180 in the queue, all sorted. Block 140.

Ahhh, the Ev. A box office football clerb.

Ahhh fuck VAR, man.

Surely the Ev’s new ground won’t be able to replicate the reverberation of the noise of fewm that Goodison can. A fine Barclays staple. Will be sorely missed.

Two 17 year old lads on my table on the train back after Arsenal away last month started belting this out and instigated the whole carriage singing it. Great laugh.

Quite a few STH I think all have this thing of thinking they’re absolutely mint fans because they’ve had the same seat for a billion years or whatever, yet they’ve never in the time they’ve had a ST contribute positively to the atmosphere. They ‘won’t be told what to do’ when protests against Ashley were organised. Or ‘won’t be told what to do’ when they get asked to stand up at a final because they’ve never stood. TBH, I don’t know what a solution for it could be.

They look vulnerable as hell at the back especially to players with pace. Would absolutely love a point purely due to our record there.

As I posted earlier today there needs to be a hierarchical membership system put in place if they won't issue new season tickets or have a waiting list. Liverpool appear to have one, I know Chelsea have one. Base it on purchase history or something along those lines to avoid obtaining tickets away from STs a total plutocracy. Because as it stands now, no one can tell the difference between the likes of 'polic, bobbydazzla, TheGuv, Sima, myself and many others who put in the effort to get tickets to every game. Speaking for myself, from the 2021-22 season up to now I've been making time even when supposed to be working to be in front of a computer screen and (whilst it's cheating the system, needs must) having many a queue spot because I'm desperate to be at any and all matches. F5ing on resale especially last season because of desperation to be there. But neither the club nor anyone else can differentiate between someone who does that, someone who's in it for the touting, someone who applies for a ballot but isn't arsed so spends the duration of the game scrolling on their phone. It's poor, like.

Would’ve taken that. Should’ve beat them at home in the league.

Obligatory GET ON WITH THE DRAW, MAN.

Turns out we’re all pot 2 after all. Get in. If someone buys the tickets on behalf of others through linking their accounts, do they get sent to the person that buys them’s address or each individual separately?

I’d imagine though that a few forwarded their ticket(s) for Wimbledon given the short turnaround/notice for that game. Just be a case of queue number at noon on Friday.

I’m in exactly the same boat. Just hope there’s 2-3 together in the lower tier. 😬

Confirmed? Seen nowt on the clerb site.

Are the tickets paper or e-tickets?

A hierarchical membership scheme needs to come in I think, as there’s no way to differentiate memberships in regard to tickets between lads like you, me and hundreds of others who F5 like fuck and wait in the queue with lerds of spots because they’re desperate for a ticket and touts/people who aren’t that arsed/away fans.

We had a max of about 40k season ticket holders under Benitez iirc? Then 10k walked away (hence the freebies and subsequent 52k gates just before COVID), club then issued another 1k or 2k? Hazard a guess we have the same number of STH as the allocation.

Nope. Lad we go to home games with is giving me his as he’s in the Far East in the whole of March.

Have to wait till pot 3 with all the others being in pot 2. Hope there’s still seats together in the lower tier. Would be feeling shafted if I wasn’t able to get one, given my attendance at all of the games bar Forest but would have zero chance of a final ticket.

As I’ve said before I’m getting a ticket off one of the lads we go with who’s a STH in the cup scheme but can’t go to the final. He transferred his ticket for Wimbledon to me but attended all the others. Should be alright?

Hallelujah, John Tudor, John Tudor. Probably one of the first ever Newcastle songs taught to me by my dad when I was like 4 or 5. RIP.

Would've loved Maddison in summer 2022 when we were apparently putting in bids when he was at Leicester but wouldn't take him now.

Would be nice to just not lose this fucking fixture for a change. 15 straight defeats in the league ffs. Haven't scored since 2018, aggregate of 49-7 over the last 15. Tragic. Would be very happy with a point and will be besides mesel with a win. No wins against them away in the league since September 2000, before I was even fucking born.
