"As others have said about the Villa match, the Conference cup isn’t as ‘easy’ to win as most pundits, many of our own supporters and fans of other clubs have claimed, especially in the aftermath after we had won it. If Villa get knocked out then this adds more credence to our own win. However...

"Re: ""All good sides are built on back fours and goalkeepers"""

Liverpool’s decline during the 90’s seemed to coincide with the new back pass rule. I remember them on many occasions passing back to their keeper from the half-way line in order to waste time or to keep it away from the opposition.

Is that true about bus tickets being included in the price of the match tickets and where and how can this be verified? Two of us will be making our way to the stadium from the Hauptbahnhof by public transport and I was doing research about where and how to buy the bus or tram tickets.
