Live by the sea

I think this someone is talking bollox, I’m definitely not tired of life but I hate going there.

London in my view has pros and cons - the pros are that there is lots to do , theatre , music , clubs , museums, art galleries etc so it’s nice to go up for the day or spend maybe a weekend there .

The downside is , it’s dirty , over crowded , people can be rude and the driving up there is far more intolerable than even in Brighton . There’s no sense of community in London , possibly because it’s so spread out and for many people there English is not their first language . It’s also got some very high crime areas in certain small areas & gang violence.

Saying that if you can afford to live in south Ken or Hampstead you would probably think it’s a great place to live but most people who aren’t multi millionaires can’t afford to .

On balance living down here especially in the nice parts of Brighton and Hove is far
Nicer , much less hassle, not over crowded and more of a community feel . Also much less violence and there is something very reassuring living near the sea . I love the proximity of the beach you get in Hove and as far along as the pier.

One of the main reasons I decided to move from NYC apart from family reasons was the beach and the laid back lifestyle whilst still be close to London when needed .

Anyway back to the football !

The available blocks seem to be selling fast. I wonder when they can bring the other blocks online?

Going fast!

I wonder how many people have tickets in their basket (as I do) waiting for 'better' blocks to come online.

Is there a limit as to how long I can keep a pair of tickets without buying them?

Really irritating again.

We ALL know the better blocks will be released, but WHEN exactly? Can't sit around waiting 'til all the duff ones have gone.

'Not our fault, Spurs fault' etc etc

More complicated this time. The clubs will be really uncertain as to how many of the 9k tickets we will actually sell. FA cup, 8pm Sat, on TV, no trains home make it very difficult to guess how many we will sell. Therefore they are only offering some blocks to start with.

Hardly, the lower tier blocks are excellent at this stadium. The rear of the upper blocks are too far away from the pitch.

421, 422, 423 etc are probably the 'best' but there are no bad blocks or restricted views so let's be realistic.

The worst ones.

Becomes a game of 'hold your nerve'.

For example, 113 should have been available right away.

To be fair they have released the 'safe standing' tickets first.

But, they should have also released some that aren't safe standing I guess

Anyone else had issues where it lets you assign a ticket to a My Albion + member but not a STH?
