  1. Hope it's behind the other goal mate. If it turns a bit nasty there's nowhere to run as they're packed in like sardines UEFA have relaxed their rules as well so their capacity is no longer reduced to 65k for European games so there'll be 81,000 there, 25,000 of those in the yellow wall.
  2. Best of luck, even though his membership was also showing on my account once I realised I had to log into his account before it would let me download his it worked straight away.
  3. Have you checked that you've logged out of your own account and logged into theirs before downloading them? Obviously you'll all have your own supporter number. That's where I was going wrong at first.
  4. Give Percy Main a go mate. Think it's 3 quid to get in and the lad will be free. They've got a bar there now and have done a bit of work to their ground by all accounts. As I said earlier a fair few North Shields fans have deflected to them and they are pulling in 3 figure crowds. I'd imagine they'll be the best supported team in tbe Alliance now Blue Star aren't there.
  5. I know he was at the end of season Presentation night but don't think he attends many games these days. 201 there on Saturday with nice weather to tempt people along. They'll be down to 150 during the winter from a 400+ average 3/4 seasons ago. My mate renewed his season ticket but says the 4 lads he used to stand with have all stopped going and they have been there since the Wearside League days.
  6. This basically. They knew last summer that they needed to improve the ground otherwise they'd be demoted. They waiting until March then declared they'd need to raise £45k to get the work done so started a go fund page. By this time people were becoming pretty cynical and they only raised just over 4k which they've pocketed and done nothing to the ground other than put a few flagstones down next to the womes bogs according to my mate who watches them. They've had £1000s upon £1000s gone into that club over the past decade. The Vase win, 400 average gates, lots of loyal sponsors yet have spent nothing on improving the ground/facilities. Even the clubhouse was funded by grants. Absolute joke of a club.
  7. Doesn't go on straight away but the point is awarded regardless. Until there becomes a time when our ticketing system can "talk" to opposition clubs ticketing systems then it won't change.
  8. There's no reason to watch North Shields these days that's the sad fact. They have no ambition and their "ground" is an absolute disgrace. No protection from the elements for the paying supporters amd the general facilities are woefully inadequate. My mate used to stand underneath the conifers beyond the bottom goal when it was raining and they even chopped those down Plus their chairman Matthews is a bitter mackem prick. My mate reckons a few of their fans asked him if he would put Sheff Utd v Everton on in the clubhouse, and he told them to do one and put Sunderland on instead. How to keep the fans onside after that shitshow of the summer eh?
  9. Loads have wrapped in. I know of 6 Shields fans who have now bought season tickets at Percy Main instead. Most of their "Ultras" have stopped going now. Ultimately the club are reaping what they've sewn.
  10. Could clearly see a big block of empty seats on TV, towards the back of the away end at the left of you looked towards it as well as plenty others dotted around. Sad to see really but that's the road the club want to go down.
  11. Our forward players seen to have a real problem with hitting the target.
  12. Few mates who were at Man City said it was a very different away end to what we've had in the past.
  13. After watching that I'm confident of beating Dortmund. Flicked it over and watched Milan for a while. They look a lot better.
  14. Roma was the same back in 99. Pubs wouldn't serve alcohol on the day of the game. Luckily a helpful local directed us to his mates bar which was a bit out of the way and we sat and drank in there all afternoon until it was time to head to the meeting point for the buses to take us to the stadium.
  15. Definitely think Dortmund is the most attractive out of the 3 for travelling without a ticket. Don't think the Italians, specifically their police will be too accommodating towards ticketless fans, and Paris could potentially be worse again.
  16. Aye they were proper cowards. Picking off individuals or small groups of 2s and 3s. Didn't want to know when the numbers were even or just slightly in their favour and absolutely shat it afterwards. Similar to Roma was really. Must be an Italian trait.
  17. I went to Marseille in 2004. Was no bother really. Police were OK other than walking us through what appeared to be an abandoned warehouse to get us in and out of the ground. We didn't stay in Marseille because we were advised it would be too dangerous (more to do with the large Algerian population) so stopped in Cannes instead. Tbh I've been to France a few times, including Paris, and it's not really a place I've ever enjoyed visiting. My experiences of Germany and Italy have been far better. Certainly PSG would be the least appealing away game out of the 3 for me.
  18. Their entire business plan revolves around relying on bigger clubs letting them borrow players that they would never be able to buy for themselves. Burstow is this seasons Diallo.
  19. An idea of some of the away allocations we are likely to recieve.
  20. Copenhagen are dross. Swap them with Red Star Belgrade and I'd say that's the easiest group.
  21. I'd be quite happy with that and moving Joelinton back over to the left of the attack and switching Gordon to the right (Isak through the middle). The lad will soon be 21 and probably feels he needs more time on the pitch.
