On this occasion I'm not sure all those people were standing out of choice, I had some issues with transport on the way and arrived just on kick off, by this time the stairs were wedged full and there was no chance of getting to my seat until half time. No help at all from the stewards and not very safe all round
Agree totally about the substanced up yoofs shouting at the opposition fans and not watching the game, really quite annoying , much of it seemed to be in my left ear, doubt the intended targets could even hear it.
Rather than just throw money into the transfer pot our American owners have invested in the infrastructure of the club and have already doubled our revenue, and that together with money from player sales (we are still getting money from the Jude Bellingham sale) has enabled us to spend those obscene amounts of money recruiting players.
Also they've taken advantage of the fact that unlike the Championship, in this division the FFP rules don't include spending on transfers (incredibly), so they've tried to sign 'Championship ready' players while they have the opportunity to do so.
TBH I am somewhat embarrassed by it, but after 13 years of perpetual struggle I'll take it 😃. And even with all that money, it doesn't guarantee success, as some bigger than us clubs have found in the past. Despite our success this season Chris Davies hasn't won a single manager of the month award, and rightly so given the huge advantage he has, but that's not to say he hasn't done a great job, because he could quite easily have f*cked it up!

It was a lovely day for a walk wasn't it. If you are relatively fit..use your legs!

All the best 👍️
Great post @BobtheBlue 👍👍
You were lucky, they wouldn't let us on - only for BCFC fans apparently.
