Whichever league we end up in, 1 or 2, it'll give the club a chance to finally cut its cloth to suit. It'll only be free signings and stuff anyway. And Morris will be left with an enormous white elephant that he owes £20M on. Oldben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even in League 2 we would get 15,000 plus, a non starter for me when we will need to be generating as much income as we can through ticket sales… angieram, twinkletoes, Carnero and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaffyRam Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 I wonder whether the parasite at Wycombe is still holding things up. I don’t think we’ve ever had confirmation it’s been resolved, have we. Apologies if I missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eatonram Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Why on earth would people want us to ground share? We would lose supporters in there thousands and still be paying a hefty rent.

What would be better, 8,000 at PPS with half the stadium closed or 5k at Burton standing on the terraces for a few seasons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How’s that? What else would it be used for? A boxing match every decade or a couple of concerts every summer wouldn’t pay for the upkeep, he’d be desperate to give it back.
