marple whites Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Portsmouth have still sold 1500 for Wigan - train strike or not. for a local game I am surprised and we haven’t got the larger end either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the fuck would you know anything about a “normal person”? Lunatic. You think Laurence Fox is "funny as fuck", and you instinctively slag off everyone and everything to do with the football club you 'support'. I reckon that's pretty abnormal behaviour.

radcliffe white Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Train strike is a poor excuse like I’ve said before loads of options if you look about looks like it will be just shy of selling out, our away sales this season have been slow sellers so far perhaps folk are feeling the pinch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itdiddidit? Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 I'm in as a late decision. As are a few I know who were picking Barnsley over this one. There'd be plenty moaning about away day priority sales if it had sold out in a few hours and a few dipped out. Best of both worlds I'd say, the not quite selling out, option for those who get the urge to go to make that call today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattbwfc19 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 'What worries about me for this game is that Bolton have 2 strikers that if we give them a chance they will take it.' Interesting take from someone on Vale ways🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting take from someone on Vale ways🤔 Or "what pleases me about this game is we just need to stop 1 player (Charles) and the other players can't hit a barn door away from home" 😆 Concerning that our "top scorers" in the last 6 months away, have Shoretire joint 2nd.

Put another way will the knob heads outnumber the other fans and will it be an enjoyable day? I've not done a local away for a while so only going off anecdotes but I wonder if a few have tired of it a bit, in fact I know a few have, its just a question of how many and if that's a reason for not selling out.

captainmed Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 After our first 11 games (7 at home!!) we have got to be getting 20 points minimum. Anything less is a disappointing start given the home bias. That means getting at least 6 points from the next 3 games. 1-1 tomorrow for me.

We have no more “knob heads” than any other club contrary to popular belief. They have a fair few, it’s a big game for them & subsequently PV away can be tasty. If we win it will be enjoyable and if we lose it won’t be. We haven’t sold out because of a mixture of our recent poor form and the train strike although it’s a fair trek to the station.

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted September 29, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted September 29, 2023 3000 is very similar to last seasons following and we struggled to sell out the day we could have won promotion, think we had around 3800 that day. 3k is par for the course. No idea what to expect result wise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitesince63 Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 I hope JDC is back today, he’d be a big miss if not under the present circumstances. We can all understand that family come first so let’s hope his wife and new little one are home and well and he can get back to his day job. If not though, who replaces him? Will IE trust Matheson or will it be Ashworth turn, or will he play Ashworth on the left and switch Randell to the right where he’s played often? I’m not a big fan of making multiple moves for one absence so I’d stick with Matheson who actually is a couple of years older than Zac and arguably more experienced. I think it’s time he got his shot, especially after Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want Evatt having to trot out "some of our players looked tired" crap again after this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
