    62K capacity stadium.... they'd be enticing the homeless in with a pie and a drink to get the stadium looking half full.

    I thought that post was comedy gold... then I realised they were being serious.

    Comparing with Liverpool, Tottenham, Man Utd and Liverpool.

    They really do live on a completely different planet.

    Meanwhile, in the real world, the club which shares the city have outperformed them for two decades and average bigger crowds.

    They must think United, Barnsley, Rotherham and Donny fans will ditch their clubs to watch the new even more massive Massives. Beyond bonkers….

    TBF, if the fans of both Sheffield clubs didn't keep scraping their knuckles on the floor, the city could probably support a 60K capacity stadium shared between both clubs...

    So has chansiri run out of money because I thought he was loaded with his tuna business or is he just refusing to fund the club anymore

    I like the one where he says ‘similar clubs like us’ and names, Man Utd , Liverpool, Arsenal and spurs.

    Obviously omits Chelsea and man city as they’re ‘new pretenders’ - not proper traditional huge English clubs like them and Liverpool/ Man Utd……

    Read summat today. Chansiri screwed up big style. Re possible player sales. Afore all this handing notice in etc. Also Rohl who had a price tag on his head but then went for nowt.
    That thread on owlstalk is so fekkin funny. A few common sense replies. But wow the others have gone to another level of massiveness :D:)
