I'd be curious to know more about the process of re-acquiring Cat 1 status. Obviously the facilities are already in place, but I'd imagine that there are certain certifications and assurances that take time to sign off, even if we're just putting back into place what existed before. |

You can get to games. You choose not to. Yet still spout forth like you actually support the club.
Disgusting. |

We'd "like" a new RB. We don't "need" a new RB. There's a difference. |

We can either decide that Sheehan was the problem, in which case the players deserve some leeway, or that the players were the problem and Sheehan shouldn't have been sacked. As Sheehan was sacked then the players earn a little time to see what Matos can do with them.
I've seen bits and bobs from basically all of them other than Benson to make me think that there's talent there. |

I'm not long term convinced on Idah, but I also think that there's a player there if the talent can be unlocked. He could go either way.
I like what I've seen in Inoussa, but the way we've played for much of the season doesn't help him. We need to get the ball forward much faster if we're going to do that.
Burgess has been so so. No worse than Cabango for the most part, but unfortunate to be on the receiving end of some shitty luck in terms of OG's which some people seem to think he's doing deliberately.
In terms of the thread in general, I make no apologies for having concerns about the suitability of certain individuals for holding positions of power within the club based on their past conduct. I'm prepared to give them a chance, but a wary one. [Post edited 23 Dec 22:44]

I'm not giving up on Key yet.
He's been here for two and a half years and for most of the that time has been a capable RB. I don't know what demons are plaguing him at the moment, but I've no interest in joining the pile on. Happy to give him time out of the firing line for now rather than rushing out to replace him. |

I may be wrong, but purchasing the stadium goes down as an infrastructure cost and is not taken into consideration for PSR purposes, so they wouldn't need "investment" to do it. They could just do it.
Ditto going back to Cat 1 status. |

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I wouldn't be all that bothered if we didn't sign anyone in January.
Most will point at RB, but we've got enough strength in depth in midfield to allow Galbraith to continue there for the moment. If the Wrexham game is any indication, he might actually have more time and space to operate in there anyway.
Maybe I'd go along with terminating Benson's loan and using it for someone else, because of all the players we brought in in the Summer he's the only one who hasn't really shown anything.
Otherwise I suspect there's more benefit in allowing Matos to work with what we've got for a while rather than instigating more upheaval. We've chopped and changed far too much in recent seasons. |

Inheritance Tax is a morally repugnant levy that should not exist at all. Plenty of civilised countries manage without it. |

Interesting to see how the narrative on the game has shifted over the last few days.
Much of the commentary at the time was about how bad we were in the first half, but more people are now commenting on how well we managed Wrexham after a slow start. They were limited, but a lot of that was down to us. |

For this reason I would not be remotely surprised if more investors come on board in a similar way. A small stake in return for "influencing" the global market.
If I was to make a suggestion, a Bollywood superstar or Indian Cricketer is where I'd be looking next. |

People who complain about the types of flags people fly at the football tend to be amongst the most bitter, narrow minded and nationalistic.
Short of an ISIS flag I couldn't give two hoots what people want to bring to the football TBH. They're all there to support the Swans at the end of the day. |

Labour seem dead set on tying us to a rotting carcass.
15-20 years ago the GDP of the EU was about 10% bigger than the US. Now it's a third smaller. The Politicos in charge are more concerned with Empire building and regulation than in economic growth, and the entire continent is stagnant as a result.
The UK has utterly wasted the opportunities offered by freeing ourselves from that malaise, largely because most of our own political class didn't want to do so. |

I used to think that Moore was basically just a skull on a stick until we played Cardiff with him up top and he actually impressed me, even though the rest of them were merde.
He wasn't up to much on Friday though. Easily Cabango's best display in weeks. |

Of all the things that have been mooted as options, restoring Cat 1 status is absolutely vital.
I can understand why it was cut in the aftermath of relegation as we were right up shit creek financially, but if current ownership are prepared to subsidise the ongoing cost (disregarded for PSR purposes I understand) then it's a no brainer to do. |

There are Conservative councils also asking to delay. They must also be told no.
The excuse being given is that the reorganisation is taking too long, but I'd wager that if you dig deep enough you'd find that most of them, if not all are currently polling as likely to tip to Reform control. That's not a good thing, but manipulation of democracy is worse. |
