Ted shed

This isn't fair ! When are us Easties going to get some corporate tents ?

I'd also know why the f--- we named the new plaza after Josh King? I know he did very well for us but the way it ended was very sour. Surely there were more deserving candidates?

The Fraserplatz?

If they want people to drink more before matches they need to improve the public transport offering.

I don't think they're aiming for people who use buses... with this initiative anyway.

So, is this a come and join us kinda place? Or, another exclusive kinda place?

I feel it could well be a "I told you all it wouldn't work" kind of place

The Fraserplatz?

Tradition would demand the Cummings Shed, but, if I had the choice, I'd have named it after a true Dean Court legend: The Broken Tap.

Truth x.

A person spending 139 or whatever it is, won't be using a bus for public transport.

Why? What other options do we have locally for public transport?

Taxi or would come in someone else's car.

You can put lipstick on a pig.

Any news on a buy back from SD or consultation on a new stadium .. or some more seats for the common people, anywhere ?

Given all the moans and criticisms may I suggest the ‘Nagshed’ as the fans name for this new ‘facility’. That is of course a tentative suggestion I’m canvassing on. Personally I’m totally meh about the whole thing and definitely won’t use it. I’ll stick to my usual teapee routine in the East Stand concourse. Each to their own though.

 

[redharry]

Mmmmm, £139 and as much as you can drink or a couple of pints up the Shed. No brainer.

Big up the Firkin shed...it's the place to be pre match...apparently.

Unfortunately with the effin stupid k.o. time for the next home game I will have to turn up sober

Someone else's car does not count as public transport.

I may be wrong but I don't think this is intended for people who already go. Will people who pay £139 be expected to satisfy the same points criteria? It seems unlikely. If not it's essentially a way of taking money off away fans.

The offer as quoted above reads as though you have to buy the match ticket online, so that seems like the usual points scheme applies. This would be an add-on.

A seat in a meccano stand and a spot under a fancy tent. Bargain!

The big top.

I can't see it. There's a few thousand people who will have enough points. If you're right then they need to find enough people from that group willing to stump up £139. I suppose existing season ticket holders can apply but I doubt there will be many takers there either.

It's my guess that once regular seats sell out the points on these rip off seats will drop until they sell out. I reckon that will be on very low points so any away fan who knows someone who bought a ticket to one of those friendlies will be in luck if they are prepared to pay through the nose.
