Is Jorge Mendes involved in this hiring?

Any good?

Yes, they are decent, but order two sizes too big I'd recommend.

Certainly feels very reminiscent of their Ten Hag signing. A promising manager coming from outside the premier league who's not so promising that it feels like a coup but also not got any red flags either.
Certainly not jealous or concerned (Klopp to Liverpool, Pep to City) but regrettably there's also nothing there to enable us to point and laugh (Mourinho to Spurs, Lampard to Chelsea).
I'd hoped for more commitment to the banter club ethos than this, but maybe the payoff is in two years when it's revealed he's exactly as good/bad as Ten Hag.

A lot of these sellers are people who work at the factory and make these on the side. Hence why they get the material spot on. Issues are mostly the badges and sponsors, because they probably they haven't got QC like at the factory.
Kind of wild going to Vietnam and seeing knock off shops that are basically Sports Direct.

There's a slight problem in that I don't know which freaking sellers on their are reliable! |

Have used them the last few years, agree a size or two up. Only had one issue with the number peeling off but otherwise all grand.

I didn’t get a name/number or additional sleeve badges though so I can’t comment on that quality. |

According to Record, Sporting is not letting Amorim go before the next international break.

I've used this website - www.kitgg7.com/They show you what you've ordered, unlike DHGate where you have to guess the shirt without the sponsers/badges. A lad from footy said his shirts took 3 weeks to arrive from ordering. I'm 2 weeks and they've given me a shipping number that I am daily checking to see when it's landed in the UK. |

Yeah it's being widely reported now. Not really a big deal. It's literally only 2 weeks away. Happy to see what Ruud can get these fuckwits to do over the next 3 games. |

Can you let me know when it arrives and if it's any good. |

I've used Fine Ball Official and took a couple of weeks and they resolved an issue within a day. Quality of shirts and badges are pretty decent |

I haven't been to a premier league match in years, and the last few times I've gone it's either on someone else's season ticket or through corporate (nice sandwiches).
So now that my daughter is playing for a team and wanting to get more involved with football I thought it would be cool to look at getting some Spurs tickets at some point. HA!
Are most premier league clubs this awkward to get tickets for?
You have to have a paid membership EACH @ £50 to even have a chance to enter the lottery. You then have to (somehow) link those accounts because you can only buy one ticket per membership. It looks like a complete pain in the arse.
Think I'll stick to grassroots for now. Seems a bit pointless paying £100 for memberships partway through the season.

Seems a bit pointless paying £100 for memberships partway through the season. I expect all clubs have a membership scheme nowadays to try and stop fans mixing. Plus, tourists will pay so it's another revenue stream... Cup or midweek games should be easier to get but you'd probably still need to be a member. |

If you know some ticket holders they might be able to transfer to you without you needing to apply in a ballot. You can transfer to non paid members now at United from this season. But there’s a surcharge of £10. If you can find a good Facebook group they’re normally a handy way of finding tickets, especially for lower demand games. Just make sure to get vouches for anyone you’re buying off. Looks like Spurs have something similar: ask.tottenhamhotspur.com/hc/en-us/articles/6776245129756-Ticket-Share-Non-Members |

We haven’t had tickets on general sale for a league game since 2018, two years before promotion. I doubt any club that hits capacity most games will have general sale. Early round cup games are your best bet, bit late for that now this season. |

Yeah, Arsenal changed from a first come, first served online system 2 years ago to a ballot. And you also need to have entered the ballot for a fixture to try and nab a ticket on the ticket exchange. Always have people asking for tickets and most of the time if I can't go, they go to friends. Occasionally I sort friends of friends out, which I like doing, especially if it's kids who struggle to get in.

Its basically impossible to get Newcastle tickets these days too. All the same hurdles that everyone else has mentioned plus a huge uptick in demand.
I know its partly a luck thing (or lack thereof) but it has become a running joke in the office that one of my colleagues tries for almost every home game and hasn’t got into a single one since the takeover.
If my son starts showing an interest it’ll probably be a women’s team (two good ones near us) or Blyth Spartans (our nearest team of note but they have been rubbish the last few years).

I've ended up getting tickets for Spurs v Arsenal ladies on the 16th. They normally play at Leyton Orient, but this one is at the new stadium. £15 + £5. It's also 3 days after her birthday, so... Perfect! (almost)
Does seem a bit of a joke to get a ticket. Having to be a paid member for each of the people that want to go, with zero guarantee that a) you'll get a ticket and b) tickets next to each other is mental.

Same story with Everton and membership. Our home league games have always sold out for the last few years, but this season is virtually impossible given the demand to get to Goodison one last time.
My son needs to go before it's too late, so I'm waiting to see if we get a home FA cup tie. If not I'm looking at resale sites, which are a rip-off but not that different in cost once you factor in everyone's membership cost through the legitimate channels!

Tickets next to each other at Leeds is basically impossible. I can normally get a ticket for any game I want because any returned on the exchange go straight onto the site, you just need to sit refreshing whilst you’re watching TV or whatever and something will usually appear if you’re quick. 99.9% of the time it’s just singles though. Fortunately I’m perfectly happy going alone. |

The only games at United I can ever get are cup games, as the season ticket holders typically sell those tickets back to Utd to offset the cost of the season.
They’ve now introduced a thing whereby you can’t download your ticket to your phone wallet and it has to be scanned in via the app at the gate. Just hoping to god this works offline as I do not get good signal around OT, and we’ve managed to get our first tickets since Newcastle panelled us in I think February.
We could have gone to the EFL game against Leicester - there again I think there were tickets available - had we known the notability of that game in advance it would have have been a shoe in.
Other half is currently trying to get a Europa game which it appears will be Amorim’s first and it’s a queuing hell at the mo so maybe this is bucking the trend as you might expect with the news and hype.
We’re in the queue for season now the kiddo is approaching the age she could be left at home.
Edit - forgot we managed to get a CL game last year. So you can luck out *occasionally*
