  1. [quote user="morty"]Perhaps if people feel that they are going to pay too little they can contact the club and volunteer to pay a bit extra? [/quote] Could just not renew before the first deadline, or second...
  2. Leeds goal difference is +30.  Charlton''s is +21.
  3. Well used to live somewhere between Jessop Road and the Avenues - miles away I know, and now I''m much nearer just off Dereham Rd in West Pottergate ;-)
  4. I heard/read somewhere, that Delia and Michael''s views are quite strong about that, and the Turner''s when they were here wanted to do things like hike up ticket prices, but Delia refused.  As she really believes in the "affordable family football" thing the club like to tell us about. I''m not sure what I''d think about it, things are tight for me, and can only just afford it - and will go up next year as I''m over 21 - but if paying a good deal more helped secure the club financially and enhance the chances of success, maybe it''s worth it.  If Doncaster was still here, I wouldn''t trust what they''d do with the money.  But if prices were hiked but with McNally in charge, I trust what he''d do with it.
  5. I guess the main problem would be, if we were to start doing well on the pitch again (I know we are but L1), reached top of the Championship and possibly the Premier League, and wanted to increase capacity, we would be unable to as we wouldn''t own it.  And would mean buying it back, and then building, unless the council/company decided to do it which I can''t see. Also, wouldn''t all our income go down?  As where would the money from food and drink etc go, would we get it or would it be the company who owned CR?
  6. Think for me it''s Leeds getting hammered. Bring them back down to earth and remind them they are in League 1 for a reason.
  7. Cluck well done on the most unoriginal piece of "info" ever. Obviously his aim will be to manage a certain much bigger team from Glasgow, but that will only happen if he succeeds here. So not this league, as we were always - with a vaguely decent manager - going to do well. If he does well with us in the Championship, maybe then will they take the plunge.
  8. Started going in 96/97, aged 7/8, was a jnr canary, but just went to saturday games (plus 1 evening)... Got a ST the following season, and missed only a few home games since. Done a few away as well.
  9. I think about 336 (have looked at old fixture lists) competitive games, maybe 350 plus including friendlies.
  10. BA - Away fans are often louder than home fans, and our fans away are noisier than at home. cufone or whatever it is, i agree, leeds have to be the most disliked team in the entire league... I do think Beckford and his antics, and Leeds are a match made in heaven!
  11. Obviously Lambert was "hated" by the players among other things, as I presume he would have been sacked anyway if he was that bad? Ironically, we had a much poorer start than them to the season, including the 7-1 hammering, but we are now above Col U on goal difference!
  12. Thing is with Cluck, he would prefer being able to turn up at a game just before kick off, but he would start slating the club as-per-usual for not being able to be good enough to be in a better league. Can''t moan about how we are doing now, so thinks of some excuse like that. Anyway, the elderly or people out of work, or people who are disabled like myself, can still get season tickets.... So you can''t add those to bash the club.
  13. [quote user="Lambo"]Could someone please explain to me how playing at 2pm saves us money exactly???[/quote] I guess mainly the floodlights, and when you consider a lot of people get into reserve games for free, or a few quid, and attendences are low probably don''t make much on food. It all adds up. Think they''ve previously said they make a loss on most reserve games...
  14. I seem to remember last season, we started with Stefanovic and Kennedy in the middle of defence, and didn''t do too badly. In the first 6 league games, which Kennedy played in we conceded 8 goals, 1.3 goals a game. In the rest of the season after he was injured, 40 games, we conceded 62 goals, which is although not much, is more per game than with him in it (1.55). So clearly he wasn''t that bad!
  15. I''ve seen him outside at some game, and also sure I saw him in the director''s box another match.
  16. I was looking at possibly going, but I''m going to a gig that night in London.
  17. [quote user="filthyrich"]we got swindon in the sjpt on tuesday night[/quote] Thought that was on the 10th? Glad we''re away as at a gig that night.
  18. I agree it can be frustrating him going out wide at times. But despite that, he''s still scored 10 goals already, so I don''t think it''s much of an issue.
  19. Eddy did actually play about 30 games that season, started off as a sub but started from about Sept-April (til the Arsenal game)
  20. Fair enough that was arguably in favour for us, but how did the guy not get sent off for his terrible challenge on hoolahan?
  21. [quote user="Captain Holt"]In fairness, the only one that was actually good looking was Coco, the blond one :P:P[/quote] They''d all get it though!
  22. Weren''t that the 3-0 win V QPR? Rusty did score from quite far out that day, shame Dublin couldn''t too.
