so has there been an official 'relaxing' of the laws re standing at games now do we know? most sets of visitors to the bok have stood for the duration, and we have done a fair bit of standing too, Wolves, Wigan, Burnley and at Southampton, a steward told me if i wanna stand, go and stand over there!Zulus Thousand of em wrote:Because they refuse to sit down, I believe.bedwetter2 wrote:I've got to agree with CAPS on this one, I took one look around the ground at kick-off and said to my son "about 22500". It's a fcuking disgrace that there were not more in. And why were the barcodes only given the bottom of the south stand? Can't they sell more either?Every supporter should be doing their best to get their mates to come, whether by appealing to their better nature, outright flattery or possibly the threat of extreme violence and/or blackmail.

Re: Time to take a long hard look at yourselves
Wife nipped upto the 'bok for two tickets for me and the boy this morning. Bit of a struggle to get two seats next to each other in the Lofthouse Lower. Apparently there's a bit of a selling frenzy going on - they're expecting a full house.

Bring it on. Can't remember the last full house we had - Atletico Madrid perhaps? Grimsby?

Go on, I'll bite. No, I'm not coming up. I get to about 3 home games a season. This won't be one of them.
I will, however, look forward to a time when I can't just 'phone up the ticket office with 3 days notice to get a ticket for a London game because we've sold our allocation.
Well done. You can piss higher up the wall than I can.
Re: Time to take a long hard look at yourselves
I decided to take a long hard look at myself and not only am I not going to the game, but I'm going on a diet instead.
