How do you know?

Thank you both. Was unsure if you would have to get a set seat in advance as you can select from the map on the website.

A draw against Hull is no good.

Does anyone know if season ticket holders have to get actual tickets, as on the website it has a fee even if you allocate to a season ticket holder?

Utterly bizarre.

Thanks. Was this from the ticket office?

Exactly yeah and missed them. Him and Brereton offered a threat but missed chances.

No. I would start with the same midfield 3 and front 3 as today. He was bright and unlike Vale, he actually has some attributes that I can see, quite quick and getting into goalscoring positions. But it wasn't an effective enough cameo to alter things when we created so much. It is a hell of an ask going into such a critical last 6 games, it isn't the time for experimenting. He has shown enough to be a potential option off the bench though.

That is different from the point that you made questioning his commitment by implying that his mind was elsewhere. I don't see how based on his performance today that the conclusion could be that he wasn't giving his all. He seemed visibly frustrated a few times with refereeing decisions and things not quite falling his way. End product is obviously a different argument altogether. Aside from his assist I thought that Dolan offered the least threat along the front 3 and Szmodics was also wasteful in the final third so it would be unfair to single him out. Brereton did offer a threat although missed a couple of chances. That being said, even this season you cannot say that Brereton is less productive than either of the other 2, still comfortably our top scorer.

He hasnt had a good season compared to last season but he is a good player and I was thinking it is worth making a change to try and rectify our recent defensive problems. Tight call.

Very much must win territory. I wonder how many Sky have skimmed off the potential attendance with again a lack of consideration regarding the kick off time. Assuming all of our players are available again, which considering that Brereton left in a protective boot is a real concern. Then I would just stick Kaminski back in and maybe Scott Wharton for Carter who has dipped in recent games.

Not a chance that Burnley lie down and take it easy.

Did he say anything about the severity of the injury to anyone?

Where did you hear this? Brereton being in a protective boot is a worry.

The rest of the season is all about the next 6 games and every point is crucial. It's not about player development. That being said, he has perhaps shown today that he could be a potential option off the bench to make a difference.

Its such an easy, lazy assumption to suggest that Brereton's mind is elsewhere. His demeanour doesn't suggest that, hence his frustration a few times with soft free kicks that went against him. He was as involved as any of the front 3, you can criticise his decision making/end product but he didn't play like a player who didn't want to be here. Enough of them, perhaps, but totally writing off our chances of winning ANY of them?

They didn't beat us last season.

League 1, apparently. Will still be here next season.

Dean Smith 😂

Played with a casual nature as if he was on his Playstation. (at 2am)

Really mixed feelings, hard to escape the feeling that a draw isnt enough and with such a hard run in, I am not very confident. Thought performance wise we were as good as I can remember in quite a while. The change to a midfield 3 gave Wharton a bit more freedom and he was excellent as was Morton who was so much better deep in a 3. Rankin Costello was phenomenal, talk of moving him IMO is misguided as he offers us such a unique threat from right back. Brereton has got a lot of unfair stick but he was unlucky with a couple of decisions and was a constant threat, the front 3 lacked ruthlessness but you would hate to play against them. Leonard did more today than Vale either does in the league. The question is what do we do on Saturday. I would be tempted to stick with the same middle 3 and front 3 although there is a temptation to put in either Thomas or Hedges and move Szmodics central behind probably Brereton. I think I would stick with the 3. I think Kaminski deals with that first better and I hope he comes back in on Saturday, he is a better keeper. The centre backs were shaky again and I would be tempted to put Scott Wharton in v Hull.

The standard in general is piss poor really. You look through some of the players on show for both sides and it shows why a play off push is not quite the potentially incredible achievement that some make out, even allowing for question marks within our own team.

Does anyone know how ticket sales are going?

He hasn't scored for a while, not the player he was a couple of years ago.

He scored in all 3 games before the international break to be fair.
