Agree completely. Just hope the ref gives us a fair crack!

His kicking is much, much worse than KD's kicking. 9 times out of ten KD sends kicks accurately towards their target. Bart's are a complete lottery.

:yawn:

You. Don't. Understand.

Yes and we would have to be demanding that tickets are £60 or something. Seems a bit too nuanced for Dune though.

Give it up.

Indeed, which is why I don't think they should be allowed a "plus one".

I told them. I've been telling everyone. Glad someone has finally listened.

I didn't bother going in '09 because it seemed obvious it would be embarrassing and depressing. This time I am more optimistic.

Seems pretty clear that all parties want Guly to sign for us but that there may be a hitch that is outside Guly's control and ours and Cesena's. That would be a right bugger. The important thing is to reach a resolution asap as if he doesn't sign we will need to sign someone else.

No it wasn't. Shrewsbury has been and gone. Your thread was about Man U pricing and was referring back to the Shrewsbury match in an attempt to adduce a premise on which the pricing should be decided. Your thinking was flawed but, in any event, was no more or less germane to any of the other ticketing threads as it was to your own.

I wouldn't "rest" anyone from the start (although there is bound to be an element of horse-for-courses in relation to the two games) as we won't have played a match in the previous seven days.

Oldham, new Saints.

Were there or were there not several threads all talking about the same thing? I'll answer.... yes there were. Good modding.

I wouldn't bother for £40 - it's not worth nearly twice a league match to me.

What is annoying is that we are bound to get one of the "star" refs who is on first name terms with all of their players but considers himself above us. Mike Riley did United proud the last time we played them.

I don't think so. They may put out a weakened side and, even if they don't, they really are nothing special at the moment IMO (with the exception of Nani). Obviously if the likes of Rooney and Berbatov play and decide to play well they should be able to cause us damage but equally I can see Saints scoring against a back 4 including the likes of Evans, Rafael, Smalling... If the back 4 includes Ferdinand, Vidic and Evra things may be a little harder! The key battle will be in midfield and it'll be interesting to see how we line up. We are probably one of the best ever third tier sides and we are probably better than several sides in the Championship. If we catch them on a slightly off day and play well I honestly think we can win this one.

Owen looked sharp today.

He'll just hack him once and concede a free-kick. Hack him a second time and get booked. Then hack him again as often as he wants and nothing will happen.

But several of us have explained to you why it is irrelevant and there were several threads on basically the same subject.

Sorry, I was making a joke that was predicated on a confusion between "1/2" meaning "1 or 2" and "1/2" meaning "one half". I thought it was fairly obvious as no one attends "half a game" and so didn't need a winky. Apologies if I have caused you to spend a fiver unnecessarily!

Can I nick it? Yes, you can! Can I nick it? Yes, you can.

Yes, I know what you mean. Ever since the Cup Final I have always been fortunate enough to delegate my ticket purchasing responsibilities to a mate and consider anything which prevents me from obtaining a ticket for any match I choose at a price convenient to me to be something of a disgrace.

Eh? Do you want means-tested ticket prices? Penalise the richer fans? WTF? You don't pay less for a loaf of bread in Tesco if you're skint.

I don't really see why ST's should get a "plus one". It's a gesture of thanks by the club when it happens but there's no sensible principle behind it.
