So one of my friends won the Chilly’s competition! Her + 5 friends. Her and her partner already had tickets but her other 4 guests didn’t so she’s done well there!

That's the maddest thing, how quickly they build from pretty much nothing to an entire city. It's incredible.

There are so many of these. Just off the top of my head we've had loads. Suarez undoubtedly top of the list but even some "lesser" offenders like Bellamy and Robertson. Not sure I agree. I'm still raging about Sterling being given offside when he played for us v City 😄 As above tbf.

I'm available to help on Thursday, happy to pay with my own card in the interest of speed and speak to whoever I'm successful for separately to sort the money afterwards. I have some friends I am trying for in general sale. Haven't added them to any spreadsheets as in honesty - as it's their first time even trying for tickets - I think the ticket process is blowing their minds enough before I even try and explain any of our spreadsheets. If we manage to get them tickets early on in the Sunday sale though I'm happy to try for any spreadsheets here then too.

Fergie and Wenger teams didn't get above 90 points as far as I know. If the title race was each teams best ever points hauls then United and Arsenal would have been out of the title race against Liverpool and City 2-3 games before the end of the season. Fully appreciate it's a different era and football has evolved but from a purely points based perspective Klopps LFC would have won the league ahead of United and Arsenal every year they won the league. I have no doubt the top 2 in PL history are Ferguson and Wenger, but the fact people so criminally underrate Klopp is difficult to understand.

Out of curiosity, I assume that's the budget for the setup etc and doesn't include the cost of all the acts too?

Avalon is definitely done now. The only hope to cling to is them being on Other or Pyramid but I just can’t see it. No reason why they would have had to hold back announcing them either due to album/tour etc embargo.

I like to think I'm a fairly level headed LFC fan. Klopp is, without doubt, the best manager we've had in decades and deserves a statue. The point about it being a "covid title" holds no weight as we were 25 points ahead before football got stopped. Klopp finished on 90+ points twice and didn't win the league both times, he was up against an absolute juggernaut in Pep's Man City. Any other era and he would have won 3 or 4 titles in a row. I'm not going to compare him to Fergie who (it pains me to say) is the best ever but I think Klopp is criminally underrated as a result of losing out on 2 PL titles to an incredible Man City team and 2 CL finals to Madrid. If things had gone slightly differently he could be leaving with 3 PL titles and 3 CL titles.

Avalon announcement tomorrow at 2pm confirming my dream of Busted being their Sunday headliner. No info, just been clinging on to this dream for so long they need to put me out of my misery and confirm it's not happening.

The thing is I think a lot of us are spoilt by going every/most years. The spider is hugely impressive to anyone new. I bought my brother and his girlfriend to their first Glastonbury last year and they were blown away.

More important than Williams Green or Arcadia changes. Where are they putting the silent disco this year? I need it back this year.

Now we’re talking.

Great spot Yog!

Very aware reading that back it has become very obvious who I work for 😄 Would LOVE for our brands to be at the festival (and more importantly beg for free tickets).

I've think I've mentioned on eFests that I work for a brewery (one you've mentioned) but genuinely interesting to know there are people on the other side of things who will be a lot less biased than me. For a festival I think Carlsberg will end up as supplier more times than not purely as they're the cheapest. Festivals have a captive audience so to a certain point can sell what they want. I come up against CMBC a lot in my role and I always think the same, it's not the best lineup but they have a decent lineup of world/premium. I love Estrella, think it's one of the best lagers in the UK but for some reason don't see it too much in the UK (probably price as it isn't owned by one of the main 3) I can't share the figures here as it's work related but it's genuinely amazing how that has become a top 3 lager in Wales (top 5 in the UK) already. Lovely beer. I would definitely dispute the second Madri point though.. I work for one of the 3 breweries mentioned above and Madri is 100% not a Heineken product. Unfortunately also not CMBC so no chance at Glastonbury 😞
