I'm sure we had an orange (more yellow) strip in the mid seventies. I think I remember being in primary school and the teachers sticking on the tic in some European game- so it must have been before 4pm which seems unlikely.
sachsenring zwickau 1976?
Ujpest Doza or was that early seventies?

Huns in for James Collins.

West Ham let him go as he was a bit part player, is 35 in August and oh did I mention, he's a free agent.

Seems to be a trend setting here?

Decent bit of succession planningTimmy. Alves wont last forever

After the Skrtel embarrassment, the Daily Record is now reporting that Sevco are interested in 34-year old James Collins, now released by West Ham

:lolhuns:

In the twilight of his career. Check
Pish. Check
Free. Check

The huns signing policy rolled into one.

Had to google him to see if I knew who he was.

First line of his Wiki says he went to St Josephs Roman Catholic High School in Newport.

This is pish Celtic. Once again they've got one over us. How many players present or ex can we say went to a named 'Roman Catholic High School'.

Get it sorted Lawell

King has played a blinder here.

Sell the match day tickets in advance. Get it done before the transfer window closes as he knows what is unfolding this season.

Any drifting away or boycotts will be less of a financial hit if seats are presold.

Wee Barry and Chris Sutton have different viewpoints on ticket allocation at Ibrox.
There's only one way to sort this...FIGHT!

Rangers decision to cut Celtic's ticket allocation was justified as it will generate money for Steven Gerrard - Barry Ferguson
The Ibrox legend recognises that the derby atmosphere might change but he says it's the right thing to do.
Spoiler: click to toggle

Rangers board have put Scottish football back years with farcical Celtic ticket decision - Chris Sutton
Chris is less than impressed with the decision and thinks it will have a detrimental effect on the big games.

He's selling the match day tickets as Season books ... those are the extra 7-8k ST's that are being mentioned as raising 3m (I assume).

There's no major additional income over the course of the season. King is simply ensuring it's front loaded (assuming he sells them)

Then when the huns realise he isn't signing Messi and Ronaldo and they're stuck with the likes of Collins, unable to compete any boycotts or drifting away (they don't do walking) means any financial loss will be minimized.

He's selling the matchday tickets in advance, as season tickets. My apologises for not making it crystal clear but I assumed it was easy to understand.

Ok , got you. Seems an incredibly pointless exercise , other than keeping the lights on a little longer.

I think the big IF is IF indeed they sell these extra books, especially with the likes of Collins being their more realistic moonbeam signings.

Not really.

Money will earn interest (assuming he doesn't squander it, like normal)

Any financial hit will be minimized if the huns decide to stop attending.

Still up a creek though ...

It smacks of desperation. They have obviously been trying to think of ways in which they can bring in as much cash as early as possible.
Not altogether a bad way of doing it. However, we all know how this will play out.
Rather than saving the money and using it when required throughout the season. Perhaps demonstrating to financiers that they have cash in the bank, and lending to them would not be a bad idea.
No not this mob, they will spend it like Imelda Marcos buying shoes.
And six months down the line, when there is no additional income, and they have come no closer to catching us. Only at that point are they truly fecked.

Tickets for the Broomloan could have been sold without including games against us. So all he will get is 7500 x £50 x 2...an extra £750k. This is not about an extra £3m, it about pandering to the lowest common denominator in their support who do not want to have us still celebrating in their midden with the other three sides empty.

Another thought (assuming Pedro's burros cost anything near the amount quoted) given the player acquisition liabilities in their accounts ... the never never payments must be due for those duds soon?


Edit: I am assuming the 7m+ figure in their accounts under that heading means it's a debt for player purchases still to be settled.

Again, only IF they sell them. Are the Stevie G moonbeams that strong ?

NO: You're looking at it wrong .. even then they wouldn't get anything since we already pay the fifty quid for those seats.

They're stating they will release the match day tickets those seats are shifted to as ST books.

Less match day tickets and more season books.

Those that attend on a less regular basis will have less opportunity to get tickets.

Are their season books not capped at 42k at present? They will will rise to 49/50k
