  1. I understood King wants to see out the rest of the season and move back up Leicestershire way. Well that's what his wife said on Social media months ago, and wives tend to get what we want
  2. At best he was unprofessional. His comments didn't upset me as such, but him using his position to make them did. Shame on WBA, they need to employ more professional people as it reflects on them as a club.
  3. Music is so much personal taste. I tend not to like many female singers in general, seeing even just that clip I've decided she's not for me. Last Glastonbury I went and saw Raye who was highly recommended to me by many people. She didn't do it for me at all but has since gone on to win loads and loads of music awards and nominations at the Brits (?). I certainly wouldn't see her again, but like I said music is personal taste. I do like Glastonbury for that, having the choice and discovering new stuff. If you don't like something you can move on, but unless it's really bad I tend to stick it out and try to get the feel of it. I stuck out Raye but wish I hadn't if I'm honest.
  4. Regarding the substantial increase in the SS, I can see why the club have done it. They have gambled on people paying the £105 (?)and not bringing their kid for much of the season, so empty 'blocked' seats. Or/ they are hoping people don't want the seat at that price which then frees it up to be sold for a POTD price of around £30 a go. No the seats might not be sold every match, but as they are the cheapest in the stadium for POTD they most likely will be the first to be sold. So a seat will only have to be sold around 3 or 4 times (to an adult) and it would generate the same income as a kids ST. As for the benefits thing, I'm bored of this now and has taken the thread way off topic. I still stand by my belief that if you want anything above the human right basics then you have to work for it or fund it yourself somehow, whether that is hobbies, holidays, fancy foods, days out, whatever. Thats my final word. If you don't agree, I'm fine with that.
  5. I believe these are already catered for aren't they?
  6. Was that when unemployment was at a record high and there were hundreds of applicants for even the basic jobs? It's very different now with vacancies unfilled. There is of course work from home, broadband etc which there wasn't back then. Most fit and able bodied people can now do some sort of work, but unfortunately the benefits system doesn't motivate them too. Obviously there are exceptions but I personally don't see why it would be feasible to offer discounts in this case. The cost will have to be found somewhere, and everything has a cost.
  7. There are plenty of parks etc for fresh air and exercise. If football really is a MUST stand on the touchline of a parks match. But to suggest a business should offer their expensive product at a further discount to people on benefits is a complete non starter.
  8. Why should people on benefits get discounted tickets? Isn't football a hobby? No matter how you sugar coat this it's not a necessity. Benefits from my understanding should only cover basic needs, food, warmth, transport. Not fags, booze, drugs, betting and Sky TV, and now football???!!! If people on benefits want those things they work for them or save up like everyone else!
  9. I saw Dizzee Rascal a couple of times, last time at Glastonbury where the stage (West Holts) was much too small for him, it was rammed and caused chaos with it being late and people trying to get by on the way to Shangri-la etc. I think he's lost a bit of credibility since then though, I fully expect Joey B to have a ticket!
  10. I'm happy, not delighted but I like Coldplay. Anyone wanting tickets in the resale might be easier than sometimes.
  11. I saw that too, wasn't even given as a foul throw was it? it hit the ground hard and bounced 15 feet into the air, most odd
  12. I guess they are the empty seat holders on the whole. Now there is a choice of paying a premium price and leaving the seat empty or giving it up. Either way the club wins, and by doing this people in other stands can have smaller increases. Lets face it £50 for a ticket and a free shirt was too cheap and it was abused. The price increase has possibly freed up some seats for much wanted POTD and brought bthe SS more inline with other stands.
  13. My initial thought was Vicar. I know we need prayers, but still
  14. So you want kids running on the pitch at any random time do you, I doubt that. Let a couple get away with it and they will all start again. Remember all the shirt beggers we used to have towards the end of matches a couple of years ago.? I don't want to see that again thanks
  15. It never is as like we all know ST holders are counted in as standard. But actual bums on seats is always at least 5000 off what is given, yesterday it was more due to all the factors previously mentioned I would think
