Re: Season tickets next season
This is true. But that doesn’t make it right, or mean we have to accept that BFC has joined this club. There's a lot that's not right. If the players that earn more in a week than most of the supporters do in a year had a bit of community spirit and took a 5% pay cut, we could all go and watch for ...

Re: Season tickets next season
Well of course. I was referring to the new strategy of binning off the concessions to try and grab more cash. I'm a "legacy supporter". Every club would shift us out in a heartbeat if they could fill the stadium with cash-rich tourists. At some point it will get too expensive, or I'll tire of the P...

Re: Season tickets next season
The problem with season tickets, is that they don't actually bring that much in, whilst putting a strain on 10,000 supporters. They bring in less than £5m. That £5m that gets quickly spent in a 30 minute discussion about a transfer, and it's not really needed anymore, it's just greed. Plus matchday...

Re: Season tickets next season
Well yes, that’s what the owners are hoping will happen. That doesn’t make it the right thing to do in an ethical sense does it? They're still amongst the cheapest in the top 2 divisions and you have a choice not to buy one. Plus, if you're big on ethics, you're probably following the wrong sport.

Or there will be a lot of people prepared to pay the 9th lowest ST price in the Championship to gamble on this team playing some decent football at the top end of the Championship. And if we are, the walk-on's will take the spares.

Our view wasn’t ideal. So:
Was there goal offside (took an age to confirm)?
Was it a penalty (seemed harsh)?
Should Wharton have got a 2nd yellow?
Should our goal have stood?
