I'm a fair weather supporter these days and pick my matches. So it's nice to be going to game looking forward to it rather than dreading it. The team should be the one that won on Saturday. It's not a practise match and it's the start of the season. AN started what he thought was his strongest side on Saturday so stick to it. There's an international break soon so players will not be overworked

Interesting term, technospazzer.
IMO you need a laptop/PC to order online. I assume most folk have mobiles and ordering/ selecting a seat on mobile is pretty horrendous. On a computer it is 5 minutes.
Love the mobile tickets as it reduces the collection/ post fee nonsense.

really don’t get why people go to the ticket office and queue. Just buy them online I’m sure the ticket office staff who need employment won’t agree And anyone who doesn't want to become a prisoner to a digital currency

I'm for a good league cup run but im in the minority, managers and clubs even champ clubs see it as a distraction.

Because we have drawn a championship team, it's sort of , a chance for foreign players like chiquino, Ryan and Wesley to gain some championship experience for ' free ' ( impossible to drop points ) .
Likewise, if available? For youngsters like macari, Griffith, sidibe ,tezgel and lowe .
I don't know who is fit and who isn't but we definitely need to see if Wesley and Ryan can click together and they both need championship minutes, so hopefully that will happen.

Just spoken to my wba mate, he’s not going tonight, he’s pissed off..!!! He expects 5 changes, including a different keeper…!!!! Saturday performance was a disgrace, CB looked like they had never played footie before, midfield non existent etc etc He went on and on, it was great to hear… The fans are giving the manager 6 games to turn it around..
Oh well, it’s a shame 😂 😂 😂
Gooooaaarrrrnnnn Stoke

Mysterious.... 59 min phone wait, 40 min queue at ticket office yet some say low crowd expected? Hmmm.. look at the seats available online, low crowds expected across the board tonight. Huddersfield have sold 2k for their home match vs Middlesbrough tonight I wasn't really speculating about the size of the crowd, rather commenting on the the contradiction between queues and phone waiting time verses low attendance speculation. Either the crowd will be bigger than expected or the ticket office is running inefficiently.

On Stoke's official site it says tickets are available online until kick off and available via phone until 6.45pm.
Just went online to order two tickets and it says sales for this match are no longer available.
Duly phoned the ticket office and it's closed!

Don't care who wins tonight. I'm hoping Stoke get a good run in the league and hopefully get promotion. Cup matches are secondary.

Ticket Office is and has frankly been shite since Josh left. Nothing used to be too much trouble back then but the dealings I've had recently it seems every request I've made seems to be met with an attitude that makes me feel like I'm putting them out. This sounds similar to the misinformation I got before the Notts County friendly. Went to buy a ticket the day before but couldn't and they couldn't tell me if there would be any on sale on the day. A 5 minute call with the Notts County ticket office and it was all sorted. Back to tonight, talk about pouring cold water on Saturday.

It's Lewis who's No. 8 though? Must be a red herring! Perhaps that is just his place in the dressing room? With there being no boots you'd think it's just the kit man laying it all out possibly.

These sort of games should be a tenner for adults and a fiver for anyone under 21. Charge £2 a beer and that would sweeten the deal. Can't be closing two stands. How I yearn for the days of £5 at the gate for Vic version of the Boothen End (1992) Last time I went the Vic was 80p at turnstile Boothen End, 40p for under 16s

Apparently Travers sent Wesley on with a through ball. Got a Ederson-type keeper now by the sounds of things!
