  1. Exactly, they are never released for sale If you look it is the same gaps in specific parts of the stadium over time
  2. Difficult to compare to this picture as the red line isn't the outline, where as the pic on the eBay account is It is odd though that they have no picture of the actual number
  3. Personally I would say this has been most of the years I have been watching since 1987
  4. Remember him playing for us, good to see him still playing to a decent standard
  5. Here's an interesting angle of the celebrations https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGeHmcKrE/
  6. Highgate needed a 12 goal swing to make the play-offs in the ninth tier Midland League. Final match of the season last night
  7. Taunton relegated after losing at home to Weston 1-0 Marlon Jackson with an 84th minute winner
  8. Didn't know that rule either I assumed it was one of those instances where an official missed a booking
  9. No, you've got it wrong He did show him the yellow Confirmed yellow during a game is separate to in the shoot out
  10. I assume you realise we have been doing exactly this for years? Have a look at the sales for the Leicester game where extra sections (not just corporate) became available Do they want to move? Where are those extra supporters coming from?
  11. Already raised about 5th round onwards, but why are replays still happening in the qualifying rounds? With the crazy backlogs for many non league sides at the moment, I am sure they could benefit from needless replays too How would a side with a capacity of 10k make more moeny being at home against a team that could hold 40k? If we think VAR takes a long time, imagine how long a board of directors would take to agree on this
  12. Blimey that's a great flashback Appeared on the early pages in this thread a while back
  13. You should see the graphics he has on his movement - it is epic
  14. Is word pay the only option you can use? I genuinely don't know the answer - if it is can you let me know and I can raise for you at a higher level
  15. Interesting, but how many top clubs consistently progress to the later rounds? Also many top clubs, especially Man City they play full strength sides all the way through so they are clearly not worried What it does take away is the potential money maker from an additional game, but personally I like the idea of playing to a result on the day It also means no stupid midweek trips Agree, but ultimately how often does a smaller club get a replay with a big club?
  16. Interesting debate on TV last weekend between key stakeholders, horses are obviously bred to be a top animal and are given a top lifestyle, but on a flipside nobody wants to see any of them pass away One thing I didn't realise last year, the group that were behind all the demo's are a group that not only want to ban horse racing but they also believe any animal should not be kept as a pet - I'm not so sure if dog / cat owners had been made aware of this they would have got the support they got Another fact highlighted, more people get killed on a daily basis in car accidents, but there are not calls to ban cars Actual deaths on courses nowadays are much lower than in the past, and it was good to see those involved with the National listen to animal welfare groups about their recommendations to improve the safety, which ultimately was much better than in previous years Behind football Horse racing is the second most watched sport in the UK, so there is clearly not that big an issue to the majority
  17. Didn't the 3 Lions sell a replica of the shirt from around that time?
  18. I don't want to appear to be negative here, but like previously mentioned you are only counting the tickets currently available for sale As the Leicester fixture demonstrated there are hundreds more tickets that could be released if demand dictated and if sales are that high we'll see being released shortly. You mention kids for £1, we're already doing that offer that day The other point if an area of the Atyeo is sold cheaper, we'd have to not only offer the same price to Rotherham but also we'd have to match it in the South Stand On a completely different note, it's interesting to see demand as high as this for a complete dead rubber of a game and also that so many people consistently say "Manning ball" is so boring etc
  19. He's a better picture of Pack, 8 years ago today
  20. Did well getting tickets for the Rotherham section, didn't they have less than 300 tickets? I'm the flip side of the comment above, yes they were respectful that day but they've been a vile bunch at their place over the years Certain incidents won't be discussed on an open forum like this but they crossed the line badly not that long ago, those that were in the pub that afternoon will remember
  21. Not a good start for Villa at Chelsea tonight, their keeper has been sent off after 4 minutes
  22. Which of course from next season will see tickets available again for the cheaper South Stand
  23. I agree that it seems unfair to restrict everyone because of the behaviour of one or two clubs, and within them it is no doubt only a small percentage of their following. I'm not sure what accountability you feel you deserve from the club, or why? It is not their decision so unsure what you want them to come out and say? IT you want to hear from the SAG that badly you should contact them and see what they come back with. Though I know a FOI request many years ago sent into them about something else was constantly fobbed off without being answered - though SAGs from other areas did reply with full details to the requests. Off the top of my head I can only think of Reading that decided to cut the away allocation at their ground and look how their home form and crowds etc have nosedived since I guess it is all about opinions but the season there has definitely not been any advantage to the away sides due to a larger following, lets be honest Leeds were steamrolling everyone they played at the time we met them You may be surprised too that from discussions with fans groups there is no interest from any of them to relocate to the Atyeo in the near future, and unless we were selling out consistently I see no reason to even consider it For a ballpark figure with ticket sales and on the day purchase in the ground we made approx £100k from Leicester visiting the other week, why would anyone want to turn down money like that to limit to 2k for no reason?
