I had to leave the house laughably early to get in at about the same time as normal this morning. It's taken some of my colleagues three hours to get here. We face the same to get home, or worse. For public transport to be in the state it's in, in the capital city (and much of the surrounding...

Like many on here, the Cup points bumped me into the 1100+ so I've bought mine this morning as well. A major relief because £114 for hospitality tickets and then not mentioning that fact to Mrs Herne Hill would have represented a moral conundrum of the first order...

Not always, Bigtom. I had to wait for them to open the right block, several days after the tickets initially went on sale, to be able to get my own seat for yesterday. Depends on the opponents, I suspect.

You can see on the penalty footage, when Hemed equalises, there's a little block of them behind and just to the right of the goal from the fans' point of view, who don't celebrate. So there were some in the neutral section, for sure.

Yep. Love going to Fulham, even before we've started to have a good record there. An increasingly rare type of ground.

It's not clear how the 'keeper would be paid under his revolutionary 'pay them by the metre they've run' system. They may end up conceding because Smithies has hared off down the other end to bump up his wages.

Baileys. Very strictly a December-only drink. So much so that among my mates, December 1st is known as Baileys Day.

The way they're selling them isn't helping. My seat, like those of my mates next to me, is in W1H. I can't currently buy that seat because they're selling them from the centre outwards, so have no guarantee of sitting in my usual spot with my mates around me; the website currently shows that...

Blimey - for a modern-day interview that was a blinding contrast to the usual coached, anodyne platitudes. Though regrettably brought about by the worst possible reasons, we've been seeing footballers as humans a bit more in these past few weeks. Some timely reminders that they're people...

We should be having a pop at Sky while we're at it.

One point on his view of 'no shows' - they have absolutely no idea how many season ticket holders don't show. If I can't go, I make sure I get my season ticket to one of my mates so the seat's used. I don't charge them for this, and simply absorb the cost. I imagine a large number of people with...

Yes they are - last few: Fulham 29,445 Villa 30,107 Norwich 29,469 Wolves 25.231 PNE 27,606 Barnsley 26,018 Even as announced sales rather than attendances, there's nothing in there remotely worrying enough for the club to start caring, especially given their announcements that they're on for...

It's not me who needs the reasons, Notters. I understand them all too well and have plenty of reasons not to go myself - so many games are being moved that I'm one of the people having to reconsider owning a season ticket, and have to book a half day off work every midweek home game just to give...

Why should they, dazzer? The games are still selling out, people are still coming. Their only imperative to make any fuss, either with Sky or SASTA, is if people start to bale on the games. Not likely at the moment.

Cheers, ditchy. I'll take your advice under consideration. I wasn't one of the 7,000, though have no problem with anybody who was. If it had been your club, you may feel differently.

Charlton, please. Shared gate receipts means putting money into Franchise FC to watch a home game otherwise.

Done.

Fitting end to what's been a great World Series, with the best team over the regular season winning it, for me. I went to bed at around 2am with the Cubs 5-1 up, thinking they'd broken the game's back. Shame I missed the greater part of an epic, but on a school night and all...

I wouldn't personally question his quality as a player on one game - certainly he did extremely well at this level for Brentford and we obviously saw plenty in him to make such a bid. But the club make plenty about signing players who are right for the dressing room and the club as a whole, not...

The hanging on at the end is not good for the old ticker. I don't understand why we leave absolutely nobody up for those corners. Leave one of the shorter, quicker players up or, no matter how effectively you may clear a corner, the ball's coming back at you because there's absolutely nobody to...
