It does not give tactics away to opposition teams. Makes you wonder what he is planning. Promotion I hope 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolsterstone Owl Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Barca fee is £2m. That's £60 a ticket on a 35000 sell out, just to pay them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsyowl Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 1 hour ago, room0035 said: But a few big games at home against good teams with 20,000 turning up helps the FFP with more revenue. Didn't Bournemouth the season they got promoted play Real Madrid at home and charge something like £60 a ticket to help with the FFP - all ideas we never seem to do. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/23400938 If we had Barcelona or Bayern Munich turning up i am sure fans would pay £30- £40 to see them with 20,000+ at Hillsborough maybe even 30,000 that would bring in a few million quid in gate receipts and spend on the day. easier said than done though getting 2 of the biggest teams in Europe to a English Championship team we're playing VIllareal don't forget, more realistic & with £15 a ticket we will be looking at around 9-10k at a guess turning up, decent profit for a friendly we played Rangers last season, good crowd for that & £15 a pop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we played Barcelona at home and charge £40 for a ticket or Bristol City at home for £47 I know which I would rather see Messi, Suarez, Pique, Dembelle, Busquets OR Marlon Pack, Marley Watkins, Joe Bryan, Nathan Baker err tough one. Look it just an idea to try and help the perennial issue of FFP - £40 a head, 20-30,000 to see one of the best teams in the world would help the coffers instead we have lined up Villareal which does inspire anyone.

Sonny Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 The club doesn’t have to pay Bristol City to play them in the league though. That really helps with the margins here. Anyway we must be at least 7-1 up by now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitecap Owl Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Heard we were playing a "friendly" against recent World Cup exiters Columbia... The plan was to start the new season with most of our players in the infirmary and Columbia seemed to be the right team at the right time....
