As for Stoke as a testimonial Looks like Crawley have sold 8 tickets … if your prediction is correct (22) it could be the biggest away support in 22/23 as a percentage of the total crowd … Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal U18s are due to be up in the next week or two. Burnley U18s are basing themselves at St Andrews. Hearts (and Hibs?) will probably field sides against each of them. West Ham trained with United at St Andrews apparently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegreatsd Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 I ordered tickets for the Rose game and Stoke game at the same time and chose the first class post option. These were ordered on the 1st of July. Still not received them in the post. I’m assuming I will need to go to the ticket office before the game or is there a way to change to a print at home option for todays game? Anyone else not received their tickets yet?

To all you 40 year olds and below. FOOTBALL DID NOT START WITH SKY TELEVISION IN 1992. Absolutely correct, football did not start with Sky, but even so, excluding the odd minor trophy or promotion, all Stoke City has won is the League Cup. I'm well over 40 and if you mention Stoke I think of Gordon Banks, Peter Shilton, Stanley Matthews and, of course, Ricardo Fuller! They may have had some great players but other than a great season in the mid 70s when they put in a reasonable challenge at the top of the league, as a team they have never been anything other than also-rans. Sorry if this offends, but if I am asked to describe Stoke City I would use one word; 'dull'. When Stoke visited Tynecastle in 1964 the great Stanley Matthews played. This was one of a series of friendlies Stoke played as an opportunity for people to see the last of Matthews before he retired (he was 49 at the time!). It would be great for Gary Locke if we could match the 10,000 crowd that turned out that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same problem with a ticket for the Rangers game which was posted first class on the Tuesday evening and which finally arrived three days after the game. I wouldn't have minded but I'd bought it about three weeks before the game and they waited until the Tuesday before sending it out. Probably easier for them admin wise but with the state the Royal Mail's in these days you'd think they'd have sussed not to rely on it.

Footballfirst Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 The U21s/B Team lost 6-1 to Man Utd this afternoon. Again it was a fair reflection of the game, although three of the goals came in the last 5 minutes. Pollock scored for Hearts with a composed finish after Gordon had sent him through on goal.

This will be my first chance to sit in the Main Stand since the legends in the stand wall was put in place, does anyone here know if there is public access to the wall? Thanks in advance. I doubt you will get down there. It is just across the hall from the dressing room. When I was back in Edinburgh in April/May this year I booked a lunch table in the Skyview restaurant for my wife and I. On the online booking request it asked if I had any special requests. So I said that I would like to see the wall and get a picture of my name from it. The lady who greeted us at the restaurant could not have been more accommodating. Even though she did not know exactly where the wall was she got a hold of the tour guide who told her where to take us. Even allowed us to tag along with a tour that was in progress. Got into the dressing room too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
