What are the chances of a bunch of 8 lads getting tickets to the ManU match?

You might be able to go the 'hospitality' route, but that wouldn't be inexpensive...

The view from my new seat. BMU.

Did you get a pair of those little hand binoculars like you get in the higher seats at the theatre in your season ticket pack Suz…..

PrestonHammer

Two goals. ;nonono I hope we are attacking that end first half and then the other goal is removed at half time.

BubblesNeverDies

Suze, does the pitch really seem so distant as it does in the photo? ;nonono

SuzanneClaret

Didn’t need them AdMe and no it doesn’t Bubbles.

The pitch is a lot closer than the photo makes out. It was a very good view, unfortunately.

SuzanneClaret

The etihad wasn’t full either ;biggrin

mike

What seats were you in last season suze. ?

SuzanneClaret

Same side as the dugout between the half way line and the Bobby Moore stand, in the upper tear near the back.

SuzanneClaret

Another casualty, the Denmark Arms closed at the end of July, the landlord reckoned business was down £400k since we moved to Stratford.

Antic are rumoured to be buying it but no confirmation yet.

Craft beer/real ale type pubs, big on the food. They took over the Railway Tavern next to Forest Gate station, its now the Forest Tavern.

They probably won't be serving Fosters or Stella...

BubblesNeverDies

Aslef, have you been in the Forest Tavern, what's it like?

ASLEFshrugged

Pretty standard hipster pub, stripped wood floors, "interesting" décor and furnishings, at weekends its pretty much families in for the food.

The usual craft beer suspects (Crate, Five Points, Camden Hells), not the cheapest pint in town and doesn't open until 4pm Monday to Thursday.

Did are we not allowed ball boys at the stadium? It’s ridiculous how long the ball goes out of play for. Seems worse this year than previous.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

The stadium is the reason we are in such a mess

Different players, different managers, different tactics etc and while many blame the fans I've heard the fans try to get behind the team over and over only to see players mess up a 5 yard pass

Also sad to see the film where they blew up Upton Park is coming out (or is already out)

PrestonHammer

I'm sorry but the stadium is no excuse. If they haven't comes to terms with playing there now, they never will.

jay_in_cpt

Blaming the stadium IMO is a very very poor excuse.

ASLEFshrugged

We're in a mess because the owners think they know how to run a football club, the same reason we've been in messes at various times since Len Cearns sacked John Lyall and hired Lou Macari.
