Can anybody explain...

Re: Can anybody explain...

Surely they would have released more had they been able to?

Every other team has managed it.

You'd think, but I can't second guess any of this stuff anymore. I've lost complete track of time and I'd have to check the purchase dates but I may have even bought them before restrictions. I just can't remember - I'm still living in early 2019!

Every other team though is in another country that has it's own rules.

Ours being what exactly?

That is where the problem lies.

I remember getting the pre sale e-mail and I'm sure that was some time ago so you're probably right.

A little bit of light reading for you about regulated events

Re: Can anybody explain...

Does anyone know how many times we've got over 8,000 for pre-season friendly?

Not pre-season, but 40,000 for Moscow Dynamo - a good article here:

“Can anybody explain” I thought it was referring to skateboarding at the Olympics ?
The participants had to jump on a stair rail and jump off at the end. I see it almost everyday at the local parks ?

I see people playing football at pontcanna fields on a Saturday, kicking the ball up and down, taking throw ins and corners and that. Can anybody explain why football is an Olympic sport?

Re: Can anybody explain...

Would the cricket get 2k anyway?

Would we even get 8k for a friendly?

It didn’t look like there was 8k there this evening, I haven’t seen a reported attendance yet

Bit of a stupid comparison.
Teams are either very good or not.
These skateboarders ALL slid down the rail. They were being judged on who had the better style. ?
The Olympic events are becoming totally poor.

About 3500 ? No one said it was sold out did they ?

Hard to tell when the crowd was so spread out.
Think the seagulls were enjoying having fans back aswell.

My point is that to the untrained eye, a kick about on pontcanna fields will look the same as the world cup final. When it comes to skateboarding you have an untrained eye (as do I- that's not a criticism). There is a reason the kids at your skate park are not competing in the Olympics. Yes they are scored for style and that will be the difference. Some will be very good at it and go to the Olympics; others will not be and won't.
