I thought the credit could only be used on Ticketmaster's website to buy tickets not the BRFC Direct website? Best ask the club. Regardless, the refund money to a Season Ticket Holder for the resale of a ticket is a 'credit' and therefore the refund money essentially stays within the club; you can't spend it elsewhere. A Season Ticket Holder is highly unlikely to use the credit towards purchasing a match ticket for themselves for a future League match as they already have a ticket for League matches. Therefore the STH might use the credit towards purchasing a full-price ticket for friends or family. If I had sold my Pompey season ticket seat earlier I could have used the £20 to offset some of the cost of the four Blackpool away tickets I bought, because ticket transactions are handled through ticketmaster you can use it for home cup games that are not included in your season ticket as well as for tickets for away matches or those games held at a neutral venue. Imagine if your playoff final ticket was covered by the credits you received for selling two tickets to games over the festive period you could not have gone to anyway, isn’t that a win-win? I should also mention that when I purchased this season’s ticket I was offered the option to pay for part of that ticket using my existing credit balance, so the credit isn’t as redundant as it sounds. As it happens I didn’t use my credit on my season ticket because I knew it would cover the cost of the Charlton away ticket, last minute winner…credit well used!

Can't make the Pompey game and wanted to sell my ticket through the clubs Ticket Exchange. I have used it before (last season) but am getting an error on the page - has anyone else used it this season? Thanks It worked for me. Put my Pompey season ticket seat on on Friday and I got a notification today that someone had bought it. As I mentioned on the Pompey thread it’s the first time my seat has sold in three attempts.

I’ve listed my East Stand seat season ticket on ticket exchange three times over the last two years but this match is the first time someone has actually bought it!

Said it before say it again stinks of Tisdale MK 2 All this talk of a big overhaul in January . There are only scraps to be had in the Jan window so lower your expectations and expect a slide down the table. Am I the only one not inspired by Taylor at all ? After one game you draw that conclusion? That's laughable I half expected a “has he gone yet?” post!

All I know is players were given time off on international break weekends, given the amount of training ground injuries we seemed to pick up, I'm not sure that was a bad thing? Pretty certain we weren't saying players were unfit when we beat Scunthorpe 7-1 in the last game of the season. Mighty generous giving that Scunny side the 1😂 Especially as it would have stopped us getting automatic promotion!

I would love to know Neil Harris' reasons for turning the job down. Probably read some of the tripe on this thread!

Have had the seat next to Kev in the East Stand ever since the gas moved back to Bristol…if you hear a “Rubbish Ref” emanating from block B it’s either him or seanclevedongas! He’s also famous for shouting that he hoped the ref pulled a hamstring…which the official promptly did! I’m sure cancer will be getting just as hard a time as those officials! All the best mate..

That sounds like a bit of a Charade! I have a Suspicion he was Notorious for it. Used to like him till I realised one of his early films was called Topper!! Bit Indiscreet that. incidentally should we consider nicknaming our current no.4 Cary or Archibald?

Can we name the new stand on completion, The Almost Cary Grant Stand? I'm sure he was almost a GasHead! Then, in a weird twist of fate, he would go North by Northwest to South by Southwest. That sounds like a bit of a Charade!

I was there too and remember the scrappy away goal that got us to Wembley. The most unsavoury memory of the day was the first ten minutes of the second half. The away terrace at that time was totally inadequate for a full attendance seriously boozed up. I was sober as I’d driven but a lot of over refreshed gasheads sought the toilets at the interval and realised there were so few that they’d still be queuing a significant period into the second half…so they took the decision to relieve themselves against the back wall. I presume they didn’t notice that the terrace sloped forward so that excess liquid flowed towards the front of the terrace and thus their excess bladder product seeped below their fellow gasheads feet. Most of it probably still had an alcohol by volume level that was higher than Watney’s but I fear it was still strong enough to ruin several pairs of footwear that night!

Unlike Joey he would unite the fanbase…everyone would hate him and his football after a month of it! The only plus side would be his laughable post match interviews.

His football isn't pleasing on the eye but if you look at his record at Wycombe with probably the budget he had to work then he did an amazing job there and ok they did come back down from the championship but the fact they gave it a good go and it went to the final day was an amazing effort. Only thing is that is he one of these managers that will only ever be known for his record at Wycombe while all the other clubs he didn't have any success?? Will find out soon I guess. Also could he work with the current squad?? Deffo not in my top 5 but at the same time I would rather him than some of the other names on the list. whatever happens I want a manager that will want to keep all our players that's for sure They may want to keep our players but will the players want to stay with the new manager? There’s a lot who have contracts ending this season. The Barton factor certainly attracted several of them. Will also be interesting to see what the parent clubs of our loan players think of the change of circumstances …I suspect most of the deals include the opportunity to review in January, one indication of what they might be thinking will be if they allow us to field them in the FA Cup, Woods will be serving the last game of his suspension anyway but if Chelsea, Brentford or Villa do consider there is potential to recall and reloan they may feel a non cup tied asset will be easier to relocate.

They are 16th this season and are closer to the bottom than the play offs. I know they had a good cup run in the past, but is he that good?? New managers are like a box of chocolates, you just don’t know what you are going to get. And like our team they tend to melt when the heat is on.

Wonder how far along Couttsy is with his coaching badges/licenses? I know he left for Scotland to be near his family but maybe a crack at managing in the EFL might appeal. He has the advantage of knowing all the staff and the “project” without the baggage that comes with Joey (or any of the ghostly failed managers waiting in the wings).

Odds on him being back in Goal saturday? Not saying I would, but (agreement with FGR allowing) i can see him at least back on the bench Also depends whether Joey’s coaches shared his opinion of Belly or not.

The amount of time Wael spent around Chelsea he’d have been likely to have spoken to FL when he was a player and they may have made an impression on each other. Potter is more left field but if you don’t ask you don’t get….and you end up with Tisdale or Garner instead. Wael doesn't have a controlling interest though. Hopefully the new owners have ambitions and spending power. If they want to "go for it" and have the money, it could be someone like Eustace or even the clown, Lennon. If they want to consolidate, it'll be some yawnfest like Cotterill or Robinson. Dr. F, the first post on this was a response to Big Jock saying “if Wael was still the sole hand” then JT might’ve been a possible candidate and then threw in a couple of ex Chelsea bosses to make someone spit their tea out. I spun it out for a bit but genuinely like you I hope they have ambitions and vision to surprise us. Not sure Eustace is actually deserving of being considered a better prospect than Cotterill or Robinson, he’s in the same bracket as GC was for us - surprisingly over achieving whilst serving up poor fare to the fans.

Unless he’s negotiated a severance deal from Chelsea he’ll still be picking up the £100k plus per week wages during his contract. Would you give up that to take over at a low end league one team with one of the EFL’s worst stadiums? If he wanted to work again he’d have numerous clubs in top divisions willing to take him. Absolutely bonkers to think that he’d even answer the phone to us! Ok I admit it …I just wanted to a) divert attention from that depressing list of also ran, poor football-peddling managers that are apparently at our level and b) get the red side absolutely crapping themselves with laughter that we really thought we could get managers of that calibre!!
