Pre match you go to a bar/pub, HT it's 15 mins standing in a queue.Croydon said:
But why is the free ticket not just valid for anywhere in the ground? It's not like any area is sold out, so why does it matter?shine166 said:
The ST holding friends can move anywhere they want by emailing the club. Tbh a free ticket for a jab is a great offer, it's not like they spent £500 to get a free Bovril.Croydon said:Mate of mine got a free ticket for this match, when getting his jab at The Valley, but has just realised the voucher is only valid for West Stand seats in block G.
Surely if the club wants to encourage new supporters, it should allow fans with free tickets to attend near the seats of their ST holding mates, rather than force them to attend a match on their own? There's over 200 empty seats in my block in the Upper North, so just seems bizarre.
Also unless you're next to your mates, they may aswell be in a different stand... but you can't promise 1000 ppl a seat exactly nect to someone they may know with a ST. Most of those ppl that got jabs, probably don't know a ST holding friend.
Also, the bit in bold couldn't be more wrong. What about pre-match and HT in the concourse?
Feel free to move closer to your mate though for just the 1 game, it costs you nothing to get it sorted 👍.
These are just solutions to the issue, I agree though that it does no harm offering people to pick where they sit.1 -
I don't want to sit in the West as the atmosphere is crap, and now he's just not going to attend as he cba to sit in a dead stand on his own, on a Tuesday night. I get there are solutions to the issue, but some common sense/leeway from the club and they could be earning some supporters with these offers.shine166 said:

Anyway, I see us winning tomorrow - 2-0 Charlton1 -
NA wasn't the manager when we played Wimbledon at home. He never started all 4 of them together, maybe because they weren't all fit at the same time? Washington pinged his hammy early against AFC, DJ replaced him, by the time Washington was fit DJ was injured.EveshamAddick said:Last season NA picked Washington to play up front with Stockley. Millar on the left and DJ on the right (home vs Wimbledon). If Washington is fit, why not him and Stockley up top, CBT/ Kirk on the left and Leko/ DJ on the right. Davison can replace Stockley on 60 mins.0 -

Sounds as if he’ll be available tomorrow though, yet according to our Ronnie he was wrapped up in ice from last Tuesday to Friday 🤷♂️.msomerton said:CBT not fit. supposedly the physio did not want him to play on Saturday.1 -
100% THIS. !!Elthamaddick said:fed up with having a squad of players, all of whom seem to have to 'manage their minutes' does every other team have to do this?
we've a top 6 budget in this league yet can't sign players who can play twice a week0 -
Have a look at the goals conceded from his mistakes. He will be a very good player but is still learning, yes he is better and fitter than Arter but Watson has the know how that Dobson needs to add to his game, it will come.bolloxbolder said:I don't understand why Dobson isn't playing. To me he is the only mobile young holding player we have. We looked more solid v Wednesday and Wigan when he played. Surely better than Arter, Watson and Morgan.1 -
Sorry to put a damper on things but we haven't won at home under lights for years. A few draw but mainly defeats.shine166 said:Absolutely buzzing for this, my first floodlit game in years.4 -
I really dont see why he is "doubtful". He hasnt had a recent injury & by all accounts we are going by his historical injury record.RonnieMoore said:CBT very doubtful for tomorrow … do they take another risk ?0 - Sponsored links:

Lincoln City, second to last home game of the season just a few months ago and our last home game at night.golfaddick said:

We won four evening games in total at the Valley last season.
Although if you only want to count fans in the ground then Burton Albion in March 2019 was the last time... Only been six evening games (inc. the Doncaster Play-Off match) since then though if you do that, three of them were draws9 -
Worse than never winning under lights, we haven't won a September league game for a whole year!4

No we're not, we're going by a number of factors that could show up previously unknown tightness in muscles etc.golfaddick said:

Basically the Sports Science team will be testing and monitoring the players regularly.
One very basic test example might be if they can explode off their toes doing a vertical jump or lift weight in a calf raise... If they cannot consistently meet a base point (height in cm for the jump or consistent clean reps of a weight for the calf raise) it is likely they have an underlying issue which could be either achilles or calf related.
On occasion it may just be the muscles haven't recovered adequately from a sudden increase in activity.

Dont we also have that "machine" that can detect potential hamstring injuries.
I say machine like that as didnt we still end up having a few last season? - Wouldnt be surprised if CBT is at risk from them, explosive sprinter like that, right out of the Danny Haynes school of chocolate hammys4 -
At least Danny’s hammy problems were genuine whereas distinctly remember Marcus Bent pulling up first half (can’t remember who against) at home when he was having a mare as if a sniper had got him from the back of the West stand 😏.ForeverAddickted said:Dont we also have that "machine" that can detect potential hamstring injuries.

Don't worry, if I get to see a mate I've not seen for a few weeks, have a few beers and a sing.. then I've had a good evening.golfaddick said:

This will be a tough test, if the team turns up as per the other games the season we're in for a walloping. I can honestly see us getting turned over by a 3 goal margin.
If the team turns up that we've seen 15 minute glimpses of we could sneak a draw, however I'm a realist....... Adkins will make 3-4 changes minimum, we'll get overrun in midfield due to playing a variation of 4 1 1 1 1 2, we'll be 0-2 by half time, a 10 minute spell in the second where we get a goal back, only to concede another one or two as the game draws to a close, Adkins walks the plank for another day despite us being bottom 2.....
But I live in hope, he may play a more conventional 4-4-2 and not ask Pearce & Lavelle to religiously be our playmakers from the back, he may allow experienced professionals to play the game as they read it on the pitch..... but then again........
Heart says 1-1, head says 1-4.2 -
Who knows with this lot but I do have a good feeling and think we will win 2-1 if we dont rotate too many players again. Give the lads that came on as subs at the weekend a start and hopefully start with a bit of ambition and intensity.
Change a few players for the ones rested at the weekend we lose. Although it wouldnt surprise me to see Kirk starting which might because good thing if he feels he has something to prove

Could really do with a clean sheet win.2

The best we've played this season was the 1st half vs Gillingham, so I'd be tempted to go with something fairly similar, but bringing in Clare for one of the midfielders, and Famewo for Pearce, but who knows what we'll end up with.
I find it odd that playing CBT for any number of minutes on Saturday would be considered a terrible risk by the medical staff, but it would be fine to start him 3 days later1 -
