It’s more likely to appeal to a convenience store or Papa John’s pizza delivery place... something completely unrelated to football. £75k is crazy money though. I’m not sure on the square footage but would guess that it should command a rent of 30% of that at best. Plus a rent free period usually offered as standard. Assuming the space doesn’t have toilets or water, waste and drainage then this would be the first thing to get costed up rather than worry about the amount of rent. And instead of rent, look at offering a turnover rent - ie a percentage of the turnover rather than a fixed rent.

Great post and you're right to highlight that some of the marketing fundamentals are missing at the club, particularly with the ST campaign but it's a common theme. It's easy to say that 'crowds will grow only when the performances / results improve', which is logical, but that doesn't mean you disregard basic promotion of your product - particularly not when some of the options available to you are free. I'd suggest that you put your summary in an email to the club if you haven't done already - wouldn't be surprised to see some activity along the same line next week as a result. It might appear patronising but everyone needs a reminder to do the basics, sometimes.

Bradford were undecided as of yesterday. Would imagine he'd be training with latics if he was likely to be at latics next season...

Where is everyone drinking pre game tomorrow?

Heard someone talking about this at Fleetwood. The rumour was he was having a medical yesterday. Any truth in this? Not seen a reason given for him not being in the squad yesterday...

Was a top lad Andy. His mrs ran my local pub and he was in there after games and was always a very genuinely bloke and a cracking player for latics

SSN reporting that we're "confident of signing Ebanks Blake this week"

I saw him having a pop during the orient game and it annoyed me. What the detractor was saying was fair and Johnson just told them to "shut up", like we should all just sit there and not have an opinion when we're losing at home. With you all the way on Liam Kelly by the way. Can't see how we've justified paying a fee for this lad on his performances so far - I can't see him as starter, never mind captain.

Lots of poor players as referenced above but I was amazed by how ineffective Kelly was. Is he woefully unfit, or have we just been mugged by Bristol City? Not seen a captain play that poorly for a long time.

Brilliant stuff. Proper had me chuckling at this, keep em coming!

Was randomly chatting to my Liverpool supporting mate 2 days ago about Wayne Harrison and now this. It was in reaction to the rumours about Tarky going to Liverpool. His reaction to my text "last player Liverpool signed from Oldham? Wayne Harrison?" Bizarre and very very sad if his death is true.

you might be right, i just can't remember anything official coming out of the club on the matter. Does anyone know if Simon has an email address which is available to fans?

The original poster has compelled me to write an email to Simon Corney on the subject of the Rochdale Road end. Does anyone know if his email address is available? Or if there's anyone who you can email on his behalf?

Awesome feeling when we all stepped off at London Bridge and started singing. There was probably just as many Millwall fans there than on the platform at South Bermondsey but for some reason it just felt safe again, back in civilisation. Good times!

reminds me of Jermaine Johnson looking at that video. JJ caused defenders of every level all sorts of problems but couldn't shoot. He seems to have found an end product at Sheff Weds so it just shows you have to be patient with players like this. Hopefully Sid the kid can do the biz
