If you can make it on a calculator, it's got to be mathsish.

Calculators don't usually have a letter Y!

In his heart of hearts he knows numbers are sexy, as are their purveyors. Although phone shop staff do wonder when I ask them for all their available SIMs, so I can pick the number that's easiest to remember/most mathematically pleasing. All the more so if they've asked why it is.

Just need to be careful when comparing ticket prices vs Clubs who have been delivering silverware regularly over the last 25 years .
I get we have to boost our income but fleecing the fans will only add a drop in the ocean required and benchmarking our ticket prices against clubs who have regularly won trophies is where it gets dangerous .

So we can use Spurs as the benchmark then?

Yeah, well if 4th is more important than a trophy, that's what you get success starts being measured in different ways.

Haha yeah they are the outlier for sure , basically won fuck all but badge themselves up as serial title winners. There's the London factor plus a shiny new stadium smell so they'll argue that for their pricing . Guess they have made a champions league final which was funny watching them shit their pants in.

Have to take into account that people in Brum don’t get London wages either.

If I recall, one used the pi symbol rather than a Y.

There are plenty of people in the West Midlands who earn decent money.

Yes, London is awash with cash, but it's not like that means everyone else subsists on baked beans and scratchcards.
