Insight on MK Dons duo Andy Fisher and Matt O'Riley

Reporting it today as twine, o’riley and fisher

Is this my scoop

Get off Twitter Risc :lol:

for what it’s worth I am fully aware those reports are nonsense. If we are struggling to come up with the funds for Fisher, the other two wont have to worry about house hunting down here any time soon.

 

[Fireboy]

True risc but my point was that they have improved from last season and I suspect that the players we are after have played their part in their rise up the table.

OR perhaps their rise is more to do witha change of manager with different tactics and plan of play?

Perhaps but if they are part of their rise then isn't that good no matter who is manager.

I thought the 3rd was Darling?

Fisher,Darling and O'Riley?

It would be cheaper to move to Milton Keynes...!

Sell on clause or transfer interest?

 

[Swansea93]

I’d say they’ve got some sort of sell on clause

It's an interesting one as logic says that would be right (I think he signed on a free transfer?) but there's no real reason to report they are watching developments if that is the case?

Or maybe just reading too much into it

Birch estimating we will losing out on £400k per match day with no fans, we more than likely need to sell before signing off on any deals imo.

I read his £400k and I'm not sure I buy it.

What is our matchday sales crowd at the moment? 2000/3000? At £30 each that is £90k (And £30 is top top end)

DO we make a huge profit on catering? Even if we got lost revenue to £400k which I just cannot see how much do we actually make? A closed door games takes out the large bulk of the staffing costs.

Hospitality is how many people (pay on the day people)?

The figure seems high if I am honest

Not sure if it’s the same in football, but with rugby the big earner is the hospitality boxes. Hence why ospreys need to play at Liberty even with crowds more suited to The Gnoll or St Helens. The Dragons where I’m from for example tried drumming up interest around Gwent valleys by playing games at Ebbw Vale but lost out too much due to know corporate facilities there.

Though I do agree, £400k is surely exaggerated.

I don’t buy it either. It’s probably a figure that has been manipulated in order to try and get Drakeford to relax the rules on sporting events. I’d personally put the figure at half of the £400k quoted.

 

[PSumbler]

There maybe a difference today given the fact everything was pay for the game but isn't it right in the FA Cup that the visiting team get a share of the gate receipts?

No one good I hope

Maybe Fulton? Not that I don’t rate him but he seems the most likely. Otherwise I reckon this fisher deal would have been done

He's talking about you mentioning Birch I imagine.
