I'd be in favour of this, it's out of control. pretty much every game there's applause for someone now and the vast majority of the time you have no clue who the person was. People start clapping and everyone near me starts looking at each other like are they clapping something that has just happened that we missed or are we supposed to be clapping something.But I think the club need to put a message out that from next season any tributes/applauses during the 90 mins of football will not be encouraged and should be limited to a moment of reflection before kick off and/or the annual remembrance fixture
You’ve also got the issue now where whoever (I can’t remember who it was) knocked the ball out of play for an applause the other week and the precedent has now been set and it is expected that everyone does itI'd be in favour of this, it's out of control. pretty much every game there's applause for someone now and the vast majority of the time you have no clue who the person was.

If it's a significant enough event do it before kick off, if not just get on with the game.
Desperate to deflect from the fact that their fans have been caught being racist, mocking dead kids, mocking dead fans of other clubs... and that's just within the last year!! Absolute gutter rats, best ignored.Fuck Wednesday racist twats , there's no rule that says you must kick the ball out and that gollum lookalike only told us to do it after they lost the ball
They blame everyone but themselves, always have done, always will , twats
Totally agree with this, it is out of control and it may seem harsh but I don't want to clap for someone I didn't know from Adam, yes I'm sure family and friends are grieving and most of us have lost people we loved and felt it deeply but I think that unless it is a well known public figure there shouldn't be an expectation from others to express sympathy in a public manner.I'd be in favour of this, it's out of control. pretty much every game there's applause for someone now and the vast majority of the time you have no clue who the person was.

We have a monthly (?) memorial now surely that's enough. Obviously if something like Regis or Sillett dies you're going to mark that or some horrific local tragedy like Keaton Slater but that will always be pre match.Totally agree with this, it is out of control and it may seem harsh but I don't want to clap for someone I didn't know from Adam, yes I'm sure family and friends are grieving and most of us have lost people we loved and felt it deeply but I think that unless it is a well known public figure there shouldn't be an expectation from others to express sympathy in a public manner.

@Sky Blue Pete I think this needs touching upon tbh and I understand it’s a delicate matter and what I’m about to say might not be agreed with
But I think the club need to put a message out that from next season any tributes/applauses during the 90 mins of football will not be encouraged and should be limited to a moment of reflection before kick off and/or the annual remembrance fixture
We’re still having mud thrown at our name for scoring during the mins applause for the lad at Sheffield Weds the other week and it’s quite frankly ridiculous that footballers are being ridiculed for doing their job in a professional environment
Keep it outside the match and that way nobody gets hurt/upset

They don’t do itAnother topic
If I wanted to upgrade to one of the hospitality packages as a one off could I not get discount as I've already bought a season ticket and therefore a ticket to the match
I don't expect the full price of a ticket knocked off but something would be nice
I know they don't but is that they won't too?They don’t do it
I've always been in the can't be bothered with the hassle and finding a reliable stream but the cost of sky now is insane.
There's fuck all on the movie channels now as the studios have their own services and you have to spend £50+ a month just for sport, the vast majority of which I don't watch. I pretty much only have time to watch our games, plus the occasional but of tennis or cricket so its really not worth the money. Can't remember the last time I watched a live PL game.
I'm locked in to a contact but as soon as that's up I think I'm going to go down the cord cutting route.
Yep.Stick to the scoreboard at half time to remember those who may have sadly died.I'd be in favour of this, it's out of control. pretty much every game there's applause for someone now and the vast majority of the time you have no clue who the person was.

It seems people are able to watch Saturday 3pm games through IPTV at a lot of Coventry pubs. I take it this is something the club aren’t interested in stopping? Or are they not aware it’s happening?
Shef Wednesday calling us scum. Pot,kettleSheff Weds trying to stop the game for a Sheff Utd fan every game? It's weird.
WTF - I pay €15 a month for Sky Sports.That's because you're a complete melon if you're forking out £150 a month for Sky Sports etc instead of the dodgy stick for £60 a year
Basic economics
They don’t do it
Well the system needs an upgrade then ( I suspect it’s all down to technical limitations)
The whole hospitality system is so manual- you can buy hospitality tickets online but not choose your own seat which is mad given it’s the most expensive part of the ground.
I think a lot of season ticket holders would love to do a one off upgrade for special occasions etc where you might get the discount only once in the season but be able to do it all online.
Yeah-went into the balcony bar for the Ipswich game which was £60-a reasonably sensible approach bearing in mind that it was £15 a ticket in the stand. I notice that they are doing it for £80 for the upcoming games and we were talking about doing it for the Middlesbrough game. But like you say-that would be our normal season ticket seats going to waste 🫤I’ve really enjoyed the Balcony Bar to the point of we’re talking about getting season tickets there next year, have talked about upgrading a couple of games before the end of the season but always put off by the fact our tickets go to waste. Just give me £10 off and resell my tickets and I’d be happier and the club £20 richer for games like Stoke that look like a sell out.

Another thing he may hopefully back track on-fair play if he does as he has with other issues in the past.ST discount for hospitality was a thing until a couple of season's ago. We used to do hospitality for my birthday and I'd get £12 off (or thereabouts) as a STH. One of the things that Doug knocked on the head when he raised the prices and got rid of concessions for the lounges.

Already answeredI’d like to see an initiative where STHs can ‘exchange’ their ST seat for a discounted hospitality rate for a one off game. Say, a £10-15 discount the club gets to resell the ticket for £25+.
I did hospitality v Ipswich and considered doing one of the home games but because I’ve got my ST, it feels like a waste of money to me personally.
@Sky Blue Pete a question for the forum?
When they last 'decorated' they painted over wads of chewing gum stuck on the walls.Another one to flag again but the state of the gents bogs is still pretty horrendous
Just remember to rub it down when you start and two coats not this cowboy 1 coat stuff!Question being asked about decorations.
I would settle for them fixing the doorsWhen they last 'decorated' they painted over wads of chewing gum stuck on the walls.
