    Best place/hotel to stay for the final, and best pubs to drink (not the Torch)

    I’ve never been but Freight Island sounds like the sort of place you might be looking for.

    Which player would you most like to see on 24 hours in police custody

    You don’t have to imagine that. ****’s in court more often than Rumpole.

    New Model Army

    I mentioned this in the punk thread. But I got my head caved in when I saw them at The Ritz, probably late 80s. I was wearing a Conflict t-shirt, which probably wasn’t the wisest choice of attire at one of their concerts.

    TV Series

    Seems like I’m in a minority, enjoying the 2nd series of The Last of Us, more than the first. I prefer the gentler pace and continuous story lines to the smash, bang, wallop of the first series. Where every episode was telling a different story from start to finish.

    Emma Raducanu

    I think it’s maybe a British thing. Reasonably successful individual sports people very rarely seem to be particularly well liked by the general public.

    Sky Sports and TNT games on TV 25/26

    No, I don’t think the NFL offer team specific passes, like other American sports do. Not sure of the ins and outs but I think they sell day or season passes. And they still sell some games to broadcasters like CBS and Fox for regular TV.

    Sky Sports and TNT games on TV 25/26

    Sky & TNT are paying approximately £25 million per game on average from next season. On top of that they have all the expense of actually broadcasting the games. While the league just sit back and count the money. If they ever did bring it all in-house, similar to the NFL and sold direct to...

    Season Tickets - 2025/26 | Changes to ticket transfer this season (p101)

    My account- Cup Schemes- Tick the FA Cup box. Be aware though, that unlike previous seasons, where the cut off point for joining was sometime just before the 3rd Round, it seems that next season it’s sometime in June for all three.

    Seat Counters - 2024/25

    I suspect most of the 20 or so people I will be with on Saturday would have paid it if it was their only option. They would have moaned like fuck. Threatened to cancel their ST in disgust. Probably written a strongly worded letter to their MP. But then paid up anyway. Because that’s what they do...

    Sky TV Going Up To £107 a month for multiroom.****Update***** Page 6.

    I see Sky have done away with dishes and boxes now for new punters and just offer a ‘puck’ for you to stream their programmes. Seems on the face of it to be pretty much the same as what the guy down the pub is selling, apart from the legalities of it. Is it inferior to Virgin and their...

    Seat Counters - 2024/25

    You just have to look at regular posts on here and see some of the questions on their Twitter feed, to see some of the shit people are mithering them about on a regular basis.

    Season Tickets - 2025/26 | Changes to ticket transfer this season (p101)

    You 100% can. Two people have one of my junior tickets on their phones since I bought it.

    Referees’ Performances | 2024/2025

    I’m not here to defend the way VAR has gone. I’ve said before that despite being accused of being a VAR sympathiser and even accused of working for PGMOL by one loon. If I was to wake up tomorrow and the whole thing had been abandoned, I’d be quite happy with that. My input here was just to...

    Season Tickets - 2025/26 | Changes to ticket transfer this season (p101)

    As I said.. I’m not denying people like you exist. I was replying to the guy who said that MOST people will find themselves in a similar position. And that the club will have any interest into forcing all ST holders on to a Flexi ST.

    Season Tickets - 2025/26 | Changes to ticket transfer this season (p101)

    The club has got precisely zero to gain by forcing a season ticket holder who goes to every game, which thousands do, on to flexi. In fact, it probably costs them in the extra admin work of having them apply for every game. Nonsense to suggest that MOST won’t be able to meet the criteria at...

    I think you need to re-watch the video to refresh your memory.

    Sky Sports and TNT games on TV 25/26

    I don’t really think it’s that. This way they can have the Cup Final and virtually a full round of league games on the penultimate weekend. They can’t have the Final after the league season finishes, without the season finishing a week earlier. Effectively moving the 5th Round back to a...

    FA Cup Event, Fight Factory (M40 2HJ)

    Sounds like a good night. Might put on my favourite pair of sneakers and head on down for a game of foosball.

    Referees’ Performances | 2024/2025

    FIFA resisted calls for VAR for years. It was pressure from clubs, fans and the media that eventually made them relent.
