That would be the problem but im sure if marketed right and with the ticket office/shop in the centre now im sure we could get a few floating fans!
Its colder in the east than the west!
As you all know i sent in a Dossier of ideas that i collated from the fans a lot of which are now being used by the club (although they say these ideas were already planned).
Now as a season ticket holder i understand why people are peeved with the offers but i used mine and other tickets i got to let a few friends that this year have been unable to get season tickets (because of being unemployed), the chance to see the team. So i dont feel like ive missed out although it would be nice for all the season ticket holders to get a xmas card or calender in the post (even a invite to a open day)….but thats not going to happen!
For those that dont know in the Fa cup the money from tickets are split 50/50 with the other club after costs are taken out. This gives 2 prem clubs like us a chance to show what the fans actually mean. Personally if i was chairman i would make it £1 tickets for season ticket holders and £5 each for non season ticket holders. This includes Hull fans. Then id make the south stand free for Kids if accompinied with a adult. Neither club needs the money and after costs the money could be split 50/50 between a charity in Hull and a charity in Wigan! The press it would generate would be fantastic and even in Whelans eyes having the “DW” stadium mentioned all over the world would be a fantastic boost for his business!
Now another idea for the club would be to offer the wings of the west and east (apart from ES1) to unemployed/pensioners season tickets at a reduced rate of say £99 on a first come first served basis. They always seem to be empty and the views arent great so by doing this they would be filling up the stands, gaining extra income and generating good press. In my opinion they wouldnt lose any current season ticket holders as not many would want to move from there seat and it would give people who are laid off a chance to still support the team!
Yeah but my dad used to be heavyweight champion of the world so now what you gunna do!
*Thinks “please dont ask who cos its glass jaw bruno”*
Go on then ST how big are you?
Im with Vat on this! This website was getting back to its best till you popped up!
We dont need petty arguements or wind ups on a board like this, we need banter and football knowledge!
Saying that though i still think im the cock of the board!*
* Thats sarcasm in case you cant tell!
What can i say!lol!
I dont mind a bet at the footy but im not one for having a bet just for having a bets sake!l
Probably heard that you couldnt make it Griff!
Im thinking of goin myself! I know a few people that work with Liverpool and theyve said theres some good kids knocking about including: Kelly, Darby, Spearing, Valle and Pacquio. I hope Bobby goes and takes a look when its played to see if theres any worth taking!
Kilford played midfield didnt he? Or have the years tainted my memory!
Steve Mcmillan was too injury prone and Bainsey was raw at the time!
Infact i think id take leighton over Figgy if it was offered! I wonder if wel go back there if sunderland come sniffing!
Ive been there myself!
The weekend Man Utd lost at Turfmoor id done a £1 accumulator on a pile of matches and i mean about 30 plus!
Low and Behold the one result that let me down was Man utd. However in the meantime i had a email saying that they would only have a liabilty of 250,000 on the bet anything over that they wouldnt pay out!
I also had another one on for 18 grand which was let down by us beating chelsea although i wasnt too bothered!
Im not a gambling man incase you cant tell!
Now that reminds me of the good old CL days!
But who is our best leftback?
Actually scratch that!
Oh and did we ever decide if it was Bainsey or Mcmillan?
Its mind games! Bent will play!
Its a completly different kettle of fish Sunderland! For one Andy Reid has got no pace! Even if he does always seem to play well against us!
