Piece of piss for us to do the double over wobbling Stags!

Easy 3 points for us now the bottling has begun!

We actually made a profit - albeit a small one £48k. But, for me, a huge % of our admin costs needs to be broken down to show what’s spent on what.

Our accounts have just been published- no doubt Maguire will put them up on X. Someone explain how a business with a T/O of £6m can have admin costs of £3.6m.

73 Harrogate at the CG.

Early Bird ST prices announced today - £290, £20 less than this season.

I think Bradford will sneak 7th

£4m? Jesus! Presume that’s for the entire club not just playing staff.

Makes you wonder how we can have an income of £7-8m, no rent, restrictive playing budget and still get told we’re operating at a loss. Accounts should be out in a day or 2 - which I doubt. Apparently we’re using Fair Game who are supposed to give a sustainability rating to clubs. We’re the...

Now our mid table surge is in full swing we entertain Harrogate who seem to have been demoralised by the Stags. Hoping for a win and 7 points from 9 this week would be welcome.

You said you declare how many people turn up, not on how many tickets you sell. There’s he anomaly.

Seems straightforward to me. If the income doesn’t tally with whatever attendance is declared must, by definition, be incorrect.

Whichever way you do it the accounts must be wrong. How do you explain the income from 8000 tickets sold when your official attendance is 7000. It just doesn’t tally.

Because you said so.

I’m not pointing the finger at Grimsby, but when someone says their club accounts by numbers attending rather than tickets sold there’s a huge anomaly. It makes no difference if people have bought a ticket but don’t bother turning up - the club have their income.

Surely tickets sold = income. If youve Sold 6000 tickets @£20 that’s £120,000 in income. If you only declare 5000 in attendance then there is £20,000 unaccounted for.

You’re fiddling your income then. Just like every club did when we paid cash at the turnstiles.

See Kevin Maguire is linking lower league clubs artificially increasing attendances and money laundering.

Nah, it’s real. Lowest of the season, though.

Second half we were pretty good - albeit Tranmere were embarrassingly poor and you’re right, that left back was a disaster. Not all sunshine though. I’m at Centre Parcs with the grandson who has just thrown up all over his bed and bedroom floor - didn’t even have any Guinness in him!
