    Away priority from next season

    Nah they last two qualifying (including friendlies) campaigns. So my caps pre Euro 2020 still count towards Qatar 2022…. After Qatar, those pre Euro 2020 caps will no longer be valid but the qualifying period after the Euros running up to the WC will be… if that makes any sense?! 😂

    Away priority from next season

    It’s changed several times in the last 15 years mate. It’s now 2 for home games and 2 for away. For the tournaments and Scotland Away tickets you have to put the yards in. I can’t get excited about Qatar but putting the yards in now for Germany 2024.

    Away priority from next season

    The issue is there’s 11,000 season ticket holders. When there’s only 5000 tickets available, how do you select the 5000? Saying ST holders should get priority doesn’t solve that conundrum…. Currently the priority is: 1) Phase 1 ST Holder in a Supporter’s Club 2) Phase 1 ST Holder (fastest...

    Sunshine on Sheaf

    That’s brilliant. I’m no song writer but just to join in the fun: To the tune of Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash. We all said Ben-Sheaf was shite, Now he’s fucking dynamite. Got the boy from Arsenal, Now he lives in Willenhall!

    The CBS

    Lots of times this season when we have been on the ropes, the fans have kept singing and the confidence has transferred onto the pitch. That is the epitome of fantastic support. There’s things that I don’t admire about Liverpool fans but one of the things I do admire is on the big occasions...

    Racism at the game

    Hats off to the club for taking immediate action and removing the culprit before kick off - along with confiscating the ST. That individual has no place in a football stadium.

    McNulty Article

    Interesting article. I was gutted when McNulty left, as were most but he’s said himself on various podcasts he wanted the move, to step up to the championship and his agent acts on his behalf. McNulty moved on and so did we. I honestly didn’t see how McNulty would fit into Reading’s system when...

    The CBS

    I think having the corner packed out, from top row to bottom, helps to get the atmosphere going and from what you have said, travelling around the stadium so everybody gets up for it! In my mind it has helped win us points this season and spurred the players on when they have needed it. Late...

    The CBS

    Out of interest, how well did the noise travel? I thought the block 14-18 corner helped to spur the team on last night to get the goal we needed!

    Away priority from next season

    It’s not discrimination as unlike race, gender, sex and disability - living in Derby isn’t a protected characteristic.. People that go to more games, should be rewarded in priority over those that only want to do the local or glamour games. So in theory, if you want equal access to local...

    Blackburn and Mowbray

    I have family that are Blackburn ST holders. In the last 6 months Blackburn Rovers sold their Brockhall training ground to a recently formed company belonging to the Venky’s with Mogga, Waggot and Venus all in favour of it. I can see why fans have questions about it. The first team now train at...

    Southampton tickets

    Yep spot on. The main bones of contention I have seen raised concern the fact season ticket holders get effectively a +1 they can give to anyone and that there is a small number of ST Holders that are guaranteed tickets, through private supporter's clubs. There's a hell of a lot of winding up...

    Southampton tickets

    Well said. I think most people just want a fair crack at getting tickets. That isn’t the case at the moment. Whilst I’m on the computer for work, there’s many out there that don’t get the luxury of whizzing on the computer or going to the ticket office - due to work commitments. A points system...

    Southampton tickets

    I’d agree with this too, it’s created a priority above regular P1 ST holders, so if you have a P1 ST Holder in a supporter’s club, you’re guaranteed tickets. The rest of us just enter the battle of the club shop and ticket master.

    Southampton tickets

    Yes I agree. It’s the fairest way of dishing them out, rather than fastest finger first on ticketmaster.

    Southampton tickets

    There is an interesting bit of info at the bottom regarding Supporter’s Clubs allocations and a loyalty point system for next season. I think it’s time we have a system that reflects away attendance For in demand games.

    I would say keep trying all that haven’t got so far, they drop out of people’s baskets after ten mins if they don’t check out in time. Keep hammering the F5 button!
