I think, and I could be wrong, that this is the crux of Ian’s argument. There’s a huge assumption that ‘loyalty’ is linked to the amount of money someone has put into something. That’s a societal issue, though, which is so deep rooted that a lot of you can’t see it, and why the argument is circular. How do you define loyalty? For a lot of you it’s clearly linked to money where a football club is concerned. That’s fair enough, but there are other ways of thinking about it. I think that’s the point.

Anyone else in period 6 reluctant to put a group application in in case you’re less likely to get tickets if you ask for 6 together? Just seems like common sense to me.

I’m in P6 mate…

Based on this there doesn’t seem any advantage of being online when the ballot opens? As long as you get your application in before the window closes?

Will be interesting to see if it plays out this way, I expect it will, but I also suspect Wilson is a favourite.

I presume the usual website queueing system is in use?

Yeah, when you see him making an effort to pass more, you realise why he normally doesn’t bother, he’s not great at it. I also think he stands out in our team as we tend to lose possession around the opponents box, he loses it much deeper. I think that’s part of why people get on his case.

That’s fair. I just don’t see him getting much time, hard to make an impact when you’re not playing.

Quite a few aspects of his game yesterday reminded me of HBA. The raw pace, natural dribbling ability, quick/accurate first-time passing. And he appears to work really hard out of possession, and is big and physical. In summary, potentially the best player in the world.

Find it hard to believe ASM has a big part to play in this team.

Hi.

It’s worth repeating that the fans are the best and worst thing about NUFC.

I haven’t.

Start this lad.

He did exactly the same when we won our first game of last season, can't remember who it was against but I was in the Gallowgate absolutely fuming that he drowned out the celebrations at the final whistle

Definition of a shit DJ. Doesn't take in to account what's actually happening in the venue, just acts according to a set plan.

As I’ve said before I’ve been on this prick’s case for ages. Was complaining about his post match antics early 2022. He hasn’t got a fucking clue.

Hard agree, Ian. See also, preferential treatment for buying additional match tickets.

Lads can you stop calling the periods pots. Cheers.

To Howe?

Did you clock the AS quote? 'We have the same ambitions as Manchester City in terms of success and trophies'. We all knew it, of course, but confirmation that's what they're selling to new additions.

Going to try to get tickets for me and the bairn but I don’t think it’ll happen. If not, at home on the sofa with him in his full Bruno kit I imagine. Took him to the SF which was nice as his previous cup game (and first game ever) was Cambridge . He’s unbeaten since then though. Brighton, Wolves, Leicester, Brentford, Leeds, Southampton. Little fella’s a good luck charm.

Sorry, I thought the nature of the offence does determine the actual penalty in terms of quantity of games banned?

That was a while back, they've more injury problems since then and have never looked convincing whenever I've seen them. Bruno a big miss but I still fancy us to beat them at SJP.

It does?
