    The 5th Investec Ashes Test, England v Australia, The Oval 21-25.08.13

    Someone sitting next to me put 40 quid on before play at 100-1 - not a happy bunny and nor was I after what had been a brilliant days entertainment just missing a conclusion

    Peter Ward Is Magic

    I can remember the singing around the Goldstone like it was yesterday "He's shot, he's scored, it must be Peter Ward..............Peter Ward...............Peter Ward" and the great crowd surges in the North Stand - just brilliant as a young teenager. As for the man himself - class will always...

    Can the volume level be returned to the same as last season? The volume level has been turned down and it was extremely difficult to hear the pre-match announcements and none of our group could hear the Alan Mullery interview which was a real shame :( PS I and everyone around me echo comments...

    Newport match highlights - some positive stuff

    I didn't go but listened on the radio and the match highlights seems to bear out what I heard. JFC unlucky with the disallowed goal - he wasn't offside as their RB played him on but you can see why the lino gave it - interesting to see JFC's play in the build up Nice goal by Barnes who apart...

    Refreshingly 'simple' post match interviews with Oscar

    I've gotta say it is so nice to hear Oscar speak in such straightforward tones after games compared to the histrionics of Gus and his 'eeeeze complicated, you need qualiteee, the referee ruined the game etc. etc. Our Oscar should be commended for his simple, open and honest assessments which...

    E-cash discount

    While this 'improvement' to 60 minutes is sensible, it's so typical of the clubs poor/indecisive communication at the moment, that it's changed at all so soon after being notified in the first place - kind of makes you think they haven't thought this through? Note the "Full-time onwards -...

    E-cash discount

    As others have said, there is an erosion of the ‘feel-good’ factor around The Amex which is a very fine line to tread when the potential downside can be severely amplified if events on the pitch don't go well. Barber certainly is very clever when he speaks and is quite open that fans will be...

    Statement from Mr Barber

    The Club - Mr. Barber - is still in a difficult situaiton but how much is due to them? This statement contains some utter bollox such as "we do intend to appoint an experienced interim manager to oversee first-team training, working with our existing staff. Given the uncertainty of recent weeks...

    New Away Season Ticket

    Agreed about the lack of consultation particularly as they've 20k+ STH's and it's surprising they haven't sought any large scale feedback but they seem to know what we want. I also think it's very poorly written and in many ways poses more questions than answers

    I hope the pies are better next season

    I'm surprised no-one has questioned how much they (and other items) will go up in price? Will they try and do the same as last season with an above inflation price rise which conveniently 'forgets' how much they were the previous season. If they hit the £4 plus barrier even with the cash back...

    How much do you think players should earn?

    Yes they do generate a lot of money but don't you think 40 or 50 quid for a replica shirt is a rip off? Yes lots of people pay that money but whether or not it's a sensible decision is another matter. The whole thing is a complete financial bonanza for the clubs who IMHO commercially exploit a...

    How much do you think players should earn?

    Of course wages/salaries are way too high and it's only going to get worse with more and more foreign million and billionaires coming into the game paying artificially high wages to win win win.............which of course they can't all do. You've got to start with the tv money which is obscene...

    [Albion] Is there a way back for Gus?

    Very very unlikely and what Gus should do is look at how someone like Roberto Martinez has conducted himself recently and learn from it. Everyone knows Martinez is likely to leave but his comments, particulalrly during the FA Cup parade in Wigan have been totally respectful to Wigan and very...

    Sergio Garcia - Daft Racist??

    Sergio was wrong to say what he did but Woods is a complete 'cock' - he doesn't understand the concept of sportsmanship and when Sergio sees him get away with his cheating antics at the Masters and then disrupt his shot at Sawgrass when be blatantly told a lie which the course officials didn't...

    Player ratings vs Palace

    Well having endured Monday night live from my normal position in the WSU, let the dust settle, watch it again on the telly, it was actually worse than I remembered at the time and with the events of the last 18 hours it's probably no coincidence that what was possibly our worst, or at the least...
