just a thought but we are still being affected by the result of relegation, had we stayed up we wouldn't have been subject to the reduce losses that the EFL impose, the fact we went back up and were relegated again will also be facted in as well. so i think the figure will quite a way north of the 1...

what now !

there is a down side to us winning our next 2 games, the likelihood is that if we do that that Leeds will be promoted with us , it is an acceptable down side in that the main aim is getting promoted and this may be controversial but i would rather Leeds than Sheff utd get promoted with us

what now !

i have to say i did notice the goal music didn't start the second the ball went in the net against Luton plus at the end of the game the music didn't start immediately either , you they have been reading this thread or was they guy doing something else and forgot to press play !!!

they haven't gone on sale yet ,

i rang the ticket office yesterday and asked they said they hadn't had an allocation through from Derby which they were expecting last week, so they would get that this week to go on sale Monday 17th

from what i understand from reading different things , Man u will pay for the stadium but the rest of the area will be developed with public money as for parking, a lot park at the trafford centre and get the tram so i guess that will be upgraded, i normally park at media city and walk across to the...

what now !

if we match sheff utd's results and beat them then we get promoted its as simple as that , just need to keep winning where we can and not losing then we will be fine. Leeds look like they might be having a wobble and it will be getting in their heads , remember 2 games ago they were 5 points clear o...

i would be happy if we had the same ammount of 0-0 draws in the prem next season that we have had this season we might stand a chance of staying up

what now !

i wasn't saying it could be goal music i was saying an anthem before the start of the game. i note comments such as 'cringe worthy' and 'tin pot' yet no meaningful suggestions as to what could be used as an anthem . i agree that we shouldn't go back to goal music i think its had its day but to sugge...

what now !

we wont get anywhere near that record if we go up, how many clean sheets do you think we will keep in the prem ??

what now !

i think both will play and i think it will be fireworks, i suspect Hannibal will get dogs abuse from the Preston fans, but i think this will drive him , i would hazard a guess he will score and have a T-shirt on underneath with a message on , also Burnley should warm up with no to racism t shirts on...

what now !

i am sure there will be discussions with Egan Riley about a new contract but if not i would expect in the region of £10 million at a tribunal Esteve probably £40 mil that's what Everton reportedly offered in the last window so maybe a touch more and Trafford about the same i was surprised we got £42...

the ball he played for Anthony to cross for our second against Hull was sublime !! new song idea especially for Leeds fans everywhere !!! he's in your head , in your head , hannibal hannibal hey hey hey ( repeat ) ( to the tune of Zombie by the cranberries ) or has this already been suggested somewh...

we only on i-player which affects the TV money , read something on the Lancashire post ( i think) that said (in years gone by ) the TV channels pay £125k for terrestrial TV but i-player only games the teams only get £55k , doesn't seem fair to me but hey its not like city or utd need more money is i...

The nearest connection to a local band is Milltown Brothers, Chumbawumba at a push, and we've used Tubthumping in the past. Personally, I'd love Here I Stand by Milltown Brothers, just a good tune (was also the theme to All Quiet on the Preston Front) https://youtu.be/FI0zBg8k7DY?si=Gq_FI86wep2gUls...

i hate to say this but i think it will be Bournemouth or Brighton away , but i would love PNE at home !! as long as its not City again

what now !

I get what people are saying about where we could or couldn't finish and how many points we might need to get but what a lot of people are missing is the remaining opponents for each of the challengers, we only have to play Sheff utd out of the top 4 where as sheff utd have to play Boro at home then...

it was an amazing goal i bet it is one of his favourites

there are so many good cover version the obvious ones that spring to my mind are jealous guy by roxy music and sound of silence by distrubed, although falling in reverse do an amazing cover of papa roach's last resort and i just discovered family man by hall and oates is actually a mike oldfield son...

what now !

I like the return of Barnes - but when people talk about his impact on the dressing room it has to be said that there a lot of the players now at the club who have never played with him. yes, you are right, probably half the dressing room at least, but he is club legend and those that have played w...

what now !

if those coach numbers are right ( 12 supporters club coaches and 14 club coaches) , by my reckoning that leaves a minimum of 2,300 making their own way there. trains are going to be busy !!!

what now !

Barnes coming back is a good move from a PR perspective, gets the fans on side as a hero returns ( well a good chunk of them) , winds that lot up down the road wondering if he will torment them again, and just referencing what was said about Barnes in the documentary he was a big part of the dressin...

what now !

i'll say it again, it matters not financially if they gave him the money or not as they allocate £500 per game and it rolls over, but its the bad PR that came with the decision, the booing was from all 4 sides of the ground which wasnt a good look for the club , i suspect thats why they have paid hi...

what now !

i am in the 'pay the lad the money' camp. its not as though the club is paying it out it will be the sponsors, and if it goes up by £500 each game then if they had paid it out this week it would have been back down to £500 for the next game instead i suspect it will £2500 now so financially it makes...

i had the same problem , i reassigned my second ticket to my daughter but the confirmation had my number for both, i rang the ticket office and they said it wouldn't be a problem , then i got an email stating what had happened, i simply had to reply with the clarets number for my daughter so hopeful...

Fairly obvious what he means.

if had been obvious i wouldn't have asked.

what now !

I think pretty much sums up the issue. If you make the definition of loyalty an emotive one then you just go round in circles as with your example and others people are using it’s very difficult to decide either way who is the most loyal. I’ve supported the club for 50 years too and probably had a ...

what now !

My point is “loyalty” is the same for every fan, no matter their circumstances, age or anything. You were the one starting nonsense say our coffin dodgers are more loyal and they wouldn’t be a club for the younger ones to even support, never mind get a ticket for. i wonder if when you are in your l...

I think their financial situation may alter their mind set.

in what sense? that they will need the money so we will get 7,300 or that they would rather take the hit just to spite us like they did 2 years ago ?

what now !

like i said it is called a loyalty scheme so that sort of gives it away. in any case , i think we have only sold 1 of our away games out this season and that was Leeds so all that want a ticket should be able to get it ok well we will just have to disagree that some fans are less loyal than others ,...

what now !

you are being presumptuous that the said fan was retired and had nothing to do with his time, imagine for a minute they worked 40 hours a week took the time of work to travel to every game , same as the guy that can only get to 5 away games a season. who would you say was more loyal. i will leave it...

Best defensive start in 100 years in the 2nd tier and this thread starts moaning about how Boro will score past us. <shakes head> <logs off>

what now !

What nonsense this “loyal” talk is. Doesn’t mean you’re more loyal because you’ve been around longer or you go to more games. Every fan is “loyal’, that’s why the support that team and always will. why is it called loyalty scheme then ?? they are only loyal til they stop which would be a good perce...

Said this many times on here before but there’s only one system that is truly fair. Priority for all ST holders, then general sale. Never heard a decent argument against it. for the sake of devilment, i will have a go ........... so i buy a season ticket in the summer for the season now, and i have...

the great wall lol

its causing absolute mayhem coupled with the junction upgrades in Rawtenstall centre it can take my wife 45 minutes some days to travel 2 miles !!!

and the town centre works are scheduled until May 25 !! considering changing my route to the turf will see how i go tonight

Young people are entitled aren't they? Older generation - "hold my beer" On the topic of using others numbers. I think the current system goes someway to resolving it, but unfortunately people with a lot of points based on others using their number is deep rooted. There's no hard evidence for how m...

what now !

well i saw that Sunderland have been given an allocation of 7,300 for boxing day , which they will no doubt sell out, couple that with the same allocation for Leeds a few games earlier. i can see us not getting over 3000 as they will take the financial hit as they will have sold over 14,000 tickets ...

what now !

i disagree with the idea that a 20 year old that has been watching games for 5 years is a more loyal fan than someone who has been watching for the last say 40 years. if the fan in his 50's-60's hadn't gone to all the games they went too , bought a season ticket every year whilst the club wasn't suc...

what now !

The exposure thing is a nonsense, the majority of games moved this season (plus midweek games) are not on the main channel but on the red button. There aren't hordes of people queuing up to watch Burnley on the TV, when several other EFL games are on, plus the possibility of a Premier League fixtur...

what now !

This is the reason I did not purchase a season ticket this season, I live about 2 hours away and can not make evening games due to my job…so I was not willing to take the gamble that there would be enough home games on a Saturday/Sunday (decent time) to make it worth my while…I feel vindicated in m...

what now !

it always makes me smile when people complain about fixtures being moved from 3pm Saturday , its not like it has only just started this season its been going on for decades now so we should be used to it and its not like they have only given you 1 weeks notice, January is the best part of 2 months a...

That river wall works has been on & off for 3 years now, a mate who lives nearby said it'd collapsed back into the river twice :o yeah its different bits that keep collapsing , this one looks a lot worse than the others they probably need to repair the full length but that would take for ever and c...

what now !

i did say hat they said it wasn't on tv at the time they announced the fixture change but good that they have now put it albeit via the red button

what now !

If it’s a red card outside the box then it would also be a red card if the same offence was committed inside the box. no it wouldn't be a red inside the box as that is double jeopardy i think the only reds inside the box are for dogso either a foul or a handball on the line although i may be wrong ...

what now !

yeah our fixture against Swansea was moved because of the Thursday kick off, and they said at the time it wouldn't be on the TV.

what now !

at least we aren't in the same boat as say man utd fans, i have a mate who goes to quiet a lot of utd away games, they sometimes get an email saying they have to attend the away ground an hour before kick off with photo id to collect the tickets from a club rep or they dont get in the ground this is...

what now !

But how would a football club get hold of around 18000 faces? it won't need too it will only look for the faces in the database , ie people on banning orders or wanted for offences or whatever parameters they set, most of the 18,000 wont even know they have been scanned just like with CCTV , its ba...

haha must have made it up then !!

oh yeah missed the Sunderland one,

is every mid week game on sky sports+ ? good if that's the case but I'm sure there was one that wasn't that i couldn't get to, or have I just made that up in my head !!!

what now !

That doesn’t make a difference. People won’t make a trip midweek and then another to go on the game. They’d still turn up at 2.30 with another load of people in the queue then whinging they’re missing kick off. i used to call in regularly on my way home from work to collect mine , cant do that now ...
