They had a family zone for reading away the other year. I think its a decent idea to be honest. The state of some of our fans at away games, pissed up and on the gear, it's not always the best environment for small kids.

Nah, both adults. Although, when I was having issues, he also tried to buy tickets and we swapped who tried when one failed. Thought maybe it's because we were logged in to our own accounts at the same time and the system thought we were trying to cheat it, but it didn't allow us to assign an additional ticket until we removed the ticket assigned or our basket errored, so not sure.

Anyone could just buy a group of adults as long as one child ticket is bought also they won’t know anything. The child doesn’t even have to go the match how would they know.

They can ask you why you are trying to enter the family stand without a child present.

Anyone got two accounts 1000+ they aren’t using so I can buy two (in the family zone or whatever)?

I see that Stoke's owners (Coates family) are paying for all away travel (coaches) for the 12th consecutive season. That's some gesture (although they can afford it!)

Maybe they should refund all gambling losses for a year instead

Depends how many spaces. It could potentially leave seats unsold.

Weirdly it also seems to be safe standing as if you put the ticket in your basket it warns you it is s/s

You'd need a child with lots of points though in which case they probably go to all the games anyway.

If we have no more incomings, I’d start with:
Dovin, MVE, Thomas, Binks, Bidwell, Torp, Rudoni, Sakamoto, EMC, Simms, BTA.

I'll be in the sky while this is being played and won't know final score until I land. Going to drive me mad.

Try and get the pilot to do a holding pattern, ideally in Johansson’s eyeline.

Wright isn’t going to start when he’s only played 15 minutes in pre-season

Would go with this as well.
Would like to see EMC, BTA on from around 60 minutes as they look top class.
Happy for Palmer to rotate into the Torp position later in the game - Palmer's very technical and looks good with Rudoni.
There's so much more pace and power in the team vs. a couple of years ago - both in the starters and on the bench.

Probably not, but he was away with the USA for the Copa America so he didn't have 6 weeks off like everyone else. Robins may want to risk him for an hour if he trains well this week.

Thing is with the strengthened squad there’s no reason to risk him from the start, makes so much more sense to start EMC and slowly bring Wright up to speed
