Grenta played Derry I think and got knocked out. For ages Dundee was one of the only cities to provide more than one European cup semi finalist along with Belgrade and Milan but I’d imagine London, Madrid and Manchester all figure now. the comical thing about the mackems European adventures was they didn’t even get out the English stage of the Anglo Italian, Italy ended at Southend for them.

Be disappointing doing anything other than winning it imo

I suppose the mcewans looked ok in black and white as did greenalls, not sure if that’s just nostalgia or they had more interesting logos. Juve Sony/danone/ariston/upim always looked good too

I think having the sponsor on monochrome colours doesn’t really light up a shirt, the blue star was obviously iconic but it also gave the shirt some colour.

I think there would be people maybe dropping out of the semi due to money etc but scared to not buy in case of getting to the final, so selling on to mates etc.

Imagine the ructions when we get 10 k tickets for a Europa/conference final in besiktas/leipzig.

I was toying with this last time, I only got a ticket the day before the final and the group of lads I usually go with were already down London. I’ve had not such hassle this time (my turn on st) but I’ll not be as fortunate if we make it to fa cup final, which presumably would offer us a better chance of winning should we get that far. I’d still obviously rather we won when i wasn’t there but it would be gutting to miss the ‘first’ one.

Even then 7th would get Europe if England gets extra space, unless win league cup, which obviously gets us Europe anyway.

7th would be bumped to conference if a team below us won fa cup.

7th and Villa or someone beating Man City in the cup final would be a kick in the teeth, again.

If I wasn’t going I’d be tempted by the grove offering.

Definitely not but odd that it’s the same pattern as the away.

Quite like this tbh

I done those five plus England v Czech in Euro 21 which was massively lacking in atmosphere due to limited capacity. The only England game I’ve ever been to.

New York wouldn’t be that much worse than Istanbul, sure it’s been in Moscow and Kiev previously too although obviously won’t be again anytime soon.

The comments on the chronicle fb page about starmer don’t exactly cover us in glory either tbf

Was confused by that shearer goal for a bit!

I feel like the whole process of going in earlier in recommended slot took a long time last time, that definitely didn’t help. Maybe we will be a more streetwise to it all this year.

Hands up, That’s one of mine, had a few spare prints so got some templates and got them printed up, some were better than others.

Spurs game is only Sunday due to Europe isn’t it so won’t be televised. We will be either 3/4.30

Wouldn’t usually want psg to beat Brest but they would give Liverpool more of a test before we play them in the final, could still end up playing benfica or Monaco mind.

Tried pod on the Tyne again today but couldn’t get far before that whitehead bloke was on and can’t take to him, shame as Waugh is decent.

I'd probably buy loads of tat should we win anything, an FA Cup patch with 7 would be very stylish.

No interest in this sort of stuff unless we won tbh

I noticed at one game recently, though it could have been any as the point will be the same, the only non white faces at the stadium are either on the pitch or working in the bars, must be a very low number that probably doesn't reflect the demographics of the city these days, and obviously its hard to change for the reasons already mentioned. Not suggesting that anyone should get an advantage in getting tickets etc but I bet the club would prefer a more diverse crowd.
