Eddie Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) 4 minutes ago, Dr. Feelgood said: It's quite an injury list we have at the moment. Not as bad as 12m ago but it shows the current squad depth that we'refunctioning at all. The bench was good too in the circumstances. This is where the depth pays off. If anything, the number of options and therefore constant changes earlier in the season could have been (and probably was) an issue. However, the fact that we can still put out a strong team, and have a couple of options on the bench, with the injury list that we’ve got shows the real benefit to finally having squad depth.

globaldiver Posted December 18, 2022 Author Share Posted December 18, 2022 Is it still the case that clubs decide how they report attendances? I assumed safety regs might prevail? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1083630/The-truth-modern-day-attendances-How-clubs-count-missing-fans.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all basically go with 'tickets sold'. They will also have a record of how many are physically in the stadium, but that doesn't have to be made available in public.

Yes there was a freedom of information request, though it was only for Manc cock waving purposes. Ironically neither of them came out of it particularly well.

Johnnyrotten Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) 9 hours ago, Dr. Feelgood said: A stock 2-0, could easily have been more, is always nice. It suggests a comfortable win. The sort successful sides rack-up as the season progresses. Also ... 1. Not conceding early 2. Scoring early ourselves. Hardly rocket science but shows how important this is. This could have been written after the last game we scored first at home. Lincoln, another 2-0, another flat atmosphere against a team with nothing up front, dull 2nd half but 3 points. As that game showed, it means nothing for the games to follow unfortunately, every game is different and its about the fine margins.

Fucking ace. First half brilliant, second half felt like we were on the back foot and never comfortable, but as others have said, they never really looked like scoring so job well done over all. 👍 From Bolton Wanderers Lotteries Quote Don't forget to check your Golden Goal ticket/s purchased at the game against Exeter City on Saturday ! As yet no-one has come forward to claim the £500. The winning time was 07 mins 43 secs. If it is not claimed by the deadline it will roll over to £1,000 at the Derby County game on Tuesday 27th December 2022. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can they know the winning ticket has been sold and not yet claimed? I mean, I doubt they sell out of them and unless someone has physically gone through the remaining tickets and checked all times on each to see if the winner was one of them, but I can't see someone doing that 🤔 they're a fooking ball ache to open, I always get ma nephew to do it. Or am I being a bit thick here? That is entirely possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted December 19, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted December 19, 2022 Do they have a qr code or bar code on them? Maybe they are scanned afterwards so they know which have been sold- quicker than a manual check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boogs Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Ah OK. So it does roll over then when "not claimed". Maybe ive been unlucky it wasnt a roll over then. I wouldn't have thought it gets won all that often with it being so specific, as in, to the second. Fuck it, I'm thinking to much into it. I've won 500 quid just in time for some Christmas piss ups. I'm not complaining 🥳🍻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Cheese Posted December 19, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted December 19, 2022 Got a bus home once. Think it was a friendly against Preston, and the stadium got struck by lightning so the match was abandoned, then the trains were cancelled. @gonzo might even have been on it.
