Not got mine yet….tomorrow is another day as they say.
Car park season ticket for CP3…given up trying to get one. No one at the TO knows what’s going on whether they will be on sale or not. Pay on the day seems to be the only option.
Roll on Saturday; it’s been far too long since we were so rudely interrupted
A nice glass? Yeah right I’ll be drowning in the bloody stuff what a club this really is. I’m so proud so happy and later on so drunk. I love this club
I didn’t say how big the glass was
Anyway have a good one everyone.
I stuck my neck out on Tuesday and predicted we would stay up if Rochdale didn’t win at Wimbledon.
Sticking with that now! We don’t do things easy though so expecting a defeat at Hull sadly and either or both Rochdale and Northampton to win on Saturday.
Followed up with a nervy 1-0 against Swindon…job done.
We will stay up. Bottom line
We’ll lose at Dull and one or probably both Rochdale and Northampton will win so squeaky bum time on Sunday 9th
Nervy 1-0 to beat Swindon. Job done.
Alternative scenario and more in keeping with our barn storming (on field) performances in the last 2 seasons we win both games, others lose and we stay up 10 points clear
Tonight is the most important game of our season so far. The fact that we’re not even playing tells you everything about this season
A Wimbledon win or a draw will do nicely. Leaves us 5 or 4 points clear of the drop so 1 win = guaranteed safety.
Rochdale win and it’s back in the melting pot. We might have to win both our last games to stay up. Don’t fancy our chances at Hull.Ok I’ll stick my neck out what I reckon. Rochdale don’t win tonight we stay up
Rochdale win tonight we’ll go down 
Very pleased to be proved wrong on the 2nd point of course!!It also marks the 1st anniversary (well 7th is actually but near enough) of us being allowed in the audience.
Whoever could forget that dramatic, exciting, thrill a minute 0-0 against Luton? Well maybe not
Not a year any of us wants to repeat, football or otherwise.
Let’s face it, we are now just about kerry packered. We need a miracle now or the liquidation process will begin.
We need to prepare ourselves for the end
Tier 3 confirmed….so no one attending
Liverpool City region in Tier 2, so Liverpool/Everton will be allowed 2000 in, but Man U/City not. It’s not going to go down well!
There’s a feeling of detachment. Caused by a combination of not having been able to attend the ground for almost 9 months (and realistically unlikely to this side of Easter) and the manner in which the heart was ripped out of our club.
Yes, we’ve been relegated before, but always came back fighting. This feels totally different.
Even last season (so it’s not my age
) I could tell you who the next 6 games were against, Boxing Day, New Year, last game of the season etc, this season I have to look it up virtually game by game.Don’t get me wrong, when the day finally comes, I’ll be there but we will be down to the hardcore loyalists. Some would say that wasn’t a bad thing; it sure doesn’t feel like it at the moment.
How about allocating seats to season ticket holders in alphabetical order, that way fans from the same household could attend the match together.
Might work, but would the numbers add up ok?
Must admit as a “single” ST holder I’d not reckoned on the family groups of ST holders….so if there’s a family group of say 2 adults and 2 kids each with ST’s then they should be able to enter the ballot as a linked group. When any one of the 4 gets picked, the other 3 automatically get tickets for that game (and obviously all 4 are then removed for the next 3 ballots).
Talking to a mate earlier who reckoned it should be a straight ballot every match ie the first 2000 each time….he thought that was a great idea until I asked if he was ok with me being drawn out 4 games running and him not at all!!
No easy answer is there….reckon we’ll be in Tier 3 all season anyway so hypothetical
So if the near impossibility happens and we were allowed 2000 back, how would you go about allocating tickets?
My suggestion would be to use last season’s season ticket holder list (7500 or so??) as the starting point.So all ST holders could apply to enter a ballot for the first match. 2000 get lucky and the other 5500 miss out. Next match the first 2000 not eligible to enter, then it’s 2000 out of the remaining 5500 and so on until all ST’s (who want to enter the ballot) have been once. On the 4th round, put any spare seats on open sale, then the process starts again.
Any other suggestions?
It should be either all clubs can have crowds back or none can.It’s bound to cause arguments.Clubs will claim it’s an unfair advantage ,and rightly so ,if they can’t have crowds in and other clubs can.
Absolutely Phoenix. It compromises the integrity of the league (whichever division) when some clubs can have fans back and some not.
Just imagine the trouble if ManUre (in Trafford borough) were allowed 2000 in and City (in Manc) were not?
