Excatly, the cost of a pint is a massive factor. A lot of the youth are buying a cheap bottle of cider from a supermarket, which is half the price of one pint nowadays. Amd not just the youth, you can get much better value in a supermarket. |

But it's also energy costs, business costs, rents forcing pubs to charge more for alcohol than in supermarkets etc, so people don't go, it's too expensive. Having a drink in an English pub has always been a very English / British thing to do. England for many reasons isn't England any more and it's getting worse.
20 years ago, I went to Newcastle return for an advanced open return train ticket for £20. It's now about £200. For a family.of 4 that os £800. Totally unaffordable. Everything is far too expensive. [Post edited 23 Sep 10:34]

Another pub closing down in Eastleigh. We pay some of the highest taxes in the world on alcohol, and some of the highest taxes in general. Yet the pubs are all closing. Businesses just can't afford to continue anymore. So depressing. Perhaps Burnham is protecting the pubs in the north?

Reply | Tonda to be backed by Saints
at 18:54 21 Sep 2026
But if he gets banned for 6 months or a year, all Tonda will do is get another job in Germany.or somewhere else in the world, whilst we lose a really good manager. The FA can't ban him in other countries as far as I am aware.
So Tonda won't actually have any punishment in that case? Meanwhile, Saints have had minus 4, thrown out of play offs and losing our manager. |

The thing is though, if it was Tonda's fault then he should get punished and not the club. Why should the club get a punishment as well as Tonda? The club have alreadt been pinished severely, so not sure why both the club and Tonda ger punished. |

Depends on the context I suppose. Didn't go yesterday, but driving through Birmingham for.our game was very depressing. It was dirty, impoverished, beggars, a few pigs hanging from shop fronts, boarded up buildings, graffiti. It did indeed look like a 3rd world country. That'd just the truth isn't it? But context is everything. |

Just goes to show how non-serious this spying is. They wouldn't make jokes about anything that was really serious. [Post edited 17 Sep 23:18]

Such a shame. Energy costs and taxes closing all our pubs. Didn't the PM say he was going to protect pubs? [Post edited 17 Sep 22:10]

And why did she let him in? The ticket conditions clearly state home fans only. I would have kicked up a big fuss and had him thrown out. Once or twice I have videoed interactions like this. I showed the steward that if they didn't throw them out, I would send the video evidence to the club and the newspapers, to show stewards allowing away fans in and not doing their job properly. That worked. They were thrown out. [Post edited 17 Sep 13:30]

Most fans of other clubs, who sit in the home end, mostly show respect as they are proper fans. As proper fans who support their local club, they understand and behave as they should. The tourists, the glory hunters who don't go to many games, arn't really supporters, turn up and don't understand the passion or how you should behave. They are just arrogant gimps who think they are clever supporting a top club, people who live locally who use their local post code to see "their top club" in one game. I can't stand these "top clubs" with all their arrogant fans. [Post edited 17 Sep 13:21]

Exactly right. Whenever these top clubs play in Europe, I generally want them to lose precisely because of their pathetic, glory hunting fans that show the total disrepect as seen in the clip. I have never seen so many Arsenal shirts about, just beacuse they are currently a great side. I see very very few Man U shirts. Just wait until Arsenal arn't as good, and these idiots go and buy the shirt of the next team that is at the top. Are these tw@ts on some kind of look at me arn't I special, I support the champions parade? As you say well done Paris. [Post edited 17 Sep 12:27]

I was sat in the Kingsland north when we played Arsenal in the PL. One Arsenal fan jumped up and cheered like crazy when they scored. We soon got him out and down those stairs, before the dozy stewards eventually woke up and chucked him out, once we had got him all the way down to the exit. To.our fans credit, there were loads of Saints fans joining in with "getting him out". Utter udiots. |

Just because they won the league, people everywhere supporting Arsenal and getting in the home end. Seem to remember Arsenal fans in with Everton fans, and now turning up in home sections and being totally disrespectful.
Those fans likely arn't from London. Probably local people gettong cheap cheap cup tickets. Why don't they support their local club? Ipswich are in the PL. What tw@ts winding up the very people they likely live in amongst. Just f@ck off to your super league and then let"s see how many of these glory hunting idiots travel to America and Dubai.

Reply | Bristol City Game Ticket Sales
at 14:26 13 Sep 2026
No you needed to have been to one game in the last 5 years, no membership needed to shift those £55 tickets. As soon as Saints removed the need to be a member and need to have been to a game this season, the tickets started to shift. Same restrictions for when we played Liverpool and Arsenal and unfortunately tourists then get in. I don't think any Pompey would get in or would want to be in with us, but there might some people in the £55 seats who very rarely go, and fancied watching a big game, as those £55 tickets in particular didn't get sold until the very final few days when they loosened the restrictions.
The 30 is plenty campaign came about in the PL because yes games sold out at 50 or 60 quid a ticket, but the most loyal fans or local fans couldn't afford to go. Selling games out doesn't mean the pricing is right, only from a business sense. You want your most loyal and passionate fans at games, not tourists who will buy the most expensive tickets.
