Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

I'm surprised they pay anything at all, afterall a club that can march into the referee's room at half time to demand to know from the ref what they can do to reduce the penalty count against them.
Next they will be kicking try scorers gauging eyes and sticking up two fingers on national tv. |

my mate told me about the figures regarding the rent for the stadia, he is usually quite good with his info..
anyway feel free to pick holes out of the following maths, but if we are optamistic for a change and say we can fill the corporate seats for every game and get gates of around 8k at 20 quid a ticket we should be comming away with a nice little proffit.
corporate holds 750@ 75 per head = 56250 x 14 = 787500
8k crowd x 20 = 160000 x 14 = 2240000
add them together (my calculator is in meltdown) = 3027500 then minus costs......

Just drove past on my way home and they have erected one floodlight in the corner, It looks like they have taken it from the Willows.

Just passed the stadium and realised that seating stand is quite shallow, is there any other stadium with stands like this. ? I’m just concerned that I won’t be able to achieve the same view I currently have where I stand in the shed ?

You'll get a cracking view from there. It's the ends you've got be concerned about. |

| I stand just before the barriers at the back of the shed, what row(meaning A-Z) would suit me at the new ground, this info would be helpful because the sooner I now the quicker I can put my name down for season tickets.  |

I think we are seeing accelerated construction on our stadium, as Buckingham have just picked up the contract for Etihad Campus works, after impressing with other smaller contracts at Eastlands. Still, it looks more impressive each time I see it, and driving past yesterday saw some fellas in a cherry picker installing something on the underside edge of the Main Stand roof, possibly PA or floodlights.
Strangely looking forward to our last game at The Willows. It feels like the end of an old, fairly unsuccessful era and the dawn of a new one where anything is possible. We've all got to believe that this is our time and get a buzz around the club. Can't wait to move into our new home.
