    VAR needs an overhaul

    You can say it's over-precise or flawed but you can't say it's corrupt FFS. If they really wanted to fix results they'd stick purely to employing refs and linesmen who (theoretically!) could be bought off. They wouldn't introduce a complex system involving numerous officials and technicians (=...

    New Blue Fan Help!

    No old people complaining they aren't farts, or farts saying they aren't old?

    Has anyone received their priority points for 24/25 ST renewals yet?

    I meant all points older than 4 years disappear each summer. So we are saying the same thing I think. (I've made a tiny edit to my previous post to make it clearer)

    Has anyone received their priority points for 24/25 ST renewals yet?

    So basically, points last for 4 years then get wiped?

    Season tickets for 2024/2025 season

    Interesting and encouraging stats. Reinforces my feeling that a proper functioning ticket office, well staffed by friendly humans, should be at the heart of a good club. As discussions on here continue to prove, even the best-configured online system is always going to throw up complicated...

    Season tickets for 2024/2025 season

    Should be easy enough. I'd suggest phoning ticket office rather than emailing. Probably have to wait a while (if it says there are more than a couple of people ahead if you in the queue, maybe best try again at a quieter time). Ticket office staff have done a great job on this sort of thing...

    safe standing 2024

    Regarding sight lines, I do wonder whether people sitting in block 10 will have their view of the corner of the pitch blocked by those standing in 11? Presumably they've thought these things through.

    safe standing 2024

    And similarly depending on how things go, I imagine it would be feasible to extend safe standing into 15 in future (as desired by a few on here). But it seems to me that 11 to 14 is quite a decent allocation (at least numerically) for standing. Safe standing is easier in the corners because...

    safe standing 2024

    Block 10 isn't 'closed off'. It was on the list of blocks where STs will be sold next season, and presumably will be sold (and enforced) as seating only.

    Our current squad is absolute dog shit.

    Just had the pleasure of giving Otis a belated but well-deserved like for something he posted 13 years ago 😀

    Home fans in South Stand v Preston - Trial Confirmed

    Ideally I'd like safe standing for home fans behind the goal, but developing that creates issues around sight lines etc. (discussed ad nauseum in previous threads on here). In that regard, safe standing is much easier to provide in the corner, but if the standing fans are going to move to the...

    Home fans in South Stand v Preston - Trial Confirmed

    You seem to be implying that the club is wasting its time and money on creating a safe standing area in the corner, because all the people who want to stand will get STs in the seating area of the South Stand, leaving the corner empty? And anyone who sits in the South Stand expecting to watch a...
