I'm not a fan of EDB (yet). Nice lad great attitude, but he's a bit jack of all trades / master of none isn't he? I felt he run on adrenaline a bit when he made his debut and got that small run of games last season. I don't think his baseline is anything more than what we saw last night.
Haven't given up on him though. Hope he proves me very wrong.
Brian is of course, utterly right, but the club will never take this seriously while the prize money for winning the third round is less than finishing 21st in the Championship.
Well, the status quo is, Man City currently outspending us by about 1100%
Going by attendance alone, the rules I’m proposing would mean they could only outspend us by about 300% (based on average attendance).
I don’t begrudge clubs with bigger gates that sell more shirts outspending us to be honest as it’s a football related income.
Clubs should be rewarded for garnering more supporters or producing the most footballers, not the biggest personal wealth reserves or access to sponsorship.
Dare I say it Bri, a lot of clubs did what Man City are doing now. Clough’s Forest teams and Blackburn in the 90s spring to mind.
Let’s take our QPR hats off a minute, if Gregory pulled those stunts today for another club we’d have something to say.
I won’t go into that Warnock side that won promotion for us either!
I can accept a club with 3 times our gates and 10 times our merchandise income outspending us. I can’t except a wealthy gulf state or indidvudual taking over a club just because that happens to be what he saw out the window of his/her helicopter.
