  2. Safe Standing- Government seeking advice on laws to review

    A message from the Football Supporters Federation. The new coalition government has pledged to scrap unnecessary and “nannying” laws.

  4. Joke Twitter Accounts

    Seems to be a recurring theme that someone is setting up Twitter accounts for footballers... The funniest one so far was Lucas Leiva's, although that was suspended after two days of fake Tweets pretending to be about Liverpool's journey to Madrid with such classics as: "Alberto's been standing...

    Gigs

    It's seemed to me for a while now that there should be a place on this forum for gigs that people have been to recently(and what they thought about the band) and/ or upcoming concerts and their venues. So here goes.;) Have to say that it's been a bit quiet here on the gigs front recently(it...

  9. Question Peterborough - Standing or Sitting?

    Not seen this mentioned on here yet but half our allocation is for covered terraced stand. Just wondering whether people have been buying those tickets instead of those in seated area as its a rare opportunity to stand without getting grief from the stewards.

    Kicked To the Curb

    There's never a dull moment in the EPL. Just 24 hours after the farcical scenes at St James Park, Alan Curbishley nipped in ahead of Kevin Keegan to become the first manager of the season to leave his club, resigning after an unhappy spell at West Ham. The history books will hint at a short...

  19. will they get rid of the a.hole stewards next year with the crowds being lower

    after more fun and games on sat with the stewards in the west side, it got me wondering that with the crowds, dropping considerably and many less away fans, will we still have the over zealous stewarding that we have had in the last season, after all less fans should mean less stewards. i for...

    Makes you think ...

    A stranger was seated next to a little girl on the airplane when the stranger turned to her and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger." The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the...
