    Morning all,

    It was probably noticeable that last season we were less 'active' in terms of choreographed displays etc. A combination of a few things, largely coming down to the core members of S82 having less time (And money!) to plan/arrange etc. I think also, that (without purporting to speak 'for' anyone) given the 12 months or so that preceded it. We all just needed a bit of a break!

    Going in to this season, it does feel like a bit of a fresh start. And there is an appetite within us to revitalise the more visual aspect of what we 'do'.

    Although unfortunately, on top of the time commitments there is obviously the fiscal element too...

    As some of you will know, we do operate sticker (and limited merchandise) sales, both through our website - https://section82.bigcartel.com/ - and also 'in person' on Match Days from El Rincon (The Spanish Bar) on North Street. From which ALL profits are recycled in to the pot. So you can support us through purchases made in either way.

    Whilst completely understanding that 'spare change' isn't something synonymous with many peoples current circumstances, We have also set up the below 'crowd funding' page. Which if you are able (and would like) to contribute to, donations of any size would be gratefully received.

    All being well, we've got some big plans for the season ahead. Starting with Sunderland (H) and in memory of everyone's mate, Stoney Garnett.

    Great work . Just donated. ?

  2. Cundy showed today also he could tackle, not just be good aerially  and did a few really good interceptions - I was impressed with his mobility - plus a tackle in the box that was just so clean . 
     

    also - and this probably  seals why he should get a contract - he has his own chant now which I heard for the first time today. Given how many players have been here years and don’t still … then surely that’s a sign ?!

    Although a bit before my time got a bit choked up whilst that was going on today-  very well done all and a great result to boot 

     

    Agree . Thought the club did not well today in its preparations and fair play to boro fans who also contributed. 

    I definitely had a tear in my eye when all 8 were on the centre circle stood on their respective areas .

    Saw that on the highlights, ref completely bottled it.

    We were right in front of it and I saw it as a head butt - certainly one that gets players sent off . The ref was in our line of vision . As soon as it happened he was shaking his head and saying no as he walked over.  
    he was a very fickle ref. Constantly pulling us up for taking throw ins at the right spot but one Blackpool throw in which should have been in their half ended up with the player throwing it about 5 yards in our half .. not the reason why we lost but infuriating nevertheless
