[Albion] Fans Forum

[Saunders]

Was it the bloke annoyed that he can't get away tickets, even though he's supported the Albion all the way back to the Goldstone?

He wondered if the club can bring a loyalty scheme for those very long term fans.

I was a Golstone ST holder. I have managed to get 2 out of 3 away tickets this year and I can only currently buy at ST holder level...next year I will probably be in an earlier allocation but thats after 3 years of building up points. These people expecting to jump the queue is just wrong.

He seems to have little discernible talent, so fitness is all we can hope for.

Have marked this post for future reference. Hope it comes back with red face....

CH went through his forwards and what they offer.....Locadia....Andone.....Murray......but no mention of Hemed. An oversight or getting in some pre-season 'toughening up' training before another season of touchline fracas?

Thanks for letting me know that. I had given up on getting a ticket for this game, and had assumed sold out days ago.
Bought ticket, and now there are 445 left still and on general sale for anyone!

Excited about the acquisitions and the strength of the squad but I need some help as can't but see Locadia a blot on the landscape

With these fans forums, do these questions get vetted/previewed before Johnny 'this is Radio Sussex' Cantor picks the fan out?
Only asking as there seemed to be similar questions asked from previous forums.

Hughton rather oddly says they are going to name a squad of 25 tomorrow. Not sure how that’s possible with only 7 HGP - must be 24 - perhaps Norwood to get it up to 8 ?
And then Suttner or Hemed will have to go to get to 17 non HGP - we currently have 18.

Could be Schelotto ? Think Suttner most likely. Could we name Hemed but still let him go to a Championship team before month-end ? Conscious we’d then be down to 23 presumably.

U21s can also be included maybe he will put Gyokeres in the first team but then Norwood would have to be sold

If he's going to name players in 'the 25' that don't count towards 'the 25' then why not name the entire youth system at the same time?

Just can't see it being Hemed as due to the fitness uncertainty of the other forwards he could have a key role in the early weeks. Based on this, and seeing CH as quite a deliberate person, his omission surprised me slightly.

Because you HAVE to name players you have under contract over 21 no matter what to your squad. You dont have to name anyone under 21.

Ben Barclay will presumably be registered. He's 21. Unlikely to play of course.

Given Montoya was confirmed literally just as the forum started, whilst CH will know who is going to be left out it’s quite probable that the individual hadn’t been told, as if the transfer of Montoya fell through then we’d have kept what we have. Suspect someone will be called into his office early tomorrow to be told they haven’t made the squad, then it’ll be announced.

But in competition with Larry Lloyds, Michael Branch and Petr Cheque for a slot.

Unless you've already named 25. I think we had Ahannach for the first half of last season before his loan and he wasn't registered to play league games.

Yes that is true you have to name 25 if you have more than 25 they will be left out which is why we are speculating people would be sold I had forgotten about Ahannach.

 

[AZ Gull]

.... I had forgotten about Ahannach.

I'm sure most people have.

 

[The Large One]

Tlo is like that bloke from any office in a meeting that just has to say something...

Said the bloke who always has to say something regarding anything I do or say. Still obsessively following me on here around like a dirty little pervert, I notice.

 

[Weststander]

You have to be a bit of an Ahannach to have that squad knowledge.
