    cricket 2025

    What the county championship absolutely does not need is another game at the end of the season that inevitably gets weather affected and results in nobody winning the competition.

    cricket 2025

    Got home to see Yorks v Lancs on the TV last night. First thing I heard was Atherton bemoaning empty stands and talking about how the fixture used to be a guaranteed sell out. I know I keep saying it but the Blast has been absolutely destroyed. Why is a premium fixture taking place on a...

    Worst Championship Stadium Experience

    QPR, Portsmouth and Swindon are all places where I've had the thought that if anything serious happened you'd be fucked. Guess the same can be said for a lot of older stadiums. Although saying that not sure how quickly you could clear the CBS if it was needed, especially the West Stand.

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    Was watching a thing about ticketing a few weeks back where the head of Live Nation spoke. This is literally the business model now for live events. Selling out is not the aim. The model they have moved to is maximising revenue from those who will attend no matter what through insanely high...

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    Same with people moaning we've got pre-season only training kit for sale. There were queue's outside the shop last season to buy warm up shirts and walk out tops that nobody had even seen a photo of. When people are doing that you're just going to get more and more stuff put out. Only stops...

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    That's a proper pisstake when they're presumably going to re-sell your regular seat at the prices announced today.

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    did away fans get charged the top price last year, as in will they be charged the 'premium zone' price? I have a suspicion the idea is to squeeze as much cash out of away supporters for the big couple of games and then set everything else at the lower categories.

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    Ultimately if there's a ton of empty seats at the first few games the rest of the season will be at the lower categories. However if there's a mad scramble for tickets and sold out game we will see more games at the higher categories. Having 5 different categories across 3 different zones...

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    Is there a list of all clubs matchday ticket prices for next season. Would be interesting to compare.

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    I'm a season ticket holder, I go to way more gigs in a year than I do football matches. Just looked at some of the tickets I've got for upcoming things. Being charged £35 to £40 for the small room at the Institute that holds a couple of hundred people! As I said there's two arguments you can...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    So which is it? Is having kids expensive and unaffordable or does it lead to a life of luxury paid for by the state?

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    That's a good plan until it isn't. My experience, both with myself and with my Dad, is that once you hit a certain age once one health issue comes along others aren't far behind. We've got a generation approaching retirement age who won't get much by the way of inheritance as it will have all...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Can't imagine why he would have any concern about it 😂 Its absolutely crazy that after all this we've ended up with the evidence for Epstein's suicide being a spliced together dodgy recording and the only person locked up is Maxwell for apparently trafficking people to nobody. Surely she will...

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    Where the fuck is premium zone padded seating? I suspect its simple supply and demand. If we've sold a fuckton of season tickets and have a minimal number of tickets left for matchday sales, and sold out games last season, then you ramp the price up. They have only announced categories for the...

    Womens football

    Only caught the very end of the game when I changed to BBC1 when I'd finished watching something else. Saw two appalling attempts from England at what should have been game winning goals and then the worst penalty shootout I've ever seen :ROFLMAO:

    Womens football

    This must be the shittest set of penalties ever taken in a shootout. Not just hitting them close to the keeper there was no power in any of them.

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Bookish is a decent watch on U&Alibi (who the fuck came up with that channel name?). Six hour long episodes but each story is 2 episodes. Obviously Sherlock vibes given its not set in present day, post-war in this case, and is written by Mark Gatiss, who also plays the lead role. A good cast...
