The surprising thing for me yesterday was how long it took for a steward or policeman to arrive on the scene.  That incident in the video went on for a good couple of minutes, imagine if it had been a medical emergency. 

Speaking to stewards they said they were told to hold off while the incident was recorded. 

We already know that local magistrates will ban anyone throwing a punch so they stood off and let this guy take a hiding. 

It was a couple of minutes before anyone arrived on the scene, this incident went on much longer than this video shows

Well that's embarrassing.

The guy probably shouldn't have celebrated as thugs do indeed exist, but people can't handle it and feel the need to use violence? Pathetic.

Maybe the question should be asked why we've had so many away supporters being able to buy tickets in this block this season 

Sick and tired of having away fans around us, most Are respectful, but that idiot got everything he deserved for standing up and celebrating in a Birmingham shirt. 

Perhaps you should come up and sit around it and see how you would react?

Pay £5.20 in the stadium then

Assume you realise it's not just the stadium that is an alternative?

Never went in but spoke to guys stood behind me and they said thatchers gold was £3.20 a pint but £4.20 2 hours before and after the game 

 

So robbing the football supporters? 

They'll soon lose business doing this when the reopening novelty Wears off

Am I the only one that finds this all a bit needy and desperate? 

Take a selfie, get an autograph from a player but seriously, if you want a shirt go and buy one like everyone else 

Needs to change

Yeah no half a job here, they've done a nice job here.   Hope it gets the custom to stay open

Fingers crossed it's sensibly priced 

He got injured during the EFL Cup match between Sheffield Wednesday and Huddersfield on Sunday 1st August 2021

Only returned on Saturday 8th January 2022 to referee the Doncaster vs Fleetwood fixture. 

Gave four yellow cards in the Cardiff vs Blackpool fixture last weekend 

I'm still amazed this question literally pops up for every game now 

I'd have thought every one would know how to check for themselves by now

So, unless I want to spend a long while in a queue at the City ground on Saturday, my only option is to drive the two hundred odd miles to Bristol to collect. 

Why can't the club post out tickets any more? We surely can't be that short of cash?

You surely were joking that you would have driven 200 hundred miles rather than spend a few minutes in a queue?

Fair enough. Thankyou!

Was part of the filming of BBC Wales' Sin Bin TV show last night, was an entertaining recording.

Max Boyce has many an amusing anecdote, and Gareth Thomas is hilarious, just a shame most of what he said won't make the cut

No worries, the Bristol boys will win it for us.

Good god no.

It's a bizarre choice of venue though isn't it?

Definitely. 

I'd be pretty confident if Ashton Gate had been hosting the ground would have seen large numbers of schools and junior football teams in attendance

I run a girls team.  It's not as if we were going to organise a coach trip for a 3pm kick off in Middlesborough on a Thursday afternoon during school term is it?  

 

Depends, do you live in Middlesbrough?

I wouldn't be too alarmed. The Euros represents a different rating of  competition from what was a friendly invitational tournament, even if they were good sides. It will also be played at a better time of the year and will no doubt reap the benefit from intensive promotion before the event. 

Very true, but those attendances would leave teams like Manor Farm embarrassed 

Some of these crowds must be very concerning with the euros on the horizon

I am bringing my son and nephew (both age 6) to their first ever game on Saturday 5th March (v Birmingham) and wondered whether there was anything I could arrange to make it extra special for them. Maybe a 'shout out' over the tannoy system, or a message on the screen? I seem to remember years back that the club used to offer kids a free cap too, is that something that still happens?

 

Many thanks.

Have a look at this thread, the answer is within it

I may be doing Emma Hayes a disservice but I think she has a tendency to favour her own club players when asked to name the woman of the match. 

It's often the same, a player that scores a goal will get the shout even though they haven't really been the best player on the pitch

The squad is certainly taking shape heading into this summers tournament, England certainly won't be far away and with a bit of luck in our games we could be real contenders.

I watched the game. Cracking match! I don't know what Lauren Hemp has to do to get voted woman of the match. She was involved in nearly everything good about England's forward play, forcing the save from the German keeper that broke to Bright for England's second and even winning the midfield header that sent Fran Kirby on her way for the Lionesses 3rd.
