Match Day Thread Barnsley v Hull City

Agreed.

 

I’m guessing, based on the * on City’s Pay on the Day announcement, that they had originally put on the wrong prices. People may have made the decision to travel having seen the incorrect prices & knowing they had the budget to go.

 

How many kids did they have ben?
Cos it'd be a bugger but unless he had 6 kids I'd still have paid. And then grumble like **** for the rest of my life

 

They had two. They may not have had the readies if on a budget. Cash only. If they rolled up with £60-£70 cash expecting to pay £60 only to be told it’s gonna cost £94 they may not have had a choice.


Hopefully, as good parents, they bought two bags of salt n vinegar from the salmonella burger van & stuck the kids in the car, left them the crisps & returned to watch the game.

 

Surely you just pick your favourite one and take him/her in and leave the other one outside with his/her mam??

 

It was two blokes so maybe they couldn’t decide a favourite if they owned one each. They didn’t look like a “Modern Family” despite the “shove it up their arse” comment.

 

Too right! Or leave all three outside? Then you could have a bet, beer & pie!

 

Shouldn't have taken them anyway. I'd have told their mam they were going then dropped them off at Maccy D's at Goole. Pick em up at about 6 ish. Who's gonna know?

Gotta think outside the box in these financially tough times.

 

Really poor

 

Can we trust those figures of are they made up like all other attendance figures?

If they’re trustworthy, why are they?

 

Didn't think there was that many as there were far more empty seats than occupied ones. How many does it hold? Any idea how many Boro took there as just about every seat seemed full from the snippets of that game that I saw.

 

According to http://www.footballgroundguide.com/leagues/oakwell-barnsley.html the away stand holds 6k - we filled it in '13 and had a request for extra tickets for the stand to the right denied (Barsleh were in a relegation battle after all) - from them scoring after 5 minutes, all you could have hear was false teeth clicking and loud tuts and groans at every misplaced pass. Great to hear loud support on the excellent link provided yesterday.

 

Yes, I commented yesterday on how loud it sounded compared to the noise generated by larger numbers of the sit down shut up brigade at PL matches.

 

Castro, sit down and shut up.

 

**** off, daft ****.

 

Thanks Chazz

 

You should have offered to pay for one of the kids. I would have done.

 

That's good support for City considering we haven't won away since August 2016. Hardly 2,237 glory hunters. Less all those looking for excuses to watch it in the pub/on line/ or not at all.

 

I wasn’t even paying for me.
