    Yep I hate winning, much prefer days like today. Never want our club to identify ways to find a winning edge. Especially if it revolves around getting everyone in the club involved.
    Klopps ideas were implemented at Mainz and Dortmund. Turned both teams around, and made their home games more like a rock concert.

    to be fair that looks like something they would do for torture in Guantanamo bay, sitting on a little blue stool for 2 hours

    The club is in a mess from top to bottom. If they cannot be bothered to remove posters from the gents advertising Cheltenham Festival 2020 that people wanted cancelled at the start of the pandemic they won't be bothered telling the ball boys off.

    This. Little tweaks what cost nothing at all, Makes a huge difference. Getting the ball boys motivated. Making sure advertisements are all up to scratch. It's lazyness. Too many issues for me

    The manager of course.
    The west stand
    The farce with the owners council and cryne.
    And of course just the general house keeping. If we have solid staff even from the bottom it makes a huge difference.

    It's poor house keeping. The thing about the March 2020 posters is below since the last game they had stuck some distancing stickers to the walls above the urinals so whoever stuck them on will have seen the poster over a year and a half out of date and decided they couldn't be bothered to remove it. Even if they don't have another poster to swap with it, just leave the frame they come in empty.

    Imagine if they offered the job of ballboy to a few of the fans every match. Sign a waiver, bob on a flourescent and off you go. Would it be better? Probably.

    On the plus side the billingly Christmas trees ad that's been up all year is going to be relevant again soon.

    Haven't we still got perimeter boards advertising dearbe FM? A radio station that doesn't exist
