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...

Maybe I've got mixed up with someone else. I thought I remembered you saying you weren't going to SA, but obviously mistaken. Yes, will be going. Have purchased 5 season tickets, bloody kids! I don't agree with the other point though. 2,000 extra season tickets is worth around 400K, and...

This isn't a dig, but haven't you been pretty vocal about not going to SA? You do accept then, that if 1-2K more people had made a commitment we might have been able to bring in an extra player or two?

Yeah, £5 million at the end of last month.

They're also now in debt to JP McManus who loaned them a load of cash recently.

None have been sent out yet. All being sent early next week apparently. No panic.

I don't mind the Sunderland thing either really, just think it has gone too far and there are a few hotheads who need to have a quiet word with themselves. I don't agree that the Leicester thing wasn't reciprocated. I think there are some on both sides who are indifferent to it, but when you...

Haven't spoke to my brother for a week or so. I'll ask him later and let you know.
