Reckon he regrets not coming us?

Bump, Labour appear to planning their manifesto pledge on income tax… Reform’s prediction of a 2027 GE doesn’t look so far fetched now.

Thankfully, Blues, WBA and co can’t discriminate against us without jacking the prices for their own fans.

This is a mantra that gets repeated and is somewhat true. Going to the football is a habit, and once you break the habit, it can v difficult to get back into it. There's a few lads I went to games with now who had STs when we were mediocre who no longer go and a similar amount of people who...

A lot of those clubs charge £35-38 for an away supporter so the moral grandstanding over £7-10 is cringeworthy. Frankly, King has broken a taboo in football because lots of clubs (particularly teams who have high fill %) will follow suit and bump up concession prices.

There's no such thing as bad PR. People fixate on the Cat A+ prices but that makes up 3-5 games + final home games. As you rightly point out, most the games are Cat B which are in and around WBA's 'reasonable' and 'family friendly' prices. Our ST prices are cheaper than most teams in the league...

That’s a pretty reasonable argument. If 6-8k tickets sold at £35-45 help subsidise cheaper season tickets, the incentives are correct.

Keiffer Moore would be a 3rd top scorer with his current tally but on the double the wages. 40k p/w or whatever for a 2nd choice striker is crazy. Frankly, he’s a player that always been overhyped on here. Moore and Wrexham is a good fit, fair play to them.

With respect, Brexit has changed surprisingly little and if you think everything would be fine and dandy, perhaps look at what is actually going on in continental Europe. Think Reform is bad? Look at Le Pen’s party, the AfD and who’s polling well in the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Austria and so on.

Who said that? 😂 No, I don’t think it is and to make a generic statement that goes beyond the immigration debate… the civic culture of the UK as a whole needs rejuvenating. In the context of 20-30 years of mass migration, unifying symbols and stories of the nation are much more important...

Keir Starmer does in official announcements and his performative patriotism fools no one. His MPs paint a different picture and they are the ones that will be knocking on doors for votes come the next election. A Google search gets specific examples, but this gives a decent summary of the...

Grendel's point was that people hoist flags in public spaces aren't of the UK/home nations. Are they engaging in 'divisive' or 'intimidating' behaviour, if not, why? That's a curious double standard. The whole business of erecting the Union Jack was in part a response to councils taking down...

No, because its unilateral. The liberal-left is committing electoral suicide by adapting the idea that our national flags are somehow 'divisive' and 'intimidating'. To flip this argument on its head @Sky Blue Pete, are British people allowed to feel 'intimidated' or 'divided' if they went to an...

It’s probably one of the many reasons why Sheff U are in a spot of bother right now. Overall, our squad is balanced and is mostly complementary, we just need a couple more attacking players. Wingers, for example, is a dynamic position and a lot of overuse injuries (hammies etc) so having 3-4...

Agree on that, but only if we're confident they can make the step up to the Prem. Overall, there won't be many CMs better than Eccles as a 3rd choice and once he gets fit and contributing, anxieties over CMs will ease imo. It feels like we've only got Allen-Torp-Grimes atm since Eccles has only...

Perhaps, but I just can’t see that happening given how much Robins rated McCallum, tried to push out Bidwell once or twice and dropped JDS. If he was asking for silly wages, then declining him seems more plausible. McCallum is probably fuming that Sheff U brought him in, only to then add...

Am I back in GCSE science? You need to do the lending of textbooks now! 😂 I get the point, MVE-Thomas-Kitching-JDS have all been playing and training with one another for 3 seasons now. 4 for Thomas and Kitch specifically. He had a bad game, as did Bidwell. Ironically, despite ‘England’s...

Equally, clubs should cut their cloth accordingly. Most team will have relegation clauses and all the parachute payments do in practice is to subsidise the relegated teams to corner the market on EFL talent. It is anti-competitive. It goes without saying, I’d be fuming if we got promoted and...

You’re exactly right. Our squad is strong with lots of good options all over the pitch. However, how often would subbing on a fullback, centre back or CM actually win you game? For example, bringing KKH and/or Brau at RW/LWs may work when you’re winning 1 or 2-0 (it has v Millwall and...

I’m confident. If we’re top by Jan, there surely isn’t any major roadblocks. We’ve got Ipswich x2, PNE and Southampton (A), Swansea and Bristol at home. It’s a bit of gauntlet, particularly when considering that we play Stoke and Boro away before then. After Jan 5th, the only Top 6 team we’ll...
