The Football News Thread 2015/16 - everything non-Wolves

[ROVERT47]

Doesn't sound like the end of the world to me.

Is he struggling to get tickets because the ticket office staff are $#@!e or is it because popularity has now flown through the roof following promotion? The being launched so late is a bit of a bummer I suppose but that could be the supplier's fault rather than the club.

Knew it wouldn't to you, new ticketing system which is a mess, owner reckons kit's late because of sponsor issues, sounds very amateurish to me.

Nothing that hasn't happened elsewhere before.

Pretty much every club around has a made a mess of changing over their ticketing system, remember the early adopters of the card system that Wolves now have encountering lots of problems when they first swapped over. The sponsorship thing could be down to the club being greedy perhaps, thinking PL status would make them more desirable than they are, but again it's not unheard of, didn't Albion have a right game with their shirt sponsor a couple of years ago and end up with a charity or something for a while?

It might look amateurish to some but if they're getting the team sorted ready for the PL then I doubt many will mind in a couple of weeks, I'd rather have that stuff sorted first.

 

[ROVERT47]

Fair enough, wish I hadn't fucking bothered now.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Why? Surely the whole point of posting it was to provoke conversation, and that's happened.

 

[ROVERT47]

It was supposed to be a joke, did i really need to add a smilie?

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Yes, it read as genuine disappointment.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Our ticketing was a disgrace when we went up in 2003, loads of planks who'd never been to Molineux before snapping up season tickets ahead of people who'd been going for years.

 

[The Bear]

Guilty your honour. That was my first season ticket that year. Though I had already decided before they were promoted.

92Live getting even more entertaining as Leyton Orient's Dean Cox takes a free kick against the SSN presenter - who pulls off an amazing save :icon_lol:

This is absolutely dreadful TV but it's extremely entertaining.

Phil Brown having his back waxed live on telly has to be a new low

David Wheater is now cooking the reporter at Bolton an omelette. :icon_lol:

 

[Lycan]

This is glorious TV.

 

[Langers]

I'm going to have to do my top 5 at the end of the day. It'll be tough. That save at Orient is my favourite so far.

 

[Langers]

Port Vale - one of the players interviewed the manager (Rob Page) and one of the questions was 'can you make the noise of your favourite dinosaur?' :icon_lol:

 

[The Bear]

Why aren't you at work?

 

[Langers]

Working from home innit.
