Agreed. I’m sure the last 2 away games to WBA were 20 pointers compared to Saturday games like Plymouth, Sunderland and Norwich. WBA away will always be a sold out allocation. This season, we’ve got some horrible midweek trips for away fans and it makes sense to reward the people who go to...

Wasps is a textbook example of how to cannibalise your customer base by offering cheap/free tickets. If your product is premium, price it accordingly. The points system is an additional incentive to go to these kind of games. No doubt many of the ‘close shoppers’ skipped out on Bristol and...

This moaning is just jarring now. A tenner for an U18 ticket is a reasonable price. STHs usually get a small discount to reserve the ST seat too. ‘For a poor league cup tie’ is key here and betrays the actual motive of why a lot of people won’t go.

Does anyone want my ticket? My original plans aren’t going to work so won’t make KO.

All the best to you too. To say it’s not an unforced error, what is?

It’s irritating when people say it costs ‘x’ for a family of 4. Any product or service is obviously more expensive when you times it by 2-3. It’s unfortunate Most of the games this season will be Cat B and this is reasonable pricing and in line with what other clubs are charging. It is...

3000 tickets would be available to purchase so the price only impacts that many. I don’t think there will be more than 4 Cat A+ games all season and probably specifically has the Birmingham and Leicester home games in mind. The 20,000 who bought a ST are not impacted unless we get a money...

So? There was plenty of opportunities to purchase them before this news before the STs sold out. It’s going to impact a small number of games so again, it’s making a mountain of mole hill. I hope Boxing Day isn’t a Cat A+ game because £45 for a ticket for away fans travelling from Swansea isn’t...

Not really the same is it? Our goal was poor defending from your defender whereas your winner at our place was from an unforced error. MVE’s back pass was should have been routine but was underpowered which left the GK in no man’s land. Credit to your players for chasing the ball and punishing...

The same was said about Haji Wright and when he’s fully fit and firing, he’s a league leading player in his positions.

Seems like a storm in a teapot to be honest because it only impacts about 6k supports split roughly evenly between the away supporters and Cov walk ups. I have a bit more empathy for away supporters because they don’t get to choose to get a ST or not. Our ST prices remain v cheap, and that’s...

You might want to keep them. Would they be willing to stay if they were pushed further down the pecking order? It’s apparent that both players want to be starters. How do you improve the CM / CB positions without letting players go? I’m relaxed about changing the CM department as long as we...

Both Eccles and Lati have played outside their primary position a handful of times over the last 2 seasons. Eccles is a solid player who’d start for every team outside the Top 8 comfortably. On Lati, it’s telling that he started off first choice for Robins and Lampard to end up losing that...

In practice, Lati has played almost exclusively as a CB last season. I don’t think he It’s the same with Eccles, he’s filled in admirably a few times at RWB, AM and RM but is not a specialist in any of those positions.

Why did the tie go to extra time in the first place? We gifted you a goal at our own place and you took the win to 2nd leg. It’s the defence that is in need of improving and whether or not that’s tactical, personnel or a bit of both… it’s something that’s holding us back. Having that solid...

Brau has filled in at LW for 2 halves in preseason, it’s probably not going to be a permanent thing. Considering we have 3 wingers on the books, we can’t field 2 sets of wingers for a first and second half eleven.

He filled in at LWB for a 14 game stretch last season and a handful of games throughout his career. He’s a young player who is perhaps building versatility, but more likely there was a need for him to fill in there. Given the noise around MVE in Jan and his suspiciously timed change in...

For Haji, if he takes longer on the recover and comes back with a bang, he’ll make the squad. If he comes back not quite fit and he ambles around as he did in the playoffs… he won’t. Quality of games is key imo.

Agreed. Difficult to get to, nothing much to do pre-match and it’s a soulless bowl. Oxford is probably the runner up. Watford serves no booze which is a gripe but tbh, I don’t tend to drink at the games. The location is great and there’s a lot of amenities so is a good away day!

We need more goals, not less. It would be v surprising to see Brau play LW come the start of the season. Brau playing LW is v much in the same vein Howley played CB for a few preseason games in 2023 before we signed the CBs.
