    Sunderland tickets

    Isn't that why the systems been bought in? If for the next away game we've got 10,000 tickets they aren't going to have the same points requirements, it will drop to basically whatever number covers anyone who has a season ticket for a couple of days then general sale

    There's a study showing a link between the brain starting to degenerate and being more right wing. The idea being that the first part of the brain to suffer age related damage is the part of the brain that handles empathy, can't remember the actual scientific word they used but that was the...

    Sunderland tickets

    How short do you want them to be? Any less than 24 hours and people would be kicking off that they were at work or whatever and wouldn't get a change to buy them.

    Sunderland tickets

    You'd hope the club have an idea of how many are in each group and therefore there's a reason its been done like that rather than them randomly picking numbers out of thin air.

    Heat

    from where it is wouldn't bet against it being someone chucking a cig out of a car. London Brigade have declared a major incident and if you look at the list of fires they're dealing with it looks like the majority were started by disposable bbqs.

    Sunderland tickets

    Surely if a group of people want to go and you don't want to buy unless everyone can go you wait until the sales window that covers the person with the lowest points total. If you start saying families or groups can all book with the person with the most points we'll be back to people abusing...

    Accrington Stanley / iFollow Beef

    Has anyone got a link to the Athletic article he's talking about that's not paywalled? Isn't the logical conclusion to his argument that each club is free to negotiate their own rights for their home games. How is that going to close the gap in finances which is what he claims to be bothered...

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-62218706 Can't imagine why people are asking for pay rises when 'real pay is now dropping faster than at any time since records began in 2001'. Article also states that the number of vacancies has increased. Why does supply and demand not seem to apply to...

    Sunderland tickets

    all last season it was constant moaning we don't have a points system. now there's a points system people are moaning because, shock, you need points to get tickets. they could have put any system or points thresholds in place and there would still be complaints.

    T20 won't be far behind. After the various clubs execs claiming Blast ticket sales were as strong as ever when the figures were finally released this weekend they're well down, prior to the launch of The Hundred they'd been growing year on year. We'll end up with a situation where are top...

    If it was a done deal and a deal the club had forced through as they are desperate for the money as some on this thread have suggested surely he wouldn't have played on Saturday. Not saying he won't go obviously but seems odd to me you'd risk him getting injured in a meaningless friendly if you...

    Fuel prices

    how much was it when we had the fuel protests back in 2000, 80p? What's the after you adjust it for inflation, I'm guessing about £1.40.
