Hang about, what’s this? A new independent media title dedicated to the trials and tribulations of Hartlepool United? Yes, it is. And it’s coming very, very soon, steered by @StellingRobbie, until last month the Pools correspondent for the Hartlepool Mail.

@PnoTuna It was actually better than served up food I've had in hospitality tbf. I'd rather the buffet than the crap served up usually.

Did i read correctly that the meal at the sponsors evening changed from it's normal meal to a buffet? That will have saved a few quid.

Anyone driving to Grimsby on Saturday morning that might have a space? #STFC

@WeAreFreeLions One more thing on this, is there a requirement for a fire safety certificate for flags, do you know? I know clubs in the UK typically require one, so wondered the same for here. Cheers

@JayBox325 It is yes

🧵🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿After meeting local organisers, here is a thread of early info for any fans looking to plan travel to and from games at the World Cup. 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐯 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐚 - 𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬 Fans are likely to be staying all around the North Texas area, particularly Dallas and Fort Worth. If you are staying in Dallas or Fort Worth, you can purchase a ticket and travel on the Trinity Railway Express (TRE) towards the Centreport Station. From there, a free bus service will run to and from the stadium for ticket holders. Rideshare options such as Uber will drop off near the eSports Stadium, with around a 15-20 minute walk to the Dallas stadium. With Fort Worth 16 miles away, and downtown Dallas 20 miles, taxis are likely to be more expensive, and traffic quite heavy. ESTC ticket holders will be located in sections towards the east of the stadium, just off AT&T way. ‘Hydration Stations’ will be placed along the route to the stadium from both the bus and taxi drop offs. Local organisers were keen to stress the likelihood of intense heat, so keep yourselves hydrated! For fans there early enough, we’d recommend heading towards Texas Live, an indoor and outdoor space with plenty of food and drink, located in between the Choctaw Stadium and the Globe Life stadium. The official but very expensive parking can be booked through the FIFA website, although other options around Arlington may be available if you plan ahead or arrive early, although given how busy it is likely to be, we wouldn’t advise leaving it to late and to chance. We would highly recommend leaving plenty of time, at least 120 mins, to get to the stadium from either downtown area. Bus services will start 5 hours before kick off, and will run up to 3 hours after the game.

@WeAreFreeLions Awesome. Thanks for confirming.

@JayBox325 ESTA’s last for two years from the date you got it 👍

@WeAreFreeLions Amazing, ta.

@WeAreFreeLions I've got an ESTA from last year when I went out to watch Oasis. Do I need to re-apply for a fresh ESTA, or will my existing one cover this tournament?

𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐀 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 Have you applied yet? If not, we would seriously recommend doing this as soon as possible, although check that your passport is in date first! Approval should be relatively quick assuming you have filled the application in accurately. Should your application fail, you will need to contact the US Embassy in London and arrange a meeting for a Visa. This process can be lengthy. You can download the ESTA Mobile app, or follow the link below for the official application. Do not use a third party. esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 For any supporters planning to spend more than 30 days at the World Cup at one time, you should check your travel insurance. Most annual insurances cover you for trips no more than 30 days at one time, so worth contacting your insurance provider if this is you.

England’s new kit has split opinion. For @MikeWaltersMGM, it’s another case of style winning out over substance, and fans paying the price. Our latest Sixty Six piece can be found in the link below.

@USAinUKConsular And if you already have a visa from last year that remains to be valid?

@Official_STFC 8pm absolutely kills the trains back.

🎟️ Ticket information for our trip to Cambridge on Thursday 2 April is now available:

I don't know who filmed it but it still sends shivers down my spine. Can't wait for 15/16. #STFC

@monzo Is it possible to set up a scheduled international payment with Monzo?

@TheWidthofaPost Sent you a DM. Would love to talk.

@TheWidthofaPost Can you please DM me. I'd love to talk about helping a blind groundhopper visit your ground.

@Official_STFC Just tried to purchase, but I was only given the option for posting, but I am also unable to change my address...

🎟️ Ticket information for our trip to Gillingham on Tuesday 17 March is now available:

@WeAreFreeLions Just tried to email you about an issue I had buying my Japan tickets hoping you'd be able to help me, but I got an error from your email (freelions AT thefsa.org.uk)

If you still think supporting Palestinian's right to exist is antisimetic, you need your head examining.

@timofthetown @Frogfoot67 @B3NKirby I did sell a bunch of packs of stickers (including the Tabor ones) at the start of the season. I might have one or two left if you're interested @B3NKirby @timofthetown

@JayBox325 @Frogfoot67 @B3NKirby They're top drawer - great work 👏👏

Worth watching til the end of this little gem #stfc

@Frogfoot67 @B3NKirby @timofthetown Hahaha. Yeah, they're mine. Gave Jake some at the end of the Rovers game.

@B3NKirby @timofthetown Get in touch with @JayBox325
