I absolutely would pay for one and I think it needs to happen. The matches are being filmed and broadcast so that highlights can be shown that day so why not monetise it. I want to watch my team and even though I have nearly 500 TP points, getting an away ticket is nearly impossible, so in our case, not having it it restricting income. It will happen at some point but needs to be done properly, like a smart TV app, not ifollow played through a bloody browser, where you have to say a prayer when you pay, hoping the link is made live. All after dragging a pc into the lounge and turning on your VPN to pretend you are in anywhere but the uk for 2 hours on a Saturday. I have very little interest in watching much outside of SWFC, except for the odd game, similar to the games on Amazon. Beyond that I have zero interest in F1 and Tennis so for me, Sky is a very expensive and outdated model which is spread so thin that its coverage of EFL is unprofessional for most games, ie Musaba being called Mustafa, because 2 people cannot read a team sheet.

Can you comment on the $3 per month, but $39.99 for the year. Have you had Chansiri on the marketing!

Terrys without a shadow of doubt. Made to order, hardly any queues and really nice. When I see the queues at the other places, I always wonder how nice they can be, at the end of the day, it’s just deep fried potatoes and cod, with a bit of curry, its hardly a Michelin starred dish.

Unfortunately yes, and the Watford 6-2 game.

The tickets just have one barcode now. The QR codes have been replaced with a panel which gives out the number to report an incident.

I can’t like this enough. The official EFL slogan is “No room for racism” all the “yeah, buts” and “if he gets educated” is allowing that room. I would also add that as well as apologising to Casey Palmer he needs to apologise to us all for letting down the club we all love and its supporters.

Don’t get Shaun of the dead wrong. It’s Winchester!

Technically it’s a little worse than that, it’s possibly theft, because it’s not your money, it’s either your employees money or your customers. If it’s PAYE, you give your employee a wage slip to say I have paid you X, of which Y has been deducted and paid in PAYE and Z has been taken and given to NI. If you don’t give it to the people you are supposed to, you have stolen from your employee, which includes low paid people in the office as well as players. With VAT, I buy a shirt for £65, and I get a receipt that says thanks for your money, £13 of which has been given to HMRC i.e. VAT @ 20%. So I trust that you hand that over. so if you don’t, you have stolen from your customers. there is absolutely no, excuses either.

I haven’t been this excited about a managerial appointment in a long time, for a young guy he seems very switched on, also comes across like football is his life, a bit like a young Arsene Wenger. Spends his life studying and watching the game. I need to watch again with no picture, because once I noticed that there was a shadow on “XM” under the “DR” all I could focus on was that.

I am also holiday, which I booked last June, the conversation in our house was, wife “are we ok for 29th, just in case you get in playoffs next season” me “yes, bank holiday Monday is usually the championship showpiece, lg1 is either Saturday or more likely Sunday” Watching the goals from Thursday over and over turned to me being as miserable as sin by about Saturday because I can’t go. I have been saying things like, “I can’t believe this season I have had to put up with watching quality games like Oxford at home, but I’m not going to see them at Wembley” I have given my ID number to my nephew who comes with me to Hillsborough when he can, and told him to enjoy the day, even though it’s going to kill me knowing he is going without the one guy that introduced him to watching Wednesday.

Loved the Smurf at the end. He sums up my thoughts perfectly.

I honestly do not know, but if I was to hazard a guess I would say that the broadcast camera rights are owned by EFL and so can be used for the purposes of disciplinary, where as any other cameras in the ground are the property of ITFC. So when the FA get the refs report they write to ITFC saying something along the lines of “in minute x an elbow was reported by the referee but the player was not identified. It was also missed by the broadcast cameras, do you have any footage” ITFC say yes, and then they have to sort out the rights before it can be used. But this is just purely a guess. Before you say this doesn’t take 5 days, we are talking about the FA here, an organisation that say the only way of watching an FA cup first round replay on a Tuesday night in November over 300 miles away is to travel there.

The gps thing is probably a red herring. I think what I was getting at is that people are saying that it is either iFollow coverage or nothing, but when you consider Hillsborough, on a match day as well as the iFollow camera you have other official SWFC cameras, which include: 1 stand camera in the kop 1 stand camera in the west stand 2 lensgo visual cameras for social media purposes 1 prozone camera plus the other week Plymouth had their own cameras for social media purposes, and as an extreme the fan reaction camera. so there is usually more than one official camera covering the ground / action which can be called on.

Whilst I agree about the wide angle, the ref and linesman said there was an elbow which would have been a sending off, but couldn’t confirm who it was, I’m guessing this was also in the refs report. The wide angle, which also has GPS data from the sports bra thing the players wear does the job of confirming who the player was.

Whilst I am no fan of the EFL and FA, there is absolutely no way that mobile phone footage will be used at any point in the proceedings, for one it is against ground regulations, so using it to to punish someone is akin to 2 wrongs making a right, whilst condoning the illegal action. Presumably ITFC will have things like prozone cameras. If you have ever sat behind our dugout, there is a member of our staff on a laptop all game. That has a camera that somehow shows all the pitch at once. I would hazard a guess that that device records. At Hillsborough we have the cameras in the stands that show goals on the big screen from the Kop and west stand. These also do not form part of the iFollow footage and presumably could be used in any FA evidence.

A guy I used to work with nearly got the sack because of the Green Un. He had thrown a sickie for the week because of his bad back in the late 80s, but played a stormer for his Sunday league team and scored a hat trick. It had a headline with his name and scores a hat trick for, whoever he played for. Unfortunately for him his boss read it and started disciplinary proceedings. He wriggled out of it by getting the football team manager to say that they played a ringer.

He looked good on Sunday, he seems to read the game well, and looked very composed on the ball, was able to find a pass and didn’t panic with the ball near his own area. It was nice to see a younger hungry team who can hopefully keep the enthusiasm on a cold night in Fleetwood.

I think it was just before. I think it was the Hulley / Culley era, after Richards left us high and dry. I also seem to remember Chris Stringer coming on after 13 seconds against Wolves away and wearing a plain green shirt without logos just because they did not have the supply of them.

You tend to remember traumatic events with alarming detail. Getting hammered by Wimbledon (twice) and turned over by Stockport was not a nice experience. They went on an amazing run at the end of the season to stay up scoring decent amount of goals along the way.

It was the season the kit supplier went bust and fans couldn’t but a shirt until November. The away shirt was all white, but what that meant was that if the blue and white shirt clashed, chances are the away one did as well. You couldn’t wear either away at Preston for example. They started wearing a yellow away shirt part way through the season, but didn’t sell it in the club shop. You did see the odd fan wearing it, I think they may have sold it in a sports shop in Chapeltown if my memory serves me right.

Whilst I don’t disagree, do they actually need a broadcaster, when they could sell direct to the punter. That way the pie is not shared out equally, which is something that they are arguing about, (why should a televised Burnley v Wolves get the same amount of money as Man Utd v Spurs, which potentially has more viewers) also, it cuts out the middle man, more money for the clubs, less for the media moguls. In 1992 when the PL was set up, it needed a broadcaster with a licence to beam the pictures to your living room, now it just needs a studio in the ground, some cameras and an internet connection.

That and the fact that Spurs have cozied up to American sports with their dual purpose stadium.

If Parrish’s interview on sky is anything to go by, I think he is already banking on it. Isn’t the proposals that 5 ‘lucky’ teams will be invited to join them every year? If one of those is from the Premier League there is a 1 in 14 chance they can ‘qualify’ with a £400m bonus. How many PL teams will be planning a gamble to get the results to join them?

I think that think goal shows Wednesdayite’s class compared to the L*eds fans. Kewell scores a really good goal against us at Hillsborough and he gets an applause. Fast forward 15 years and Matias scores a similar (but Technically better) goal at Elland Road and you look in the crowd and they are all giving him the rods, along with other selected hand gestures.

Completely agree, must be a nightmare for defenders when you are tiring, facing a fresh Nuhiu pushing and shoving you, he is a really good option to have for the last 15-20 minutes.
