So basically the only confirmation they have they can operate normally is because Steve tells Gregg he assumes that is the case because there's an influx of transfer money coming. Nothing at all about owners sending a normal budget PLUS transfer income topping it up ? Because that is the only way we can operate normally AND put money into the four areas GB is recommending.

*Sky have invested in increased player and agent incomes for the long term.

He has only featured for Oldham 3 times since signing, and not at all for the past month. Don't know if its fitness/injury related or that his loan has not worked out https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ethan-walker/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/640893/plus/0?saison=2023&verein=1078&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id= Bloxham's loan at Harrogate hasn't gone much better https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tom-bloxham/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/907216/wettbewerb/GB4/saison/2023

What has happened with Ethan Walker. He wasn't even on Oldhams bench tonight ?

celtic interested in sammie,better off up there than playing for bloody luton,where he`ll most likely end up back in the championship,bang on with his replacement,either be a loan or a bargain basement purchase from god knows where

Probably so in past, currently deffo not. Sky offered a vast variety of different types of programs and sporting events plus loads and loads of different types of movies. Personally I think it deffo worth of the money given the amount of quality sport they coverage whether its PL, EFL, F1, cricket, golf, plus the range of movies and Tv shows they have. Sky have invested in EFL and its competitions for the long term

Of course filling it with home fans is the ideal scenario, but, we ain't getting anything close to 23k home fans any time soon REGARDLESS. The only time that's even a possibility is if we ever got promoted now, the closest otherwise is lucrative Cup games. No way on this planet would we sell 23k home tickets vs Sheff Weds in current circumstances. Even Waggott himself would prefer to fill the ground with home fans, lower policing costs etc, him and the other cronies involved are too simple to think of anything remotely viable to help though with that.

It's absolutely embarrassing seeing comments out there from some of our so called fans. The only thing plastic about them is their brain cells.

I have to say I am not that fussed with the removal of replays to be honest, but the 5 sub rule is a disgrace.

I can see why they are called Sheffield Wednesday. I have been worrying about this game since Wednesday. 😉

I agree with K Hod. Szmodics will be sold to a Luton or Norwich kind of team and we'll sign the current versions of Chris and Wes Brown. The plan is to always downgrade the club.

With the cost of Sky, it’s absolutely no wonder so many people are sourcing games illegally. It definitely won’t get any cheaper either, with the new TV deal.

My prediction (and I’d love to be wrong, of course)- we’ll sell Szmodics and won’t buy anyone anywhere near the same quality, or enough in the areas that we need.

Has this happened yet? Or do you not have a printer?! 😉

It's time we started making the team and fans suffer again in order to help our billionaire owners who've fecked up their own finances. Oh and whilst we are at it helping a fat pig snout go deeper in the bonus trough. Meanwhile back in the championship twelve thousand cheap season ticket bubbles were heard popping over Preston way the other night, lovely stuff.

Aye true ...didn't stop near us tho haha

Premier league time again ... Great night's entertainment

@chaddyrovers

Well predicted! Starts April 2025. Ridiculously, it seems even EVs that are only two years old will have to pay the standard rate (£190). Not the best way to encourage further EV adoption. Think they should have put it off a bit longer, or at least made it far cheaper. Weirdly though, 'Zero and low emission cars first registered between 1 March 2001 and 30 March 2017 currently in Band A will move to the Band B rate, currently £20 a year'. Bizarre for it to be considerably cheaper tax than a nearly new EV, I guess the thinking is that drivers of EVs that age will be poorer, but somehow the same courtesy isn't given to me for driving my old Peugeot from 2008!

2 0 rovers.

Those are awful numbers, I wouldn't get the electric one either. Honestly, the minivans etc haven't developed to the numbers 'normal' EVs can do yet, due to the weights they carry. That said, the Tesla semi trucks look to have impressive numbers pulling far greater weights. The ridiculous-looking cybertruck can shift too. Toyota haven't really committed to EVs properly yet tbh, despite some good hybrids. There are definitely minivan EVs with much better range than that though, if you're not so partial to the brand you won't shift. In fact I just did a lil google for you and got this list: https://www.fleetalliance.co.uk/business-ev/the-10-electric-vans-with-the-best-range/ Which happens to mention a Toyota Proace Electric that has a 205 mile range (looking at their website, sounds like that drops to 177 miles if you're driving like a maniac in bad weather). Think you were looking at the 50kw battery rather than the 75kw battery. Looks like it has the same crappy top speed though. Personally, I'd probably keep your existing vehicle for another 3 years or so and then re-evaluate what's on the market as I bet EV minivans will have improved markedly by then.

I don’t blame anybody but the owners.

You can't blame Broughton for the last bit Matty. The bloke probably knows that at any point the rug can be pulled. He's at risk of sounding stupid...twice He has an impossible job to be honest. Since GB has come we have come close to landing two very good signings. For whatever reason they haven't been allowed to be finalised. I know some blame Broughton but I certainly don't. We were never close to signings like Lewis OBrien or McGuire before him. Perhaps that is because nobody was trying that hard. Yet now they have a person who seems to be actually trying to 'push the boat out' we are seeing incompetence that is suspicious at best

Wow those are long journeys! Am I right in remembering you live in Australia? Full EVs definitely won't meet the case needs of everyone just yet. Although you won't need three hours to recharge a good, modern EV. A Model S for example can charge up to 200 miles in 15 minutes at a supercharger, which you could easily fill with a piss and grabbing a bite to eat. And you could have up to 394 miles to begin with on a full starting charge. It still does mean more recharging time than you'd spend with a petrol or diesel car, but nowhere near the times you're thinking. Of course, the issues then come in two forms: affordability for normal people, who mostly can't come close to affording a brand new Tesla (some very good options on the used market though, with more battery life left than you'd think, but still generally far in excess of many can afford for now - that said, I saw a video where a guy got about 260 miles out of a Tesla he bought for less than £9k, haggled down from £13k, and it had done 450k miles in its life!). And the supercharger network. I've no idea what that's like in somewhere like Australia, with colossal distances between cities, but I bet it's not always great. A normal charger might take you hours, and I agree that's just not practical. The supercharger networks are only going to improve though, and hopefully within a few years you'll be in a position to change your mind. Personally, with everything I've seen about the technological advancements, I'm predicting there'll be commercially available EVs with 1,000 miles of range by the end of 2030. It'll be interesting to come back to this comment in 6 years to see if I was right! Honestly I think it could be as early as 2028.
