in wasn’t on the cards. By next summer he’d have been over 24 and we’d be entitled to nothing if he left at the end of his contract. Given Demi was viewed as a significant upgrade it was clearly felt that Jack’s wages...

I’m not sure splitting the windfall income three ways is still a thing. The final third was never transfer fees, rather it was injected into the playing budget (over more than one year). The bottom line is that our playing budget has been supplemented by transfer income for quite a few years...

Thanks. There’s some very good acquisitions there, a couple who are decent enough and a couple of duds.

I’d rather draw 0-0 than lose 5-2.

£2.2m on the training ground as a starter. Investment in the pitch and the scoreboard as well. And then a big chunk of money that boosts the playing budget each year (£900k last year). The planned over spend for the next couple of budgets is already baked in based on guaranteed future income...

We signed Demi Mitchell and Niskanen from Scottish clubs. Both quality signings IMO. Who else are you referring to?

Only if we offer that player a contract of higher value than his previous one, are we entitled to compensation if he leaves.

I may be getting my timelines muddled, but Caprice was the back-up before he bu99ered off to Burton.

Bolton are averaging 21k+ crowds, have a turnover that is is over three times higher than ours, and a playing budget that (probably) dwarfs ours. It should be a procession for Bolton. I do wonder whether topping the league at the start of the season has genuinely changed supporters expectations...
