  1. Anyone booked up or planning to go to this game? Flights to Graz and Vienna are fairly pricey now. Fly to Bratislava and car hire or train sounds a plan...
  2. Luckily didn''t get round to booking this. Reminds me of the Sunderland situation last season with the game changed with 19 days notice. Already had flights and hotel booked. Fans come second as we all know by now...
  3. [quote user="Bryangunnshairline"]I''m going with mates. Shocking its not a sellout[/quote]   I''m not shocked. Testimonials hardly come with a warning for the faint hearted! I went to the Fleming testimonial out of respect for the player more than any slight interest for the game. Would still have gone to the Celtic game but have a 2 night holiday booked in Prague. Oh well.
  4. If you need a lift to Man City game from and can get to Staines Station for 9am get in touch, also anyone living on the M40/M42/M6 corridor needing transport please drop me a message.
  5. I am leaving Ashford (between Feltham and Staines) at about 8.45 tomorrow morning. If you can get to either Ashford or Staines Railway stations i''ll give you a lift. contact pjdennis15@hotmail.com Paul
  6. or if you live on the M40/M42/M6 corridor contact me if you need a lift to the game.
  7. I have 2 spare senior citizen tickets at £15 each. Contact pjdennis15@hotmail.com if you want them...
  8. [quote user="Wooftie"]I wouldn''t be surprised to see Jackson want to leave any time soon. He must have been gutted yesterday, when we were 1-0 down, and Lambert brought on a 100k striker who is 31, yet clearly ranked above him in the scheme of things. And to see Korey Smith, and then Lappin come on ahead of him; without him getting a sniff, instead standing down near the snake pit ''warming up'' being practically a ball boy, must really frustrate him. Don''t get me wrong, I''m not questioning Lambert''s decisions, but I could see Jackson knocking on the manager''s door, asking him if he has a future at this club. I can''t see him settling to be the fourth choice striker, being a professional bench warmer. A bit of a shame really.[/quote] He has been given a chance. He played almost every pre-season game and many at the start of the season and his impact was minimal at best. I didn''t even rate him that highly at Gillingham, certainly not a striker worthy of the £1m price (is that depending on appearances?) He''s a good League 1 striker but not up to the quality of the Championship. the Bristol City game was only game where he''s impressed me. Hopefully he''ll prove me wrong but it looks unlikely especially as you say, he can''t even get a game off the bench when we''re 1-0 down. Not looking good for him, especially with Cody likely to be ahead of him in the pecking order when he comes back from Gillingham.
  9. [quote user="Tim Allman"] Yes, Canaries World is well worth it for an exiled fan, you get to listen to Chris and Neal on Radio Norfolk via the link on the Official Site, see interviews and highlights all for around £35 for a season.   You can also listen to other teams commentary if you really want to; I''ve done so on a couple of occasions; and if you do, it makes you realise how good the Radio Norfolk commentary is.   [/quote]   Never mind the commentary! Canary Call is hilarious, especially with numpties like this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqLsh9QtZMg
  10. [quote user="Matt Juler"]Obviously we''d need to not lose, or Leeds not win, but I find it strange that we''ve got to wait untill Carlisle (I assume) before any trophy is awarded.  Probably no one from the football league can be bothered to head to Norwich, just in case we lose and Leeds win and they''d then have to make the trip again in a couple of weeks. [/quote]   You answered your own question. The Football League deal in certainties, not probabilities. Imagine the egg on their face, not to mention time and expense wasted if we didn''t win the League. A minor miracle if that happened though as we all know. Not sure why it matters to you anyway? The Carlisle game will be better IMO with all presentations (P.O.T.S, League title) etc awarded on the same day.  
  11. [quote user="Kidderminster Canary"] Which village in Norfolk let out its Village idiot yesterday, the nutter sat behind me and had the loudest shout I have ever heard, but instead of shouting for city he continually  shouted LINE O, WHAT YOU HERE FOR,  and REF WHATS THE POINT followed by Chris Martin is Sh**., some where, some one is looking for this moron.   [/quote] I think I know who you are referring to. You were at the side stand towards the left hand side, half way up?? He actually lives nowhere near Norfolk. Met this guy a few times and he''s a decent lad. At least he tries to make an atmosphere rather than majority of the bandwagon boys standing in silence for most of yesterday. Some people just can''t win.....
  12. [quote user="E Block Loyal"][quote user="Surrey yellow"][quote user="Tim Allman"] It''s simple and fair. The supporters who have been to the most games get first dibs when it counts. [/quote]   My thoughts exactly, Tim. Makes me laugh when all these part timers start complaining about not getting tickets. The people who go to the games, get priority, simple. [/quote] It''s not quite that simple though is it? Take Colchester, somebody who has been a season ticket holder for ten years and had done eight away trips in the last 12 months had just as much chance of getting a ticket as somebody who had just purchased a half season ticket. How on earth can that be considered fair? [/quote]   A borderline for priority groups has to be drawn somewhere. I think 10 away games a year is a fair enough amount of games to be given 2nd highest priority after Away Season ticket holders. There will always be people with 8 stubs who will complain, 7 stubs who will complain and people who haven''t been to a game in 10 years who will complain about not getting tickets etc etc. Taking your hypothetical scenario on board, perhaps another priority group should be made between ST holders with 10 stubs and ST holders with no stubs. Maybe ST holders with 5 stubs?  As mentioned previously the ticket office are stretched and it''s extra admin for them so it''s doubtful anything will change soon.
  13. [quote user="NCFC4LIFE"]Speaking to my mate about Charlton away in April, obviously will be a ballet!!!! But I feel the club should gurantee tickets to everyone who made the trip down to the Valley last day of the season last year!!!! Thoughts?! [/quote] Are you joking? There were people there that day who had hardly been away all season. You think they should get priority over people who''ve done most games this season?? 
  14. I am going. An hours trek from the other side of London...

  16. My dad and several generations previously were born and raised within walking distance from Carrow Road. Dad moved to London for work reasons and took me to see my first game in 1994. That was it.
  17. I have 1 space left in my car for Saturday''s trip North. If you are prepared to meet at Hatton Cross tube station at 0830 or anywhere along the M1 corridor I can pick you up. I have a pickup at Leicester Station between 10:15/10:30, traffic depending. £15 would be all you''ll need for petrol money. Get in touch if you need my help.
  18. [quote user="Matt Juler"]Is that one of the few you''ve got left of the 92?  I think I''m in the mid 60s at the last count. [/quote]   Think I''m on 76, so bit more than a few to go. Unlike some people, I don''t base my support on whether I''ve been to the ground or not.
  19. [quote user="Matt Juler"][quote user="Surrey yellow"] It thought with Huddersfield being a new ground for many this trip would have sold out no problem? [/quote]Only for the youngsters! [/quote] I''ve not been there either, Matt. Driving this time. A car load should come to less than £27 per person. Journey home should be slightly quicker even with a drop-off in Leicester!
  20. [quote user="SimonOTBC"] [quote user="Matt Juler"][quote user="Mister Gee-Bee"]I believe there''s around a thousand ASTs, but don''t know if there''s a cap on numbers to make sure tickets are available for general sale etc.[/quote]I believe there are less than 200 this season, was around the 1,000 mark during the Premiership season.[/quote] How many games a season is it actually worth having one for? [/quote]   Depends how many games you go to. As I go to 98% of away games I find it saves a lot of time and hassle calling up the ticket office every time you want a ticket. You can also guarantee where you want to sit by selecting front, middle, or back on the application form. Normally thesedays you are guaranteed a ticket for most games with 10 away stubs, but you never know, there may be a Local Cup game one day with a small allocation Tickets will be like gold dust so an AST would come in very handy...

  22. Matt, agreed he was poor today, but give the guy a break, he''s been certainly among our best players this season. He''s entitled to an off day. If we are to have any real aspirations of promotion he has to stay.  
  23. [quote user="ryan1992"]sorry im confused! whats that about £20 away season ticket? i thought they were hundreds?![/quote]   Ryan, you pay £20 to register to the scheme, and the club charge your credit for each game and post the ticket to you. You can cancel up to 5 games before you are forfeited from the scheme.
