A good save by the keeper. Fair play to him…
Yeovil penalty was weak.
But both times he hit the target. That’s the first rule of taking a penalty (Chris Waddle anyone
)Maloney number 1 choice if he’s fully fit. Jordi won’t let us down when it really matters ;)
Whilst it is disappointing not to score a penalty, especially that late on, this is exactly the type of game we were loosing under Coyle.
Good set of results otherwise, Ips/Forest drawing, Reading & QPR likewise.
Automatic promotion is all but gone, but was always going to be a long shot. 8 games to go, 5 at home….only ourselves to blame if we don’t nail down a play off spot. I still say if we get in the play offs we will win it…big match experience, big match players….Jordi won’t miss a penalty when it really matters :cheer:
Small, but good staff and reasonably priced
The staff were vertically challenged and were for sale? :ohmy: Sure that’s against the law these days???[/quote]
:) You need to know where to shop[/quote]
I’ve heard about those sort of shops; illegal for certain :ohmy: As ever we will bow to your superior knowledge Griff :lol:
I cant make Saturdays game so my wife has agreed to drop off and pick up my 13 year old son and his mate at the Reebok stadium on Saturday.
Anybody know if she is ok to park at the Middlebrook for the duration of the game and do a bit of shopping or is it like Robin park were she risks getting a ticket, many thanks in advance.If she’s parked on there for shopping (and has receipts) then how would the parking Stazi know she was there for match purposes as well ;) :lol:
I used to work near the Reebok a few years back. We were allowed to use Asda car park as an overspill…not Tescos.
Bottom line is private parking tickets are unenforceable for a number of legal reasons. You can chuck them in the bin along with any letters “inviting” you to settle up to avoid court…These people are vermin and can be treated as such.
Have a look at http://www.pepipoo.com for further advice.
Made up managed to get the exact same 3 seats we had for the Final. :cheer: :cheer:Quite a painless process as well. Beats the hell out of queueing in the pissing rain and the cold for 6 hours !!!! :(
Sure does…
Sorted by 12.25. Took a few minutes to get logged on but straightforward enough. 2 tickets block 501 £50…12 rows lower down than we were for the final…2 blocks nearer to half way line.
We are showing under Uwe we have what it takes to get out of this league. They don’t call it the hardest league in the world to get out of (upwards) for nothing….
We conceded a soft goal against the run of play. Not to panic though, we knew we would hit back….
Last winning run was 8…this winning run I’ll settle for 7 ;)
I walked past the ticket office about 6.15 earlier.2 people with a tent and two chairs already int queue
Methinks there in for a long cold night
Don’t they realise we go to Wembley ever year :woohoo:
But as Sharpys closed in February have the club failed to honour this potential ‘perk’ for the rest of the season!A consequence of Holt leaving; the effect on the takings at Sharpy’s :ohmy:
Announced today…£40 for Leicester, Leeds and Millwall games.
Good move, £13.33 a game when they’re coming thick and fast, or should that be fast, slow and thick ;)
Good to see the club trying to get bums on seats at the business end of the season. So long as no individual ticket is sold for less than a ST holder has paid per game. I paid £315 for WS4 block 26 games…£12.12. What was the cheapest ST this season?
Why not? You bought a season ticket that gave you your guarenteed seat at a price that you were presumably happy with, along with preferential treatment when it comes to ticket sales for cup and away games, etc. It doesn’t give you the right to dictate how the club should sell tickets for other seats.[/quote]
Indeed, the decision to purchase a season ticket, on pricing grounds, is taken in comparison with individual ticket prices as announced at the time.
The problem comes if say 6 months down the line, the club sells individual tickets for less than ST holders paid. This offer has it spot on, a good deal for non ST’s but still a bit more expensive than ST’s paid. 3 home games in a week is a lot to pay out when the extras add up.
As you say, there are other advantages to season tickets to take into account. Not forgetting the 10% discount at Sharpys :lol:
I wouldn’t dream of dictating how the club sells tickets…but all ST holders have a choice to renew or not. I will be there next season of course, but ST renewals are likely to drop if we’re still in the Championship.
Tonight was disappointing and agree it’s 2 points dropped given the defensive errors and missing a penalty. Loosing Perch early didn’t help obviously.
That said, with so many games in such a short space of time, there was bound to be a poor result somewhere. Let’s hope tonight is the only one and move on for Saturday.
On the bright side, QPR lost and with the compacted fixture list we’ve got to pick ourselves up and get on with it. Dropping points to Yeovil, whilst it looks bad at first glance, isn’t ultimately going to cost us as much as dropping points to teams around us. Let’s win at QPR instead :)
Home game for the Gunners then, just how we like it,out numbered were at our best. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:Yes. When all 22807 of us are singing about being the FA Cup
ChampionsHoldersWinners….the Cockneys will be quaking in their boots…or more likely pissing themselves laughing :ohmy: The latter when we start the chant we learned from our Belgian friends.Arsenal used to play their Champions League games at Wembley a few years back, but Wenger would winge like hell about us having an unfair advantage if the game was at Old Trafford.
4 weeks to go…can’t wait B)
I think 22k for us is fine, we only took about 20k to last years semi.How many season ticket holders are there this season?
Between 9 & 10k at a guess. Hence the guarantee of 2 tickets per ST holder…still be 4-5k min left over for general sale.
I can’t go on Sunday next week anyway due to family commitments….so quite happy to log on Monday 9am B)
What’s the plans for where to sit for those who’ve been to all 3 visits? Do you stay in the same area or move around the ground? We’ve been in 105 (Semi), 503 (final), 103 (CS). 541 also on “another visit” last year… :blush:
Quite fancy the upper tier behind the goal this time…
Last year we sold about 20,000 of our 31,000 allocation. That’s not a bad turnout for the time and place.
Millwall sold all their tickets – their fans could get there by Tube and be home in time for tea.
The club & FA never revealed how many tickets they’d sold for the semi-final but if you think how full the same areas were for the final when Latics took an initial allocation of 21,000 (allegedly took some of the other 4,0000 they had an option on) as opposed to how empty they were for the semi-final, I don’t think that there was anywhere near 20k Latics fans there for the Millwall game.
Not that it matters coz I was there & no doubt virtually everyone on here was there but looking at last year’s semi-final & how many were shifted for the final I think we’ll take somewhere between 15k-20k to the Arsenal game[/quote]
Hopefully 20k minimum.
Last year quite a few people were put off going by it being Millwall and confidence that we would get to the final.
20k is pretty respectable though, given the KO time and travelling distance. How many will not travel because it’s on ITV this year :ohmy:
Quite a few Millwall fans last year admitted they wouldn’t have sold 31k had it been at Old Trafford…we might well have done!
