Our best option right now squad wise, imho, would be to nail as good a loan signing or signings as possible. This deep into the transfer window all we’d get proper signing wise is surplus to requirements from bigger L1 sides.

RK, I think if we added £1m to the kitty and know the player is what we want and not a panic spend then it could well be the difference. Could but a really good striker for that which alongside Stockley could easily keep us up!

As an aside a friend of mine works for a firm that makes fake snow for movie productions. They’re up in Glasgow working on the Batman movie being filmed up there. They’re locals are apparently trying to get cans of Irn Bru into shot wherever possible, hiding them overnight on window sills and the like. There’s a team of production volunteers who scour the locations before every shoot trying to spot Irn Bru.

I think that’s not as uncommon a view as you suspect

Moreover, even with squad investment, it's not going to shift the relegation/stay up dial that much, so probability remains we'll be relegated

*I just hope the…

As per the By The Numbers blog I think the quote was something like “even if we do everything right it still might not be enough” so yes while we’re still fan owned the priority has to be stay financially viable (and accept with however much personal rage you wish to feel whatever division that sees us in next year and the year after).

WBM,but surely we would save all or part of that on the playing budget?

No Naz. I imagine it won’t be today.

Sorry to be naive, but has anyone received their Fulham link yet? I'd like to have mine before I go to NPL to plead iphone 5 poverty!

WBM - but will spending the Nkeng fee on the squad significantly lower the probability of relegation? I twould be a pity to end up with a high interest loan, that eventually must be paid back, and relegation. If any investors haven't already factored in a high probability of relegation this year, I will vote against them as naive.

How many did we take to Chelsea a few years ago?

There will be 4,000 people likely arriving close to kick off as it's an evening game and it will be a shitshow as everyone tries to move around to be next to their mates who were in different priority groups.

It’ll be even more difficult for the stewards if Fulham don’t even send out the tickets….

RK - Guess it depends how "real" investment is. Paying £1m of bonds as opposed to a commercial loan will cost us about £150k per year, relegation will cost £1m.

That would make it difficult for stewards to check!

Kind of hoping it’s a sit-anywhere policy on Thursday night it’ll make it so much easier for everybody.

@donsoutlook I know someone who went to Fulham v Chelsea on Monday The Ticket which went into his Google Wallet was fine at turnstile Problem it did not give his Block Row and Seat Number !

The nine benched players for Fulham last night will probably be starters Thursday. They used four subs, threw in "JJ time" plus Castagne in 23mins

In terms of where the Nkeng money goes, it depends where the DTB and Club see the priorities. Strengthen the team = better chance of staying up vs Provision for Bond repayments next year = improve probability of meeting demand for redemption.

Helluva night
