  1. My over-65 father (season ticket £310) can''t go to the match today so i suggested my 17 year old son (season ticket £201) he invite his 17 year old friend along. Considering the season ticket is 50%+ more expensive for over 65 compared with under 17 I figured there wouldn''t be any charge but thought i''d check with the ticket office so as not to compromise my father''s ticket. I couldn''t believe it when i was quoted £34!Because they won''t sell match day u21 tickets (even with photo id) they charge full adult A grade matchday price and deduct the average price of the over 65 price. So the ingeniously turn a downgrade into an upgrade to milk the loyal fan.Having held season tickets for about 10 years, travelling to matches from Essex, travelling to 10+ away matches a season etc i must have spent a fortune on ncfc but this really rankles.I realise ncfc seek to maximise revenue but contriving the rules to immorally fleece the fans this way is abhorable. Shame on McNally & co.

  2. unbelievable. seems like chris has become the whipping boy up front. can''t believe many of the contributors to this thread were at sheff utd and palace. who was given a start at sheffield and made no contribution whatsoever? - jackson . who missed the sitter yesterday? - holt. who contributed most to both games - martin. he was taken off yesterday to try other options and guess what...jackson did **** all.

  3. maybe the season ticket holders were taking this match as seriously as the players did? Half of them didn''t turn up either!

    as for reasons for not going i decided not to shell out another £50+ for match tickets and travel and spend the day with my family especially and use the money towards my sheff utd tickets and travel instead.

    i''ve shelled out loads for  season tickets for myself and sons and tickets for many away games etc etc and don''t need to justify to some ****er why i didn''t choose to go to a match that as the team selection and performance proved was perhaps beneath the club too. I have no regrets.

     

    is that ok with you ?


  4. my main gripe was the substitutions were far too late

    Jackson doesn''t impress me at all and Oli deserved more match time. If Oli and McNamee had been brought on much earlier we could have put them on the backfoot.

    As for Korey he''s a grafter but was hardly going to change the game.

    I thought Russell Martin''s crossing was poor and if only we could score from a corner!

    As for MotM had to be Chris Martin for me.


  5. the tv footage on bcc didn''t show a push but it wouldn''t surprise me

    Russell did get ripped by Gradel (much like Ads vs Swansea).

    Thought Crofts was off the pace but maybe concious of getting that yellow that would have kept him out of the scum game.

     

    the situation re Wes and McNamee was the reverse of the Burnely fiture when a poor Wes was replaced and McNamee changed the game


  6. just got my copy must say the picture quality is appalling. would have been better compiling my own from the football league showfor £15 quid i would have expected far better and a 2nd disc as some memorable moments have been omitted to fit on onei will take it back and hope i''ve just got mine from a bad batch


  7. so... don''t buy a programme (same old regurgitated crap anyway) and don''t buy refreshments in the ground. that''ll save you £10.the booking fee is a scam which hits exiled fans particularly but how else are they supposed to finance Roeder''s pension?p.s. how come you have to pay parking on a train?

    must admit i didn''t consider the 150 mile round trip. maybe next time...

  9. [quote user="The Duke"]From what i have been told the reason Doc was released was because he wanted a better deal than we offered. Already being the currant top earner (Believe it or not) he wouldn''t agree to a decent wage. Lambert thought he could use the wages from both Cureton and Doc to better use and the rest as they say is history.

    I thought Doc had a blinding season but i trust PL and Doc didn''t really set the world on fire last season at that level. So i can see why this has happened

    Will always give the doc a clap if he plays against us.

    Any way just what i have been told

    currant top earner eh?

    perhaps he was looking for a raisin salary!

  10. [quote user="Matt Juler"][quote user="norfolk_canary"]im going with 5 mates, but bloody hell the train tickets are expensive [:O]
    [/quote]What way are you going?  Norwich - London - Bristol?  What''s the best fare you''ve found, let me know and I''ll try to reduce it for you (if you''ve not yet bought your tickets)!

    and there''s bound to be engineering works en route!

    I checked for Braintree to Bristol for me and my son with a railcard (family friends) - it was £55!

     

    Now got to decide whether to drive or not. It''ll be cheaper but will roabbly get stuck in the M4 traffic jam!

    Forster

    Spillane - Whitbread - Nelson - Drury

    Doc - Martin

    Do Martin up front eh? Not sure Martin Clunes is available. Mind you, a fictional character would do better than Elliot.
