The fact we have won 3 home games in 2022 still worries me - having been at the game at Ochilview I definitely fancy us to create plenty chances again, but feel we will almost certainly concede. Just need to hope the chances fall to the right people - worrying that after 13 games it's only Dipo and Andy Murdoch with more than 1 goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jml looks a handful every time I’ve seen him but he hasn’t featured much. Young also looks like he can be important for us and the other two will come good imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the best page I found - How Much Does it Cost to Run Football Flood lights - TACHYON Light. Obviously it does depend on the type of bulb used and the price per kwh that the club pays (given that the price cap doesn't apply to businesses we cannot assume the domestic cap of 34p per kWh). Basically using the type of bulb in that link (which I gather is a more efficient LED type rather than metal halide) it would be about 18 quid an hour to produce the required lux. Let's say ours are super inefficient or we pay a lot more - make that 40 quid an hour. 5 hours (?) on a matchday would be 200 quid worst case and possibly a lot less. I sanity checked this by looking at other posts (all from before the energy crisis) which all seemed to indicate the energy usage of floodlights wasn't really too bad in the grand scheme of things. Happy to be corrected by people who actually know what they are talking about though! It would also be all the lights in the stadium, hospitality etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod1967 Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Results helped us tonight if we're going to go for top half finish, Bullen really does need to get his selections right after 2 poor games from him, need to have better going forward than Sam Ashford especially at home where our form is very poor, also far more guile than Sam provides to break teams down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking of this and looking at the kick off debate - 2 of the home wins (Partick and Dundee) have been Friday nights - and the one before that was a Sunday v Raith as it was Boxlng Day. So I think since we beat QoS at home on 16th October 2021, we have only won one home Saturday 3pm league game in a year since then - which was Lee Bullens first game in charge on 8th January v Arbroath. Beginning to think we should just play every game either on a Friday night or away from home Or just make it a Saturday lunchtime to put us out our misery earlier.

Iain Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 How come we didn't play last night when others were making up their skipped game? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I thought that too but then remembered we're playing on Friday. Was your postponed Queen death game against Thistle? May be the reason you weren't playing last night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to be corrected by people who actually know what they are talking about though! Apologies for jumping back a fair bit here, on the energy cap question. I have read reports of business owners being quoted upto £1.05 per kWh, which is in effect trebling if not worse their energy bills, with one Hotel owner saying they were going from £400k/year to nearly £1.5m/year. I would assume the clubs have all had similar eye watering quotes for energy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a look at the business support scheme (Energy Bill Relief Scheme: help for businesses and other non-domestic customers - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)) and it appears that small business users should expect to get a discount of around 40% but it does depend on the specific contract they are on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
