The weight thing would be a problem with a lot of players if they're not playing! Can you imagine having to train all week knowing that you're not going to play at the weekend? You just wouldn't put the work in, No one would. Give him a couple of weeks of training knowing he's gonna play and he'll soon get fit!
The best thing, for me, is if we sign him when his contracts running out he'll be free. Free! This lad is a £15mil footballer
There is a couple of ways of anwering this. Firstly, all of our players seem a yard off the pace, they did last season too so compared to every other manager we have had, I don't think much of his training. When the story first came out about him being overweight fans were pulling him and taking pics. He was solid muscle. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter. Bruce will no doubt want to improve fitness anyhow because like I say, the whole toon squad looks unfit. A good bet for you is to bet on us conceding late in games. Secondly, Ben Arfa has been playing, albeit in the reserves and has been scoring and providing assists. Now, maybe you could help me. When the toon isn't playing and you are, where is the best place to sit? As I will be coming down to watch him play
As the name suggests I'm based in Sydney, Australia, but I did happen to get along for about 3 months of last season, and sat basically in the corner of the East and South stands, pretty decent view from there.
There isn't many bad views at all really it depends what you want? Singing?, No singing, Will you be bring your own drinks ect?
Thanks lads. Bring my own drinks? Are you allowed like? We aren't? Basically a bit of atmosphere and banter with a good view. Singing is pointless because I don't know the words and tbh I wont sing for another team. The toon is and always will be my first love. I'm not coming to support, just to watch Ben Arfa every now and again, if you know what I mean? Which end can you pay at the door. I'm not buying a season ticket ha ha
It's not often you can pay on the door as such, but you can usually get a ticket in the west, especially the upper west from our on-line ticket office. https://ticketing.hulltigers.com/fixture.aspx There's an area right behind the goal in the North stand that's available for non-passholders.
You'll be best off watching him in the Strawberry or if you smoke 100 a day the Azure Blue in Bensham
I take it then, its like at SJP, mostly season tickets? I'm not buying 2 (one for the toon and one for hull). It'll probably only be a half a dozen games or such like. You know, like when we play on a Sunday and you are on, on a saturday
IIRC flasks and such are fine in fact some on here take thee piss out of the flask and blanket brigade. Yeah I see your point but some like to be in the atmos and some don't at another teams ground which was why I asked. DMD advice sounds about right to me so I won't bother to retype it.
Generally you'll be fine to just buy a ticket for a game. Just watch out for the Cat A games as they're up to £50 I believe.
I take it they are pubs ha ha. Live is the only way to watch footy though it might been fun watching one in a pub with hull fans.
I think the numbers were around 15K passes for a 25K ground although that could be bollocks but I know it's not a sell out pass wise. You are more than welcome mate to join us whenever you want though
Thanks mate, I,ll give ya a shout when I get to come. I'll see what they are organising up here too coz there'll be a few who will want to see him play. I still cant believe Pardew has done this to us. We all thought he was flexing his ego then would come around because we aren't creating
