  1. The plough FC......a pint, post match chips and my petrol money cos they are short on Sunday . circa 15 euros
  2. And to think we mock 80s fashion. The 80s produced 2 of my 3 all time favourite shirts. Ind coope pin stripe running fox badge and England Mexico 86. The 3rd being bukta walkers crisps 1990-92. But they are made as fashion items not just football kits these days. I've no doubt plenty of kids will be sporting these even if adults don't.
  3. Scumbag move by the club. You need your head checking if you pay this. Not only is it wrong, if you pay, it encourages more of the same in future. Friendlies are sh*t anyway. Played at half pace most of the time, nothing at stake, a million subs. Can't see why anyone would even entertain the thought of paying for it.
  4. Opinions please......I've been invited to a housewarming party. Someone from work, reasonably friendly with them. Just got married bought first house, early 30s, decent jobs.......what's a reasonable gift or sum of money as a gift? Not sure a fiver in a card or a bottle of lambrini is going to cut it. Please remember I also have to save up for tickets to feed my lcfc addiction 🤣
  5. I'm being serious here......my daughter has friends online that when she sees out in person she's says it's awkward to just walk up and say hello. They text before approaching each other. It's not just her either. Not really kids fault either. It's the norm. It's now I wonder whether I should have been firmer on the no smartphone rule when she was younger. But damned if you do damned if you don't. Refuse to get them one and they are left out
  6. Agree. Spot on.
  7. Fair point....pre brian little crowds were sparse but early 90s things picked up and I can remember pen 2 jammed and rocking at certain games long before kick off
  8. I tend to agree/sympathise with you. I have no issue getting "my head around" how to use these things but I just don't like how the world is going. I know for a fact my parents wouldn't have the foggiest about mobile tickets or apple wallets and have no inclination to learn. I like a ticket. I like a person to serve me at checkouts, I like to pay in money to a cashier at the bank not to a machine, i don't want to register an account to buy something and remember ANOTHER password, i dont want to create a profile and book an appointment to go to my local tip......I could go on but i wont as im off topic a little already. My point being I'm not particularly old(40s) and it might not be difficult to use but I also don't want my whole life online. It's about data collection and control. If you like the tech, fine, use it, but it shouldn't be the only way to do things and a free choice should be offered. The global outage the other day baffled me. The world existed before the internet. Why wouldn't these organisations have manual back up plans in place? Anyway. Rant over 🤣 Edit....I'm aware of the irony that I'm spending my time online posting this 🤣. But I chose to. That's the point
  9. They were. Had to get there early to be sure of getting in. Ground busy and atmosphere building an hour before kick off sometimes 👍 Granted......not at barwell for the u23's
  10. 🤣🤣🤣. OP was worrying too much. I'm not sure he would be too fussed if you attend or not 👍
  11. Ha ha . Lucky is one word. I have multiple emails trying to flog me everything from mobile tickets, to appalling Hawaiian shirts to stadium tours to a 372 quid hospitality experience. I'm just waiting for the day they will email to offer me a reasonably priced ticket.......I may be waiting some time .
  12. Like you, I don't know the technicalities but unless you are a big club with nationwide "supporters" it just wouldn't be worthwhile. Mk dons are an example. I saw somewhere their stadium is only 20 odd per cent full most weeks. It just didn't take off in a city that hadn't had a pro team before. That said, it's despicable in my opinion to even consider it. They do it often in the NFL though and blatantly call them franchises rather than clubs.
  13. You should be ok. This is sk1 and sk2 as an example, at 1pm today. Loads of singles dotted about. Might struggle if 2 or 3 wanted to sit together in these areas but plenty of others around the ground. 2s and 3s in G2 and p blocks at the mo
  14. Call me less dedicated than some but the lack of coverage really doesn't matter for this. It was little more than a knockabout to give players a run. Meaningless and effectively not even one proper game, over 120 mins with two completely different line ups. Me personally I can't/don't watch friendlies at all anymore, England or city. It isn't the same when nothing is at stake or it isn't a competitive game. Let's not get all worked up. There will be overkill coverage once the season starts and sky and kp want to open your wallet
  15. I agree. And to be honest how many varieties of things do you need really? I find it quicker and easier when there is just 2 of everything rather than 17 different choices
  16. Indeed it can't
  17. F**k me! Dont! It's hard enough to get away tickets as it is. I only bought about 4 legitimately last season.
  18. Womens are shorter. My daughter has last seasons women's top. Mens she tried was a lot longer
  19. Row z it!!! Put him up in the air!!! Don't let it bounce !
  20. Ha ha yes I'd like an explanation too....I always wonder when I hear it. I always go on ausden Clark or sometimes drive so what's the coach 1 joke? 🤣
  21. The simple solution is a safe standing area.......but that's another story
  22. I did initially think that but I can't see it. Sk1 is fairly straight up and down where the ufs lot stand and behind them. The curve starts at G1 or just begore . I dunno. 🤣. Thanks anyway
  23. Ok I'm gonna bite the bullet here and risk ridicule (it doesn't take much on here) by asking the question. I been buying tickets here for a while, when I can get them, but never understood the large white area. I'm assuming the greyed out seats are season ticket holders so what is the large white area? I know it says singing section but I'm assuming it's made up of season ticket holders so If these are season tickets holders too then why aren't they just greyed out like the others? Not particularly life changing but I'd just like to know to satisfy my curiosity
