    And recruiting a whole new team in the summer may be beyond us. What happened to the gradual approach.

    We should campaign for a rule change so we can play 11. Flog Oakwell and loan Shaw Lane to play on (saves money) and start and initiative where a random member of the crowd gets to be manager.

    If I remember correctly, wasn't there an offer several decades ago where fans could pay to sit in the dugout during matches? Possibly in Allan Clarke's time. Maybe we should re-introduce that.

    JWLBigLil will know. I wonder if they got to advise on tactics and substitutions, or whether they just sat at the back and got laughed at?

    Yes it was a 100 quid. I think you just got to lurk in a sheepskin coat.

    Problem with those was that none of them signed perm, other than Aidy White who is still with the club - yet a loanee started in front of him on Saturday.

    We've had good loans and bad loans, but surely we have perm targets on our 'radar' too?

    It was during the 1985/86 season, when money was extremely tight with gates around 5,000.

    Did you partake in the scheme?

    They should bring that back, but this time we can have a go at sitting in the Chief Exec's chair. I bet that's fun.

    Think I saw him play once against Southend and he looked distinctly average but then the whole team had an off day in that match.

    Does to me too and any other fan with common sense that can see the idea of wasting cash on someone to sit in the legends suite on matchdays because we aren't allowed to play a fit unsuspended player is ridiculous. Like we aren't wasting enough cash judging by our account losses lets just had to it.

    No I was a little one back then. Its an article about the impact of the Miners Strike rather than specific to that initiative foe When Saturday Comes. But with my crapness at deadlines dunno if it'll get done.
