  1. If it is anything serious then it will have a massive and potentially even terminal impact on our hopes of promotion. Bloody international break.
  2. The team will get a good turn out again with already over 1k sold. It isn' that the team doesn't deserve it if we don't sell out.
  3. No but coaches were subsidised and people who cannot attend every away game are always likely to cherry pick games they would prefer to go to, that doesn't need to be spun into outrage. I presume you have attended every away game this season which is fine, fair play if so. Sadly you arent on your own with such rubbish. Twitter is full of people spouting similar drivel, often teenagers living with their parents with minimal outgoings on cheaper tickets and with no responsibilities. Do I deserve a play off chasing team in your eyes? I was in Sheffield, the only other away games that I have done this season were the local ones, Burnley, Blackpool and Wigan. I have a season ticket but I took one look at the trains for Birmingham and decided against it. I will probably do 2 more away games including Preston but would struggle to afford any more, even they are a push at the moment.
  4. Just general qualification, boring. We all know we will qualify for a tournament especially now they are so big, its just going through the motions and for most fans waiting for club football to return.
  5. 😂 deary me. I know it wasn't, its just a question. Never mind.
  6. But surely there would have been a price this summer that might have made you think twice. £500? £600? £750? £1000? £2000?
  7. It will be quoted as not being a punishment but wheb senior players have played for the under 21s, it is usually either after an injury, poor form (Travis, Buckley etc) or for fringe players who could do with minutes. So whilst it is not strictly a punishment, the most important players we have who play most weeks at any time wont be asked to do so unless they are recovering or if their form nosedives to the point that they get dropped.
  8. A big proportion of people see an away game as an opportunity to make a day of it, have a few drinks with their mates etc. So even if they can drive, a % would not see that as an alternative. You mean YOU prefer to drive to games.
  9. "You need to get used to the fact that it has not been a 3pm Saturday kick off sport for 30 years."
  10. Of course, the World is against us.
  11. Especially in an international break, its just to get minutes in their legs im sure. Wharton has just come back from injury so especially for him. No idea why they bother with Mola mind you, a player so clearly out of his depth.
  12. This literally could not have been more sarcastic 😂 yet still assumed and taken as you genuinely advocating risking your health for a football match. Bet you wish you hadn't have bothered!
  13. How dare they talk about something as trivial as a huge conflict that has caused such damage when they could be doing an extra 5 minutes on repeating interviews with Southgate! I wish they would talk a bit more about the actual Ukrainian side to be honest. A quick minute on one or two players and back to England again.
  14. I don't take much notice of a under 21 game in which senior players will be using it just to tick over, but I don't think he has been anything special this season and he is only a squad player at the moment with Rankin Costello and Pickering ahead of him. "One of the best full backs in the league" has been said about him before by our fans, not for me as things stand.
  15. It's an absolute joke when mapped out like that with those statistics.
  16. If it is the case that our current youngsters that haven't yet made the first team are not a particularly good standard then that will happen at times, the likes of Adam Wharton and Ash Phillips have made the step up, I just hope these targets mentioned by Broughton don't lead to us promoting players anyway regardless of quality.
  17. If you are basing value on attending every game then your target market massively shrinks. Even if it is a case of a holiday, a lot of people will miss at least a game or two.
  18. A week to sell 800 otherwise we will have to give up our play off hopes.
  19. It's a league at a much quicker tempo with much more physicality and ultimately quality. No way would he thrive more.
  20. If you can attend every single game, and most will miss at least one or two games a season as a minimum. I don't think that is cheap even in isolation for one game of the standard of Championship football, but obviously that price only stands when you buy 23 at once.
  21. Your last two lines are hilariously contradictory, even for you. The post I quoted implied that we don't deserve a side fighting for the play offs if we don't fill the away end at Birmingham. That is really ignorant and provocative bollocks. There are so many factors to consider, a big one of which is the cost in the current climate including travel etc, especially with issues surrounding train strikes and costs. To suggest that people will just "find a way" if they want to go is equally as ignorant. For example, ideally I would go but I won't be doing mainly due to cost. A Wharton is with the England youth setup.
  22. It is probably based on what has happened in the past numerous times, therefore was a very fair assumption. £20 off and your first thought before barely anyone has posted (and those who have have been positive) is to childishly mock, as if anyone who is buying will be annoyed that they will be paying slightly less.
  23. Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandes and Ruben Dias would get into our team, likely Joao Cancelo too. I think Neves v Rice would be a judgement call.
  24. What meaningless and provocative nonsense, especially amidst a cost of living crisis.
