    I can’t see us getting anything at Burnley.
    Our home games are winnable - and Leeds might already be on the beach by the time we play them, so who knows…….
    It depends which City side turns up; the one that played Boro and Norwich, or the side that played Swansea and Pompey (at their place).
    It’s so difficult to predict.

    At this point in the season there are lots of strange results due to pressure etc, it’s impossible to call. Let’s just enjoy the fact we’re in the mix at present, who knows

    I agree but tbf, they tried with Armstrong and Fally but it hasn't worked out, as yet.
    Whereas over the last couple of seasons we've had great signings like Bird, McNally, McGuane and best of all Knight.
    I think we'll miss out on the Playoffs which will put City under huge pressure to keep hold of Knight......he's been a revelation as leader and consistent 7/8 out of 10 in every game.
    Imo he's far in front of Brownhill at this stage of his career.

    After some help fellas. My mate (baggies fan) is getting us tickets for the game in April and wants to know which is the best option. I have never done either, so no clue. Any recommendations, please?

    I have been fortunate to be invited to The Bridge earlier this season which is the updated Lansdown restaurant. I thought it was better than before. Food was quite good considering how many they are catering for. Great seats just in front of the Directors box. Cant offer opinion on the shared box as not experienced it. All very nice as a treat but in my opinion it cannot beat having a couple of pints in a nearby pub and being in the stands with your mates

    I’ve never experienced any of the hospitality packages at AG.

    15 POINTS+ FROM 24! that is a high ask my formulation applied to last 8 gives us 10.5 to 12 so ending on 69 points do it 3 times.......... so ending on 69 points we start the 8 with 0 pts or 1 pt = 69pts ........

    @Supcon72
    Company I work for had a box.
    Really good experience in there, you have a dinning table with table service food and drinks. Great seats without people walking past you or standing in front of you.
    Down side, when we were entertaining you don’t get full on football fans, or fans of other clubs. So you lose out on match day atmosphere as some are there just for chatting and free drinks.
    We took another Season Ticket holders company there and his words to me was “great food, drink, seats and view. But miss my ST seat for the feeling of being at a game”.
    Done the hospitality suite, you are surrounded by more city fans, and IMO the better of the two. For a better atmosphere of a football game.

    True, but I’d still rather be in the Championship today. The financial gap is so huge, even between L1 to the Championship

    No argument from me there, but the atmosphere, the togetherness,the successfulness,confidence and harmony, in fact the whole season we were all joined by the hip with joy and that is no exageration, compare that with the years that followed, I loved the memory of that season and will treasure it always.

    It was a great season there is no doubt about that.
    Very enjoyable.
    I’m much happier where we are now though; in the mix for a playoff place and a chance to bring Prem football to the Gate - even if only for one season!
