Re: Can we make the playoffs?

it is unlikely, but in the last 10 games we have closed the gap by 7 points - there are still 16 games to go!

Re: New Songs

The Weve got super Richie Wellens one - change to ‘Beckles at the back, got McMahon the sack’.

Surely its got to be Beckles at the back, Agyei in attack

Re: Paul Smyth

He has 2, but their leading scorer only has 4! Not likely to return, especially with Jordan Graham back next season.

Re: How can ticketing be improved next season?

I suggest the cap on children because they are, apparently, the main cause of the empty seats according to many of the other fans who have commented.

If this is wrong, then fair enough and the cause for fans not turning up needs to be identifed.

Re: How can ticketing be improved next season?

Maybe 250 is too low, I don't know how many kids season tickets there are, but the principle is there.

Everything can be 'Got Round', but it is worth trying.

Why is charging £50 for a season ticket punishing the kids? In the old days taking them along would have been considered a punishment!

Re: How can ticketing be improved next season?

Charge Adults full price in the North Stand, but can buy a kids ticket for £50.

Kids tickets with less than 10 uses in a season cannot be renewed.

Maximum allocation of 250 kids tickets per season.

Done.

Re: The Positivity Thread- we can still go up as Champs

It would be nice, but I'm personally not too bothered about being champions. I know our form has been poor, but look at what lies ahead when considering we have a 15 point cushion to 4th. From our remaining games, both us and Northampton have only 7 games left against top half teams. Stevo, Salford,...

Covid testing

Are supporters required to get tested before attending
LOFC home games? I know some others teams are enforcing this, but I haven't seen anything about this on the O's website.

We are on the 5th day of lock-down and we are finding it very hard. I look at my wife at the window, tears streaming down her face, taught with frustration. It's so hard that sometimes I even think about letting her back in.
