  1. Packages were for signing up to 4 games. As a few said on here, at this time of year some could only make 3 which made the package no better value if you didn’t fork out for a membership. Maybe it should have been a 3 game from 4 package but too late now. So thousands of walk ups for SU game at eye watering prices, following on from big turn outs for Oxford/Norwich with big spends on concourses. Fans have been spaffing money like drunken sailors on shirts and other merch. Buying sponsorships, mascots, tours as well as donating to fund raising initiatives. Because some didn’t want to spend £31-41 on a winter afternoon when some are getting the trimmings out then I’m going to give them a pass given what’s gone on at S6 with DC’s fan friendly pricing policy
  2. Harry Kane has an amazing penalty record and yet he missed that one v France in World Cup (after scoring with a pen in same game!!) Pens always favour the taker but even the best can miss. We’ve seen Bannan miss open play pens so whatever taker yesterday could have been hero or zero. If a defender had scored our 2 goals with headers from set pieces then stepped up to take the pen, then I’d be saying it was a bad decision but McNeil is a striker. Pens are confidence and technique. He had the former in spades but less so the latter. It happens. It’s not a conspiracy to punish our long suffering home fans. Move on.
  3. KW said that DC was owed about £28M @25% and rest of creditors make up just under £2M at 25p in pound. So that’s £7-8M owed to local supplies or other businesses who need as much of that back as they can. Punish DC then you also punish them. That’s the administration system. If you know any local businesses who have been waiting to be paid for however long, then you know many are just ticking along. Quite rightly we were all angry when staff weren’t getting paid but seem to park that when it comes to others who did work but received no money for doing so. The higher the bid, the more these small/medium business will get back. Think on that when Ashley/Jordan are making their low offers. True, it is only worth what it is worth, but hopefully the auction means it goes to parties who really want the basket case of a club and it’s mad fans. WAWAW
  4. "Alexa, define 'Entitled'" Enjoy L1 - it could easily become L2 the season after. Just look at Plymouth.
  5. We do. Then text number is on the big screen every match. Not just discrimination but anti-social as well. Found this interesting with the different tariffs of banning. Wonder how may times they have been implemented? https://www.swfc.co.uk/fans/supporter-conduct
  6. "Ashley OUT!" Has a nice ring to it. Just starting early for xmas.
  7. Does the semi-final count as an 'odd game'? Hosted several games - obviously missed the massed ranks of Dutch and Swedish fans around the City.
  8. Our walk is 2.5 hours to ground from south Sheffield. I know that thanks to having zero public transport on Boxing Day matches! Some viable plots this end of the city - just saying (messing)
  9. This will go full on auction. It’s all about raising the most £££ for creditors.
  10. If only there was a thread somewhere to thoroughly debate this.
  11. That was the first season ticket I ever bought myself. £67 in south uncovered seats I believe. That was about the fortnightly giro amount so no board and lodging money for my mum that month. All my family are/were Blunts so they didn't understand. They said I was an obtuse child. What a great season. Thanks for the memories.
  12. Should residents of Vere Road be bracing themselves for bumper property payday if our prospective billionaire overlords decide to redevelop? Whole street wouldn't cost that much in the scheme of things, if you'd got deep pockets.
