  1. Much like yourself as an individual I don't have an issue with the message but I think there's a long battle ahead of us and everything has to be slightly clever and justified. You need to manage the narrative and it's easy for it to be kicked into entitled fans long grass.
  2. Big win for Kettering last night at Alvechurch but a huge goalie error by a highly rated keeper from West Brom (England u19 capped!)
  3. Laurieston - an institution but it’s out of the city centre
  4. West Ham in for him
  5. We’ve hit the target already and now motoring towards £1,500. Thanks everyone who’s donated!
  6. Why the laugh @Tommy G Section 166 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 and The 2007 Ticket Touting (Designation of Football Matches) cover it. It is an offence under section 166(1) of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 for an unauthorised person to sell a ticket for a designated football match or otherwise to dispose of such a ticket to another person. The latter applies. Part of the legacy Thatcher and the Taylor Report had Incredibly music ticket sales don’t have the same specific laws around them. It’s utter madness
  7. Think this was always something clubs were collectively going to clamp down as technically even without a fee it’s considered by the law as touting. Incredibly only with football tickets tho.
  8. Perfect morning there on Saturday too. The other central Edinburgh one is Holyrood. Around Arthur’s Seat 😂 I’ve done that as part of a bigger run a couple of years and didn’t want be doing it at full pelt
  9. The initial throwing out of Pearson and getting in Sven was hardly ringing
  10. Not load of pubs in Edinburgh over the weekend. Canny Man is well regarded but I thought it was good without being great. Similar vibe to say French House in London. Half of a pub, half of a restaurant. The Blackbird - really good early evening type bar. Reminded me a lot of Orange Tree back in the day. The Belfry - yeah good little modern pub this. Good area though Tollcross and Brunsfield
  11. Did a nice park run in Edinburgh at Portbello which meant a great post walk along the beach. Paced it really well, so confidence returning
  12. R&D completely copied Audley Public House in London. It’s laughable how similar the decor is
  13. They did exactly that two years ago and got pelters the other way saying they were crybabies.
  14. I am surprised the digital ticketing for so many is the straw what broke the camels back. By and large, a dormant fan base really kicks off over something which is already used at the likes of Bromley, Harrogate Town, Bradford City, Lech Poznan and all sorts of grounds I've been to in Europe. This isn't an endorsement of it. Just there's umpteen different issues crop up in recent years and that's the one that's got people.
  15. He’s not playing bevauae he’s not good enough for league 1. His career tells you that
  16. Sorry I think that’s just an excuse. If enough fans mobilised in their thousands, the club couldn’t ban everyone. As along as the numbers are a small minority, they can ban etc. EDIT: Btw you can use such coward actions by the club to your benefit, but we can’t even unite on people getting together to say I’ve been banned etc etc.
  17. You’ll have to remind me then because in terms of fans groups:- - The Trust has never had a contested election for board roles bevauae people haven’t put themselves up for it. Anyone can whose a member can raise their hand up - Union FS have struggled to grow from their initial numbers and often find themselves now the target of anger by some of the fans. Often a lone voice in the ground. - Project Reset has come to a grinding halt with no one wanting to take off the hands of the original person who organised it. - No other fan group during the four years has formed. One guy on here tried with the Fosse Collective but that disappeared very quickly. - Less than 2,000 answered a safe standing survey by the club There is quite rightly a lot of anger amongst the fanbase and there’s a lot of good points made and good contributions on here But in terms of action? Minimal. If we want to hold the club to attention, as a fanbase it requires uniting and action.
  18. Regardless of the people on the board, their achievements and their capabilities, it can only change in personnel if people want to change it. The board is the board because the fanbase hasn’t been willing to actually do anything about it
  19. Yeah and that’s fine. In fact had a good chat with one poster who here wanted to made good suggestions and wanted to make clear they were not being pointed with it. But I’m see unacceptable language being used while people won’t actively get involved with the whole process of fan groups etc. If people want to shape it, get involved
  20. They didn’t. Hamza says hello with his drunk driving and Coady with his behind the scenes antics cos Nelson got picked over him. The players having an internal meeting because Enzo around the time of the Plymouth completely lost his bonce. Training was boring to a lot of them and it wasn’t the happy family they tried to make out come May last yesr
  21. Dan Burn and Jordan Henderson aren’t bringing the sponsorship money in
  22. Leicester Senior League. They never had great support originally, they were effectively Enderby Town but changed their name to try and attract more supporters
  23. They’ve already reformed and not too well at all
