No it doesn't ... if you don't find 10 pounds blowing down the street today is that 10 pounds you've lost?
It's a 'lost' opportunity but it's not a loss

I see it more like you were late to book a decent space at a trade fair, so you get a smaller space in a suboptimal area and your expected sales suffered as a result.
You're all talking about Opportunity Cost. Yes, it's a real concept. Don't let

tell you differently; he's having a stroke tonight.
What he mistakes is that an offer on the table or an offer expected is different that walking out on to Tottenham High Road and "hoping" that 10 pounds will blow down the street.
Opportunity Cost is a street vendor who has taken notice that he makes 30 pounds per hour, before fixed and variable costs of 22 pounds for his cart and supplies. After all that, he brings home 8 pounds per hour and swears there must be a better way. After another 6 months of this shit he notices that on average 10 pounds of paper notes blow down the street in a typical hour. The Opportunity Cost that this street vendor has suffered is therefore 2 pounds per hour, because he'd be 2 pounds/hour better off quitting his street stall and chasing paper notes throughout the day.

Good comparison .... opportunity lost not an actual loss .... but I get your point

Blimey have you not involved yourself in enough dumb arguments for one day? But fair play at least this time you're spot on, it's an opportunity cost not a loss ... but hey 'Let's Call the Whole Thing Off' now there's a solid argument to debate and in song as well.
You're a fucking moron and it's plain and obvious for most everyone on this forum.
Here little fishy ................
What a silly argument. There are offers on the table so by not accepting them we are of course losing revenue we could have had. Trying to qualify this with “it’s not an actual loss” is ridiculous semantics. So if we signed a naming rights contract and then the next day it got voided for technical reasons, that would be a loss, but if we never sign the contract at all it’s not? We’re in the same boat either way.
Hmmmm...People should smuggle in their own sarnies...
Doesn't the shirt deal with AIA state that they are the only sponsor on the shirt? Meaning we can't put another companys logo on the sleeve.
I swear I remember reading that a while ago.

It'll have to be on the shorts then. I recommend low down on the side of the leg, bearing in mind how all these effeminates run around with their shirts untucked nowadays.
I knew that as a kid.The bell bit anywayAny word on naming this thing yet? Last I heard Coca Cola was leading the charge...
Just found out most people don’t know the bell is called Big Ben and not the clock, the clock is called Tickety Ted the time telling bitch...
You're being a bit too pedantic, John.
If he receives a counterfeit £10 note, has he been 'Opportunity Knocked.'
I thank you.
Now if only they'd offer fries, there would finally be some measure of justice in this world.
the club have listened and you can finally get chips on their own!
will probably have to pay a premium for them though
Fries? Bloody Fries!
You'll be asking us to play NFL in there next...
