whenever tickets have been sent back because of low uptake by the away supporters they open up in resale to EVERYBODY. that has been the case ever since they introduced their ballot/general sale/ resale system. this is fucking farcical man, theyre excluding thousands of supporters without any kind of announcement to changes to their own fucking rules. it's inexcusable, theyre absolute weapons grade thundercunts.

as of a few minutes ago. only available to the 2nd chance ballot winners, the hundreds that were sent back by barcelona, theyre not selling but no fucker else can see them. I genuinely hope some CUNT loses their job over this.

I think it's called realism. next to nowt had changed other than the enforced west stand since keegan had left as a player. he commented on so. the changing rooms hadn't seen a bottle of domestic for getting on a decade. -

im willing to bet keegan's team had the better xg. which by gemmill law makes him the greatest manager in football history. -

by a long way? really? I like howe, I have no issue with a bit of howe adulation, but by a long way? those of us at filbert street in'92 remember vividly being a hair's width away from dropping in to the 3rd division for the first time in our history. next season we romped to promotion. first season back in the top flight, a 3rd place finish to qualify for european football for the first time since the mid 70s. the following season 6th. the season after we were with in a whisker of being champions, pipped by what is the most dominant team and most successful manager in premier league history. keegan's 3rd place wouldve qualified us for the champions league now. keegan's 2nd place team wouldve qualified us for the champions league now. the team keegan assembled did qualify for the champions league and not much of the credit for that goes to kenny fucking dalglish. we we're playing football in a stadium where the leazes end had no roof and was about a dozen steps deep and had been for getting on a decade and a half. the gallowgate end hadn't changed since I started going in '67, the bogs were a genuine health hazard that hadn't been cleaned since then either. ive no doubt had it not been for the tragedy at bradford the old wooden west stand would've still been there too. keegan's influence dragged us from what was a shithole towards the 21st century. and none of us here would've witnessed watching the greatest goalscorer in our history. im as happy as the next man that howe won us a trophy for the first time since I was seven, but fucking hell, I haven't let it cloud my memory or my judgement. howe is the best ever manager by a long way? give your head a shake man. -
I was offered a ticket for the barcelona game last night, sadly I can't make it now. while initially the wife would've been able to adjust her work schedule to accommodate me winning in the ballot (i know) it's now too late. what's interesting though is that the person the ticket offer originated from was contacted by the club yesterday via email offering him one, he accepted it despite knowing they couldn't go. so where the fuck has this ticket come from? is it one of the 100 from scottish schools/banned season ticket holders? have they held another ballot for 100 tickets and my mate was one of the lucky winners? why the fuck didn't the tickets go back in to the resale system? why the fuck is this resale button inactive the vast majority of the time? why the fuck can't they offer any kind of transparency whatsoever? the entire system is fucking pathetic.

he also pioneered the revolutionary send a substitute on without giving them any instructions where to play system.

ah right. I can't afford to go in there.

aye. that last scene is traumatic.

it is nice, but I prefer the scotch bonnet one, and it doesn't compete heat wise with the one I posted on the previous page. its like lava in a bottle. where you getting the encona one from then? tesco only seem to stock the original (which i really like) and thai sweet chilli, which is more for girlie's, like gemmill.

tip of the iceburg mate. and a token gesture by the club. ive said this before but when I last got a ticket in the ballot, bournemouth last season, I bought 2 at the beginning of the 'winners' window. I then went back in about 10 minutes before the window closes 2 days later and rough counted how many were left, I made it just over 2,500. this pretty much ties in with what I always suspected based on the chance of getting a ticket in general sale in relation to queue position. you'd pretty much always get one with a place of 3,500 or less, due to the amount of multi logins. not the case anymore, hasn't been all this season. people including @Christmas Tree were getting fuck all at less then 1500. if the club want to avoid fingers being pointed in their direction that they're complicit, then they need to start offering some transparency. how many tickets are won by ballot. how many tickets go to general sale. why resale tickets which were reasonably plentiful for the last couple of years have recently dropped off the map, because I dont believe for one second that people are no longer not finding circumstances mean they can't make a match and aren't selling them back to the club.

the wife also bought me a packet of peanuts from the same market stall and ive just given them a go. she asked if they were as hot as the sauce and I said they're quite mild, so she gave them a go. she now thinks im a cunt. they're probably not for you either!

oh dear, craig joining gemmill in the namby pamby gang. if I was take a punt id say the pair of you both put a squiggly line of that weak as piss french's american mustard on your hot dogs. @Rayvin... if I was properly recommending a hot sauce I would go for the encona scotch bonnet, it is hot but not ludicrously so and is really fruity and sweet. econa also do a carolina reaper one too but it's not in the same league for heat as the one I posted originally, to the point whereby you'd doubt they were made from the same chilli. tesco stocked both the enconas for a while seem to anymore, you can buy them online though. as to the original jorvik chilli, the wife bought it knowing full well id have to give it a go. it's stupidly hot to the point of making snot run out your nose. worth having a bottle in the house just to see how many of your friends are stupid enough to have a slug of it.

complete fabrication, don't believe a word of it. real men have phals for breakfast and a beefy boys hell boy burger for their supper.
