I think any chance of our club indulging in positive public relations can be easily summed up by how they look at ticketing.
Surely that's the ultimate PR?

Fuck the real fans, sell to the highest bidder. Legalised touting after an Out the Tout campaign. Great PR.

They could not care less about the fans. Just the £s their customers bring.

We have become no better than Chelsea at manager treatment and at this rate I doubt we d be able to attract good names in the future. Completely, utterly pointless sacking right before Christmas, with no clear indication of replacement even being considered at the time. I agree with Jimmy completely here - all this hot-air talk about a long-term project is exactly that if we're unwilling to back a manager up properly at some point and give him 5 years min to implement his ideas. We've just spent over 100m on 7 top class new players and there s talk of new signings in Jan - fucking embarrassing - laughing stock of the PL again

Just think how well they could have done if they'd offered to subsidise the Woolwich fa cup tickets to bring them in live with a more realistic price
 
The bookies rarely get it wrong, although to be fair, in this instance, it's a narrow window that I've looked at.
Harry redknapp was the odds on favourite for the England role.

Odds mean nothing.

A low price doesn't mean that the bookies think that a particular selection will win. It just means that they want to limit their liability on that selection, as they have already received a high volume of money placed on it. A high price doesn't mean that the bookies think that selection won't win. It means that bookies want to encourage people to back that selection, thereby reducing their liability on lower-priced selections.

Bookies' prices are not a reflection of what the bookie thinks will happen. They are a reflection of how the bookie is acting to balance their risks so that they make the same profit regardless of what actually goes on to happen.

The prices on betting exchanges like Betfair and Betdaq are much closer to reflecting actual "probabilities", because they are set by punters, not by bookies.
