General Discussion / Re: Chelsea tickets
Last post by BobbyPFFC - Today at 12:15:50 PM
Re Chelsea ticket Boxing Day.

I have a Shed lower ticket and would like to swap for a shed upper if anyone can do.

Both myself and my son have over 1000+ points but couldn't get 2 seats together for the Chelsea away game. I could only get an upper and lower which are unconnected.

Please reply, and we'll work out how to do

Quote from: bog on December 10, 2024, 08:59:08 AMIf we make the FA Cup final v Bournemouth will they bother to show this?

An excellent question and I am sure ourselves and Bournemouth would be only too pleased to put it to the test. Let's get past Watford first, mind, before we start making plans.

They probably will and add insult by sticking Parker behind a mic. To give his thoughts on team tactics

Quote from: Snibbo on Today at 12:31:13 AMI went to a Yankees baseball game in New York recently. The constant organ music and rock music tracks and ear-splitting noise drove me nuts, and the speakers were everywhere, right above your head, it was deafening. Destroyed any atmosphere for me, the opposite of what's intended.



Absolutely spot on, i could not agree more.
Why the herbert's get the idea that loud tuneless rock music provides an atmosphere and is what the consumer wants to hear beats me.
Same with these imported films from America you see on TV, every actor shouts at each other accompanied by very loud tuneless rock music.
It is not acting it is shouting and an absolute racket and is enough to give a Dung Beatle Diarrhoea.
That is the same reason why i now work in a Library to embrace the tranquility and get away from loud canned music, it irritates me beyond belief, and explains why some people join a Monastery.
No wonder people suffer from hearing problems.
One of the reasons why i packed up  using a pneumatic drill when i worked between jobs on building sites.
Nothing beats the peacefulness and tranquillity of just listening to the birds sing.

And I'm sure lots of Americans would find cricket to be boring as ****
Different strokes for different folks

The commentators for baseball are quite brilliant

Woolly, please tell me where this library is as I must visit it. About 25 years ago my quiet local library was such that the librarians would utter 'shushhh' at the drop of a hat, except that hats were never dropped because the shushhhes would then become unpleasantly disruptive. Everything changed when the council, bent on stripping the university students of their grants, installed a cafe bang in the middle of the library. It promptly put the local cafe out of business. It became a lounging area for all types of people with no interest in books. Now there are very few books to be seen and it has become the urban equivalent of a village hall. Still if you like jumble sales....

Levy has history nicking our players, so won't be a surprise to me.

Quote from: St Eve on Today at 01:34:22 AMI hope that the Spurs link is paper talk

Me too although badly written paper talk, "...According to a report by The Independent, Marco Silva is the subject of interest from Tottenham Hotspur. The North London giants..."

Since when would you refer to Spurs as North London giants? The last cup they won was in 2008. For me it wouldn't be a good move for Marco, he still has unfinished business to do and why would you go to a team lower in the division that us?  :slap:

It's always the case with home atmosphere, naturally the away atmosphere will feel louder and probably is due to a concentrated group. At home especially at a ground like ours, you are going to have your corporate percentage which is pretty much a whole stand and other areas. For me personally, for a ground that is targeted at 30-40% corporate and away fans, and another 30-40% families we have a reasonably good atmosphere. Its never going to be furious and aggressive like at some grounds but I wouldn't want that. It would be good to get a breakdown of clubs demographic of attendances, its easy to say x have a unbelievable atmosphere but that could be because their fan base is different in terms of it being largely male dominated groups. The tourist fans don't help although a lot of them seem to be captured in the Riverside development which if they aren't blocking true fans in getting a ticket, I don't have too much problem with cashing in at max price.

Great name - Goldie Boutilier (French Canadian).
Great, intriguing song title - Cowboy Gangster Politician.
Great tune, voice and arrangement.
The video is a 'I have to watch that again.'
I hope you will agree with all of the above whatever your usual musical tastes.
