Thinking about where the hospitality seats might go, there was some talk of a dugout area for hospitality (Chelsea do it) which could I guess mean displacing some of those in the central Lower Trinity. Hopefully not, but I guess it's a possibility.
-
The North Stand doesn't really have corners where you could put seats - it'd just be a load of restricted views.
-
It's also interesting to note that different clubs define 'matchday revenue' differently - with some including just ticket sales and others including their C&B and hospitality money, programmes and so on and (I think) some including merchandise sold on matchdays. It's not quite clear whether our matchdays revenues include just your ticket, with your pie and pint going on the commercial line.

Premier League 2 - U21 Development League 2023/2024

I know it sounds odd, but I thought we just about edged the first half with the scores at 1-1 - we had a couple of really good chances to take a lead. Then we came out in the second half and took control of the game - started to dominate, created a load of good chances that we didn't take...and conceded three goals and had a man sent off. Weird game and one they're not going to forget in a hurry - they'll be absolutely gutted to have lost this.- 553 replies

Ref has spotted something from a corner = penalty to Norwich. Saved by Emery but he got the follow up - hat trick for the Norwich striker. 4-1 down in a game we really should have won.- 553 replies

Hadn't heard about that - just reading about it - he's currently only allowed to play because he's out on appeal? Sentenced initially to a year in prison after whacking a lorry driver with a rock. Sounds a lovely character.

1-3 Norwich - long ball over the top, communication mix up between Swinkels and Emery - Swinkels heads it back to Emery who isn't there as he's come well out of his box to sweep up and the Norwich striker nudegs it home. Game over I think and the playoffs gone. They'll be gutted in this one - they really should have put it to bed.- 553 replies

Tackle in the box, possibly a penalty. The ref gave a free kick outside the box instead and sent Bogarde off. Looking very tough now to get anything out of this - which is a shame, we've been the better side.- 553 replies

Yep, I reckon if I were picking right now I'd probably go with the Premier League figure not the club's one. Which is disappointing in its own way.

I think there's an argument about how good a job he's doing, but he's hear to raise incomes and incomes are rising - I don't think you can say he's doing a bad job and he's at least doing okay and probably a little better than that. He's here to make us money, not happy.

....and so of course Norwich score. 1-2 and it's our own fault - we should have scored two or three more.- 553 replies

They had a big launch programme planned, a load of stuff on their website, and a whole lot of stuff about strengthening their own brand through the brands they've worked with - that got dragged out from under them at the last minute and they'll have done a load of work that didn't see the light of day - I'm sure they were paid for it, but you'd imagine they'd still see it as a waste of time. You're right though, I'm guessing they'd still take our pound if offered. Heck has a good relationship with a very well regarded agency (that I can't remember the name of, but they're in this thread somewhere) who designed all the 76'ers stuff with him - they'd probably be a decent pick.

It is listed as "at the start of the season". I guess if the same people give you two different answers to the same question then there's never going to be clarity. The club have said that capacity is 42,530 and the club have also said there has been an attendance of 42,789. For what it's worth, I suspect capacity flexes slightly based on all sort of things and that someone went out of their way to make sure the City game was recorded as one more than the next highest attendance for reasons that weren't based on counting tickets sold.

It's the 'from the clubs' bit that we can't rely on.

I suspect Dragon Rouge will never want to work with us again! It'd be interesting to know who has worked on the new iteration of the old badge or whether we've done it in-house.

That would depend on who you ask for the capacity I'd guess -whether you configure your hospitality rooms for comfort, luxury or the fire limit for example will have a say, whether you're counting Emi's family in a box and so on. Lerner would often report 42,788 as capacity, even though there was a suggestion that the figure might not be an absolute - the whole thing is unnecessarily murky. In theory you should be able to jettison the figures from the papers and the websites and the Beeb and just go with what the club and league are declaring - except in our case of course, where those are different things. I'm quite happy with any number, but it'd be nice if we only had one. I wonder if it's the same at other clubs.

Wilson had laid one on a plate for Young a moment earlier and he'd missed. Glad they got it the right way around at the second attempt and another one for MacGoals.- 553 replies

I'm not sure about selling him - with the uncertainty over Mings and with Lenglet only being on loan, selling Carlos could need us looking at having to buy two or three centre halves in the summer and with Konsa a more than occasional right back I think it would be too big a risk.

In fairness, the round badge design didn't bomb - it was very popular right from the off - just not in all the right places.
