    I'm regretting not going down to Hove now. The Memsahib decided that we would watch England ladies v New Zealand instead. 

    Cracking weather too Eddie.

    Madsen just caught on the boundary off an awful delivery, (first over with the new ball), 111, Nelson strikes again

    Why would they do it if they weren't going to get paid? 

    And if a company is big enough to have millions of debts then probably justifies the high rates. Now, if you're asking if £500 ph for a pleb who can count beans is fair, that's a different question! ?

    In my experience, their bill is always the amount left-over (less 5p) after the preferential creditors have been paid. I've been on the wrong-end too many times so have been party to all the paperwork involved.

    Incredible that we've sold out at £37 + £2 booking fee.

    I just hope other clubs don't take advantage of our blind faith and fleece us knowing that we will sell out. Really want to go to Coventry in October - hope this one isn't £37

     

    Your gas bill is going to go up by more than £37 a week. Might as well spend it on the train fare and stay warm in the pub before (and after) the game. Saving money and the planet.

    Yes i know what you mean,it's always the little man that finishes up on the wrong end of the pile,personally i think Joe Bloggs etc have already been impacted by the clubs situation. If we can't pay HMRC i doubt the small businesses have seen any money either.

    Exactly, the RoadRider bus being the most obvious example.

    I've no doubt that some suppliers will have unpaid invoices going back 6 or even 12 months, I've been there myself.

    If business X had been run correctly in the First place there would be no need for administrators to be brought in.

    What I'm trying to say, is despite the business not being able to pay their debts, there's always a few grand down the back of the sofa for the administrators invoice, while Joe Bloggs the local plumber gets bugger-all.

    Graeme Shinnie made the 72's Team of the Week (as did ex Rams Keogh and Weimann):

    Football is about mixing the right ingredients to make the best team, even if that doesn't always mean the best individual players. I do think Shinnie's contribution is often overlooked (something I've been guilty of). Right now we need fighters and he's one of those.

    Roos must have come close too?
