I hate to sound churlish – and these are great offers don’t get me wrong – but I ain’t got kids (or at least not at that age), and any friends who might want to come to the match with me already have season tickets.
I’m not really getting any reward for my loyalty in buying a season ticket.
With a home Cup tie coming up maybe we will get something? Or perhaps not if gate receipts have to be split.
Have to say that for that Bolton game, which has been moved to a Monday night, I won’t be taking my 3 year old son, because it’ll be bloody freezing, and also, past his bedtime. (He’s got a season ticket anyway).
But what I’m saying is it’s not a great game for young ‘uns, is it?
Its not just the young ones vat! Those starting early or those finishing late miss the match and knowing that a lot of our fans work shifts it affects us!
Its bad planning! Plus in my eyes there should be no Monday matches when theres a full weekend!

Unfortunately the football clubs have taken the £££££ from Sky and ESPN, and will play when they tell them to play regardless of spectator wishes.
Think yourself lucky its a home game against a club 5 miles away. My lot were given 2 weeks’ notice last season that a Saturday game at Portsmouth was being switched to Monday night by Setanta.
Why only 15,000 flags. Surely a game against a club 5 miles up the road will sell out :?:
Listen here dickhead and i will explain what is wrong with moving the Bolton game to the Monday night.
The game is being played the Monday in Christmas week. Most peoples jobs peak at christmas, which leads to most firms putting a block on holidays in the month of December. People who work afternoon or night shift have no chance of getting time of work. That Monday for my workplace is the peak day of the whole year and so will be most distribition centres i.e ASDA who employ a shedload of people in Wigan and Skem. With the game only finishing about 5 to 10 it doesnt even give the night shift workers time to leg it from the ground and to work for 10.
Now sod of back to the Sunderland or fatties board where you might be wanted.
