I stumbled across this: www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47691385Some insight into just how much it costs to run a club in the championship. The lowest operating loss, over the season, of a club that didn’t get relegated, is Millwall at 3.8 million. It’s also true to say every one of those clubs has better training facilities than us, and likely has higher turn over, so the theoretical minimum loss for us would be 3.8 million plus the cost of proper facilities/infrastructure to be able to compete at that level. There is no way in hell Rupp will fund that because: - he doesn’t give a shit - he doesn’t have a clue what he’s doing - he did nothing but moan about a measly 2 million loss this season So even if miracles do happen (they don’t), and we bounce straight back (we won’t), and then perform a further act of wonder by carrying that momentum into another promotion (definitely won’t), we will certainly generate a huge loss in the process, and likely suffer relegation. That’s reality folks. Short of a sheikh willing to fund losses well into the millions, season after season, we’ll never be a championship club. Prove me wrong (pro tip: you can’t).

I can't believe that statement had such a long explanation.

It's the reality of modern day football. It's why i wasn't against Rahic's model in theory. A sophisticated system where we can regulary churn out youngsters who we can sell on would have gone some way towards reducing the gap. The execution of his philosophy though was dire. On the off chance we actually get into the Championship we'll have to bank on doing a Huddersfield.

It's why I'm now a Sheffield United fan. Instant success.
Enjoy L2.

I’m delighted to announce Just Eat.com will become our new training kit sponsor. As part of the deal, just eat will supply meals to our first team squad during training.

But rather than invest actual money into youth development the idea was just sign any old cast off because game time meant success. In that regard we're no better off than we were 10 years ago. But the school dinners are nice I hear.

We won’t ever be a championship club because we’re shit.
If we ever stumble across a few players who’re actually decent, they’ll be sold before we get anywhere near.
Imagine we smash it next season - we find a gem of a striker who bangs in 25 goals.... well that cunt will be off before we even kick off again in league one.

The fucking state of this
It looks like something your Sunday league side would churn out to promote the function room - grammatically incorrect and visually stinks of someone using MS Paint to put it together.
Not that you'd want them - bus as said the communication for this has been dire.
It's just a Twitter graphic but it's part of the bigger picture. And that bigger picture is a pile of shit.

My first serve is eminently returnable, I might as well stay at home.

Small things like this just highlights how unprofessional and sloppy the club is. My personal irritation is how the lines are fucked on the pitch. Their either bent or barely painted on, I can't even fucking see the box at the Bradford End. That and the nets aren't put up properly and look a right mess. As you say, it's these things that represent the bigger picture of shite.
