I haven’t posted here for ages, but I want people to share my wife’s GoFundMe if possible. She has been wonderful in the most important roles in life – as a mother, grandmother and a teacher. Please donate if you can. Thanks gofund.me/5e34e0fa3

The terraces behind both goals do it for me. Proper atmosphere.
Mad at the Monumental - no tickets, instead facial recognition and biometric data - cannot see that flying in England

Carrick off, presumably for a final time, to big applause. Disappears up the tunnel and it then turns to loud boos for the players. Very, very powerful. Point made.

Premier League tickets are so hard to get hold of for die-hard fans, yet increasing number of empty seats these days. Same at Chelsea in east lower north and west middle tier yesterday v Spurs (crowd was 600 below capacity).
Not sure why there is a large block of empty seats near the halfway line and has been all game. Surely those passionate corporate fans were given umbrellas as part of their deal. Correct me if I’m wrong but that’s what happens when you give up prime seating to those who don’t fancy it on a rainy day…

Spurs Women's fans are complaining of disappointing attendances. Crowds have been lower than expected at many Chelsea and Arsenal women's games too this season.
Attendance yesterday for the NLD was 13,719. 6k less than 2023. Less than half of 2024 but that was a men’s international break. Double last year but we were at Brizzy Rd. We can’t only blame the weather and the Chelsea game. Why are our attendances so shit?

Arsenal have sold out their away allocation for the north London derby tomorrow at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, just under 4,000 tickets sold. It's Arsenal's largest away crowd in the WSL in two and a half years.
