Who says they should be half price? That would’ve been £188 for a BEnd early bird. Nobody expects that. All we are after is not to be some of the dearest in the whole division and we might actually hit the heady heights of five figures. Your Shearer stuff is neither here nor there, nobody expects PL sales, but to be merely back to where we were in those heady days of 2019 would do for now (I.e c10,000).

I know, great idea for under 11s, isn’t it. Just like we used to do with under 8s. If you’ve got the seats to spare, get them filled.

You were pretty much bang on last summer from what I recall. The FF meeting was just pre May payday for a lot of folk, so it was quite possible that a fair few were sold in the following days.

Possibly, which I’ve no particularly problem with being included as even back in the days of John Williams, comp STs were included in the overall figure… obviously it saves face much more handier these days too!

So we’ve sold 750 since the FF meeting, even though they’ve been off sale most of the time since? Some going that! As an aside the BEnd is interesting, very gappy in areas that are normally packed - I.e NO1 and generally seating further back, obviously quite a few regulars not as yet renewed…

Filan was a decent keeper, not sure Kelly was anything like ‘excellent’, certainly not by the time we had him in any case.

They sold c12k last summer, so sounds like they’ll be around that mark again by KO despite a season that finished poorly with a bit of a negative vibe around the place. Why? Price, price, price as we bob along with mid ranking third division club numbers..

Tottenham haven’t appointed a new DoF yet… so how come they are just about to announce the Celtic fella as their new manager?

I’m not saying it’s right or wrong just that you won’t get an answer. But I’m sure it can be added to the agenda if you ask O2G.

Listen there’s no shame in letting a slippery operator like him pull the wool over your eyes, how else do you think he’s lasted so long in football? Unfortunately the reality is, despite the flannel he fed you, is that the commercial operation of this club has regressed alarmingly under his watch, there have been ZERO positives.

All clubs do that and there’s not a chance they’ll release the true bums on seats number - unless released by the police (who do know the *real* attendance for safety purposes).

Is he buggery doing that 😁 He doesn’t give a feck what fans think and judging by the latest FF just makes up the figures anyway.

We heard all this from him re Burnley last summer…

He’s stopping anyone buying a ST just to foil a fella called goozeburger on some obscure message board?

We didn’t have a head coach of DoF this time last summer either…

I’ve told this story mannnyyy times, but I actually got that from the horses mouth. On his first day at the club in ‘97, the board told JW that ‘we have 8,000 fans’, he didn’t understand the point considering we had 25,000+ average gates at the time. They meant 8k will always turn up, the rest you have to fight bloody hard to keep in the tent, and he never forgot that lesson - Swag never bothered to learn it in the first place.

Hendry supports Hearts and Chelsea according to wiki.

What you reckon, back to back relegations?

Because they enjoy their little pow-wows with club execs, ‘off the record’ gossip etc, obviously gives them a feeling of importance as well as ‘I know something you don’t know’ over the rest of the pleb fanbase.

Perfect for him, bloody risky for Leicester.

Presumably ‘seat transfers’, though not sure why it is taking a week. But not a single update from the club either… well they are ‘delighted’ with 7,300, so why rush getting them back on sale.

WBA are in a financial hole post parachute payments, they owe money to a load of lenders - can’t see him going there, a sideways move at best.

Gerrard 😁 Bloody hell, have clubs learnt nowt from Lamps? But if a parachute club wants to go down that road I’m all for it!

Tugay at Celtic was some performance, must be the best in a game that ended in defeat.

I would think so, as his daughter is promoting it as his ‘authorised biography’ on Twitter.
