Would rather see Forest in the Europa League instead of the Conference League as I'd be worried they might actually win the latter.

 

The Conference League standard has dropped massively since we were in it and West Ham won it, and that bar was already quite low to begin with.

My thoughts exactly. They won't last long in Europa but serious chance of progressing far in ECL.

Would also get some incredible aways in ECL, can't be having that

Pitch invasion for finishing 6th in Bristol 

Personally don't mind it, playoffs are the best thing in domestic football.

Bristol C also one of the more 'boring' teams to support in terms of excitement in recent years. Continual mid table c'ship side.

This is pretty shitty and not a good look for WST. 

 

 

Don't get why people pay serious £££ to go and watch the snooker.

You have to sit there in silence for 95% of the time.

Always makes me laugh when the commentators call it an 'electric atmosphere'. No it's fvcking not. Actually resembles Filbert Way quite well.

I went to the Crucible for a first round game a few years ago, was alright but would never go again.

Big partnership needed here

The fact that Man U and Spurs have gone this far in Europe surely puts paid to the silly notion that the prem is weaker than ever.

 

 

Who on earth is saying this

So here we are page 449.

 

Does anyone actually think anything will every change in England or at Leicester?.

 

Put me in the 'No' group.

Bristol City seem to have a good thing developing at the moment.

In the premier league? Highly unlikely.

There is hope for the lower divs, grounds not being fully sold out all the time is a big help.

Don't understand the rampant Inter disrespect.

Underestimate them at your peril.

Barella is incredible

Seriously Rio Ferdinand is up there for most irritating man alive. And there is a lot of competition for that crown. Brain dead clown. Trying his best to ruin one of the best games of all time. STFU

I definitely fancy Bodo to turn Spurs over

It’s not even that though, it’s the obsession with only going at the opposition. I know some parts of the fanbase are a bit rough and ready but yesterday was just cringy. Wolves fans were playing their part too but it seems like a lot of our lot only go for ‘banter’ 

 

support the team man. 

The team deserve nothing but abuse at this point

Stayed in Petrovac when I went Montenegro - beautiful little ground just off the coast. They are likely to qualify for Conference League this season - no idea if they can play at home or have to go Podgorica. 

When they made Europa qualifying in 2009 they played in Niksic.

Outrageously though, when Bokelj (Kotor) were in 2016 qualifying they played their "home" game in Petrovac, so there's chance for them yet.

Went to Igalo - Ibar in the Montengrin second div the other week. Absolutely stunning ground (setting rather than the one uncovered stand).

Finished 5-1, quality fairly high but attendance wise, you'd probably get that in English 10th tier.

Madsen key wicket obviously

big up the lads

max batting bonus points

We bat very deep with this line up. Mike 10, Scriv 11 is mad

Going to Inter Milan v Cagliari this weekend, tickets bought. Hoping to go Como v Torino on Sunday but may have left it too late to get tickets.

 

Has anyone any experience of ticketing at Como, do they save any for sale on day of the match?

When we went the day before the Milan derby, was buy tickets on day job, were loads of British groundhoppers knocking about. Granted they were Serie B at the time, so less interest but doubt they're completely selling games out?

Don't understand the rampant Inter disrespect. Been solid as a rock at the back and the Thuram-Lautaro goal last night was out of this world good, considerably better than either Rice effort.

Going to this, hope it's the most toxic away end of all time, should be fun

Yep.   Compare this to 2003-04 (Premier League, relegation season under Micky Adams).     Some of the grounds were smaller than today, and might not have given 3000 tickets ... but just compare the numbers:

Some mad numbers in here. 900 to Boro for a Saturday 3pm-er, crazy.

There are plenty of posts over the years that imply or just actually say this.

Should have a plethora of examples then.

Has been said over and over again that the club are actively campaigning against getting younger fans in through ridiculous single game pricing and refusal to open up games to general sale
