It was, I believe, deliberate because there was a 'green travel plan' which had to be in place for all major events. I seem to recall the original plan involved a shuttle train which obviously never happened but there was initially buses from all over the city to games as well as park and ride...

Slightly concerned that they have massively oversold season tickets. It’s been rammed even for the pre-season games and they still have season tickets on sale. As you say when the weather turns it will be an absolute nightmare if they still try and use the pitches, not to mention they will be...

Can't quite work out why they've netted off the first few rows of one of the away blocks but not bothered with the other away blocks.

What doesn't make sense to me is loads of clubs around the country but on bus services, park and ride etc yet whenever it's suggested for us we get a response that it will lose a fortune. How come everyone else can manage it but it's not viable for us?

The franchise that operate the line don't have the rolling stock capacity for additional match day services. The stripey bastards tried paying for a running a match day service themselves and, like with most things they did, it lost a fortune. Worth revisiting maybe but until the lines...

Your options are the club store, the East Stand kiosk or the sellers outside the ground, I walk past three kiosks outside the ground coming from the other side so it would be strange if there's none coming from the side you're coming from. I believe they did trial having programs available from...

I'm 99.9% certain it's under 14s that can't go in unaccompanied because that was the rationale for no longer giving free carers tickets to accompany under 14s. The stewards were def on the case last night. Never seen them check everyone coming through is coming in on the right ticket but they...

They've got greedy and taken way more bookings than the site can cope with. If that keep that up it will be absolute carnage when the weather turns, be cars getting stuck all over the place. Also doesn't help that everyone thinks they're more important than everyone else and don't need to join...

:ROFLMAO: 🤔 :ROFLMAO: tbf held out until the second game of the season, longer than I was expecting

Metro Bank fever! Speaking of which a friend of mine, well friend of a friend, works on socials for another county. They were commanded from on high to stop posting so much about the Metro Bank fever as it was getting too popular on twitter 🤦‍♂️

you could use that argument for every item every club in the country sells

Isn't Umbro now Castore, essentially a rebranding exercise as Castore had so many issues with both supply and quality. Not sure I buy that Luton 'rolling over' their Umbro kits is some great gesture to their fans rather than a fuck up with a new kit.

you can still pay on the night though. Unless they've saved loads back for walk ups there's not a whole lot left for POTG and they're not all in one area which is probably why they aren't having cash turnstiles

Same reason we have ROSCOs rather than buying our own rolling stock, same reason there's fuck all development by the TOCs - remember who paid for the station at the stadium. They won't pay for anything that cuts into their profit. So they demand fully qualified and experienced drivers.

Do you not think banning all club sponsors from getting tickets would reduce sponsorship revenues?

Went down a wormhole about this recently and the bigger problem now is unless you want to pay to put yourself through private training its hard to get qualified. The train franchises don't / won't train anywhere near the number of people required to make up the shortfall in drivers. On the...

Its clever from them tbh. People have complained there isn't a supporters club for people who actually live in the city. They've started one up and obv all the events will take place at the Tavern. They already sponsor various things so I doubt its actually cost them as much as if me or you...

Its been like that for years hasn't it? Thought the club said a few years back the supporters clubs got an allocation of away tickets but this was not in excess of the number of season ticket holders they had as members. Why do football fans throw around words like disgrace about something...
