All depends how safe the club plays it. I’m still of the opinion phase 1&2 will be split 50/50. Therefore 7k ballot winners choosing from 14k seats. No chance no one can sit in their group sizes at that ratio surely. Don’t forget the club system chooses who is successful. Probably have an algorithm to allow so many of each group size being successful. So the bigger the group the less chance of success.

Just added a bit to my original point but if they’ve thought it through (like I have) logically then it should be fine. So (approx figures) if 14k the regular tickets on sale per game they will just sell 10k in ballot and 4K in first come first served but the 10k will have the choice of 14k seats. Not 10k. 4K leftover will be then filled by those queuing two days later. We’ll find out how it goes. Groups of six will have to be quick off the draw possibly but even if not should be fairly safe sat as a six. Or compromise and find two better lots of three etc.

Not really. They would’ve had to of ran with this behind close doors to fit different groups in during ballot last year. The price of offering choice of seat instead of letting the club choose will be fairly minute if any. Think the biggest difference will be the quality of the seats available in phase two as you’d think phase one will pick the best whereas previous year the club was probably more even handed so not to be releasing just the lesser view seats. If you recall you had people still trying to buy seats on resale knowing they could choose their (better) seat then try and sell the seats they’d won in the ballots to friends who’d missed out desperate to get in. This new system should in theory clear all that up.

My guess it won’t be a problem because they will have MORE seats available to choose from than SOLD so plenty of choice. They will then fill the sections up with phase two first come first serve buyers.

It won’t work perfectly but I’d imagine like previous years it will encourage you if single to choose end of row and not leave single seats on end of row. Not technically to sit together. Just ability to choose your seats from those available. The lead name of the booking (of the joint application) can choose all the seats for those successful.

Love that last line…

To all the coaches out there did he tackle with his correct/expected foot on that clip?

STs per game work out £39 (North/South) & £47 (East/West) for comparable prices which like you say will be £47 & £ (TBC) So minimum £8 per game more for members.

Agents up to their old tricks will never not be loathsome…

I paid £727 for 24-25 which is one of the lowest price bands. Since the new owners came in the price jump each season has been around £70-80 each time iirc. Whilst removing membership from them so unable to have option to buy one also. I’m guessing the £47 gets you into all four stands. ST prices definitely higher for East & West stands at £885-1163.

Reminder the Ballot now open for Southampton.

Barnes signing just seemed opportunist but still part of a plan. EH having in mind to do Plan A then more Plan A with fresher legs after 60+mins. Over a full season Gordon and Barnes should end up with fairly similar minutes on the LW over three competitions. The RW that EH wants clearly hasn’t been available yet. Let’s see if they are this summer.

With some of our fanbase that would apply to any player!

Who’s Lille’s scouting team?

We are behind Liverpool in the food chain currently. Thats the reality unfortunately. Nothing to do with speed.

Yes. Very interested to see how EH uses him. Seemed surprised/pleased when he picked up his training top to see his new number it seemed.

And even Kelly isn’t fit at the minute.

Farewell sweet princess…

To help pass the time…

Need to be linked and only lead name can select the seats.

Just think when the first big signing news breaks… that endorphin rush! Prediction w/c 29/7 😆

Read the follow up etc. Never specified Tindall stayed until the end 🤷🏼‍♂️
