Just a quick question.
How do the loan repayments compare with the rent we were paying prior to 2019?

Coco, what are you asking him for?

He makes it up as he goes along, he has no more idea than the rest us, probably less.

I don’t know that will be sensitive information, not even Vastman will know. I ask you what happened to the money saved on the rent once we purchased the ground.

So what’s the answer then?
We haven’t a sugar daddy and not likely to get one.
We haven’t the funds to sustain a competitive SL team.
IF we stay up get ready for more of the same for next season.
I’m sick of punching above our weight!

Salford had a sugar daddy, Koukash, and got nowhere, they are doing better now and have reached 2 finals recently. According to Rowley, they have the lowest spend on the cap, but i don't know if that's true. How are Warrington and Hull getting on with their resources??! We finished 5th twice in 2017 & 2018 with basically players no-one else wanted, so 'success' can be achieved relatively speaking. Money is only part of it, Have it and waste it, then there's no point having it in the first place.

It is not a pointless question because I believe you are all living in an alternative reality. I know why you have because you need the patronage, I don’t but having gone through the last period seeing our better players being snapped up due to the fact we didn’t have the funds. I don’t see this being any different this time so how do you believe we will be competitive and how many supporters during a time of tight finances will want to spend their money. When we are out of SL it won’t be a one season return without investment especially when we start paying the ground loan back.
What really annoys me is that we shouldn’t be in this position but if you ignore the signs over several seasons and continue to one plan the threat of relegation was inevitable once a reasonable team is promoted.

That's nothing to do with what he said. He just said the promotion season was one of his favourites. It doesn't mean everything else is rubbish.
If you support Trinity you support them through good times and bad. Some just seem to look at the score and if it isn't a win then everything is bad.
Honestly, you are supporting the wrong club if that is the only reason to come. Its a big thing, but not the only thing.

What a strange bunch, looking forward to relegation, fed up of punching above our weight, opertunity to rebuild, found our own level.

No wonder Carter gets an easy ride.

It's all moot anyway.
We'll win tonight which will carry us on to escape relegation one more time

I much prefer my world to yours Scar.

You really are arrogant at times. So you don't think that most fans are not fully aware of the issues at stake, only you the great oracle knows. Se are not worthy.

I did enjoy 1998 or are you going to revise history as usual and take that one away from us all.

We should be able to compete in the Championship in terms of winning a fair few games and generally having more fun as speccies (won't bother you and your fantasy season ticket), doesn't mean we will be the best or win it but it will probably be our level for a while.

Then when you invest your millions and take over the full running of the club we can return triumphant to SL

You are really taking your patronage quite seriously and backing the board. I note you didn’t say you enjoyed the seasons before 1998. I see the usual when you take over the club which was a £1 but is now £1m which I guess is inflation however who would want to invest in a club that is currently an embarrassment both on and off the field.
I would correct you again with your persistent misinformation that I do not have a season ticket, I may not use it but I do have one. I won’t expect an apology it’s not what you do unless you are told to do so by those that control you.
I am not arrogant just a realist which for reasons above you cannot be. I believe that some things as loan repayments are part of a confidential agreement so please tell me how anyone other than your controllers at the club will know, it’s how businesses work.

Well we all know one contributor to the site who will always be found to surprisingly back whatever those on the board do, it’s as if he under their control.

I hope we actually win tonight because it will be a game I can save rather than delete and we need it.
