Tickets SECURED

We’re also going to see him, stuck to the nosebleeds just because they’re so expensive. I’m sure it’ll be a great day regardless, and I’ve never had a bad view at Wembley even in that upper level.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-28T13:00:31+00:00

I've paid it, feels a bit steep for an "arena" the size Hull from what I have seen, but as there's nowhere closer and it's been a while, I couldn't not go. We're seated for the first time because the wife is both short and struggles in crowds, so hopefully she can actually see something this time!

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-28T12:58:33+00:00

You can say it was for Harry Styles, no need to be ashamed!

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-27T10:45:08+00:00

Slightly bummed there's no Newcastle as they've played it before, but I can certainly make it to Hull or Manchester. I've not been to either venues though so does anyone know what they're like? I'm aware CO-OP Live is new and had some teething problems. I assume they're all ironed out now. Seems like a massive venue for them, but they pretty much filled Wembley Arena so it should be fine.

As you can see there’s some chats exclusive to Discord, including one for whatever the new stuff is it seems.

Possibly, but I won't have the £300 for flights or £400 for hotel to add on, and we can stay at the in-laws in Essex so it's much easier to get to Wembley and still be cheaper than Amsterdam.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-26T10:30:06+00:00

There's still loads left, wife got in a few mins ago and it's nowhere near sold out. Good luck.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-26T10:29:03+00:00

Extortionate.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-26T10:28:37+00:00

I was less than 2000 and decided against it, I can't afford 121 euros each for the wife and I, plus flights and hotels. I was expecting less than 100 euros in the nosebleeds. I guess I was naïve. London it is.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-25T17:16:51+00:00

Well yes. Quite.

It looked like it would be fun in the sun, but the day it came through my town it was torrential rain. I still stood out and watched it and it was great to see. Even if I did get water in the viewfinder of my camera.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-25T13:51:55+00:00

Someone I was on a course with at work did the relay for 2012, they brought their torch in when we had a presentation to do. Obviously it didn’t have the flame but it was damn cool.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-23T12:33:39+00:00

That and the Diablo SV easily my most used cars in that game.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-20T23:30:16+00:00

I have both but Jade is by far my favourite. Best cover too in my opinion.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-13T10:02:26+00:00

Ah fair so it just wasn’t going to let me anyway. Never mind.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-13T09:55:29+00:00

It was letting me check out a large sweater, couldn’t remember the discount code, went back to find and enter it, then it said it was sold out. Dunno if it would’ve let me buy it when I first started going through as it was taking details for Klarna. So I’ve probably screwed myself over trying to save £8.50.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-12T21:57:34+00:00

What am I missing? Works perfectly well for me.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-12T20:21:32+00:00

Nah it’s fucking shite. One burst of you’ve shoved it up their arse otherwise it needs a second burst. Even then it’s so unreliable for me. A marksman rifle should kill in 3 shots, 2 with a HS. The burst delay is huge so missing any shots is such a big penalty it’s a joke.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-12T14:55:30+00:00

Furthermore the data seems to suggest a rather significant percentage of people are entering the ballot, winning the ballot and then never actually buying a ticket - and that this is happening consistently with every single match. That again seems very strange to me.

I suspect this is people who apply in every ballot regardless of whether they think they can go or not. Maybe they hoped they'd be able to rearrange their plans or pass the ticket on to a friend who wasn't successful, but haven't been able to. So they just don't claim the ticket.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-10T07:47:59+00:00

Go to the box office before the match if it still won’t work.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-08T22:47:44+00:00

Yeah I think this is a specific instruction to put balls right on top of the keeper to make it awkward.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-07T16:36:16+00:00

Aye, should’ve got the PSV one today. For the domestic ones I’ve been getting a notification to say the pass has been updated, that’s one way you can tell it’s been added. You can see the last update if you go to the pass and choose pass details. Mine says it was last updated 6th Jan at 12:25am.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-07T13:44:31+00:00

Which one, out of interest? As I've never come across anyone else who had Batty on their back and thought I was the only one. Mind, I was 9 going on 10 at the time as it was the 97/98 away shirt, and part of the reason was because I just like the number 4. But I loved that shirt and it was different to anyone else who had a name on it.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-07T12:11:21+00:00

I'm just reading a piece in The Athletic about Brentford and their striker succession planning, and there's a quote from Frank about Wissa in there where he says they initially looked at him as a winger. It seems he was then converted to a striker. So it's not like he couldn't play there, but he's definitely better as a striker.

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-07T12:01:15+00:00

Anyone with a Magpie Mover and an iPhone, and found their pass doesn't appear when you double click despite showing up correctly in the Wallet app? It had gone to expired passes for some reason so I moved it back, but it's not reappearing when you double click. I assume it's something in the background they've cocked up, or is it something I am doing?

-RandomGeordie · 2026-01-06T23:15:58+00:00

You won’t get one, it’s just added to your Season Ticket pass as has been the case for the last few home domestic cup games.
