What if a vaccine certificate is requested.......anti-vaxers keep out? Unfortunatly highly probable! I'm far from 'anti vax' - taken my standard vaccines, as have my kids, but I wont be taking this vaccine if/when offered. My choice should be respected but I very much doubt that. Governement will divide and concquer once more and no doubt say until everyone has had it you won't fully get all your freedoms back. It'll be made mandatory at the right time, watch this space..

£45 is fustrating to say the least. It's not like it's one shirt they're releasing it's 6. If you love all of them, that'll cost you £270! A bit short sighted becuase if they took a hit on the price they would undoubtedly sell more..even at £30 I reckon people would buy a couple. They look great but I can't justify £45

Latest on Coronavirus is positive re. footy games. From BBC website this morning..
Dr Harries said cancelling big outdoor events like football matches would not necessarily be a decision supported by science. "The virus will not survive very long outside," she said. "Many outdoor events, particularly, are relatively safe."
Any news on the Wigan releasing more tickets?? I knew we were on close to 3k a few days ago.

Loved at Fleetwood. I live around the corner and fans tell me he is playing really well. Fleetwood are also on a crazy run of form, currently in the playoffs and a few points off top!

Got ours yesterday afternoon, 5 coming down from Blackpool. Always a good away day Wigan; decent pubs and easy to get to. Hopefully a big turn out, may be a huge game for us!

Any streams tonight? Or any audio streams aside from the £4.50 thingy through the official site?
I live in Blackpool so cant tune into Radio Stoke to get the commentary, on Signal perhaps ??
Thanks in advance .

Personally I love the music prior to the players coming out of the tunnel. In fact can someone tell me who it is and the name of the music as I would love it on my phone Darude-Sandstorm. Second half walkout is usually Fat Boy Slim - Right Here, Right Now

Anyone know how many we have sold; I don’t even know season tickets sales this year, have they announced it?

Depends doesn’t it, we have already lost Shawcross before a balls been kicked, if we loose say Powell and Etebo to long term injuries then a top ten finish might be seen as a good season.
Touch wood everyone says fit and we can push for playoffs

Last season has lessened expectations a little which probably isn’t a bad thing. I can see us challenging for the playoffs and at the very least playing a much more exciting, attacking brand of football.
Think Powell will be key this season, and Gayle if we can swing it ! UTP

But surely signing Gayle would hinder Campbell's development? Do we really need him it's a slap in the face of the youth on the books. I get that, and it’s a risk, but wouldn’t say in anyway it’s a slap in the face of youth...we’re gonna see so many academy players come through this season. A lot hoping Afobe will be offloaded but seems unlikely this late on. Presuming Bera and Diouf leave, is 5 Strikers on the books too many? Could any of them double up as no.10?

We don't have our own TV Channel though. Leicester were Prem Champions and we have to accept that whilst not one of the big clubs they have over achieved and moved up in the football world. Reading v Chelsea on Chelsea TV today no different. Is it an actual TV channel? I thought it was a website that they set up to stream games? Yea not sure it’s a TV channel in the same way MUTV or Chelsea TV is. Just an online service done to much better, more professional standard

I genuinely think signing Gayle will be the difference... I think, as it stands we have a top 8 team but Gayle would, for me, guarantee playoffs...even in a team that doesn’t create much for him , he will score 10-15, if we get our shit together he could be a 20-25 man ...fingers crossed

The one thing I will say. These do feel like the kind of signings we should have been making last summer. The best of the champ on frees on sensible wages. Not spunking money on old premier failures on massive long contracts. Rowett really was clueless None of the potential signings are anywhere remotely being the 'best of the championship'. One is actually a div one player the other two come from teams who finished 18th and 21st!! Hardly the best. Assume your referring to Adam Davies as the ‘division one player’? Pretty sure Barnsley have just been promoted so he’s a Championship player and comes up with the golden glove award from that league. In regards to Gregory I haven’t seen one bad word about him from all the Millwall lot on Twitter, they seem devastated. Powell is, when fit, one of the better players in this league. Problem is he is injured frequently and never getting a run of games. Regardless, these 3 are certainly no more of a gamble as Clucas, McClean, Williams, Martina etc... and the ones we were confident about (Afobe and Ince) were dogshite as well. So when you say ‘hardley the best’ we tried buying the best last summer, how did that work out? Let’s buy the right players perhaps?

Sheff Utd played preston a few weeks ago and loads of their fans stayed in blackpool for the weekend, where I live.
Loads of trouble on the front that Saturday morning.

Fuckin ell, I daren’t say it but I thought it was okay... a mean, we’re playing the best team in the league who will likely be crowned champions today. It’s hardly comparable to the Rotherham performance, Verlinden looks decent again. Also more shots on target than them, they just have the cutting edge (as expected). Still in this ! Steady on there mate, no room for a sense of proportion on this board! Haha, feel like my view has been vindicated now, great start to 2nd half.

Too much negativity about at the moment and I don’t think it’s justified - and I can moan with the best of em... but thought we played well that half, still in the game against the champions, liked the look of Verlinden.

Stoke fans will be the biggest hinderance in trying to get promotion. Rowett, Jones, The list will go on until people have patience Sorry but, in my personal opinion, this is absolute b*llocks. Blaming supporters for getting uptight after at least two years of on pitch drivel is ridiculous and has nothing to with patience. Exactly ! Fans criticising other fans is doing my head in! We all pay our money, we all have an opinion, we all want the team to do well. I didn’t boo, but I 100% accept and understand why some did. The players should be doing better. They are professionals, and paid crazy money - do your job!

First and foremost Ashley Williams will return to Everton. Then we have Charlie Adam and Darren Fletcher who are out of contract. Hopefully there will be grounds to sack Berahino too.
Clucas, Ince and McClean are good championship players that just do not fit into the way Jones wants to play...i’m not saying we will be able to get the same money back for them as we paid but surely we can sell them - I reckon Forrest will take McClean. Burnley might go back in for Clucas ??
If Allen/Etebo/Butland leave, at least we can reinvest that money back into the squad.
As somebody said above, it’s not going to be done this summer but we can certainly make a start - problem is, I don’t trust the board to make the right signings even if we do ship out 5/6 players.

It can still be a working mans ballet, however, what the working man finds acceptable today when compared with 12 years ago is very different. By comparison my match day experience yesterday: Tickets purchased on an App, very simple, easy to use , details saved took less than a minute to buy , 1-0 Lincoln. Arrival and parking, club organised car parking, friendly stewards directing you to the fanzone, just about a draw. Pre match, fanzone outside the ground, numerous bars and local eateries, outside seating screening football, meet the players for all reserves, injured players etc etc, football related entertainment for the kids and big kids 2-0 Lincoln. Entry to stadium, scanned my phone , by a steward , no issues 3-0 All food outlets are run by local business, all accept card/ phone payment, plastic bottle only bar, half time, ale is easily purchased, still queues for food. 4-0 Stadium, tired but full and vibrant, call it a draw Football, average yesterday, but the fans stayed with them, helped by promotion! 5-0 Exit, still carnage around the ground, however, the plan is at least reasonably well controlled and due to its location, there is numerous escape routes, all the formal bars are opened for fans , so you can choose to stay and have a pint and wait for the traffic to disperse! 6-0 Let’s not forget the context, this club was non league 2 years a ago. 3 years ago a new owner took over a disfunctional club averaging 1500 fans, he brought in a new board, CEO and the Cowleys, 2 promotions, play offs and their first Wembley win, 9000 sell out crowds , a club unified, we hav3 a long way to go to bring this club back, but it can be done "Your comments have been noted. We will monitor the situation". 100% this ! Reading the supporters council minutes is so depressing. Good points raised by the council, no actions taken by the club .

Nothing shows the disconnect more between players and supporters than Jacks weekly rallying call.
If he HAS to speak to the media like some contractual obligation, which I doubt, he should just say ‘ we’re working hard on the training to implement a new style, we want to finish as high up as possible’ etc etc
We are 13 points off 6th place Bristol who have 2 games in hand 😂😂
If we won EVERY game between now and the end of the season we would finish on 79 points.... last season you needed 75 to sneak in to 6th, the year before it was 80 !!

Great contribution 👍 Cheers I hope he does well but if he wasn't from Stoke he wouldn't get half the praise he does. Truthfully I don't think he'll be competent enough for a Jones wingback but I'd be ecstatic if he proved me wrong. Fair point above about Tom Ince offering him absolutely fuck all support. I had Ipswich’s commentary on my live stream through IPTV. They were well impressed with him, mentioned him a few times especially when he didn’t have a pass on and run forward into space 👍
