I'll be hoping for 2 tickets on general sale.

Last time we were they went to general sale but were sold out in the morning. Surprised with reasonable prices, plenty of southern based fans and 1st game back we didn't take the 3k

If buying second hand I'd check for whatever it is that you can mark it to check isn't stolen. Bikes got soo expensive, and loads are stolen and easy to sell on. I know the police can scan them, but probably a way to check. Also if you aren't using one currently, do you want to spend £1k plus and it...

Working for a pub chain now, and several semi linked pubs are struggling.

Unless food based or have a strong community really struggling.

Hate to think in 20 years where we'll be

Sign of the times that cheers finished, being based in a bar, and friends started, being based in a coffee house!

Shocking on how expensive some mortgages are for people with failed/ old banks with people trapped paying these rates. Sure current players earning alot more and shouldn't be in a similar situation (baring some bad financial decisions). https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/i-ll-pay-1m-over-25-years...

Big fan of kfc, however have had many bad experiences in different outlets. Still only a visit once a month/ every 2 months. Have our usual KFC place which is always good. Not sure why they're so different when have same suppliers/ recipes. Might be a little weird advert, but aren't many ads weird n...

Charity match in Pompey following Alan Knights diagnosis of prostate cancer. In partnership with the Barry Kilby Prostate Cancer appeal. He was my old next door neighbours step-dad, very nice normal bloke. Appreciate a fair distance for most on here, but for any more southern based clarets who might...

Its the architect Forster & Partners speaking over the video, so they have a big player on board. No doubt they could sell out every week. Good idea to have covered areas when it rains a lot, and you have tourists wanting to visit (and spend money). It will be interesting to see how funding works be...

People said it was a closed shop 10 years ago and more. As much as the gulf appears to widen, it doesn't take long for things to unravel via a key player injury/ manager leaving. 10 years ago QPR, Hull, WBA, Sunderland, Stoke, Swansea and Burnley were in the top flight. Plus Southampton and Leiceste...

I think we will need some serious improvements, but I don't agree that means spending lots. Recruitment generally seems poor across football. Ipswich paying over £10m for Muric seems ridiculous when they let Hladky go for nothing, even at the time it felt a lot. Do cheaper players get higher praise ...

Beer cans have always (since late 90s) been 440ml or 500ml, very few were pint cans (568ml) and were always much more expensive. They labelled crips and chocolate bars as 'sharing', when I don't think anyone ever shared them, just ate them all. Too many people spend too long sat down and eating unhe...

My dad was born in Burnley and started taking me when very young. Was odd living in north Kent supporting Burnley in the early 90s when no-one knew who we where! Went to many more matches with my dad, so not sure why my older brother was a mascot and I never was :? Now corrupting the future generati...

Slightly off topic (but not) got 3 chickens last year and do enjoy fresh eggs, cooked in soo many ways.

Was pondering if anyone else did anything similar but can't get a bit of pig for a few sausages

felt like quite a few more than 1,000 on, certainly sounded more

thankful for the opportunity for two local games, slightly frustrating they in the same week and in January/ February!

Anyone going by car, I haven't checked recently, however, on my last visit to St Mary's, I parked at Shamtock Quay. 3 hours free at the time. You have to input your car reg into their system but that's all. Saints fans use it too. Short walk to stadium. Not a quick exit. Shamrock shows as 2 hours f...

Has anyone experienced catching the train back from Pompey on a Saturday after a game? I've got a tight train connection between London Waterloo and St Pancras - but all depends on being able to catch a train from Fratton station after the match. I expect lots of people will try and catch the same ...

I know it is not going to happen, but if we had to play rovers in the playoff final, would it be moved to somewhere like the eithad or old trafford?

Play-off final would be at Wembley regardless of whos in it. Would feel sorry for the fans if a Boro Sunderland final though

Got mine yesterday too after ordering on Friday 10th. Posted down here quickly.

You can also book via Uber and get 10% credit back to use on taxis/ uber eats, and no booking fees. Not sure how they make money on this, and got 20% back on a flight before, but adds up and has its uses.

From a selfish point of view, Pompey one week, scummers the next, both as local as possible for me

Got myself three tickets.

Anyone know how they ID kids? Bringing the 13 year old, who's 14 in March, and got him a £6 under 14 ticket, however he's on the taller side and I don't want any issues at the gate.

After a match and assuming weather isn't awful I'd walk.

Trains don't move fast along that stretch of track so hardly worthwhile if you're able to walk. If you're feeling adventurous you can hire an ebike/ escooter...

Few recommendations as been here for 20 years. Outside-in food court - has lots of different street food in a large hall with a decent bar. King St tavern - great BBQ place, just down the road from the above. Rapscallions Southsea if you love Rum, near the beach and bar area with lots of other bars/...

Went in November, was amazing. To note it's an anniversary year so they expecting loads at the Vatican, so will be busy!

Book early as time slots for attractions will sell out.

Walked everywhere as stayed close to the main station. Soo much to see and do, enjoy

I think they should try the same as Have I Got News For You and have guest presenters.

Makes it a free hit and they can express their opinions. Different views from different supporting presenters. Brings a bit more colour and difference when there are soo many alternative highlight shows.

Cider, I can thoroughly recommend the Bearded Brewery up near Newquay Airport

I was there! Discovered it 5 or so years ago by chance, and had to go back. Bag each of peach and mango cider brought home.

Peach cider has a great image on the front

was in Cornwall last week and had 3, all were good but none great. Will make a note to research before going next time.

However did find the cider good everywhere

Can't remember the stats but Paris put in a silly large order for ice (for ice baths), soo much that no one could supply it.

No medical evidence to support it being good for you, but clearly loads of people do it and report benefits

I finally got three chickens the other weekend, which are gaining lots of attention at the front.

And it's caught on, as someone else in my team now has three too!

In a plastic cage (with run) so hopefully no bad news impending from the curious foxes.

Divorce was tough financially for me as a dad. She wanted to stay in the house, but luckily agreed to pay the small mortgage. Meant all my equity frozen for years, and that hassle. Luckily she decided not to pay the mortgage, so it got sold just before repossession, and I got my half. Maintenance is...

£350k seems a decent pension at early 50's. I feel lucky to think by 60 I'd be mortgage free and with circa £250k in my pension, and earn a decent wedge. Guess I'd have more if not for the 1st wife, but that's another story. Do think state pension should be removed for some - now how you calculate I...

I live 10 miles from Fratton Park, and know a lot of supporters. They have certainly been through the mill in the last 10-15 years! IF we go down, will be a good local trip for me, and as per LeadBelly, my last trip there was our 5-1 win. Southampton have two massive games at Leicester and Leeds in ...

I congratulate marketers for having people pay an annual subscription for a door bell! I'm still in my 30s, and can see it might have uses, but not for me.

realistically you'd fancy wolves over Coventry, and Leicester have a chance at Chelsea, but under 50%. Even if they both won, they'd be joined in the semi-finals by City & Liverpool/ Utd. They'd likely lose to either, and if drawn against each other, Leicester would be favourites, who should be prom...
