Typical of this forum, someone suggests a couple of players want to leave, then a dozen posts later the majority of the squad want away! It's not that far fetched when you consider Massive squad Relegation zone Getting beat every week Low wages (compared to rest of the prem) Lack of game time Most ...

I used to be quite involved in the running of an unnamed semi-professional club who play in National League South. It's not only money that players move for at that level. We had one of our better players leave to play 3 divisions lower at another local club because of the amount of free time he wo...

You think “most” kids under the age of 18 going on the turf aren’t old enough to enjoy the game ? Where are you getting this from ? My experience is nothing like that. Our group of season ticket holders have been bringing on our kids for the last 10 or 15 years and they all love it and have become ...

Would £700 be the dearest seats in the ground ? How much are season tickets for adults in the Beehole, Longside lower or Cricket ? I can't imagine any of them are currently around £500 which they would have to be to get near £700. Mine was £500 for the middle of the Longside upper. If they increase...

Would a ship that large not take a straight line to the gap it was going in for at least half a mile?
So if they lost power, it would still go on the right course?

Quickenthetempo

So £7 a game for an under 18 this season and if it went up say £30 next season it would still be around £7 a game. Do you think at that price it is over-priced ? The only trouble with increases to the u18s ST is most of the kids aren't old enough to enjoy the game/get their moneys worth. They are t...

Lv4 has sold out and took off sale.

Looks like they are trying to sell the restricted view tickets in lv1 and 2 before putting lv3 on sale.

Poor from both clubs.

Quickenthetempo

I know things have been bad this season CT, but labelling one of our fixtures as going to the dentist is a bit much.

Quickenthetempo

They must think losing thousands of ST holders will be cost effective if we're top of the league towards the back end of the season and start selling out at £50 a walk on?

Quickenthetempo

Only 3 singles left in lv4, so I expect Lv3 being put on sale tomorrow.

Anyone used the tram system in Sheffield? There is a large park and ride at Middlewood. Its not far off Hillsborough on the road in and looks a good option perhaps? Saves driving right in. I had a look at parking at Meadow Hall shopping centre one year. Trams and trains go into Sheffield from there...

Was the 2nil win there the New year's day game?

Plenty of Clarets still in their fancy dress outfits from the night before.

Just a warning for anyone using merseyrail for this game.
You will be fined and classed as having no ticket, if you haven't got a paper ticket printed before travel.

It catches plenty out.

I'm looking at megabus as a back up. Not much difference time wise if you match up with the x43.

Manchester works out fine, I did look from Preston. Despite their advert saying a 40 minute journey. No dates were available when I looked.
So I don't think they operate that route anymore.

I wouldn't get your hopes up, you have just bought tickets to Sheffield Wednesday

How would promotion ruin the club? What is the point of a club if they just exist and nothing more?

Costs would multiply.

Volunteers would need to increase massively.

Ground improvements would be costly.

No real scope for crowds to increase.

wonder what would happen if they got up to that standard - new ground surely

Who would pay for that?

No chance they get a new ground or promoted 3 or 4 levels, it would ruin the club.

Quickenthetempo

Down to 16 left in Lv4

Lv1 and 2 only have a handful of restricted views left.

Fag packet maths says around 1500 sold.

Quickenthetempo

Nearly 16 quid a game for parking is insane.

Get a taxi to drop you off at the door and back home for that.

The Chorlton fans that made the trip were quite vocal fair play to them I think the can bar helped them

You could here the football fans from my house in the centre of Padiham yesterday.
First time in a while I have noticed.

Jensen

C Roberts
Wayne Thomas
Branch
Les Thompson

Alan Moore
Hendrick
D Jones
George Boyd

Ashley Barnes
Chris Wood

Remember it's a devisive 11. They were loved by some and deemed not good enough by others.

Quickenthetempo

Alan Moore definitely split opinions

It's not a worst eleven remember.

I was hoping that by nominating the somewhat hapless Jensen (fans' favourite because they could shout "Beeeeeeast") it would give young Trafford a break

He might have been hapless at times, but he was certainly world class at others.

Quickenthetempo

Won 5-1

Quickenthetempo

Padiham 4nil up at half time.

Quickenthetempo

Only 30 tickets left in Lv4 (paddock)

Expect Lv3 to be onsale next week.

Quickenthetempo

They were just waiting as long as possible to see if we had a chance of staying up. Points deductions will have given them more hope.

If we stayed up then prices would definitely have gone up.
I don't think they are stupid enough to raise prices if we go down?

Quickenthetempo

Our season would have gone better if he stayed with us.

Great presser and link player.

Gets stick for missing chances and he could improve that side of his game.

But he would have won the ball high up the pitch for us and kept the ball up that end of pitch more. Giving our defence a bit more rest.

Quickenthetempo

As this has been the first season where ST holders have been able to re-sell their ticket for matches in exchange for club credit, I wonder if this is contributing to the delay? They're going to end up with all sorts of different ST prices based on early bird period, seat location, age and how much...

Has anyone found out anymore about the train situation?
Still says they are running on the app.

You're right, not sure when they switched back to under-21.

I'm glad they did.

I hated seeing young players staying in a system, where they weren't playing first team football, until 23.

They should try and move down the leagues and forge a career.

I thought we did and that was the team Bevan played for. Just realised he was actually playing today :lol: So no, doesn’t look like it. Good news was I was wanting to see him play & I have now :D Number 7, who I also thought looked decent. I’d have known he was playing if I’d not been too cold to t...

Looks a player to me. Even accounting for the age gap he looked quick, real turn of pace on him.

Love those wrestling events, kids love it too. I’ve been to one at the old leisure centre before, it’s all good for the kids.

This isn't a new thing unfortunately, it's been the happening for 10 years now. Over Jumps there's rarely a runner in the Irish National anyway - only the odd one makes the journey, but the English national is more worrying. However, if you peel back the layers, a number of the horses are irish tra...

If horses are winning at big prices, it's a surprise - and there's little money on them, or the price would collapse. If horses win having, shown no form, and then wins easily with loads of money applied - that's when they are investigated. If you want a good example of this, you can search Ronan M...

South West Claret said that Peter Loo.

As for Botman, that will weaken Newcastle, one of the teams we've got left to play as well.

Another with 2 accounts on the go.

Yes, great owners.

Who were rightfully praised at the time.

Their other offer of free kids places helped build our crowds as well.

I see Stoke have frozen prices for next seasons STs.

Well done them.

Bloody typical when we could get there for a tenner

Where does it say that?

Tickets are still on sale on the day

Muric was very impressive and deserved a 9.

The people giving him 10 balanced out the ones giving him 7s or 8s.

Maybe Umbro have cancelled the deal after losing money this season, with lack of sales?

I think the fact that kids broke into the ground last night and made a mess of the pitch hasnt helped looking at their recent social media posts

Where they 20 stone kids driving tanks over it?

Quickenthetempo

Very good striker of the ball and loved by the fans.

But the manager struggled to get him in a position within the team that suited him and the team.

We have the same problem now with Amdouni. So I don't think Vinny would sort things out for him.

The Circ and it’s sister bars on Bank Parade have all been put up for sale.

I think they have had quite a few break ins in the last year or so.
It will be soul destroying for the owners.

I think Colne need to put some money in to their pitch.

Looks a shocker.
