Prices increase in each round. Final tickets are between £3100 and £6600. Add in extortionate hotels and flights. All adds up to empty stadiums. Or corporate numptys. Insanity and greed. I’d love to see it boycotted but the problem is supporters will complain but then pay up anyway No doubt a large part of the crowds will be those on a corporate jolly up with no interest in the game anyway 3
richy65 Posted December 13, 2025 Posted December 13, 2025 Nice to wake up to a Baggies win today. 14th but 3 points off the play offs, crazy. Stoke making a mess of things and @Britboy Ipswich looking more threatening now 1
galenkia Posted December 13, 2025 Posted December 13, 2025 3-1 loss at Middlesbrough but we generally don’t do well there.

Talk about throwing the players under the bus, wow . . . Ipswich did look threatening after we beat Coventry and Stoke, but typically yesterdays performance at Leicester was atrocious. 2 steps forward and 1 back, that's been our season so far. 2

Wish Rovers were in the process of 2 steps forward and 1 back. These days we are 3 steps back and 3 steps further back! 1 2
coxyhog Posted December 14, 2025 Posted December 14, 2025 Football as it used to be....😂January 1982 and a bloke in a brown Mini Clubman casually watches Oldham v Watford from the track surrounding the pitch! I'd love to have seen the players crawling underneath the car to retrieve the ball, just like we used to when playing football in the street . 4 1

richy65 Posted December 27, 2025 Posted December 27, 2025 Poor again from the Baggies yesterday. Losing every away game and now a home defeat. All we hear from the manager are excuses about offsides and red cards blah, blah, blah. Not good enough
coxyhog Posted December 28, 2025 Posted December 28, 2025 Second away win of the season for the 'Orn's,now we need the third on Monday at Norwich. 1

Great result for my Tractor boys . . . 😂 They were the days games were played really close together and at Christmas time they played the same team home and away on 26th and 28th. On Dec 28th, having lost 10-1 to Fulham on 26th, we beat them 4-2 at home in the "return leg". And after Man U lost 6-1 to Burnley on 26th, they beat them 5-1 on 28th.

Can’t say I’m surprised after the recent disagreements with the owners etc It’s the directors of football or whatever they have spending hundreds of millions on shit players. They are the ones that need to go. Yet the manager will always get fired and players get away with being shit and lazy. They use some computer nerd in his mums basement saying the stats say he’s good. Actually watch the players like in the old days when you had a network of scouts around Europe.

I’ve heard Chelsea supporters say the same. They don’t scout the players like the old days, just study the stats 1

Great win at Coventry, bit if a scruffy affair last night, but we got the job done. With Borough and Hull losing plus Coventry dropping another two points we're in decent shape with Pompey away and Blackburn at home the next 2 league games. Watford playing great and I can actually see Coventry dropping off. Could be the hornet and the horse as the autos . . ✌️ 3
