And we know he wasn't betting in other areas - how? A psychiatrist who interviewed him for the independent commission that set the punishment concluded he was an addict. What reason did he have to bet? Surely not because he needed the money - addiction seems the obvious answer. He...

I just hope he is getting help with his gambling addiction - not sure that further punishment would be helpful with that. I've seen what happens when someone gets addicted to gambling, to them and their family - not very pretty.

If the North gets those we want recliners in the East

Maybe I'm missing something but I'm struggling to see what safe standing would add. From the East Stand it appears that virtually the whole of the North stand during the game at the moment. If there were a Safe Standing area wouldn't there be a tendancy to insist that those not in this area...

Not looking forward to tonight - another in the region of -6° c 2nd winter living in the shed - yesterday morning just 8° inside and water pipes frozen.

https://www.premierleague.com/news/3858986 A Club will be in breach of the PSRs if its PSR Calculation over the relevant period results in a loss in excess of £105 million (with that threshold reduced by £22million for each season that the relevant Club has been in the Championship during the...

That's is as maybe in the case of Forest, I don't know what their FFP financial figures were. I was simply making the point that the P&S rules for promoted clubs favours the established PL clubs. The P&S rule assumes that a promoted club has made a loss of £44m in the two years prior to...

Indeed but seems a little unfair to promoted teams. In the Championship the permitted loss is £39m over a 3 year period, (average of £13m/annum). The PL rules for P&S assume however a newly promoted club has lost £22m a year for each of the first two of a three year period. Considering a...

It certainly does - used it for years. It can be a good two or three weeks before you see anything happening but it totally kills anything it is sprayed on in my experience. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0857GJ68T?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

Sorry if fixtures but haven't seen mentioned the fact that the P&S rules for Forest for the 22/23 period, in terms of allowable losses, is different than that for the teams that had been in the PL for three years.

Make that £38.9m in 2916/17 and £25m in 2015/16

That's precisely why the high revenue clubs have historically shown support for P&S rules. Stops the smaller clubs from threatening their position in the league. I doubt either of the Manchester clubs nor Liverpool, (clubs with 3 x the revenue of Brighton), will be voting for it's removal any...

I'm not really - it's more an interest in the practicality of how to implement an equitable loyalty scheme for all from a club perspective. From a fan perspective, points are "earned", (a better word may be accrued), by individuals. The club appears to link loyalty points to an account, (ST...

How does the club know who is going to be using the corporate ticket at the beginning of the season? It may be one individual or numerous different people

But if those points can't be used when buying an away ticket and/or can't have the points for the away game added to the tickets total then they are effectively useless. That would put the director in my example who uses one of the 1901 tickets to go to most home games at a serious disadvantage...

That doesn't answer the question - who gets the season ticket points? Each ticket in my example could potentially give someone up to 200 points at the beginning of the season - the club can't allocate them to a user if they are corporate ones, so who gets the points? If they are credited to...

That's fine for the away game points but who gets the ST points?

I don't see how the club can remove this "loophole" without putting the holder of a corporate ticket at a disadvantage compared to an ordinary STH and allocate ST points retrospectively. Some have suggested that points be awarded to whoever is passed an away ticket but ignored the problem of...

As I posted earlier, this perk is an additional encouragement, to pay a premium and commit to a 5 year contract for those seats, that doesn't actually cost the club a penny to include.

Don't you see that this is the perfect reward scheme looked at from the club's perspective. It adds a perceived value to a corporate ticket without costing the club anything.
