Not really, I listen to several podcasts every day and hardly any of them are under an hour, quite a few are 2, 3 hours + the beauty of podcasts is it’s pretty much the only place you can hear long form interviews, conversations these days. There’s not much demand for TV chat shows anymore and the ones that are still running are rarely in depth and usually just a place to plug the guests latest venture. As for the point about swearing, I don’t really give a f**k.

Not many of them can be considered “top quality” yet though. I think you’ve way overvalued mos of the young players.

To Crowded House ‘Don’t dream it’s over’ “Hey Joao, Hey Joao don’t scream it over” apologies in advance.

Never knew that TBH

Bring back stripes!

Except you don’t see him in training and behind the scenes like the manager does.

He’s one of if not the most consistent player in the team in my opinion. His versatility can go against fans’ perception of him at times but that always seems to be the case with players who can play several positions.

Can’t grumble at those two, especially in our current situation. Fingers crossed.

Is that correct? Just going to buy the “silver” one for me and daughter but will probably make the Preston game and you’ve got me doubting myself!

Credit for listening, I’ll be buying now.

I don’t think we can even get 30k in with the SAG regulations and stuff can we? Just for clarification, there seems to be a misconception that the people who aren’t happy with very high prices are people that don’t go which is shown by your “excuses” comment. The majority of people who think (know) prices are too high are the ones paying them so it’s not just about incentives to get more people through the gate by maybe thats a separate issue.

And that applies to everyone does it? The “Everyone should just get a ST” comment is just well, ridiculous. Your other post about people wanting something for nothing is also daft. It’s about people wanting a FAIR price not a freebie. Not everyone has the same social or financial circumstances as you. Where I sort of agree with is that when we do have cheaper games the attendance isn’t always massively different but these are usually one-off games, I don’t think you’d see much difference unless it was in a long term, consistent basis. And the point about Wembley is not relevant either, as I’ve posted previously that is a huge event, potentially once in a life time, a day out, a weekend away, you’re not paying for the same “product” as a run of the mill league game at Hillsborough are you?

Great post regarding getting behind the club, no negativity, etc. Just what’s needed and how it should be (with some exceptions when needed!). Cant really agree on the £20 ticket scenario though as ST holders have paid a lot of money to then be undercut afterwards (Im not a ST holder btw). Maybe if members/ST holders were given a future discount as has been suggested that might work though. Thats the problem with simple, logical ideas they’re usually more complicated when it comes to implementing them!

I think £50 was pushing it but as I said it worked for me. The thing is with a membership it needs to pay off for the fan who can get to a decent amount of games but far less than would warrant a ST so it needs to be priced quite specifically, any more then £50 and it starts to become a bit pointless. If I’m honest I actually think I could just about break even on the £90 IF I managed to get to all the games with the EXTRA (more than £5) saving but there’s also a strong chance I’d lose money so there’s not much point. I was alll ready to buy again at £50 and as you say I would probably have begrudgingly paid £60. The other thing is I might even have bought a ST at the early bird price of I’d had known the memberships were going to be £90. Im one of those who seems to get to an awkward amount of games - 13 last season, 16 the season before, etc so I’m sort of in between a ST and membership but membership has been ideal for me and my daughter......until now.
