Once you choose a phone to download your ticket onto, it will stay on that device, and the next game ticket will automatically appear shortly after the current game ends. That works OK. You can't easily transfer tickets to other people from your wallet (at least, not on an iphone) but it is possible if you set them up as a 'friend' on the LCFC website and then use the website to forward the ticket on to them (they don't need to be a member, but they do need to provide their DOB, address, email and phone number). They will get a sent a link that will download the ticket you have shared with them onto their own phone (and it reverts back to you once they have used it). You can only do this five times a season. If it sounds like a ball ache, that's because it is. And if you are in the family stand, you basically have to ring them to do anything.

No and no - four seats in the family stand. Its largely the state of the club, but also my financial situation has changed, my wife and daughter keep missing games because they have other things on, and my son has lost interest in favour of rugby (a damning indictment of the club to my mind). Will keep two memberships and go to the odd game.

Done. Tried to express that I understand why it has been adopted, but that it is just rubbish to use.

Mackenzie Crook got automatic national treasure status for Detectorists, IMO.

There's an incredible pub at the train station before you even get to the town, so pace yourself.

I looked into this a couple of years ago, and the answer then was that it was technically possible for some EVs to tow because they have the torque and the noseweight (Polestar 2 springs to mind), but it was pretty much impossible to do it in reality. The weight of the van reduces the range considerably, so long journeys were pretty much off the table because public charging points are relatively impractical to use while towing (you needed to unhitch and leave the van somewhere, then return to the charging point, probably several times per journey). Even charging at caravan sites wasn't massively easy, because you need to choose between having electric in the van or charging the car. It may be now that ranges and capacity have improved, but at that point for me it was a big no. Towing is a pain at the best of times.

Absolutely ready for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. Just (checks watch)... 18 months to go.

From today's Guardian: Danny Ward had not started in the league for Leicester since March 2023 but was called upon to replace Mads Hermansen against Wolves. He never looked comfortable, making an early error with the ball at his feet and, once the first goal went under an arm, his day was not going to get any better. The goalkeeper has enjoyed an impressive career but a lack of regular football has affected him, leaving his reactions slow and confidence short. It cannot have helped the Wales international that his own supporters booed him and then sarcastically applauded when he did manage a simple save or to intercept an aimless ball over the top. Supporters have a right to express their views on the team’s performance but it must have hurt Ward to suffer such targeted criticism from those supposedly hoping he would save the next shot. He performed poorly, but there needs to be some recognition that footballers are human beings.

Him using his platform to encourage riots and civil unrest in the UK was a shocker to me, and negates anything positive he's done (or taken credit for) IMO.

I would guess the timing is partly because Top was there on Saturday. He saw the game, saw the players, saw how flat the atmosphere was. That has to have had an impact.

Won't be excited if we get one of those managers whose been lingering round the prem for years doing sort-of ok with various clubs, which for me definitely rules out Moyes, Mourinho, and probably Potter too (appreciate he's a solid fit on paper, but I'm not enthused by him).

I thought Gladiator II was the epitome of a mixed bag, but this is spot on. On a big screen with good sound, the battles and the recreation of ancient Rome are impressive, but after about 30 mins it gets pretty lost in callbacks to the first film and messy political plotting. In fairness though, even in his best films, Ridley Scott has never been very good at telling an actual story. His strengths are atmosphere and visuals.

I was having the same from the main menu, but it worked by going to 401, pressing the red button, and doing match choice if that helps.

Tuchel: A capable, pushy and inventive manager, and also a difficult, tetchy, reportedly disagreeable guy. He's like the anti-Southgate!

I suppose I think there's a chance he might find his groove, I guess? In terms of how this plays out, I think we'll most likely go down this season, but that is as much to do with the team we have (significantly worse than the team we had in 22/23) and the financial mismanagement which means we are still at risk of a points deduction. A really accomplished manager might make a difference, but really, they ain't queueing up to come here.

I don't think he's got the answers and is probably the wrong fit for us, but the reason I don't think he should go yet is because clubs who start on the chaotic merry-go-round of a new manager every few months always go down. Also, they always eventually employ Frank Lampard.

Is it me, or does the city centre smell pretty rank at the moment?

Not sure - I think the PL PSR rules look at spending over three years, and the appeal outcome suggests that because we weren't in the PL last year (esp during one crucial month last summer), they can't take that year into account at any point. So that would make it hard for us to breach at any point if 2023/24 is in the mix. Could be wrong though!

Absolutely have to sing this at the next game.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I was thinking after seeing @jammie82uk's response (very helpful, thank you). So far I have never been able to get the resale platform to work, but if it looks like I'm going to be missing lots of games then its obviously worth trying again.

Here's a question, if I have renewed and paid for my season ticket, but my circumstances mean that I am no longer able to use it mid-way through the season, can I cancel it and get a refund for the remaining games? And will I still retain my points as a member?

Banners look good. Seats are fine. But please God can someone repaint the row lettering in the north stand so people can actually find their seats? Currently I spend the first ten minutes of every game saying variations of 'This is N! You are in S. It's over there. N. No NN is at the back. N!' I sat in the west stand last night (good view but as ever, quiet as the grave) and at least you could find your seat, so not sure if it's just where I am.

It annoys me mostly because the position of my seats means it becomes impossible to see the goal, and about half the pitch, from 80 mins onwards.

Villa ticket appeared in my Google wallet this morning. Didn't have to do anything.
