Merchandising, nothing is off the table.
We need to generate some revenue, starting with the pennies under the seats.

There's about 100k every week at Hillsborough if he'd just sort the prices out and get the ground full away fans included top and bottom tier for us should they not sell the tickets ...
It's simple maths ..I have 10 bananas that will be no good after Saturday so instead of selling 5 for $10 giving me $50 and keeping 5 that are no good ..I'll sell all 10 for $70 and make f@cking $20 extra that I wouldn't have had ffs ...

Apparently he's a successful real estate guy..
To be honest, I've never heard of or looked in to any of his portfolio to find out whether he is indeed, a savvy businessman.
On face value, I don't think he's clever enough to be running a football club given his almost 10yr tenure.

I see L 1 teams with well known major corporation shirt sponsors on the front yet we have sweet FA. He either wants too much or is just a pain to deal with. Like Imre’s banana analogy anything better than zero is a positive impact.

To add Chansiri taking on the EFL after was the final nail in our coffin !! But you just wouldn't want to work with the petulant child would you ..I've killed people with better attitudes than him on the building site playing with peanuts in comparison.

Hot potato it would seem.
You can somewhat appreciate his perspective of trying to find local or community investment such as that daft Taxi company with the flat cap as a logo.
It's just a tad obscure and can't generate much revenue, surely?
Am I wrong in thinking we were signed with Puma for shirts when he took over before he switched us to a third world, third party shirt manufacturer that produced substandard goods?
So much of Chansiri's handling of the club has felt like a fever dream.

Tickets for the world cups first game which takes place in the Azteca are already being bought up and resold ...
The first 400 tickets where bought at $1,400 pesos $70 quid half a days work for the working class ...not bad then you say ! Yep but they are being resold at $45,000 pesos which is about $2,500 pounds and in construction terms I can build you a swimming pool or a conservertry in you're house for that !
There will be ways for me of getting hold of some tickets nearer the time or possibly even getting in for free either by the naughty people I know or my mate who's chief groundsman at the Aztec ...I'll keep you posted !!
