The club are getting absolute pelters for this. The way I see it we kept the local firm on to make it the cheapest kit to have made and went with the most lucrative shirt sponsorship deal in the club's history. We need every penny we can get to even attempt to be competitive this season...

Yeah, I've read a lot of that :lol: Any specific reason?

I don't think any other Brewers on here have posted this but we signed central defender Kyle McFadzean on Tuesday from MK Dons for an undisclosed fee which apparently broke our transfer record. I've read it was about £300k. It was then announced on Saturday night that we broke our transfer...

Good decision. I think the chairman said it didn't economically make sense to extend the away end so I assume we haven't sold anywhere near as many season tickets or memberships as he expected. We'll be able to initially accommodate about 2150 away supporters at the Pirelli as was proved when...

To be quite honest the only thing that's surprising about this is that no one is questioning why Faisal Islam isn't naming the MP who he took the quote from. A television journalist who is clearly pro remain/Labour (going by his clear disdain for all things Tory and Brexit during the debates he...

Nothing wrong with Burton. There's nothing of note here apart from a load of pubs, a few breweries, the only Marmite factory in the country and a football club but there's not a great deal wrong with Burton. If you live here then you think it's the biggest hole on the planet but it's only when...

You know what...I'm the same. I'm pretty steely emotionally but as soon as I heard about this my head went. It's literally all I've thought about all evening. Absolutely tragic. I'm not a big fan of politics or politicians but it does sound like she was one of a very few "good guys" that are...

Thought he'd end up in league one if I'm honest. He's been one hell of a player for us. Getting him for nothing in league two is an absolute steal. Really hope he does well for you.

I'll have you know we're a big fucking deal.

Yeah, I totally agree with this. I've lost count of the amount of times I've looked at the away end from the opposite terrace and it's looked over full and it's always worried me. Great to see a full away end and nice to help get an atmosphere going but worrying nonetheless. We've used Derby's...

I could see that happening since he played under Clough at Derby. Doesn't seem to have a lot of fans in Rotherham though if twitter is anything to go by. Sounds like the bunting came out when his name appeared on the released list :lol:

Has Greer still got enough miles left in the tank to be a first choice centre half for a couple of years or do you see him going somewhere as back up and the archetypal "good player to have around the club?" He might be a good shout for us. We'll be crying out for experienced championship...

Sorry. All my posts are like fucking essays. I'll dial it back a bit :ffs:

I get that but surely if we're talking about a financially sound deal to take over a football club then surely you wouldn't go after a club that's just dropped out of the richest league in the world? He won't have just turned up to buy Villa. He'll have been looking, poring over the details and...

League cup over JPT every time. Since we got into the FL some of our best nights have been in the league cup against bigger clubs. All our JPT games have been forgettable. To be honest thought the league cup will probably die because the rich kids don't like it. Speaking of nights if we lose...

The line from the football league about easing fixture congestion is bullshit. Certainly for the lower leagues. If anyone thinks the interests of FL clubs in the lower leagues rank anywhere in these proposals then they're deluded. The end game is PL "B" teams getting involved at the highest...

They're saying the JPT would start with a group stage with 4 teams in each group so everyone would be guaranteed 3 games. Designed to make up in some measure for the fixture shortfall.

Sky were saying Premier League B teams would be entered into the new structure but they've all of a sudden stopped mentioning it and deleted their initial tweet also mentioning it. They either fucked up or got a bit of info that they weren't meant to share and got their wrists slapped.

When you've got more money than God though surely £140m is a drop in the ocean considering what he could have made with a bit of investment, a manager he's happy with and guaranteed Premier League status next season? *disclaimer - my financial nous on this matter may explain why I'm skint and...

Why is this Xia bloke only turning up now Villa have gone down? Didn't Lerner put the club up for sale two years ago? I appreciate Xia might not have to pay as much but if you've got £27bn in the bank then I can't imagine the asking price is going to be a sticking point. Surely Villa already in...
