Did they discuss the handball on MOTD?

It’s not out of principle. They just don’t enjoy it anymore. It’ll be a combination of things I guess. The price, rhe crap atmosphere, the weird fans we have, the fact that the club don’t seem to want working class blokes in their 30s and 40s as fans, perhaps growing up a bit and realising there is more to life than football, plus the pretty crap home form all these things lumped together and youve got a very expensive hobby that isn’t as much fun as it used to be. from personal experience I gave up my season ticket at the of the season 9 years ago when I moved up north. Once I’d got out of the habit of going I didn’t miss it and now every time I go it’s a reminder of why I dont Miss it. Like any sort of business once your customer stops coming regularly and finds other things to do it’s hard work getting them back when you need them

Great to hear, glad they enjoyed their day.

Unfortunately that’s what happens when you’ve got people running a business that don’t understand their customer base. Semmens is a marketing guy and Steele comes from a media and aviation background. They’re both polished middle class boys who come across well but you can see they don’t just get it in terms of how to deal with a customer base of mainly working class people from a working class city in a passionate industry of football. How ever much they want to promote rainbow saints wish everyone happy Eid and do surveys on how much fans earn they lifeblood of this club is its working class roots. They seem to want to do all they can to cut these off and promote corporates and day trippers whilst allianating the traditional support. Most people I used to go with don’t bother anymore I think pretty much all of they would cite that’s it’s just not enjoyable anymore as the main reason and that isn’t due to the standard of football, we watched some absolute rubbish in the 90s and championship days. Still I doubt they really care as long as we stay in the premier league and have a ground 90% full they probably don’t really care who is paying to be there

On their own ticketing policy 5.10 Any attempt to gain access to the Ground wearing or carrying apparel (including, without limitation, hats and/or scarves) that demonstrate support for the Visiting Club, may result in admission being refused or you being ejected from the Ground and in such circumstances no refund or alternative seat will be offered. so they are breaking their own rules by allowing fans in wearing away shirts although they’ll probably hide behind it says “May” joke of a club
-
Is it still on the tickets as being against ground regulations for away fans to be on the home areas? It used to be and any found risk being ejected
-
Ex copper and worked at Millwall what do you expect?
-
I have never known another club treat it’s traditional fan base with such condescending contempt whist bending over backwards to help away fans and monitory groups

Haaland scores again, hatrick for him. What a signing he’s going to be for city
-
9 come on one more!
-
FFS Liverpool get it sorted
-
Haaland, that’s 4 in 4 now.
-
Never thought I’d say this but come on Liverpool!
-
Haven’t they won there the last two seasons?
-
Yep you could see today he wasn’t quite at it fully, few misplaced passes, lost balls, loose touches he needs 6-7 games to get going
-
Before we get carried away with what we believe was a good saints performance we need to remember that before this United had lost 7 consecutive away games, this just continues our record of saints being a team you want to play when you need a win.
-
Appears to have it all. We’ll do well to keep him for more than 2 seasons. Will go to a top club for very big money
-
Can’t help but feel it was a missed opportunity, replace the pointless Elyanoussi with someone else and we win that IMO
-
I watched it in the hotel bar and was all in Italian it was the best commentary I’ve heard in long time!
-
When does he ever not? 🤣
-
He’s a nothing player. He doesn’t effect the game at all. I’m not really sure what he offered and why he keeps getting picked
-
Yep agree with that. Didn’t really do enough to win it but didn’t deserve to lose either. De Gea had one save to make which was right at him. Adams is great at holding the ball up and bringing others in but doesn’t get in behind enough. Arguably could have had a penalty but we really didn’t threaten very much Can’t blame Ralph for starting with that team aside from Elyanoussi who didn’t effect the game whatsoever and surprised he stayed on as long as he did. But in hindsight an extra body up front to get at them would have made a difference, they were vulnerable when we got at them but too often Adams was isolated up front. thought A Armstrong looked a threat out wide and that two centre halves looked excellent, pace power and ability on the ball. Love the look of Mara too, looks a class act and will be a player once he’s settled in as I said above good to see Mctominney getting bullied losing out physically a few times too often in the past that’s been us

Losing one nil and he brings on a centre back for an attacking player FFS
