Sad state of affairs when I've already ruled out going to this. There was a time, not very long ago, when it would never have entered my head not to be there on Boxing Day, home or away. Just not feeling it right now...and the more shite like yesterday gets served up, the less I can see the old enthusiasm returning.

They weren't the ticket prices I saw the other day.

 

I've just checked, it is £5 for under 12.

 

Our club are shit at this.

 

Adult £23

Under 18 or student £16

Under 12 £5

I don't mind paying £28 for the two of us, considering she doesn't watch much of the match, but I'm not paying £39.

Plus the online ticketing thing is broken again.

I know, twats.

 

I'm going to drive tomorrow to pick up our lot.

 

No chance of it arriving in the post now anyway.

Don't deserve our support

 

If you missed quotation marks around support then I agree.

I is out, saving pennies and brownie points for Feb/March aways and late play off charge.

 

 

Bolton to win - both teams to score

Mate has somehow talked me into braving the sunshine bus with my stinking post-Christmas hangover

few places on our coach... about 15 -17 quid

Probably in unless weather is horrific.

 

Just seen it is £15 per adult for Derby's visit a few days later and over 7,000 Derby fans are travelling. Some mad followings in this league when the price is right!

I am now in as I will be driving back from Lincoln Boxing Day.  Haven't missed a Boxing Day game for years, but I have been a bit of a shit fan this year.  Planning more aways before the end of the season.

I am out, fucking family party

We're not talking about folk who miss a few games were talking about fans who disappear completely when the going gets tough. The mid 80s were a prime example 5000 fans kept the club alive, the 20 odd thousand who enjoyed the last 15-20 years can thank those who did not throw the towel in when times got hard and I don't mean anything like today's problems on a completely different scale back then.

 

 

There might only have been 5k who kept going but ask ANYONE from that time and no one will admit they fucked it off until we were back to the good days.

 

It will be the same in 10 years time. Everyone who fucks it off now because we're shit will be back for the good days claiming they never stopped.

 

I wasn't there for the last real dark days but if we have more bad days to come I sure as fuck will be now.

 

 

Bollocks.

 

I'm 28 and pretty sure the time Sam took over and the last days of Colin Todd were Utter bogwank at the nether regions of the championship... Hmm you may be right actually Dids

 

I would say the worst team / squad we've had for 22 years since Rioch took over all those years ago from Phil Neal. Anyone who disagrees I'd be happy to be proved wrong, so send me a worse one if you can find it.

 

However still no reason not to get to the matches when you can, have a few pints, eat a few pies, sing a few songs, boo, have a piss take with your mates, whatever, anything other than sitting around in the house over Xmas watching crap on TV

I'd rather queue at barnsley than do the 90-min round trip.

Barnsley and Leicester bought. The middlebrook is not fun today

Picked up x5 at lunch, the first car has been filled, now working on the second.

Im just going to go today.

 

I'll feel better when I'm in the pub in Barnsley and not sweating about tickets.

don't work too hard, that'll mean me driving.

get on our  coach

Fuming, got to ticket office, stopped selling at 2pm, couldn't see that advertised anywhere.

 

They said we always stop at 2pm day before a match.

I said are you open tomorrow? Why not stop at 2pm tomorrow, that's the equivalent of a Friday at 2pm.

Twats.

I'll phone up so we can collect at Barnsley rather than queuing for pay at gate.

What a waste of an hour.

Ticket office out.

I thought I read that there were cash turnstiles. Can't see the queues being long. Probably jinxing it.  Will be paying on the day
