And Ismaël finished 5th with them, playing attacking football, with a squad of youth.

Bring him in Parish. He’s a Palace manager in waiting.

 


We're the Arthur over ere!

Do they still have hods these days? I thought they had been replaced with clever materials lifts and suchlike.

I really like the idea of the new stand being built using old school tech. Hods, plum weights, and a foreman standing well back to judge the height with one eye closed and his thumb held up.

Totally agree & not an HSE person in sight

Darn these modern ways! I still use a weight on a bit of string to make sure the wallpaper is straight!

and not forgetting the pencil stub behind one ear and a half-smoked Woodbine hanging from the corner of his mouth

It was a distractive issue and worked as such for a while.

Please refer to my signature.

Expanding on this, if we remain a stable lower half of the table team, if we expand the capacity by say 10,000 seats, do we believe there are 10,000 people chomping at the bit to shell out say 700 a season ticket . That would generate gross 7,000,000 a year, maybe the basic salary of two decent players.

I believe with the likely shift in working patterns post covid the demand for some kind of conference centre needs to be reconsidered.

The only way I can see us getting any new stadium upgrade is to be bought by a mega rich outfit and the stadium is part of an overall humongous spend.

Interested for anyone who understands the economics of this to put forward the financial case for the proposed stadium expansion.
