So at last, we have (hopefully) fans into the ground for the game.
What do we think the side should be?. In my opinion, there should be room in the side (probably 2nd half) for Alioski, Berardi and our magician Pablo. For various reasons these three deserve to get the crowds accolade for the services to the club, with special room for Pablo who was an absolute star for 2 seasons.
Hopefully, the full team will also parade the Championship trophy for the fans, would be a bit weird I grant you given that we are in the PL, but it would be a chance to finally rejoice the achievement and get a full fans version of MOT ringing around the stands.
I'm sure others will have their opinions.
Snoddy - enjoy the day. I miss ER. Maybe next season?
Cheers Bull, I will dress accordingly

Time 4pm
Location Elland Road, Leeds, LS11
WBA game is a fair bit away yet so closer to the time i'll send out an update on the 20th😉
Normally a game at ER is special in its own right, however after everything we have gone through and what we have missed, those lucky enough to have a ticket for the game, I hope you have a moment to stop and reflect that you are one of a very select few, that can finally start our journey back to normality. Enjoy the day and here's to a hat full of goals at the West Brom end. MOT
PS. I wouldn't bother going onto the pitch as you'd probably slip and do yourselves some damage!😂
see you at the game snoddy
You lucky bar steward! Enjoy and sing for the rest of us 😊
Nice one M'Lud enjoy the game, make sure the singing vocals are in pristine condition, us mere mortals would like to experience a bit of "live" fan atmosphere rather than than that computer generated sh*te.
Will you actually require a decent weather forecast or will you wing it???
much like your WF predictions😉
If you feel guilty of having a ticket when others have missed out I know a willing recipient 😬
Buzzing, woke up this morning and had another look at my email, I got a message later on last night to say I have been successful in getting a ticket after all. Lovely job.
I didn't get a ticket, know a few that did. It was a proper ballot, no favourites, some that have been going home and away for decades missed out.
Roll on next season.
Would expect us to give 2000 tickets away to local NHS workers as a gesture of thanks. Leaving 6k for ST holders and think it will be done with nearest first to avoid people travelling.
t will be pulled out of a computer random generator
You have to be a season ticket holder.
The club have said there will be no special celebration, that will be done when ER is full again.
It will be a celebration for those that get to go though, also a chance to wave off a few players, Pablo especially but probably others too.
As a season ticket holder I have roughly a 30% chance of getting a ticket.
I hope I get one but won't be gutted if I don't, sounds like a bit of a Ballache , with all the regulations. It's a first step I suppose back to normality. Roll on next season when hopefully we will be allowed to go away too.
I bet the 8000 will still make a good atmosphere, over a year to make up for.
I tried to get on as a Gold member but couldn't get through. Got to the queue but couldn't get further.... be like winning the lottery to get picked for a ticket.
At least my £100 for membership this year will go towards buying Perraud or Tagliafico, Koopermeiners, De Paul and Toney....
I think it makes sense to have a celebration of some sort, both for last season but also for the players leaving this summer.
I expect there will be some sort of NHS or charity allocation for at least a portion of the tickets.
Who is going to get the tickets for the game ?
Will it be drawn out of a hat or will gold members have first dibs?
