Possibly a nomination for the most pointless thread, but I’m a dedicated people watcher and a bit nosey.

Loads missing on my row last night. Only 3 people on my row inc me and me mate…and I assume the row is made up of ST holders.

I tend to miss around 3 on average a year…. Just wondered what other people average….mine are always work related or personal events such as weddings funerals and holiday. Talking to a Stoke ST holder last night and he pulls out of all events inc family weddings to attend 100%…. But we are all different …. I dislike some of my family but they come before Footie…. Most of the time!!

Wasn't there yesterday, we've got a 2 year old so find midweek games a pain at best if we're both at work that day. Might go for a match package in future and just do weekend games

Missed one earlier in the season so gave it to my dad he enjoyed it so much that he started going again after many years away and then got a half season ticket. Top result

Covid most likely, but still counted in attendance.

I am a senior and like to give my ticket to someone if I can’t make it.
Last night I noticed a steward inside the ground checking the lights as cards were read.
Is there a colour code for which card is being used. Eg. Adult,Senior,child?

We were on our way up. Left at usual time around 5.15...Major pile up on m40 by beaconsfield...we were stuck on the motorway for an hour...gridlocked. tried a few side roads gridlocked.

Turned back home around 7pm near aylesbury...(dont Ask) .

Ended up listening to it on Ifollow radio!

Could have made it up for 2nd half....but it was freezing day and I was done!

I make most Saturday games, still got family and friends in Cov so make a weekend of it. Wasn't there last night, difficult getting down in time for midweek games so have only made a couple, the worst being Birmingham

Isn't it green normal card and red concessions or something like that?

As a phase one elite, I was told the team would refuse to play if I didn't attend so I use the Boddy-copter to get to games each week.


Nah I've missed about 3 games so far this season, but usually lend my ticket to others if I can't make it so it's not going wasted

One a season, maybe two. Usually when we have to go to Wales to see the wife's relatives. Next time is April 2nd. We do have a game, can't remember who, but won't be around for that. Hate missing games.

ST holder. Missed last night and QPR with covid, I assume I caught it in the concourse at Posh away. Isolation finishes this Friday. Have my Middlesbrough away ticket and have just booked my train ticket leaving at stupid ‘o’ clock so I can have an hour or two and breakfast in York. I find it incredulous we’re back on track and on the brink of the brink again, can’t wait!

As a season ticket holder i travel from Preston. Travel down by train when i can. Only miss Saturday games if on holiday and try to make mid week games. Last train back after match is before final whistle so have to sleep somewhere and travel back next day, usually a friend puts me up but all adds to cost and time so may miss one or two.

Missed my first one last night. It’s a 240 mile round trip and the midweek ones are a bit of a pain but worth it. I think with this being so close to Saturday’s game and it being grim out I decided not to go and iFollowed it. Sounded like a good game and I got to bed before 0030.

Only 2 out of my group of 5 there last night.

I work shifts so it's entirely up the the football scheduling gods if I can get to games or not. This season I've been quite fortunate with home games, I am able to make it to 19 games.

Away games have been shit though, only made it to 5, and no wins

We're on your row Neil but were in an exec box last night. I did lend my tickets, but they used them for entry then walked round to where they normally sit.

I rely on you and your Dad blocking the cold wind coming across from that end… it was bloody freezing. Just the old boy on his own in the middle seat and then me and me mate on the end seats.

I was there last night and Saturday. Lots of empty seats at top of Block 2 that are normally full. Got home at 23.20 which is pretty good as it’s often nearer midnight.

As an aside , and I have no real bias here, but I have seen a lot of plaudits for Ben Sheaf after last night- I am scratching my head because I thought he was poor- kept giving the ball away. He’s good at breaking up the opponents play but from what I’ve seen, he offers very little going forward.

I await to be shot down, of course, but I just don’t get the current Q4 QA

Season ticket holder and missed 1 this season due to work. Mid week games are a pain living in Hampshire but the drive home flys by if we have won.

A defensive midfielder doesn't get forward much. Leicester had the same issue with kante when they won the league didn't they? As an aside he didn't keep giving the ball away either.
