Game and team selection today sacrificed in order not to set a precedent, and nothing more, by which I mean the only reason Henderson was picked for the squad, never mind started, was to avoid the possible future problem of a genuinely world class England player of the calibre of Kane or Saka or Be...

Arguably the best front 6 in the world and this is where we’re at Southgate out.

So a ST holder who hasn't been to any previous away games should be on a par with one who's been all over the country supporting the Club?

Lol, he’s got to be on a fishing trip.

A Mon night trip to a tv game ? was never gonna be high demand tbf and Newcastle a fair round trip though I’d imagine will sell out .

Forest was not on tv until recently, first league away game for ages, massive demand last season. Shame it’s not gonna sell out.

We’ve just arrived in Lindos, here for a week. Boiling hot clear blue skys but the pilot did mention having to navigate a ‘weather system’ elsewhere in Greece.

Wonder how many supporters have now joined the £250 queue jumping membership scheme?

Be pretty pointless given the members allocation should only be 67

Granny WeatherWax

>2800 now

Granny WeatherWax

Last season when they just said 'priority order' they just meant the one that had been used all season - 6000 points. So could well be just 2000 points for this one.

All those prevented from going previously by the old scheme due to not having enough loyalty points may have been put off after a defeat

There will defo be some of people only going to away games last year as they knew we were likely to win

Granny WeatherWax

I'm surprised to be honest, thought this one would fly out. Looks like club could get stung for this game and Forest.

Granny WeatherWax

I don’t think it’s that Kompany doesn’t rate him, but more that Ekdal isn’t best suited to the man-for-man-on-the-halfway-line approach we’ve taken to defending so far. That approach clearly needs binning and we need to be more disciplined and compact without the ball. I only wish Ekdal was availab...

Granny WeatherWax

Good news, better than feared.

I’m not sure Kompany rates him.

Granny WeatherWax

i wonder if that influences what day our game is on

Granny WeatherWax

First 3 blocks nearly gone, assume they will add the other blocks soon

Granny WeatherWax

Will take time. Has to play a midfield 3 and has to be less dogmatic about playing out from the back against the better sides.

Granny WeatherWax

2 central midfielders in our best 11, aye alright.

Granny WeatherWax

The system last Season relied heavily on us having most of the possession. We defended simply by not allowing the opposition to have the ball. That won't work as well this season, likely even against mid table sides. We need to find a new way of playing We set up with 3 in midfield. We’ve set up mo...

Then we need a different style or system so we don’t get mauled every week

Get back to the system we used last year, but unfortunately we didn’t sign a left back.

Granny WeatherWax

the gaps are HUGE, there wont be a team that wont pick us off in this league. Considering VK was a defender I'm struggling to comprehend the lack of organisation Too much change too quickly. 100% guarantee the team that finished last season don’t do as badly as that mess we’ve seen in the last 3 ga...

He will now bin the nonsense that is 5 at the back

We just need to get back to two midfielders in front of Cullen and the inverted full back.

Hard to criticise but Kompany has lost the plot.

but you did

I understand about the possible 50 points game - wasn't that just the Europa League qualifier? I went to that, got 10 points allocated. I was just saying that you're statement above isn't true.

LOL x 2

Granny WeatherWax

That's just not true. The default number of points if you only have a Season Ticket is 1750, that means over 5 years you will have needed 25 additional games, cup games or away games to make up to the 2000 points. I dont think we have had enough cup games in the past 5 years to be 25 games alone, s...

If you have people who don't go to away games but can buy in the first priority period then the new system is an absolute pi$$ take.

More people than eligible under old system. Makes no sense. Understand it helps coaches get filled though which is important.

Interestingly on this video the lad shouts ‘Birmingham internationals’ and the accent doesn’t sound very Burnley.

Birmingham international was wrote on the side of the coach. The scumbag is probably just practicing his year 3 English language.

Total ****. Making national news again for wrong reasons.

Granny WeatherWax

He’s the least of our problems.

Granny WeatherWax

Mine worked all game. Three.

Granny WeatherWax

Very naive today by Kompany I thought. Cullen was often very isolated, with the other 4 midfielders playing very high. Needs 2 of Berge/Brownhill/Ramsey with Cullen in there. Also way too much change too soon, by playing so many new players the invincibility feeling built up last season is automatic...

Granny WeatherWax

Has anyone received their tickets yet?

Granny WeatherWax

I hope the club don’t use this game as an indication for decisions on future away allocation.

Given it’s 3 weeks after the cup game, midweek and 3 times more expensive it’s quite likely we will get stung if it’s sale no return.

It'll be 2200 for low allocation/high demand games.

How many people have over 2,200 points?
