This cunt by the way, 'turned their backs on the club'..... ... Honestly, if he said this at the wrong time in the wrong place..... I could once look around at most of my fellow fans and feel we were basically the same people. Nowadays, not so fucking much. Fucking little tosser.

I wouldn't be seen dead with that brick.

No idea but I'm sure I read somewhere it's a PL requirement that some tickets have to go on general sale?

Anyway, I turned the WiFi off earlier on and just came for my bait, was going to try later tonight when I finish work but put back on to have a look and it put me straight through to buying one. I got one for me and my daughter. It might be £74 wasted but I'll take a chance for this season and see how it goes.

I'll get a hat, a false moustache and fake glasses if you want to pass on any tickets for games you can't make outside of your allocated ten.

Wor lass doesn't like him because he gets balloons for every single occasion.

I've just got on five minutes ago and was 55,000.

Quick! Someone start the car! (Obviously not you, though).

I once had the pleasure of hearing ten minutes of his show when a Chelsea fan rang in and the Roger Noveau and the twat mellor were having a chinwag about the game at 'the bridge'. It was a few days after they beat us in the cup in midweek, thirty odd thousand there including about seven thousand Geordies. Us in Div 1, them in the new shiny PL. Anyway, mellor states how he was a little bit disappointed with how few came down from Sheffield for the game on Saturday. The next day it came to mind whilst reading the paper so I looked at the results page. There was fucking 13,000 there on a Saturday afternoon premier league game and this absolute throbber was having a pop at the Sheffield United fans? (Wasn't he a Fulham fan before licking John major's arse and defecting to 'the bridge'?)

There wasn't any season tickets other than the two main stands for sale, going all seater and the thirst to get every cunt signed up all season long meant quite a few were all but frozen out having endured some absolute shite and with plenty of soakings chucked in for good measure. Come PL time the credit cards came out and the have nots were basically fucked off. It's too late now, (almost thirty years!!) but I definitely would've put a limit on STs so the community had a crack at watching their team instead of the same cunts sitting in the same seats getting older and making the game their own little possession instead of groups of lads gathering organically to behind each goal. Two ends of the ground should've been set aside as non-ST, 100%. Taylor mentioned in his Hillsborough report that all terracing converting to seats should keep similar pricing but that was ignored so anything similar regarding STs would've been equally pied off.

I might get pelters but wtf has having a ST got to do with loyalty points built up? As long as you purchase some tickets from the club in any particular season you should keep them ST or not? It's total bullshit and reinforces this absurd idea that the ST 'holder'* is king of the swingers and everyone else is a relative nobody, often dismissed as a new fan. It makes you laugh, like. *I fucking hate that term and the dipshits who jumped on the bandwagon in the 90s used it all the time. You know the types, would phone up David fucking Mellor after they got shot of baker on 606, 'hello David, great show. I was at the game today, I'm a season ticket holder' said as though it validated their point as a supafan that they were about to make which was usually just a moan about the ref. I've said before when STs became necessary to get to a game then a part of football died and I still stick with it.

Absolutely this. 'well if you been going for years you build up a network to help you get tickets' about away tickets. Well aye, if you're lucky enough to know someone with loads of away points whose happy to let you have their ticket then great but what if you're not? And the fact a group of people in this network just all buy tickets whether they can go or not knowing they have the points for it and someone who'll take it and they think this is ok...... No. I used to have a little bit of time for one of them but he's come out with a couple of pearlers since the takeover. He wasn't as dismissive on the phone when on the want for some money for the trust fund scheme they had.

I agree it should be better but I do chuckle that everyone has been going for years and had season tickets whereas the rest are new and appeared overnight.

If it eliminates multi login devices and is a genuine ballot then I'm not complaining. Also if it's a genuine ballot then registering your interest should be enough rather than being watching your phone at work on the sly for an hour.

".....and while we were playing Seahouses U-23s at the academy of light you were WATCHING THE FUCKING MAGS TAKE ON CHELSEA!!!! IT FUCKING STINKS!!! MAGEDIA CUNT!"

That'll be another mackem fatwa issued, this time to Downie. Needs to reach out to Dawnie at the BBC for advice.

About fucking time. I note the word 'ballot' is mentioned, if they do something where you're given a day to log in and register interest and you're given a number to be drawn later that day or the next followed by an email telling you if you're successful and if so another day to pick a ticket then that would seem a bit fairer to me. If it's the current system it's barely fit for purpose.

Roker park is now new houses with a little park in it. As a homage to their great history what do you think it's called? 'Champions Close'? 'Team of all the talents' drive? No, other than FTM avenue I can't think of a better name. Kudos to the planners......

Half of fucking YouTube must be in that photo with 'the guys'. (Don't forget to hit that like and subscribe button).

Most likely answer.

There was a mackem at our game in America wearing his shirt. Look forward to the RTG interpretation of this.

Thanks for making that clear, Dave.

massive lads fans.

Hope he's ok. 🤞

Like something from lord of the rings. [Barks] 'Come back! Come back! To Mordor we will take you!'
