For comparison and/or extrapolation.....here's the floodlight stats for Man City's stadium: Q. What wattage are the floodlights? A. There are approximately 218 floodlights in the stadium each using 2000 watts. In total they produce 436,000 watts then they are all on - roughly the amount produced by 130 kettles being on at the same time! Over to the mathematicians to work out the 'per season' spend....

Sod it....we're coming to the game...just about to book tickets.....Trousers you mad fool....

What I can't understand them continuing to do (for all games) is not having a junior price (£6) for the whole stadium. I went to book tickets for me and the boy yesterday and thought..."hmmm, would be nice to sit near the half way line for once"....only to be put off by the lack of junior priced tickets for the main stands. Once can understand having such a policy when the ground is full but these days? It only takes a little imagination and flexibility to make your customers feel wanted. As it is, I'm now having second thoughts on going. Petty reason I know in the general scheme of things but it's little things like this that hack people off one-by-one at the end of the day....

I'm guessing they thought they could squeeze a few bob out of people by retaining the £6 junior price. Theory being that families are more likely to come along anyway due to it being half term and wouldn't need any other enticement.....interesting 'gamble'....

This club is going down the pan. (Anyone else noticed that?) Trousers in state the obvious shocker

From what I've read on here over the years, I've always seen him as one of the good guys....I doubt he would be the decision maker for match day pricing policy?

He didn't react, other than stopping posting. His last post coincided with the day that 'all' was revealed....I say "all'....but I never did get the reason why he was doing what he was doing. I think he's a genuine Saints supporter but I'm still not sure what the motive was behind his 'Lord Lowe' crusade.....perhaps he genuinely meant it??! I think others on here 'got it' more than I ever did/will....

According to all sources...."Scooby" was a one time film director called Andrew. His 'wind ups' were part of some elaborate 'project'. I never did get the punchline mind you.

I think "he" probably got more yellows than Elton John and Dorothy out of the Wizard of Oz combined.....although I suspect "he" was given a suspended sentence before the ban kicked in....

He's banned

+ 1 :(

It beggars belief that they haven't come up with anything innovative to get more families along to this game given it's half term. Perhaps they don't realise that 'customers' have become as apathetic as their marketting department?

Was it "Double Dutch" by Malcolm Mclaren?

Was it "It's the end of the world as we know it" by REM?

And retrospectively, one assumes, for the other 67 times "he's" said the same or similar in recent weeks?

Relax. He's not real

"Hello, is that Mr Allen? Hi. Just a quick call to say thanks for your offer to buy my shares at 20p each. Too low I'm afraid. 50p and you've got yourself a deal. No? OK, well thanks for your interest."

Quiz time.... What's slower? The rate at which Saints accumulate points or the rate at which the mods allow Sundance Beast to accumulate infractions ?

You've got to hand it to him. That Mr Allen chap has been a very patient man.

PC World is still open. They do scanners. Hurry, early closing on Sundays. Thanks.
