    Here's hoping the serving staff are a little quicker and someone has told them what's happening. I'd recommend taking something to while away the time whilst queuing.

    If they’ve any sense, they’ll have tables filled with pre-poured pints/drinks of select brands and hand them out away from the concession lines.

    A good idea, which won't happen. If anything they'll probably put on less bar staff.

    If they gave away 10 free pints people would be moaning that they were too drunk to concentrate on the game :D

    I recommend you start queuing around Thursday morning. Maybe take a sleeping bag and a pillow.

    I would say and something to drink, but that would make it a bit pointless.

    I have a dream. That one day, everyone will make ‘fewer’ grammatical mistakes ‘less’ often.

    That posters will know that it is ‘should have’ or the abbreviated form ‘should’ve’ but never ‘should of’.

    I have a dream that WFC Forums will never mistake there, their and they’re.

    This was never are forum to begin with. But it is ours.

    Rumour has it that there will be a half-and-half scarf on sale Saturday.
    One half "GT" the other "Harry Bassett".

    No - only kidding.

    The club didn’t have to do this.
    It’s the kind of gesture you expect from good owners
    We are lucky.
    They are respectful and have done a good thing.
    We say they are financially astute, which they are.

    Back of a postage stamp 10,000 fans times £4 - that’s 40,000 they are spending. I know this isn’t about money but it shows in this financial world that the owners don’t just think that way.
    Good on them

    Thanks to them and to GT for all he did

    Agreed UB, but what about the constant use of ‘loosing’ a game.
    Neither a grammatical nor a spelling error, but just so so wrong and upsets people (at least one) on this forum when we do lose.

    Great gesture by the club, I will be arriving early to get my pint/ cup of tea before kick off.

    I hope there’s also some recognition of Chopper Duncan Welbourne’s passing.

    There will be - it will take 280 consecutive matches until you get to the front of the queue.

    Great guesture and well done to the club for organising such an event. A fitting tribute to the man to go along with the fantastic scarf event and passion shown at Palarse last Saturday.

    I wonder if Emma Saunders will be behind the bar for the event? I know she’s our goal announcer etc. but that might free Dyche to get on the tannoy in his billy gruff voice and acclaim his admiration for our club, as a previous player and manager we all deep down know he has.

    He’s Claret and Blue outside but he was Taylor Made inside to sone respect.
