    Why doesn't he just sell Hillsborough to himself again.

    That should sort it.

    We're no better. In the same predicament but without spending any money. Chicken and Egg. Can't work out whose dafter. Them for trying to achieve something or us for sleep walking into it.

    We're definitely not losing £500,000 a week.

    Quote from Sheffield Star...

    'Once again the main funding for the club was the further instalments from the sale of Hillsborough, with £15,000,000 coming in from that, but the total losses now sit at £124,397,000 - up from £98,617,000 last year.'

    I suppose he could put the taxi fares up or increase season tickets from 6 to 8 hundred pounds.

    Mate of mine been a season ticket holder there with his Mrs for years. They owe money from the 1st season when the pandemic hit, and for all of last season. They still expected him to pay for this seasons, needless to say he no longer goes

    Think our financial situation will be looking perilous now we’ve been relegated regardless of player sales.

    None of this of any interest to Owls fans who are currently only interested in a “who sold more tickets” debate with Sunderland fans. Best one i have heard is even though Sunderland have had crowds of 41 k several times in League One, the won’t be able to clear 50k or whatever the allocation is at Wembley, whilst Wednesday could fill it themselves ...

    Sunderland’s forum has over 2,000 replies in the “Attendance for the Play off Semi Final” Thread.
    Out-massived the “Massives” there!

    Promotion followed by points deductions and relegation rinse and repeat. Look like they'll avoid administration, they have done so far despite always carrying way more debt than Barnsley ever have.
