You were. It was actually a thread about Swansea allocation for Fulham, not a sob story & excuses for another poor Swansea attendance.

You moan that fans won't get back in time, but there aren't that many going, so it shouldn't affect them anyway. :lol:

I was talking about Fulham, then attendances in general which led me on to Norwich. If you read what I posted you'd understand that. There's over 650 sold for St Gallen as of last week. A lot will be buying them today actually so they can but season ticket holder tickets and Jack Army member tickets together. General sale is today. The way our ticket system works is Season tickets get the first week of sale then JA members only in week 2, no season holder. So if you have a group that are mixed you can't buy them all together until general sale. So for games that arent likely to sell out, you'll get a lot of people waiting until general sale. I'd imagine somewhere between 700-800 will go to St Gallen which is a good effort and all our regular travellers who'd be in Norwich will be in St Gallen. Common sense, no?

No, you were moaning about St gallen & Norwich. :thumbup:

I really couldn't care less. You lot go on about being in the Europa league & then moan at the negatives of that competition - can't have it all. :laughing6:

Indeed, you can't have it all. I'm not moaning about the affects on the team. I'm more concerned about the fans. Saturday 3pm kick offs are a thing of the past for home games too! We've only had one so far I think. With the next one in March or something stupid. That's crazy.

EDIT - Sunderland home has been our one and only 3pm Saturday game. Our next one is March 1st v Palace, assuming they switch the derby game in february.

I didn't say you were concerned about the team. :lol: you're moaning about the negatives of being involved in Europa competition, yet lauding the fact that you are in it.

Can't have it all... Suck up the bad points, or come out and say it's not worth being in. Your choice. :thumbup:

I know you didn't. I was making a general point. Most negative connotations with the Europa league come from people saying it affects the team's results. I'm not moaning about that. That's my point. You'll do this all day won't you? I bet when you and Roathie get together it's non-stop thread. :lol:

Its a totally irrelevant point though, as we were discussing crowds - hence my comment. :lol:

You can't bleat on about being in the Europa League, but then cry about the negatives of it - stop whinging.

Our tickets never go on general sale home or away, we don't have that option but i suppose for a small town club like yourselves it makes sense just to try and get rid of the tickets. :thumbup:

Never? Unlikely. West Ham in the Carling cup this season? You didn't sell out did you? Come to think of it, West Ham in the play offs! That was slightly more important! You didn't sell that out? That's going back a couple of seasons but you get the picture.

Or were you referring to this season, in your debut Premier League season? In which case, I'll go back to my original point, in our first season in the Prem we didn't get to general sale either.

West ham in the playoffs was a 2,000 ticket sellout. Don't bother arguing, I was there.

Oh here we go again the away support old chesnut thingy! :laughing6:

Why did your club only take up the minimum amount of tickets on offer for Chelsea away? We sold the full allocation in our first season? We're you all scared to go after last time? :laughing6:

We've already done the full allocation to a shitty ground like Fulham, and it's coming up too Christmas. Didn't Annis put up a thread about you struggling to sell tickets for West Brom! :laughing6:

I'd love to see if you take up your full allocation for Arsenal at £50 a pop? We of course did take it up in our first and second season and sold them all! :thumbright:

The bottom line is, that money is tight in South Wales right now and fans on both sides will pick and choose their games finance dictating. So cut the petty crap. It's childish, boring and been done to death more times than I can remember! ;)


We had two choices for the chelsea game, if we took the full allocation the police insisted it would be a bubble trip, if we only take 1,500 tickets then it could be bubble free that's what the club decided to do, as for annis thread about west brom, it's them, west brom who are struggling to sell their allocation when we play them at home dunb arse, we will sell out our allocation for the arsenal game no problem (i've bookmarked your statement) and as for fulham, if you are only taking the allocation suggested then that is piss poor, we took 4,000 there and could easily have sold another 2,000 tickets, the bottom line is that your support is sh*te. :thumbup:


What a massive club you are. You must be so proud. Now make sure you put your toys away before you go to bed
