Sounds like quite the night.

Yep close to a flying hotel room some of them

 

[Gibbo]

Start Wright and if he tires bring on Simms. Surely?

Yep unless he has a niggle or tired and then Lampard would leave it him

He'll be raring to go

 

[Alex1987]

seems a missed opportunity not to open the ticket exchange?

Selling hospitality I reckon

 

[JSL]

They have announced ticket exchange now on FB

 

[SkyBlueMatt]

It'll be interesting to see how many get put on. I've seen about a dozen, mostly singles.

It's a win / win, they would have been an empty seat otherwise, more money to the club and they get a free pie and pint next time.

They should double count those tickets that sell, so we can have a new record attendance.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Brilliant that we have the exchange running this early in the season
Special times

 

[Great_Expectations]

Start Wright and tell him he has 60 mins to put maximum effort in, then give Simms the last 30.

Unless it’s all gone terribly wrong and we’re behind.

 

[Gleneagles65]

Leave it to Lampard. He’ll know best.

 

[warwickskyblue]

It's fairly mental that it's Wednesday evening before a Saturday afternoon kick-off in October against Blackburn and we have sold out our home tickets bar a few on the ticket exchange and we aren't celebrating this..... How far have have we come to get to a position where this is accepted as the new normal?!? BTW I'm not complaining about that, more that we are normally a moany bunch and we really should celebrate what a difference a few years makes!!!

It’s stunning

Having been married 3 times, I tend to get anniversaries mixed up! I like to live dangerously!

I know all the dates, but buggered if I remember which is which!
April 23rd
May 11th
December something or other.

 

[curly_tom]

We should win this. It should be an easy one I hope. I can’t help having that feeling that at some point the bubble will burst but I don’t think it’ll be this weekend. We always seem to do ok against Blackburn and I think we are genuinely better than them. I won’t be able to watch as have a family thing. Every game feels big at the moment.

 

[TomRad85]

Ughhhh not this absolute ring piece of a ref.

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

2-1 Thomas and Saka

 

[Littlewood CCFC]

Ughhhh not this absolute ring piece of a ref.

I remember we had him for the Derby 2-0 loss last season and he let them take the piss for time wasting the whole game

 

[Hutch11]

He's one of if not the actual worse referee in the league
Likes to make it all about him

He's really not. In fact it's the opposite.

 

[Hutch11]

I must be getting him mixed up with some other narcissistic twat then

 

[Nick]

They were time wasting all first half as well then there was no added time.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Is this the one Lampard kicked off about after the game?

 

[skybluegod]

I will agree there are some, but he's normally decent! Although when Allison has a stinker it does tend to be really bad.

 

[alexccfc99]

The Burnley game? No

He was in charge away at Derby last season where he missed the ball going out of play for their 2nd goal and added on 4 mins despite Derby spending the whole second half taking near enough a minute to take a goal kick

He is a dreadful ref

 

[Dougin]

He really is a terrible referee, I can’t understand how he is one.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I can. Because of woke.

 

[colinc]

I can. Because of woke.

Or perhaps because the EFL isn't racist ?

 

[covcity4life]

He's being sarcastic because the guys he's replying to is a racist

 

[CovValleyBoy]

I'm not sure I've seen enough of Saturday's Ref to form an opinion. I guess like most Championship supporters we expect poor & that's mostly what we get. We have to keep banging the goals in & take it away from the officiating.

Speaking of, made me think of Keith Stroud whats he up to nowadays?

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Starting Lineup​

*Simms gets the nod if Wright isnt able to start​

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

First game I remember him taking charge of was v Brum at home when O'Hare scored both and he was really good that night

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Wonder how close Rudoni is to being on the bench.
