  • in reply to: Semi Final ticket sales #129417

    From what I recall, London is a picturesque place – more of a hamlet than a village, the sort of place you see on a postcard, so with all these northerners coming down, I hope we don’t impact too greatly on their traditional, rural way of life. Parking near the village green is a bit limited, so they may need to enlist the help of a PCSO from a neighbouring town to help out.

    Promotion for me too. We used to moan about being last on MOTD all the time, but at least we were on it. To be up there on merit with the big teams week in, week out makes wet December midweek games in Sheffield worthwhile.

    Have to take my 3 year old this time – either that or home alone all weekend. That’s 1 extra than was at the cup final. Hope there’s a creche in there.

    in reply to: Bolton parking #129083

    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.

    Pepipoo is a great site and you are right – the PPC’s are vermin with their fake ‘penalty charge notices’, but the basic advice on the forums over the last year or so is not to ignore the private parking ticket, but to challenge through POPLA.

    At least it showed why you shouldn’t leave 10 minutes early to beat the traffic.

    in reply to: Rooney deal £300,000 per week #127665

    Rooney £300K or Holt £20k (ish). Different universe but who is better value…

    in reply to: rosler resigns #124495

    Very pleased at his appointment. Suspect there’ll be some Brentford fans thinking it’s a sideways move at best, but as someone said on another thread – much better a manager on the way up than one going the other way. Anyhow, in anticipation of us potentially losing at least one game over the next few seasons he’s hopefully here, may I be the first to say “Rosler Out”.

    in reply to: Bugger #124084

    There’s a rotund gentleman in ES4 – wears the same trousers every game – gets quite irate at every misplaced pass. Made himself a ‘Martinez Out’ banner a year or two back. He’s probably been to Asda to buy some new crayons today…

    in reply to: Coyles view #124083

    Holt and Fortune in the same line up? It’d be like playing with 9. Powell may not be a striker, but I’d much rather have him up there.

    in reply to: Days Are Numbered ! #122717

    Normally I’ve quite a bit of time/sympathy for Gomez. I don’t mind him blazing the ball over the bar like he did last night as at least he’d got into a scoring position and even our well liked forwards are allowed to miss now and again. However, just before that, in front of ES3, there was a 50/50 ball and he appeared to pull out of a tackle. Hopefully, just an error of judgement, but deep down I wonder if he just didn’t fancy it. Obviously, we’ll never know, but if got me thinking too that maybe he’s on his way.

    Bryan Adams is still No 1.

    in reply to: Safe Journey Everyone #121183

    Letters delivered to the kid’s schools today to say they won’t be in tomorrow. 5am start for us. Feels a bit like christmas eve as a kid. Never thought I’d see this.

    in reply to: columbus crew y’all #116778

    Prices from $23 – for a friendly! And with a 7.30pm kick off time, we’ll never get the last train back to Wigan. Coyle out…

    in reply to: fergie to retire….. #113033

    This talk of him retiring is a bit premature – he’s got another 4 years injury time yet.

    in reply to: Premature but who would your next manager be ? #113032

    If we ignore the Preston links, David Moyes could be out of a job within 6 months…
