Up here all the footy fans I know are chuffed for him.

They won't sack him, they can't afford to!

Just watched the 2nd Star Trek film. General consensus was 30mins too long & not as good as the 1st. 5/10

CVA, Robinson etc.

So they keep saying.

It was an utterly awesome experience and worth every single penny.

Hugh Fisher when I was a mere slop of a lad.

I love that man.

Watched series 1 episode 1. Intriguing.

I don't disagree with adults for a £10 scenario, but it's also about capturing the next generation of fans.

Tickets for my lad & I now happily sorted.

Plenty IMHO. 19.30 KO with kids for a £1 would have seen loads as dad's/kids would have sold it to mum as a "one off". Happens all over the country bar our corner of Hampshire.

Blimey, I'd forgotten about Lords being the same day.

Yep. ST holder offered to get adults & kids ticket for me as they wanted the points so they used the online system to do so & I ping the ££ over to them. They then get a phone call, what 7 days after buying them, to say that the can't have the U17 ticket as it was bought on an adult ST. No way I'm paying £42 for my nipper so the two adult tickets have now been sold on, I've got my ££ back but I've no match tickets. My 11yo has done 37 different away grounds in the last 4 seasons following Saints but because we've had to give up our STs we can't get to an away game.

I'm after an adults & a kids if you have them. My email is st16sfc@gmail.com

Northern do but I thought I'd use a forum members ST numbers so they'd get the points for the London games. Lesson learned. Left with no tickets bar my pre-booked train!

If anything it highlights just how stupid the current ticketing process is for away games. I'll be using Northern Saints only for away game tickets from now on.

One of the best compliments I've ever heard regarding Saints was from a youth coach at Port Vale when he said that our academy and attitude to youth is so greatly admired across the country because we play young players, not because we have to, but because we want to.

I've just downloaded season 1 so will watch it over the weekend. Better be good.

Not sure I agree with that part, although I do with the general sentiment. In my experience teachers fight tooth and nail, especially the SENCO teams, to help all SEN kids but in some cases are simply overwhelmed. In addition, they are now much more clued up regarding ADHD, Aspergers etc. Sill a long way to go though.

Used to be excellent, with a top notch red light zone, apparently.

Lucky I teach maths. Probably shouldn't have called them that but as I'd had to deal with one spitting in the face of a 55yo LSA & threatening to ra.pe her simply because she asked him to take his hat off left me in a foul mood. Not aided my the mother saying "she looks like she needs a good fu.cking" in front of the boy in question. Today was better. Today I had a young lady ask me if I'd ever been eaten by a shark and another one ask me if mermaids were real animals.

You know they've got it wrong when they don't reach general sale.

Where I teach they use internal exclusions as they are a punishment which we can control where external exclusions (which are virtually impossible to get anyway) usually result is them slobbing about as parents don't give a toss. 99.99% are hoddie rats that are no more than oxygen thieves.

DSRs only apply to ebay sales from those registered as a company, not a private seller such as Hatch. Anyone who thinks any buyer can't get a refund because of the reasons Nolan posted clearly hasn't a clue how the system works. On another note, never accept paypal for an item that is collection only. It's a recipe for a classic con.
