Most liked posts in thread: Play Off Attendance

The EFL don't have the staff to be moving everywhere, the operation is huge to do 3 games in a weekend. How do you pick a stadium when you don't know who the teams will be until 1 week before? The cameras in the Premier League are paid for by the Premier League who have a much higher budget than the EFL. It is out national stadium so right that big games like this are picked. For a lot of players this is the only chance they will get to play at Wembley. When we played Northampton the attendance was 47,000 so to fit in that crowd you have 9 stadiums, 3 of which are in London. Stadiums like this won't reservere a date on the chance their stadium might be needed as they will be getting them ready for pitch work or concerts if their season has ended.

 

I understand what you are saying Dave, but for me it's about the game and possible promotion, rather than the stadium.
Maybe we should have had the nations national stadium more central .

 

That was never going to happen.

Why would playing at Wembley not deliver your above comments ?.

 

sarcevic struggling on big pitch...1st half he had to do one short run and game got stopped as he went down as he was knackered

 

34,004

 

Morecambe have just released all out of contract players due to not having budget to offer any at moment.

Unless they are taken over they will struggle. Only 5 contracted players at the moment.

 

Spill the beans ?.

 

It looks a really tough league next season. It feels as though getting in the play-offs again would be an achievement.

 

Yeah I’d expect Morecambe to go down along with Crawley.

We are desperate for Rupp to sell to a big money man like Mike Ashley or McAntony

 

Mike Ashley certainly has the financial clout to take us forward not sure Darragh has much as Rupp, although Darragh would be far more involved on a day to day basis.

 

Not sure Newcastle fans will give him a reference

 

Yeah but Newcastle’s ambition was Champions League, ours is just to be a stable Championship club.

 

Don't think it ever happened.

 

He sponsored their shorts last season and was apparently in takeover talks this season but they never went anywhere as the current owners wanted to sell to a 20 year old property tycoon called Sarbjot Johal but that has never happened

 

My post was really about each individuals wealth and saying I'm not sure Darragh tops Stephan's wealth, yes we've heard plenty from Darragh saying if he was to look at buying another club Bradford City would certainly be on his list.
Maybe if he was not involved at Posh after doing due diligence at Valley Parade he might realise as a football club we have few assets, and although it didn't put Rupp off I'd say Darragh is a very different animal with regards owning a football club.

 

Think you need to find an owner first who has ambitions of being a stable championship club. Our current one doesn't.

 

What was the attendance today then?
