I'm not sure to be honest as I haven't done a away game my mate will know is 3g them plastic and grass mixed pitches
-
That's it these days with the tickets you never know who with you were like you say it was always the same old faces away it was my preference to always go away I've seen them bands on tv at England games I think sheff wed started it all of I once went to pompey I got stuck near him with all the tattoos he had a big bell thing again all game ringing itI felt like lamping him with it
-
Flyde pitch is in better condition than Preston that pitch is shocking for a championship club must be the worst in that division
-
I think that is the same for a lot of lads now as been said on here I pick and choose now theses days I have done most of the grounds lower leagues over years use to look forward to them more than home games but haven't been away for a few years I think what got me thinking was I got a ticket for a home game I hadn't been in my seat long when up come a band right behind me big drum trumpets cimbulles all she bang all game they were at it I asked a steward to move me no he wasn't having any of it
-
Admission is about 15 to 20 depending on if you sit or stand they had a derby game a few weeks ago attendance was just short of 1700 normally round 12/1300 this season but going up weekly yes it's owned the previous owner I think it was got a decent stretch for fraud I think it was he wanted to buy blackpool but oyston wouldn't sell so he invested in fylde tidy little ground well kept
-
I would of deserved it as well it just shows how far removed it's all gone
-
I didn't know clubs had academy in other countries he must something charts if he's in teams like that I wasn't knocking him attending the game who wouldn't given the chance how does it impact on his schooling if they have a game midweek away
-
I could imagine the reaction and answer if I asked for a presseco or was seen walking with one at Upton Park
-
I bet that was a good experience for him and to see players of that level not knocking it but like you say surely a game like that should be kept in Spain but it shows it's all about profit now does he play himself charts as sports seem to be getting more and more investment over there
-
Sometimes even at that age you can just see it like when Beckham came here on loan they just have that something we had Harrison Armstrong on loan from Everton he's the same you can just see it he looks like he has all the time in the world on the ball we have a lad from villa on loan he's another I think will be a big name
-
I'm not surprised I have bumped in to a few old mates at non league most say how it's not the same now or others have got involved in park football it's a sign of times now I think a lot of lads up and down the country feel the same that's why non league attendance is growing as quickly as it is
-
Again I agree funny you mentioned pie and a brew my mate sent me a load of pictures of all the different foods on offer at different grounds spuds filled with all sorts of things currys all sorts of shite what is that really about pie or a burger and a stewed cup of tea or a coffee was all I remember being served at most grounds not now it seems
-
Yeah I never get it if we had a night game away sometimes we wouldn't get home till gone midnight or later and up for work at 5 or sitting in a open stand in sleet and rain in Hartlepool on a Tuesday night we always stayed till the end regardless and supported the team but if we got a big cup draw at home all these feckers that only turned up for big games would be snapping all tickets up and lads like me could miss out then they would say I'm home and away regular feck off lying
-
I agree who want to stay with a beer near toilets stinking of piss instead of being out in the stands yes with out a doubt fans have changed for the worst I mainly did lower league games div 2/3/4 but even with 6 or 7000 fans in the ground they would beat theses new 60 000 plus stadiums for atmosphere and like you know you got to know most of the faces as they were the usual ones to attend now it's all that's changed for these new breed of fans
-
I think Declan Rice as been there best signing for a long time were moyse had him more restricted arteta has given him that freedom to push forward more and he has a goal or two in him that young lad that came in at the back last night had another good game and that was a good tackle at the end to stop brentford scoring
-
I think boro were hasty getting rid of carrick he got them to wembley twice in two seasons I think it was and that's despite them selling his best players constantly I think utd will go for a big name at the end of the season and thank him for his service I agree with you on arsenal I think win or lose they will stick with arteta as they have invested to much time and money in to his ideas a young manager I mentioned a good while back who took over delovopment at city were he was highly regarded is top of league 1 with cardiff playing good football he could be a name for the future
-
Them lollipop folk that keep stopping all traffic to let one or two cross at a time at schools make them wait till you have a group of them together
-
When I walk pass a pub and I see lads I went to school with dressed and acting like there in there 20s strutting round in stone Island gear ect sniffing gear feck right of
-
They had a couple of chances to play gyokeres in over the top last night instead played it sideways instead of giving him the service he thrives on like haaland gets at city I think city will catch them because arsenal don't put teams away when they should it's like every goal has to be perfect
-
I agree about alot of prem fans now there like spoilt kids when they're getting beat they even boo in the first half when I use to go home and away alot I knew most of the time we would get done but if they tried it didn't matter unless it was your rival club you would stay till the end and clap them off now they leave the ground if it looks like they are going to lose walking out before half time sometimes what's that about or going on there phones whilst games on we have never been in the prem and if we did go up I wouldn't go on one game listening to all the Jonny come lately going on about
-
Without a doubt in championship players like Hayden hackney fatuwu hardwood bellis and a few others would step up and do a good job in the prem like Bowen andy Roberts Warburton and a good few more have done and gone on to be international players it's the same like you say all way down the leagues that's why I would like to see more money shared down the leagues to be used on development of are own players maybe something like more home grown players on the books or play bigger the budget your given will be a good incentive for clubs
-
That must be the highest average of any prem team do you think that will change next season as I think I read you have a few out of contract and others that could be sold like Gordon ect
-
Look at arteta looking like he's going to win the title but they stuck with him after one cup in however many seasons he's put a good squad together because he was afforded time that is a shocking stat but it seems the thing to do theses days like Forest is it the 4th manager there looking for this season Sunderland did it for a few seasons
-
That's why I think non league is becoming so much more popular I think it was in some cases over a 120% like nation league South because it still has that old type football feel to it I see a lot more young families on fylde fc or when I talk to groups of old school lads they have had enough of prem or championship with everything about the game changing atmosphere rules ect and go non league now
-
That's a good point about Frank there's is a few in the same boat this season slott as come in for a lot of stick this season after winning the title amorin did well at sporting came to utd totally different animal and was found out Alonso went from being successful at Leverkusen to Madrid he also was soon found out I understand you want to test yourself and be as successful as possible but from a sporting point of view surely some must know some jobs/clubs are beyond your capability
