    Judging by your user name - champs95 suggests that’s all you’ve got to cling onto , and there imlies your problem as a club - you THINK you’re a PL team . When we were above you in the league 4/5 years ago did you think you were a better team then? (Unless my memories playing tricks on me) - I’m under no illusion what we are - a yo yo club from L1 to championship and think this time it will take us 3 years minimum to get out of the division - I stand corrected , but the history books show ourselves and yourselves as the the longest serving in the second tier of football.
    You should be more concerned at losing around £69m over the last 5 seasons as in any other business you would’ve been sent to the wall. You are operating beyond your means . You get crowds of 900 more but are paying 4x as much in wages - you do the maths!!

    We have won as many Premier League titles as Liverpool. We have won more Premier League Titles than Aston Villa, Everton, Spurs. We are the most successful town club in the whole of the country. We have a great history.

    We are a much smaller town than Barnsley, but get bigger crowds, despite being very close to Merseyside and Manchester and live within half an hour drive of 3 of the biggest clubs in world football.


    We have a good RB. He will do well for us.

    I have you on a fishing line.

    Enjoy Div1. Bye now.

    Hahaha!! For a small town you also have a lot of mental institutions, the main incumbents being delusional. Wait until FFP kicks in, ouch !!!

    When it kicks in, we will still have won as many Premier League Titles as Liverpool, more than Spurs, Villa, Everton etc.
    We will still proudly hold the record going back over 135 years of being Britains most successful town team.
    We will still have a category A academy.
    And we will remain higher up the table than Barnsley, as ever, and you will remain lower league rubbish.
    That has been the case over the past 135 years, it will remain the same for the next 135 years.
    The one memory you will never have, that I have .....watching your side beat Man Utd to a league title. And picking up that title at Anfield. Having watched football at every single level, that was by far the best. Closely followed by seeing my side get to a league cup final and beating Spurs in front of 85k. Major honours.
    It's what seperates the men from the boys.
    You wouldn't know about any of that following your little club in Yorkshire. Over here we do things properly.

    From what I can see on your last set of accounts published incorporated the whole Adam Armstrong transfer fee under tangible asset trading, when in reality the transfer fee is usually paid over the period of the outgoing players new contract if I’m not mistaken . If you break that down into x years you get a very grim set of books. Put it this way, if my business owed the bank as much as BRFC do I wouldn’t be getting told I’m doing a good job!

    I'm only 45. In my lifetime I have seen my side pick up as many Premier league Trophies as a a Liverpool fan has.
    Thats a major honour. In my lifetime.

    We also won the League Cup in 2002. Another major honour. Again in my lifetime.
    So thats 2 in my lifetime.
    You are an old man. How many major honour have you ever seen you side pick up?
    Would that be ZERO?
