Welcome new boys

[Bobbin']

I’m glad the Sarr/Phillips balls up didn’t cost you as that’s the sort of thing that haunts you for the rest of your life.

Millwall for you next season anyway, you said you’ve a few mates who support them in the past haven’t you?

You’re telling me, pair of idiots.

Yeah mate. Quite a few Millwall supporting mates/work colleagues. All excited to get their usual 4 points off us ffs

Have I just seen someone call Luton a "sleeping giant"?

Fair enough you've bounced back but even if we lived in the land of oompah lumpahs you'd never be giants.....

Always amazes me how Craven Cottage holds nearly 26K.

Looks like it should hold about half that.

What a load of crap....
Allowing for segregation,how many play to full houses when at home?
In our new ground we will ...
Then the capacity will be raised again we will...

Totally agree Cha, the 2 side stands are pretty small but the two ends are a fair size.
They're knocking down the riverside stand by all accounts which will take them to over 30K.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

You've not averaged over 10k since 1991 though to be fair.

Not sure it's needed to be honest really, barely sold out in the PL really.

I'm not knocking you Oakroader, just stating a fact. With Brentford about to move, you'll be the smallest stadium by a long way next season. I totally get that you're moving but Brentford are nearly built whereas, with all respect, yours hasn't started yet.
Even with segregation taken into account, you're still a fair way behind capacity wise, for now anyway.

"What a load of crap"

Eh?

I'm surprised at that Southey, pretty poor for a London club TBH.

True,but...You can only get a pint into a pint pot though....

 

[oakroader]

"What a load of crap"

Eh?

Are Queen's Park a giant amongst Scottish clubs because of their capacity?

 

[SoutheySWFC]

True,but...You can only get a pint into a pint pot though....

Yep, you've had an uplift in crowds like a few with your resurgence, it will be interesting to see if it holds up should you have a poor season or two, that said the crowds will be there when PC is finally built.

 

[PrestonCha]

Not got a clue what you're going on about you mad bastard.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Scottish club Queens Park play at Hampden.

What a mug this geezer is

 

[oakroader]

Scottish club Queens Park play at Hampden.

Exactly my point

He's alluding to the fact Queen's Park's home stadium is second only to Celtic's in terms of capacity.

 

[Ciderup]

Scottish club Queens Park play at Hampden.

They're playing pub teams though with similar finances. That's not the case here.
There's naff all Luton can do about it regardless but it's a bit of a disadvantage, certainly financially anyway.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Exactly my point

But a completely different context, the stadium keeps the club alive BTW.

 

[PrestonCha]

Exactly my point

Ciderup simply pointed out that you had the smallest capacity in the division, and you flew into a spice induced rage calling his post "a load of crap"

 

[oakroader]

But a completely different context, the stadium keeps the club alive BTW.

Stating club capacity as a guide to a teams place in a league is bollocks...
It's the percentage of Home supporters in their ends that is more significant...

Don't worry Cha, I've been called a lot worse.

Where did I say that Oakroader? I just said you had the smallest ground.
You're reading things that aren't there WTGR fella.
Going by your formula, 9,500 in a 10,000 capacity stadium, is better than 30,000 in a 39,000 capacity stadium. I can't see that at all.

Nobody has stated the capacity of Kennilworth Rd as being a guide to your potential league standing.

It's all in your head. You've been smoking too much dried up dog shit.

Ciderup was not the focus of the comment...he's a decent poster..

Did you see their ticket prices? Not surprising at all.

When are the Bees supposed to be moving out of interest?

Half way 20/21 so we've got one, potentially two more times in that great away end.
