Not a bed of roses it seems

Its going to remain honking for the rest of the season for the entire bottom 4 (maybe 5 if Everton had a 1 game bounce).  Its still there to play for, as mad as it sounds.

Arsenal have got in his ear apparently that's why his new contract is stalling 

[Guest Bilo]

In fairness, if Cunha is downing tools to force a move then Wolves are probably ****ed.

[Nalis]

Chelsea v Wolves was the most 3-1 fixture of the season on paper, should have put a bet on 

[Mickyblueeyes]

Yes! 
 

And also, unbelievable 1 point from safety STILL! 

[Corky]

Three points behind Arsenal. Will take that.

They'll secure a classy replacement whilst we are finalising Harrison Reed on deadline day

That would involve playing football in a coherent manner, we don't engage in such activity.

 

Unless we bring in at least 3 quality players, there is no way on earth we stay up. We are beyond awful.

Keen is full of shit. Plenty of fans have responded saying he applauded the fans. Cunha has even replied to that tweet calling him a liar too.

Surely Brentford aren’t likely to sell Wissa to Forest unless for some reason the player wants to leave which seems unlikely ?

Club loyalty is dead. Wasn't that long ago that ground opened and Brighton were averaging 10,000 less than they do now. Now if you miss 5 games without selling on you can't auto renew your season ticket  Jokers.

Person who works for the star *not a journalist* is full of sh it. What a shocker.

If they do start making big money signings like this, it would suggest that they're about to do what we did and move away from their model.

fully expect that to be in place here shortly given the "why didn't you turn up" emails I get for midweek games

In that case, automatic refunds should be given to STH that can't attend due to the match moving to accommodate broadcasters. If we have more than 5 matches moved to midweek then I'll lose my ticket. Perhaps not a bad thing but they will need to be aware they won't get me back when times are hard.

should be but they'll say "oh we've got a resale platform" and make it your fault for not attending/giving them the ticket back for a partial refund and for them to sell on for even more.

If they get a good offer I imagine they will do. Buy cheap, sell for profit. Reinvest. Keep the cycle going.

They're hailed for their on-pitch success, in fairness. Their owner is an extremely successful businessman, investor and gambler, he knows how to make money. No Premier League football club is ever going to be particularly great for it's fans.

 

Brighton especially are going to find themselves in a situation much like we are where they need to generate as much match day revenue as is physically possible in order to be able to spend as much as possible on the squad to close the gap.

 

This is maybe the biggest problem of all with FFP and PSR and one thing that doesn't get spoken about nearly enough, it's massively anti-fan. Football clubs outside of the Big Six need to squeeze every single penny they can out of the fans that they have to pump up the income to try and compete.

 

Fortunately for Bloom, the demographic of his fanbase is a lot more affluent than most in the country outside London so he'll probably be able to push it quite far.
