Does the club honestly think a midweek evening match at The Amex requires LESS park and ride/travel arrangements etc than a JPT match at Withdean? HONESTLY?

I HOPE that just means they have made arrangements with someone else and just won't be using B&H Buses anymore. Perhaps they were charging too much or something. I HOPE...

Nail on the heading hittingly accurate summary.

The club is aware of the annoyance all this has caused. Not sure it will result in anything changing, but would be good if it was taken on board so perhaps different if we get through and draw someone crap at home in the second round.

Agreed. Some of the personalised attacks are akin to playground bullying. Which is ironic coming from teachers. However, he IS an arse.

Certainly don't expect it. But as this is a thread discussing the merits of stories on Daybreak, not sure that mentioning This Morning as another regular offender is THAT surprising a twist.

Ah, I stand corrected.

This Morning is just as bad. Currently some woman from the radio (sat next to Gordon Smart of The Sun) moaning about the fact the death of the guy from Glee has been described as a tragedy when, in her opinion, it isn't because he took drugs. Then talking about how parents at her child's school...

They could do an equally EASY piece on something like Foodbanks, or a family struggling to make ends meet etc. But they don't.

That is a BRILLIANT anecdote.

Almost ALWAYS leans right though...

True, of course. I don't think the Daybreak team has any agenda. But it's editorial policy does not help. It doesn't HAVE to do features on these extreme cases. It doesn't have to invite reactionary right leaning radio hosts/newspaper columnists on to discuss the day's news and invariably find...

Didn't say you were. I said the MEDIA were.

There are already large number of people living in poverty in the UK. Might not live in shanty towns, but they are there. Usually being demonised by the media.

Club: "Tickets for Newport County are only £12. We wanted to make them cheaper. Look at us giving something back to the fans.*" * You will, of course, have to pay us £1.50 for the privilege of buying a ticket and if you drive to the match, you won't be able to. And if you use public transport...

Keep on finding poor people for us to hate. Deflects nicely from the bigger issues.

Surely the club could operate ONE park and ride site for people who have to drive to the game?
