All great sitting on here saying all that, but you're not actually at games witnessing or spending money on this, I have a season ticket but even so to do this while still charging this at £27 is not right.
Again with not grasping context - Why are we charging £27? The band prices were set at the start of the season. Orient were tipped to be a top 6 side at least at the start of the season having finished last season with a loss on penalties in the playoff final. Therefore a last game of the season against them would probably be an important one. They fucked up and so it's actually a game to see if they get relegated or not. Now, bearing in mind a club is only allowed to discount tickets so many times a season, I think it's pretty fair to assume we can't reduce the prices now. I am happy to pay £X to go and see Swindon play. There are limits to this of course, but when we have a club whose main goal is to rest on an even keel financially and maybe make a little bit of profit to pump back I to bit self I have zero problem with paying the 'on day' prices. If I could go often enough to make a season ticket or 6 match ticket work I would get one of those but as is I see it as a necessary evil. Yes football is expensive now, bit that's Sky's fault, not Swindon's. |

I love how glum the pundit looks after that. Like he made a huge mistake and is regretting it. Also FUCKING HELL RODGERS why hasn't he been taking free kicks like that every game?!?! |

Watching the Preston game and they are getting into twitchy bum territory. They are battering Colchester but missing numerous chances, Garner in particular. This has got a 96th minute goal for Colchester written all over it..

Preston are serial bottlers in the play offs, hate the club stealers but better they go up now. |

Goal of the season?
this lad is a lot better than we have given him credit for. i recall one of his shots at a recent home game that indicated his talent. i see him less as a DM and more as a Louis type player, able to get forward, and hope we keep him as he will become more consistent. |
