    Crowd trouble

    I've got a feeling part of the funding came via the EU so they had to crack on with the station knowing it couldn't be used for its intended purpose.

    Crowd trouble

    There is apparently 32,753 seats with 6K of those in the away - guessing that's approximate. That's would only put it down to about 30K with segregation but its been said a couple of times the balcony can't be used, no idea why, but if that's true that will take more off. At the moment I think a...

    Crowd trouble

    What can he do? Not like he can overrule them. He can question the methods used and the crowd management at the stadium but we're not in charge of any of that are we?

    Crowd trouble

    Its utterly pathetic. Its now 16 years since the stadium was opened right next to the existing train line and you still can't easily get to events by train. Wasn't the original justification for the small number of parking spaces and massive no parking zone that the stadium would be easily...

    Crowd trouble

    If you mean a special train I think the official line is that there's not any spare trains that can be used due to the line not being electrified. They were waiting on lines elsewhere to be electrified to free up diesel rolling stock. There's also an issue that you can't turn trains around at...

    Crowd trouble

    Bit of a joke all round. Derby had 3,482 in attendance and they couldn't cope with that so what difference does it make if its 4K or 5K for this game? Yes the fans causing trouble are idiots but I don't see why the club should lose out on revenue because those who are paid to control the crowd...

    All purpose cricket thread

    That's a pretty comprehensive victory considering the position they were in at one stage.

    A run out in the 1st over, not the start SL would have wanted.

    Bright and Robins

    Given that he's basically been kicked out of 4 of his last 5 clubs it hard to see that going well. Didn't he only play about 10 games for them? Probably a similar situation to when he was here the first time, the raw talent was enough for the management to ignore other issues. Not sure that will...

    SKY and Sheffield United Away

    Southampton do that, or at least they used to. Went to a couple of games when I lived down that way and the tickets came with 3 stubs on them, one that could be used on any bus towards the ground before the game and one that could be used on any bus away from the ground afterwards. Presumably...

    Brights contract cancelled

    From the no further comment part I would guess there was some sort of agreement to say mutually cancelled rather than got kicked out of another club.

    Bright and Robins

    Was worth a try and glad that as it hasn't come off we're not stuck with paying him no matter how little he was on.

    He could find another job pretty quickly If Norwich are considering getting rid of Farke.

    What are you currently listening to?

    Sure they've got some fans on here. Looks like The Enemy will be announcing a WLADITT 15th Anniversary tour for next year at 10am today. Edit: tour confirmed, not sure why they're not on the post but Cov Empire is 28th & 29th October, and presumably extra dates in the week before if / when they...

    Farke out………Robins in, What are the chances.

    There's some huge leaps being taken here. There will obviously be questions about Farke given their start but from that we've gone to the supporters and media want him out, the board are about to sack him, the board have already accepted relegation, Robins is their preferred replacement, Robins...

    Farke out………Robins in, What are the chances.

    Give it a couple of days and Nino Espírito Santo is likely to be an option. Someone with a successful track record at a ‘smaller’ PL club.

    Disrespectful

    Would most stadiums not have to be equipped with PA systems that cover the concourse for use in an emergency situation? Should be that hard to give those not in the stands a notification a silence is starting.

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Agree about the second episode of Outlaws, enjoyed the first one but the second ep is brilliant. Really looking forward to the rest now.

    That's a proper hammering. Beating the Aussies in a T20 with over 50 balls to spare, smashing sixes for fun.
