I was thinking of the same Colemanballs, but when I looked it up apparently Coleman always denied saying blaming Ron Pickering. But Pickeringsball don't roll off the tongue as well Colemaballs

Given neither set of fans is excited at the prospect of facing each other again, how about both sets of fans boycott it and let the broadcasters explain the empty stadium to the overseas viewers. Who ever they are.

Anybody having trouble buying tickets on line. The 'Proceed to Payment button doesn't seem to work

Tried Chrome and Edge, finally got it working on Firefox. But still got Huddersfield audio. Bizarre

I would love to see some sort of class action against the EFL and Ifollow. Perhaps it could be crowdfunded. They sold us a service and didn't supply it, surely there is a case there. And not just Wednesday fans, but for every championship club. They are taking the .... insert expletive as required. My experience was that I managed to redeem my code and logged in on my laptop on Thursday. I tried to logged with the app on my tablet, but it failed and I was locked out and told to reset my password. So I tried to reset but no reset email was sent. I tried several times without any joy. I contacted Ifollow by email on Thursday night. After no response I sent several more emails on Friday. On Saturday morning I tried again to reset my password and got the reset email within minutes - result, and I was happy. Come match time I tried to log in on a laptop without success. Eventually I managed to log in on my tablet with the app about 30 minutes in. It froze throughout the match probably 10 times throughout the game. This morning I got an email from Ifollow telling me to reset my password by clicking the reset button this after the only I contacted them was because it wasn't working! Bit late. There must be a way of getting recompense for such a poor service

Anyone having problems with password reset? I redeemed my voucher and got it working on my laptop then tried to access it via my tablet, but it wouldn't accept the password and eventually said I must either customer service or reset the password. The reset doesn't send a link. I've emailed Ifollow without success Does anyone know of any way to contact hem?

Wednesday's new back three

And the BBC did just that

Thank goodness, the Ifollow audio was pitiful. Watch a midweek game and it was a blessing when the audio failed. Vowed never to buy the Saturday afternoon commentary Wonder who blinked first?

This decision seems very short sighted and isolates the club from its supporters and equally important, potential supporters. The BBC Radio Sheffield PAY the club, not a huge amount of money to broadcast (advertise) their product, potentially, into every home in the region. Every home where there could be a new Wednesday fan (or is it now, customer). How many Wednesday fans who, for whatever reason cannot afford to go to lots of games, follow via the radio, and having been excited by what they hear are then inspired to attend. Many ardent fans will have started this way and eventually end up with a season ticket as circumstance changed. No one will casually, buy a IFollow pass and so the disconnection starts. You cannot grow the fans base that way. The Blades must be loving this "Dad, which football team do I support?" Dad, with no affilatiation thinks 'Which one has the cheaper shirts, tickets prices, and we can listen on the radio too'' "There's only one team in Sheffield - United" It just seems very short sighted and another squeeze on what will be a evermore disgruntled core fan base.

As this is the Carlos appreciation thread, you might like to know that Carlos is currently being appreciated on BBC 6Music by Stuart Maconie who has just discovered various Carlos analogy quotes: After the Arsenal game "We are breathing again now, we are not dead anymore. " After the Liverpool game "They are like a Formula 1 car. But at 4pm in London it will be difficult to speed, they would be a car like any other. "We needed to make sure there was traffic, we could not let them have open roads to drive in." Not sure he's seen the £20 note yet

Buy one from the Royal British Legion. It's a sign of remembrance that supports a charity, not a fashion statement that lines the pockets of a parasite

Surprised they didn't tell you it improves the match day experience. That's what it said in the press release. Just not sure whose experience they are referring to, certainly not the fans

You could phone the ticket office. That would be novel.

A £1.20 ticket in 1979 would cost about £6.00 in today's money. Average earnings today are about £26500. To put it in context this is from the telegraph and refers to 1980 "While Britons got by on an average wage of £6,000 (the equivalent of about £19,000 today), petrol cost 28p a litre (90p), a pint of beer was 35p (£1.10), a loaf of bread 33p (£1.10) and a pint of milk 17p (54p) Expecting the game against Bristol City to be at least 6 or 7 times as entertaining as the Boxing Day massacre!
