Janmaat was a massive downgrade from Debuchy, thought he was shite. had minging hair too

thought the atmosphere was fine yesterday, just felt like a standard match. although I do sit back of the Gallowgate which is basically a vacuum very rarely hear the away fans, so if people saying Burnley were good I really have no idea. the acoustics are completely fucked. in terms of the turnstiles, took about 5 minutes to get in, despite the massive queues. there's an issue with people queuing for the exact one on their ticket, or the one they've always used, when plenty nearby have next to no queues and bring you out in exactly the same place. it's the same every game. for the match on Wed, 60/61 I think it was in the Gallowgate sitting empty and there's hundreds queuing to get in the one next door. bit of common sense wouldn't go amiss to alleviate the situation. or some staff out there directing traffic. they're not going to change the system back, so we have to look at solutions. another fact is the current infrastructure doesn't support the amount of people going to the match. going for a piss at half time can take about 15 minutes. getting out the ground even longer. the club need to figure that out before considering any expansion.

losing at home to Palace

reet am off to blast The Borders and order some Gazelles

howeh

still think we should do ISAK to the tune of "attack, attack, attack attack attack"

there's next to no chance Eddie is radge enough to go full strength for this, is there? hopefully not too many changes, we want a win to keep the momentum going.

he’s playing the best football of his career, surely? like a fine wine. what a player!

every single game

brilliant init they're absolute dog shit

do we really need to bump this thread every time this fat oaf rears his stupid ugly face?

no wonder the ultras seemed loud. they were tapped into the PA system frauds

confident in saying he’s one of the best players to ever wear black and white. a proper player Tripps. he was immense again last night. although not sure what it is, but it does seem like he may have lost a bit of confidence in his set pieces. maybe get Tonali on them for a bit.

we left the canal about half 3 and had a lovely trip up. even managed to get a beer outside the ground. fans were mingling with no problems whatsoever. but it sounds like anyone arriving a bit later the detour was a concerted effort from the police to subdue/sober up our fans. nee wonder the atmosphere was a bit flat if people have been made to walk 2k in the blistering heat and then another absolute climb to get into the ground. ridiculous behaviour and we wouldn’t dare treat an away support like that. the less said about the antics after the game the better. shambolic.

first leg of the journey done! didn’t take long for the Monopoly Deal to get busted out.

feel like we should throw things back a bit and go with our high press, high intensity game plan. Prem teams have worked it out, but these Italian dossers won’t have a clue how to handle it. get into them!

not sure where to put this but in the bogs during the first half some absolute knacker having a wizz, doing a key and gagging all at the same time. then starts belting out the Gordon song with all the wrong words different breed.

what’s the advice re: colours? can we wear our toon tops without getting stabbed in the arse?

can’t believe I’m actually going to this. my fondest memories being a supporter were those European nights under Robson. up in level 7 next to some unbelievable travelling fans from the likes of Breda and Valarenga. we get to be those travelling fans again, leaving an impression on the rest of Europe. this is what it’s all about! howay the lads. we’re gonna win n’all

we'll beat these

haha class, that'll all be a quality experience!

how you getting there Paully?

interested to see where people are travelling from. anything from Newcastle seems a right fuck about. not many issues if you're based down south, flights into Italy are reasonable and the train once there will be sound. getting down to London from Newcastle is the longest and most expensive part of it all, stupid fucking country.

they're probably funding a lot of it for brand exposure. I bet their logo will be all over it, and they have to do zero of the work involved. everybody wins really!

Stack is tried and tested, it makes complete business sense to utilise them. what were you expecting like? Sela to fly over a bunch of Saudis to run it all? I'm not sure they'd quite understand our culture.
