Somebody mentioned 80% of fans using public transport......yes, good - but probably more due to the lack of car parking than any other reason!

Financially, well, we all have to realise that if TB suddenly has a change of heart and wants his money back in a hurry, we could just possibly(!) be in a bit of a financial crisis - let's keep hoping that doesn't happen!

Do you honestly think he will? Sigh

Any club that can survive what we have already been through,has the god given right to do what Palace have done twice if needed,i am not bothered,but can Palace afford to do it 3 times is my question?

If we, Palarse or any other champ team go up, then we become targets for the money people. Considering the Bloom family have been involved with our club for 70 odd ish years, if TB ever did feel like cashing in his chips (pun intended), then he would want a say in the future of our club IMO!

Well yeah, you're right.

But you'd also be right If you made the profound statement "if old Trafford suddenly blows up and man utd's owners spent all the clubs money on investing in penny-sweets , then they could be in trouble. Lets hope that doesn't happen"

It doesn't mean its logical, even If it COULD happen.

The only team in poss trouble would be your lot as they are paying wages far beyond their means which will impact when the fair play bites

If I were reading this from a CPFC viewpoint as the OP is I wouldn't be gloating over possible non existing issues for BHFC but worried about my club. If BHFC make a lose with higher average gates, higher match day income, higher commercial income and comparable wage bill, god alone knows what financial black hole CPFC are facing.

I hope he doesn't. Do you KNOW anything different? Have you got a history of reading the future? IF......yes, that is IF..... it happened, it wouldn't be good

I guess i make a judgement ...knowing something about the history of the family and i imagine how the 'debt' is structured...if he wanted his money then someone would need to come in and hand it over yes? So for me its not something i worry about too much
