Thread | Points needed for survival
at 13:59 1 Jan 2025
I've run 20,000 simulations of my shot-based model. 35 points gives a greater than 60% chance of survival. So hoping for at least 20 points in second half of season!

Thread | Any chance we'll install another big screen to show VAR decisions?
at 15:14 6 Jun 2024
With one of the improvements suggested for VAR relying on fans being able to see a big screen, i.e. "where possible, an enhanced offering of big screen replays to include all VAR interventions", what's the likelihood of getting another big screen at PR so that replays can be seen by the whole ground?
It's likely to make the VAR experience even more difficult to interpret for areas of the stadium that can't see the big screen (like SAR3 where I sit), but I remember MA said there weren't any other areas of PR suitable for another screen. |

Thread | How many points needed for top 2?
at 09:42 15 Apr 2024
This is an update from my model (20k simulations, team ratings based on goals and shots for and against). 2 wins gives a 92% chance of promotion. A win and a draw is 56%. Town are in an amazing position.

Reply | View from my seat

Was excited to check out my new season ticket seat for the first time on Saturday. Being high up in SAR3 it gives a good view of the pitch and the legroom is much better than seats in the West or Cobbold stands. Very similar to the away end view at Sunderland last week. Living in York, it's the first time I've had a season ticket since the irrational excitement of Keane's first season. By the time I decided to get one, after being seduced by Mark Ashton's buy now while stocks last sales pitch, there weren't too many good options for 3 seats together available. I was slightly wary about SAR, having not sat there since the 2001 season when the North stand was being rebuilt. But the atmosphere was OK, there was some singing - mostly following what was coming from the SBR stand. However, I wonder if extending the pitch has worsened the sightlines to the goal at the SAR end. I often needed to crane my neck or swerve past heads to fully view the goal posts, especially when people were walking down the aisle before the end of the match. Strangely didn't hear much from the Stoke fans, given they were so close. But the view of them (and sound?) is obscured by Cobbold stand roof. A couple of drawbacks of the seat's position are I can't see the screen and can't see what Blue Action are up to in Block A. But overall good view, comfortable seat and decent atmosphere. Can't comment on the facilities as haven't used them yet. |

I regularly drive my Tesla from Yorkshire to Ipswich (even more soon now I have season ticket). It's brilliant. There are a 16 Tesla superchargers at Grantham plus a load of new Gridserve ones now too, so easy charging en route. Suffolk isn't great for changing yet, but new fast chargers popping up all the time on A14. There are even Tesla super chargers planned at junction 53 of A14 near Ipswich. |
