Travis interview

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Not the most interesting ever but some decent snippets about budget (going up about 10%) and a direct question about Coley Parry (we haven’t got anything to worry about…apparently…) only half an hour

[Currywurst and Chips]

Thought The Lo Down were no more

Always enjoyed it more than Outlook and Gilso’s show

[Hoover Attack]

Was this the one with the big fat guy and the simian looking one that used to do songs?

Not sure one of those I am/would rather be.

But no

[Long slender neck]

One of them looked like Dean Cox and one ate sandwiches. It was the better podcast

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Little fact, I created the two best orient podcasts of all time

[Long slender neck]

Why do you do it?

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Selflessness really. A longing to give back something,
I guess

[CEB]

Coming into them all cold, my suspicion is it’d be easier to make the best orient podcast than the worst

[Rich Tea Wellin]

We took the approach of burning out and then fading away after making about 40 episodes. Can’t believe some are still going 200 eps in

[BiggsyMalone]

Season tickets up 5% and a new tv deal in place creating extra revenue but the budget only up 10%

Lovely stuff.

Guess the hunt for new investment is going quite slowly then, particularly if we're circling the wagons around Parry.

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Interesting that he talks to Richie after every game and that they are all going in a retreat next week to talk business.

We have to make the loss manageable. Its not a benevolent society.

Ah yes, all those ‘losses’

[Frogger]

10% I think is a very decent increase. Nearly as much as train drivers wage

[PKM]

Nige neatly swerved the Coley Parry situation.
We all know he made an investment into LO, that’s not in question.
What is in question is is he able to fund his share of the annual losses as an 18% shareholder? Ie stump up for 18% of the losses?
That’s the real question.

Red flag talking about not being able to get a ticket for less than $200 (which is bollocks btw). Can see some steep increases going forward

What does this mean? $200 for what?

[CEB]

Apparently he said that in Boston you can’t see any entertainment for under 200 dollars, as a kind of “therefore chill your mittens about price rises, c***s, you don’t know you’re born”

[Mistadobalina]

There's a consistent theme across American investment in British sport where they think we massively underpay for the 'product' compared to what they can charge in the states and could be fleeced for much more. There's a reason so many dollars are pouring into English football at the moment, the exchange rate has become very favourable to yanks and they smell an opportunity to make a lot of money out of a league they think is still commercially underperforming compared to what it could be.

I think Travis and Teague broadly 'get' the club, but the other owners are almost certainly going to be a lot more hard headed about getting an eventual return on investment and minimizing losses in the meantime. Think that tension will probably be easy ish to ignore until the question of a new ground really comes to a head. That's going to be an incredible amount of their money gambled on the chance that it takes us up a level and makes us more attractive to sell, or more capable of a tilt at the prem in the distant future.

[Hoover Attack]

Is that really the case? Or is it just that he’s out of touch with the ordinary man?

Boston Red Sox tickets are on sale for $18 though

Celtics and Bruins will be less than $200 for a regular season game too in certain parts of the arena. Probably Patriots too.

New England revolution $24

Travis talks a lot of bollocks sometimes.

He probably just means the hospitality seats.
