v. Leicester, Savage & Mike Riley 2001. 9 men. 94th minute equaliser. I'd have happily strangled Riley with one of Savage's dismembere legs.
No lack of atmosphere there.
There were great days at Burnden. Many but let's not overlook the dull, lifeless, defeats against Hartlepool & Exeter. Rain pouring through roofs, standing 2" of piss going for a slash in an ever reducing terracing ... nor the fckg Normid.
This. From the 30th second onwards. Savage having to be taken off by Dave Basset for "his own safety" 2 nil down, own goal by Ricketts, dow to 9 men, Nolan bags one, then Ricketts 94th minute equizer, like we'd won the premier league, nobody seemed to leave early and it was a crazy atmosphere, everybody wanted to kill Riley and Savage. The LC fans fans that were there looked terrified.
Another on was V Spurs 2005 I think we won 3-1. No idea why but after 10 minutes the whole fround was rocking, chanting from every side. Everyone chanting "Dioufff!" every 30 seconds or so. I'm sure theres a few more.

I honestly thought the club had reserved them for schools or giveaways etc but all makes sense now.

Probably not, it's free money, as the ground is never full anyway.
True! Although should we reach the promised land of the Prem again or go on a great run in the championship we might pretty much sell out the odd home game in the home end, surly thats restricting some revnue to the club with these seats beening the kids Ghost seats
at least I know why there never available now.
-
Cheers everyone, thats all a bit clearer. Nice that you still get physical card. As for the Ghost seats, it must be costing the club a few bob that. I'll get a couple of seats and turn up in the East Lower near the north stand and its deserted but online only a couple of seats remain dotted around and everytime Ive been the last couple of years.

Just bought 2 season tickets in East upper, not had a season ticket for 3/4 seasons due to demands with the Kids at weekends etc, had to pick games, usually Tuesday night ones, should have more weeknds free next season. Couple of questions, are the season tickets all digital now, im guessing they are. I've got 2 Audult tickets, if I can't go is it easy to give them to someone else if Digital (Screen shot etc?) Not sure how it all works in the last couple of seaosns.
Also when do get to swap seats, I know they do a day or two usually, where people who've not reneweed etc seats become free. Whenever I go the match theres loads of free seats on the East stand lower near the north stand, empty rows galour, but never for sale on the site when buying???
Cheers in advance.

Might be different for a night game, but vs Bristol Rovers it was self service.
Big table full of cheese, crackers, cooked meats etc, another full of desserts, then someone serving soup and then a line of bains-marie full of hot food for your main courses, all served by staff.Cheers Traf, Im a greedy bastard, will they let me have seconds

Food is self-service, but plenty to go at.
Beer etc is table service, but they're not very quick, so better to go to the bar yourself.
Seating is in the padded seats behind the dug-outs but in front of the directors.
Parking, you just tap your reg details into the terminal inside club reception.
Worth £120pp? Probably not in real life, but for a football offering, it's reasonable IMO.Cheers Traf, didn't know it was self serice as it said 4 course meal I just presumed it was all served up to you.
I'll make sure I go up to the bar then.
Cheers for the info, hopefully it won't be too bad and she'll enjoy it.

I've not hospitality for years at our ground, last time was under Reebok back in the day. Anyway Ive just booked the 1877 for the Tuesday night game against Wycombe for me and wife (Can bea nice valentines day present for her). Honest reviews of whats like, food etc. Worth £120 each? It says I get parking too, I'm guessing you posted out actual ticket instead of the eticket thing? Any "revoews" of it would be appriciated.
-
Kevin Nolan, one of our own. Scoring at old Trafford 2 seasons running and us winning. Nearly crippling Robbie Savage away at Blackburn Monday night in 2005 with a two footed tackle. Loved him, gutted when he left, honestly thought he was one of the top midfielders in the country, wasn't a shit bag either.
-
Rico is out by the looks of it, IE said he probably won't make the bench this week, al though the injury on his ankle not a serious as first thought. I'll take a draw now. I though we played well against Boro, but honestly thought we weren't at the races against Burton and we all know about Wigan...

I wonder if some of them give it to charity?
Was watching a Ben Foster pod cast and they a few England players on, they don't ask to get paid for playing for England but get fee's, they all give it to charity, different ones every year. It's an unwritten rule that they all sign up for it. So in a nutshell, yeah they all give it charity apparently.

This cannot be a serious question?
Not only was the man a colossal bellend, he was also completely and utterly shambolic in everything he did from tactics and gameplay to transfers.
Exactly!

I've had a few of these fines for one reason or another over the years.... here's my take. Unless its council land or the police who fine you Ive NEVER ever once paid one these private company fines, they tries to my MRs for over parking 4 minutes on Mattalan in Bury. I got done at Tescos in Horwich once, and the newish retail park in Rawtenstall a couple of years ago. They write to you every month or two with varying degrees of threats and in different gusies (basically paper shuffling to another desk in the same office that writes under a different debt recovery name). They use big bright yellow and red letters FINAL warning etc, we MAY prosecute etc.
Fact is unless they send you a court summons (it usually costs them more than the fine to start one) don't bother responding, I find after around 3 years they give up. I was prepared to go to court and see if a judge thinks £100 for 4 minute overstay on sunday in an empty car park is 'reasonable'. So my advice until a court summons comes through (99.9% wont!) stick it in the bin. They can only go for CCJ's etc in a court and thats if you don't turn up. One of my fines started at £100 wen't up to £50 after 2 years, then down to £60 to settle immediatly, to final offer of £30. Most people are terrified by the wording and cough up, they make mllions off this. Also thoug, if the police or council fine you, just pay it if its your fault, they will take you to court and go for CCJs etc, bailifs.

Tranmere, Mike Riley, Barry Knight, Alan Stubbs, Robbie Savage.... add to list of hated twats.

There is a way of sorting the issue. I will dig out the steps you need to take and send it you mate 👍🏼
Esco, can you send me the same please, Im in the EXACT same boat, MStreams, Virgin and Surfshark. Much appricited.

We might be one down, but plenty of possession and going forward. I like what I’ve seen so far, we’ve watched a lot worse dross than this. Sort out some silly mistakes and we’ve got a decent team here I reckon.

I’ve paid my tenner and just got receipt. I’m on a countdown screen now. I’m guessing link appears Before kick off? And you have to sign in or is it the purchase ID from the receipt you need to put in? Never used this Ifollow thing before so apologies if being stupid.

Michael Ricketts
Lazy cunt but looked like a world beater.
A few years later, he looked like a wife beater.
Was amazing for us until the England talk / Call up. As Steejay said, he had Wes Brown all over the shop at OT in 2001, we scored late on, he got it over Browns head and then stroked it past Bartez. Bolton fans refusing to leave the ground singing "Can we play every week" Beat them the year after too 1-0 - Nolan steals the ball of Beckham and smash!. i remember Ruud VN hitting the bar and united smashing us for the rest of the match but we hung firm. I think it was beamed back to the Reebok as well! Great days...

Kevin Nolan - don't think he was ever as good elsewhere as he was for us.
He was decent for Newcastle - 29 goals for 80 odd appearances. 1 in 3. Better than his record for us and wasn't he half decent for west ham?
New Hospitality
in Terrace Talk
Posted
Got 2 new season tickets this year after picking games I could attend the last few years. Can the upgrading of a season ticket be done online, or is a call to Hospitality to do it, or is wait until the season ticket has been issued and then a call. Also can you pay it up over the 10 months or whatever it is? LOV is £870 per ticket inc VAT for the season x 2 is £174 a month over 10 months (if they do it), or is it pay it up all at once for hospitality?
Sorry, that all sounds very confusing.
Cheers
