  1. Sadly not, intentional but replaced by the following:
  2. The club’s professionalism shines through again. For anyone not clued up with internet ‘slang’ that means ‘**** my life’. Pathetic.
  3. As memorable as that season was I’ll be delighted if we never have to play another LDV Vans/Johnstones Paint/Papa Johns/Checkatrade trophy game again in our history.
  4. I completely disagree. If someone makes the effort to attend multiple away games in the current season vs someone who has only bothered to cherry pick in the last 30 years (probably Liverpool, Man City, West Ham), then they should absolutely get priority. It’s their fault for never making the effort to attend more away games. Your proposal also massively favours older supporters, how can an 18 year old have built up 30 years of loyalty?
  5. I would imagine many people refer to the whole area as that because “Singing Section” is beyond cringeworthy, and everyone knows what they mean anyway. I just use Standing Section personally.
  6. Crazy to have lumped the “singing section” in with the rest of the South Stand on this decision. Swansea game aside, those blocks are full every week and the club are well aware that demand far exceeds capacity. No upside to having general sale tickets available there, and it will only cause further issues with people buying tickets to sit in their correct seat unaware it is unreserved. Blocks S25-S27 should absolutely be made available to move into during the seat move period for any fans that don’t renew.
  7. Odd to bother mentioning it in this thread then.
  8. Lower sides in the division are completely comfortable sitting in and defending against our slow, “progressive” football. Compile that with defensive errors every game at the other end and it’s a recipe for disaster.
  9. Makes you wonder why I can log on now to buy tickets for Birmingham away on the 29th December, and the only option is £1.50 postage?
  10. I notice that postage for this fixture has doubled from the usual £1.50 to £3.00, meaning the excellent £10 price set by West Ham will potentially cost £14.25 once the additional “booking fee” con is added in. The club just can’t help themselves can they. Usually I opt to have away tickets posted but have gone for collection this time.
  11. And this was repeated exactly 10 years later in 2017/18. 3rd in the league going into January, and we plump for Lois Diony, Ryan Kent and Liam Walsh. Cheers for that Steve. Compare that to Cardiff, who in the same window brought in Marko Grujic on loan from Liverpool (now a starter for Porto and previously Hertha Berlin), and splashed out £5m on Gary Madine (a poor signing from Warnock, but the money was there regardless). They finished 2nd on 90 points, we finished 11th on 67.
  12. To me this read more as a rambling piece intent on massaging the Lansdowns’ egos at every given opportunity. It gives them far more credit with regards to some master plan being in place than we know to actually be true. They didn’t like Pearson as a person and are simply reverting back to the “Lee Johnson plan” which ultimately left the club in such a mess last time, with Tinnion now seemingly taking up the role of Mark Ashton.
  13. This went both ways and actually it was Jon Lansdown who started it last season when he called out Nigel as underperforming in a radio interview and said we had a top six squad, to everyone’s bemusement. Complete and utter delusion from the daddy’s boy, and Steve is the same.
  14. Not a chance I’ll be showing up next Saturday.
  15. Maybe because the OS won’t provide the answer?? Anyone who travels away will know that the OS doesn’t keep a rolling tally of tickets sold and the ticketing website is unreliable as they’re sold in batches. Only people at the club in the ticketing office will know, hence the thread asking if anyone has any idea.
  16. Still going but don’t even think about getting something on draft and stick to the cans as all the regulars do ?
  17. Really? I rarely went in the Black Cat but have been in the London Inn and Tap and Barrel countless times with various different mates and never once heard anyone describe them as being tense or made to feel unwelcome. Brilliant pubs.
  18. Their manager decided to make 8 changes, the side they had out was shocking.
  19. There was barely anyone on them because they were put on at very short notice and neither the club nor the police bothered to mention it.
  20. I’d almost erased this from memory, what a terrible period of time that was. Half of this forum also wanted it to remain a permanent thing forever, how silly they must feel now.
  21. Very good shout that. We were in the same spoons in Newport last season though and there weren’t many other city fans in there, there were no issues or trouble so not sure what their problem was this time. I’m surprised that one in Cardiff didn’t have bouncers on the doors as well.
  22. Exactly this. Cardiff smashed up the toilets in the ground last season causing thousands of pounds of damage yet still get a free roam of Bristol. Meanwhile we were even denied entry to a Wetherspoons in Newport last weekend who had 2 bouncers on the door from 8am ready for us, luckily another pub was open at 9am that did let us in. If Avon and Somerset treated the Welsh how we get it off the Heddlu year on year they would be crying their eyes out about it being anti-Welsh xenophobia, and no doubt it would be all over “Wales Online”.
