    Matchday Ticket Prices

    You are the one who raised the issue of this affecting us. You said, "we'd be paying". I merely pointed out that it wouldn't affect most of us. I genuinely feel for folk who struggle to afford tickets but I believe season tickets are the answer for most of us. For the rest it's supply and demand.

    Matchday Ticket Prices

    We're wont as most of us don't go to away games. Therefore the price of away tickets doesn't affect the majority of us. Also the majority of us have season tickets so we are not affected by price of match tickets. I just paid £90 to take 2 family members to Boxing day game. Happy to pay it. If...

    Supply and demand. It's simple economics. Pay the asking price or someone else will.

    Some of the best attacking football weve played for years

    Am I alone in not liking the playing with wingers part? The crosses lack quality. There is often few attackers to get on the end of them unless they arrive in the box late. We looked better on Saturday when we took off the wingers and played a front 3 with full backs doing the crosses. Just my...

    Timewasting

Exception is head injury or something that is so obvious that the players should stop playing and kick it out. That's on their professional integrity. They shouldn't want to see a...
