Solid as a rock

Random question - did any Season tickets go on sale at all this summer except to existing ST holders? I didn't see any communication at all on it.

He’s having a second kid!

I mean again, while it looks a bit sloppy it makes no difference if you get your email 30 mins after the ballot opens. You have 3 days to apply.

Ah I see what you mean now, cheers. In which case I’d say that falls into ‘who is the more deserving supporter’ debate, and when both ‘types’ of fan have zero points it’s difficult to complain about you and your mates not getting any because as you say they view themselves as ‘better’ fans.

That doesn’t seem to have changed at all then So some people with high points are less likely to sell on their tickets (whereas last season people with no points could get tickets from their high point mates). And now those with low points are buying tickets just to sell on and boost their points (so those same people with no points can still buy tickets from those people). So what has changed?

But all of those options were available last season (arguably more so with ticket resale having less restrictions) - so I’m struggling to see the issue?

So am I missing something - how did those day trippers get tickets?

They were when we last played in it. Dortmund will be our Bayer Leverkusen. Two straight wins setting us up for our glorious final game v Milan needing a win to see us through. Scrape a point v PSG in one of the games

What are the chances of getting a ticket for a home game as a member? Close to zero?

I think that's part of the reason we wanted Gordon, he can play LW, RW and CF. I think he's already played in those three positions for us.

I think Barnes was considered a shoe in but Gordon has started the season brilliantly. It's a nice problem to have.

You know there are large areas of Paris, in particular around the stadium that are indeed absolute dumps and quite unsafe to boot? Milan has fantastic shopping, great food but not much else in the way of nightlife. Have you been to either?

The area itself is shite but Cologne and Dusseldorf are 30 mins away which are absolutely class

Without wanting to put a dampener on things, Paris and Milan will be two crap away days outside of the games themselves. Terrible cities for football. Dortmund is so good though

Only 3 clubs, can't be that hard to qualify.

Ooooff that's a headshot

They've signed less players than us this window.

This - absolutely mental takes from some people in here

Do you genuinely expect a group of mid 20s professionals not to go out and enjoy themselves in town and just stay in the house for the entirety of their professional career?

Currently having a medical according to SSN.

Sounds like he ran himself into the ground last season and we were lucky he held out until the second last game.

Only one more season after this one.

And he's barely played in those 7 months. He's now starting games regularly and can be judged accordingly.

You didn't give a 'slight hint that things could be a little better', you said there were 'glaring gaps' in our squad when that clearly isn't the case. It just comes across as hysterical exaggeration and a reason why our fans get so much stick. There's room for improvement at RW and LB no doubt, but you could say that about every team in the league in certain positions. I find it hard to believe people still see Burn as an incapable defender when he was a key part of the best defence in the league last year.
