However, I’m starting to wonder why we bother with ours, after the announcement to move Scott Wharton out again. Probably the reason is that they are frightened to death of asking the Premier League if they can Quote

The expression that always comes to mind with him 'If you think everyone else is the problem, it's probably you'. SC just expects to be able to jump into a job at the top without working lower leagues, being an assistant somewhere or making any effort whatsoever. This is obviously the next step after coaching at Arsenal, taking his badges and then his role with Belgium. Still a risky appointment in my opinion but he deserves a crack at management somewhere - same cannot be said for the biggest ego in London. Quote

As a pundit Henry basically came across as a French Alan Shearer, just stating the obvious repeatedly. Although there was also this moment: But who knows, it could work out for him. Or it could end up like Zola at Birmingham. Zola at Big Club went through my mind as well. Quote

Doubt it ,think it will be the same as non TV games, which I believe is at the tax payers expense unless police enter the ground then costed accordingly.

SBlue Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 Ugh. I find Holloway the definition of a gobshite. Hopefully he'll win me round. 1 Quote
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted July 24, 2018 Moderation Lead Posted July 24, 2018 I've never understood why people buzz off him so much, I find him incredibly annoying, me! Quote
SBlue Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 It's cos he acts the clown. People love that for some reason... BoJo for example. Quote

Comes across as an utter buffoon - and it's a shame, as when it comes to football I think he has a solid handle on the game and how to build a half-decent team. You wouldn't think it from listening to him though. Quote
Oldgregg86 Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 I like Holloway. It is an entertainment business after all Quote

skous18 Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 Does anyone know if the tickets for the Ipswich game have been sold out? Cant seem to get any online. Should i give the office a call? Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) They'll have plenty, ring them. Looking at the club's Twitter it seems that the online ticketing site has been playing up for weeks - Waggott's never going to get his bonus for hitting the stretch target for ST sales at this rate!

The stadium plan on the season ticket section of the website has been out of order for weeks. The club were aware of it yet still hasn't been fixed. Meanwhile the stadium plan for the Liverpool and Everton games is working. Makes me wonder whether they want it fixed as when it is people can count the number of tickets sold, and we know they aren't keen on that information being readily available. Waggott reckoned last week we could shift another 1500 season tickets at full price on the back of incoming signings. If he thinks a couple of teenagers on loan from Southampton and City are going to get people queuing on Nuttall Street for tickets he's very much mistaken. Quote
skous18 Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 Wow, very amateurish. Gave them a call and got my tickets ordered. Hope we sign a player or two (or 5) before the game Quote
Tugay's Right Foot Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 Some of the big ones like Derby and Villa are going to have untested managers. Hopefully it ends in tears, for our own sake ? Quote
