Re: TV Fixtures

^^^ Arsenal playing in the Champions League on the Tuesday means they can't play the previous Sunday when they are currently scheduled to play Spurs. So we swap with the Spurs vs Arsenal match. We won't get confirmation until 9/10 days beforehand - Arsenal play their 2nd quarter final leg on Wednesd...

^^^ Lots of singles in the lower tier at the sides - nothing behind the goals. Loads towards the back of the upper tier all round. It doesn't go on General Sale until 11am Monday.

Re: Away Tickets Thread - Leverkusen S/O 51+ Pts

That won’t happen. No names on tickets and they’re not going to spend the resources to check everyone has a valid booking, would take forever. If someone was found to not have a booking there’s absolutely no way of telling who supplied that ticket anyway. A number of clubs are checking at the away ...

Re: Away Tickets Thread - The European Scramble......continues

Lets remember that Leverkusen only had to give us 1500 tickets plus 200 corporate. If we look at last season, Roma only got the same allocation that we have been given. The response from Nicola Keye to the ISC was that more tickets were made available to us by taking the standing section. She also ...

Re: Away Tickets Thread - The European Scramble......continues

Think it is the same. Typical German away end, safe standing. Oddly, they'd bolted all the chairs shut though, so you couldn't sit on them. In Europe and Scotland where for standing use, rail seats are tipped up and locked out of the way to leave each row completely free of any obstruction. In some...

Re: Top Flight Clubs Fail to Agree EFL Funding Deal

I still don't understand why it's government's business to tell the PL, other than paying its taxes what it must do with its money. I don't disagree that it's in the PL's interest to financially support lower levels, but I can't see why this particular sport should have a government regulator impos...

^^^ It could be Ampika Pickston running the club and instead of Ofsted trying to close things down due to mismanagement, it will be the Premier League.

Gold's shares. The other owners have first refusal and Ampika has told Sully there's better things to do with his money.

With some proper coverage from TNT sports as well. Just checked what time we're on and some programme is on there now called The Football's On featuring Carlton Cole and some others. Talking about West Ham if anyone interested. Edit. Gutted I've missed half of this programme, looks like it's a fans...

There will be shuttle buses from the guest bus car park to Karlsplatz (city centre). It is possible that after the departure of the first buses...

Any idea how many tickets are left for Newcastle? Has reached my points tally but debating if it's worth the risk of waiting until it hits my brothers on 22....

Re: Takeover talk

How does inheritance tax on those shares work. 40% of the value once sold? Nice little earner for the tax man. Why do I think that may not happen. I'm assuming inheritance tax includes the estate (including shares) but how would the taxman have known value of shares. Anyway it's only a question, I'...

Re: Takeover talk

I'm a bit tired so forgive me if I'm wrong here, but isn't your calculation for 1%, not 1 share? Not sure if having fans buying individual shares would really be a good thing in practice. Too many people involved when a decision needs to be made. Assume that the valuation of the club is £650m and t...

An individual share would cost £189,000 - 10% (344 shares) would be £65m.
