The ballot...

Protests on Saturday? Or still best not to upset him in case he stops the long drawn out task of changing our Facebook name

There's a planned protest at 19.04 minutes, with people holding up pictures of signs with kids, seniors and disabled on them, though I've knocked up an alternative...

Scrapped, though it won't matter, as too many adults will vote to maintain their low prices and Ehab will get the outcome he wants.

The campaign now should be to get the original ballot result honoured.

Wouldn't that be a campaign to push a scheme that few think is any good?

It's far from ideal, but we're in a situation where the goalposts have been moved to engineer a situation where the concession vote will fail completely, so it's the lesser of all evils.

I reckon a campaign to get things right is better than one trying to redesign the pigs ear.

Ideally, obviously, but the only realistic chance we have of getting any form of concessions back is by winning the ballot we've already won, rather than the rigged one just released (a completely new one simply isn't going to happen).

Yet Norwich sell out with a smaller population. Must be well off or keen on their football. Their concessions aren't that fantastic either.
Wednesday cheapest is £455 on the Kop, but their best stand tickets are slightly more than ours. Their pay on the day prices are high, which is why their crowds don't vary much.

The devil is in the detail. Our headline lowest price is good for a very limited group in specific areas. For most it is expensive.

I'm surprised you brought Norwich into the argument.

Make sure you vote everyone!

I thought TOM had said 21,000 had voted ? can't be arsed to search for exact number.

He has a habit of throwing out ground bait and then doing one when the fish start biting.

"We will be empowering stewards to do regular on the spot checks on the stadium grounds including: before entry, at the gates, in the stadium, whilst you are seated, and as you are leaving- in short, anywhere at any time in the stadium. You will need to be able to prove who you are, and if you can’t the membership card will be confiscated.

1. If you are found to be abusing the revised rules i.e. using someone else’s card or using a card that is not the correct age group for you, the Club will confiscate your card on the spot and you will be ejected from the stadium".

Only just started reading this thread and I am angry. The way this is worded is totally over the top and dictatorial. If I purchase a seat for the season and for some reason I cannot get to a game why the hell shouldn't a family member/friend of my choice go in my place (not charging money for this). As usual all he is doing is setting he fans against each other again. Have not looked at the pricing yet but from reading Twitter today I gather in East Stand it will be more or less our old price which is a lot higher than at the moment, not a little higher - a lot.

Of course the proposed ID system also discriminates between corporates and non-corporates.

Why should corporate entities be allowed to freely distribute passes without ID (which will continue) whilst a member won't be able to lend a pass to family or friends?

I think it was 24K plus (KC capacity ...) you need to turn on the 'sarcasm detector' on your internet browser ...

Ha, I didn't realise he did sarcasm

Unless ehab puts a product on the pitch worth watching all this pricing **** becomes irrelevant

Time to stop attending meetings with the Allams now , treating them as reasonable people hasn't worked

That is an excellent summary

How many seats does the stadium hold?

And by the way you have a habit of posting ****e.

Agreed. I hate to think of the attendees, Geoff and Co being laughed at by that pair of ****s.

I know they're doing all they can and I thank and respect them for it but they're pissing in the wind.
