Aye agreeAnything to help kids off the street is good by me
Totally agree but it's funny when they do it and nowts saidNowt wrong with reducing tickets for a game of football, it's too expensive as it is.
Not arsed about their hypocrisy. If they want to try and look down their nose at times we've made it more accessible to people on lower incomes to watch live football then let them get on with it.
Think they count non attending ST Holders on 10 year deals. Probably 40k there.Empty seats all over against West Ham but still 50k there, strange.
To be fair, I hear you say "why should we?",they have a hard core of good fans. Like us they have good crowds regardless of the football served up They are relatively on the up compared to us now, but I always wonder how the media would react if it was us and them fighting for the Premier League title. Mostly localised fans who have both coped with shit ownership but have remained loyal and vocal. They remain skunks, but other than their relegation to League Two, the other scenario I would like would be us fighting out for honours because the rest of the country's big crowds have had much, much more recent sucess.Crap fans.
More fool us then. You need to build a fanbase, and reduced tickets for youngsters is an important part of that strategy.They've been giving away free tickets for yonks. We stopped years ago.

It's all meaningless anyway. If we got (and scored that penalty) we would likely have still lost still lost deserved to anyway.It was offside and VAR is allowing for a bit margin of error now. This is a shit quality image unlike the better quality what VAR will see, plus the computer will say if the lines overlap. You can see there was a gap between the blue line (Young) and the thicker red line (Wilson).

It looks close due to the camera angle but swing this around to the linesman perspective and the gap will be inches. This is another camera angle and now look at positions of the leading feet against the grass line and also how far Wilson is leaning forward given it's the top half of him that's offside. Ings looks close simply because he's tall because if you took a line directly down from all 3 players shoulders, you'll see that Wilson is clearly further forward. The question is "where do you draw the line?" and the answer is no matter where you draw it there will always be close calls. I think the lines should be even thicker so it allows for stuff like this.
