Can’t imagine much coming his way in the shape of bonuses

I’d liken a contract with these to be akin to some salesman’s options

Sign for a lower basic with good OTE through bonuses

Or

Go for a average basic pay

You’d have to take the latter

Only 900 gimps in attendance. Think they were kinda banking on a fair few more turning up. :) Another hammering too,lovely!

Just having a look at their league, there's no 'super team' in it this season but they're eighth in the betting behind Ashton in sixth.

Higher than I thought they'd be after last season but, fingers crossed for a relegation battle.

It will be the same nonsensical logic when we see the BBC pundits all claiming the rags will be in for a top 6 spot this coming season!

Talking of nonsensical…..
In another bout of a lack of self awareness, The Bucketeers are nominated in the “Most loved community group” award.

Looks like the mini rags are fed up of turning up & being fleeced out of £15 to watch a friendly, the attendance has been dropping and they’re yet to win a game

Bucketeers 0 - Bradford 1 (1688)
Bucketeers 2 - Salford 2 (785)
Bucketeers 0 - Rochdale 3 (1122)
Prestwich Heys 1 - Bucketeers 0
Bucketeers 1 - Exeter 4 (904)

So just over 900 turned up today, but they knew that there was over 200 travelling up from Exeter, so less than 700 rags turning out

Now, where have I seen a club crest similar to that?

It’s not as if the rags are known for stealing other clubs's ideas.

And didn’t Bradford bring 1000 fans?

A colleague who is a Bradford supporter went to the game and said the majority of the people in attendance were bantam fans!!

I’d imagine Salford brought more than a few too.

It wasn’t exactly a long journey for them.

Whatever happened to the 7,000 they brought to City in January!

They're still having therapy.

There’s a great difference between visiting Etihad and Pallet Park.

Why don't we decide which community group we want to win and throw our not so insignificant weight behind them?
That will easily wind up the pricks when they see what we are up to!

Does anyone have a relative or friend who works at any of the above or uses any of the above and we can vote for them?

 

[Mostonisblue]

They gave their first team a run out at lowly Trafford tonight & managed to lose again, 3-2. Interestingly Trafford charged £5 to get in & only a third of the price of visiting the mini swamp

Yet, Trafford FC (a team I do go and watch a couple of times a season, so not impartial) manage to keep their ahead above water ?
Also, they pay their bills and debts.
How the feck do these Splitters manage to get so much positive publicity ?
Some journalist (obviously David Conn will jot do it) needs to expose these fantasists for all their con tricks and debt...
