After Liverpool ticket price climb-down what are other changes fans want to see?

[tikay]

Leicester still charge per letter.

Well, I think you've just lost all the neutrals wanting Leicester to win the title.

Safe standing. Most away fans just stand all game anyway, and the home fans surrounding them follow suit. Just get a designated area.
Cheap(er) beer, but also the catering can vary from edible to turgid. Why can't KFC have little stands in the grounds and on the concourses?
Why can't the TV schedule be organised and published in line when train fares go on sale? So they have until 12 weeks before a game to fuck about with the schedule, and then if they alter a fixture from there on in then some form of compensation for those who booked up and have since been left out of pocket due to a TV change. Even just rail vouchers to put towards the next booking or something. There should definitely be something in place meaning fixtures can't be touched less than a month before kick off.

Unrealistic - the fixed equipment cost for a KFC is huge, & could not possibly be economically viable on Match Days only. Cracking grub though.

Cheaper/better beer? No no no. That can only end badly.

Kit changes every year? Daft to blame the Clubs for that. As long as folks buy them, they'll keep changing them.

Tannoy music after a goal? Are you kidding me? It's not pyjama cricket. BAN IT.

Safe standing? No such thing, especially if combined with cheap beer. How many disasters do we want before we realise that grown ups should sit down? You don't stand at the Opera, or Ballet.

KFC equipment is more expensive than Mc Donalds ?

Sorry David, but I don't know what equipment they use, I'm not common enough to frequent MacDonalds, I have standards, & taste, & stuff like that.

Indeed, McDonalds is banned in the culinary paradise in which I currently dwell. Kazakhstan. Something to do with the standard of their chicken processing procedure falling below Kazakh standards. Make of that what you will.

... You don't stand at the Opera, or Ballet.

you can buy standing tickets for some Opera and Ballet. Not trying to be awkward.... just saying.

Never knew that.

Where do they congregate?

I managed a first in English language and set about wasting it as much as I could. Got a job with a major gambling firm, holding numerous varied roles then got married to a teacher. Recession hits, prospects wain and my wife gets offered a job in Kaz so I figured I/we had nothing to lose. Undertook a TEFL and an IELTS teaching course and rocked up in Almaty as a high end English language tutor.

Not sure if serious, but the Royal Opera House has standing tickets.  We went in the cheapest seats a few years ago.  Was an experience.  I would recommend it, after all the upgrade cost us a billion or so.  It is such a nice building, and a waste to leave it to the hoorays.   

I did a count at the interval.  There were 8 bottles of beer and precisely a gazillion bottles of champagne.   Think there were 6 bottles of beer left at the end of the break and we drank exactly 2.

That's cool. If you need a place to crash or someone to show you 'the sights' then I'm sure I can be hospitable enough.

you might not be up for it but if you wanted to do a thread describing Kazakhstan, life there etc, put some pictures up sure a lot of people would be interested

my travel bug lapsed with family and commitments a long time ago, cant imagine ill ever do the former USSR countries

no problem if not, but i think kazakhstan is a first for here

I didn't know, but you can't tempt me to go.

My love for opera is almost as intense as tikay's for a show called The Celebrity T20 Wrestling in the Jungle On Ice Song Contest.

B) how to link pictures

a) In the diaries and blogs section

b) upload pictures to something like picasa or photobucket and save the ones you want to you in a folder

then underneath the post will be an "additional options"

click it, press browse and then click your image in

press post

shout if you have problems

+1, be very interesting.

Seems like an idea to be pursued. I'll give it a go tomorrow.

I think we're going to go AirBnB for accommodation thx but someone to tell us the sights would be good.
I don't want to derail the thread so I'll pm you.
