I guess it does. It was just an observation, because I don't buy into the idea that you can spin playing in front of 5K at SA into a positive.

I don't get this thinking. One thing that surprised me last season was how patient we were at home and how we rarely turned on the team, despite it being very frustrating at times. Sunderland by contrast lost once at home all season and their fans turned on them many times.

Think that was a few days ago. They had sold 720 by yesterday morning, so are expecting to bring about 1000.

It's fair to say that it's weaker than it was at the the end of last season, but no way is it weaker than the team that started last season. The opening day last season, we had Doyle, Ogogo and Andreu in the middle and Max playing lone striker. Sterling was very raw at that point and Hiwula...

None of my 5 have arrived and they were ordered in 2 separate transactions, so I guess they're still being sent out, so wouldn't worry.

What are you on about you maniac! I've never left a message and am not blocked. What gave you that idea? I don't give a toss really. I'm just commenting on the fact they have blocked a load of accounts because of a few snide comments. It's fucking twitter, it's a swamp. Just saying it's a bit...

I think it's somewhat embarrassing that Wasps are blanket blocking not just those who have left salty messages, but also those who have liked or retweeted. Persistent offenders I get, but it's all a bit petty. They should deal with it the same way CCFC twitter deals with the smart-arse replies...

Diamond Lights. Classic.

While I'm loathed to agree with anyone who knocks this fine city, which is centre of the known universe after all, it is a more attractive away day. Will be easier to get to by train from many parts of the country too.

The away maximum will be 5000. The average away following at the Ricoh was 1K, so if that's repeated (no reason why not, and it may actually be higher) I think it will be very difficult for us to not average 6K. But yes, there is the potential for the odd shocker, but overall 6K is probably...

I'm sure if I went looking I could find people claiming, with absolute certainty, that SISU 'pocketed' the money. Don't know how do these people get through life.

Saw this on Twitter earlier:

Fruit and vegetables are not a good way of gauging scale become there is no standard size. I'd suggest something like a Findus Crispy Pancake or Pop Tart.

It's infuriating. It baffles me that people don't get this. It is the sense of entitlement - this idea that we should be competing financially with a club that have sold 20,000 season tickets. We turnover £6.5 million a year, it's peanuts, and that will fall notably this year. It's testament...

Also, match packages are now available to buy online.

The club tweeted just under 2500 a day or so ago, but there was a bit of a flurry yesterday, so probably a couple of hundred on top of that in total. So maybe around 2700 in total inc corporate, with sales for Southend match currently around 3K based on your count.

No it doesn't, and I have seen very little of the 'true supporter' logic you mention. It is fine to ask questions though, and have a discussion about motives and reasons. I have friends who would attend with me at the Ricoh who are choosing not to go or perhaps only do the odd game. Fine...

Reading fans aren't showering themselves in glory. Most city fans seem to be saying good signing, but I've only had a quick scan. Twitter is a cesspool anyway. That said, our fans seem positively enlightened compared to some.

Actually, regarding match tickets and walk ups the opposite is true. Last season was a slight deviation, but the average gate is usually about double the number of St holders, and you don't see that at other clubs so much where ST holders account for a much bigger proportion. That's not to say...
