    Think that’s the case at the moment, but I believe that in Europe they are able to bet 1.25/1.5 people per ‘seat’

    would expect that PL teams would look to this as a way to increase capacity/profits at some point.

    They’d have to go 1:1 at Newcastle after the fat ****s couldn’t fit in the away end at Hillsborough.

    I can never give up my spot now as I wouldn’t get it back but it’s good especially at a ground like Loftus Road where only midgets can sit vaguely comfortably. Doesn’t feel right sitting on the rare occasions I pop upstairs to have a chat with my dad during a particularly dull game.

    From a safety POV it’s far superior to standing in seated areas rather than some kids faking ‘limbs’ for Tiktok

    Domestic shizzle today. Took the old washing machine to the tip, went and got the new (second hand) one and just finished plumbing that it.

    New washer plays a little tune to you when's it's finished its cycle lol. Never had an appliance that sings to you before.

    Just ordered up a load of new fire bricks, I'll measure up tomorrow and cut them to size and then reline the wood burner ready for the Autumn and cozy nights in with the fire lit.

    Just back from footie. Team mate broke his shin leg with his bone sticking out having pierced the skin. Feel really bad for the guy I'm feelin a bit traumatized let alone him.

    Ambulance obviously called and theres even the advanced paramedic was called.

    Wasnt even a bad challenge, just a standard 50/50. Might have to retire

    That would have been me done if I witnessed anything like that. Speedy recovery for the lad. Nasty injury and a big infection risk.

    We have a Samsung one, I turn the tune off and she turns it back on in the settings.

    says it’s good to let her know it’s done.

    Playing Sunday league. Right back went into a challenge, big crack. He stood up, winger stood up, neither knew what the crack was.

    Right back took a step, leg collapsed, bone through the skin. 3 inches, calf was touching his ankle.

    6 weeks later back playing football.

    I will say i was 16 and threw up. He was late 30s and said oh ****. Made of harder stuff them boys
