  1. How has Cash not seen a 2nd yellow? Done two bookable challenges on Gordon since his 1st booking.
  2. How long is an ACL injury? Usually long isn’t it?
  3. Aye, that’s what I thought, our players thought it would be called back. Play to the whistle.
  4. 7, more than usual, but nowhere near the 13 minutes that was promised. I wonder why that might be.
  5. Let’s see how much is really added on then.

    It’s close to the cities two busiest local bus stations, and is close to 2 of the busiest city centre Metro stations.
  7. Forest’s away kit is what I can only describe as what a Premier League 11’s generic kit would look like.
  8. The old system wasn’t exactly not digital, it just wasn’t on your phone.

    Well that’s the thing. Sunderland’s stadium never got that development, and is only getting it now. So for 30 years it has been described as a generic flat pack stadium, in a shit area. We would want better than that, and I’m not just on about for away fans, I’m on about the home fans as well. Would you want to be going to your turnstile opposite Arena car wash?
  10. The Premier League have fucked themselves here. With the new rule on the added time, it’s likely that this match will end after 3pm now. The TV blackout starts at quarter to 3.

    It’s away from the retail core, but still city centre. It would be much easier to get too for away fans, and those to the west, and south of the city. The thing about a stadium there is that if you build it there, you are having to redevelop the whole area around it, because those garages, show rooms, even under the tunnels, is all grim as fuck. To be honest, building a new arena on there would have been great, if they decided to do the whole area up. You do on the plus side, have a heck of a lot of land to build an excellent stadium with a decent footprint.
  12. Shame they have sold the rights to DAZN. If it was anyone else, I’d probably catch a couple of games here & there when there was nothing else on.
  13. Possibly. I bet this government can’t wait to dispose of the land. I do however think that land should be used for housing, and a local councillor has suggested that the Freeman hospital should move there.
  14. I think we’ll get 1 more player in. That will either be a CB, or a LB.
  15. I’ve also heard that they have recently looked at the former Sage site.
  16. Firmino was on for a hat trick in the 10th minute.

    I think the planning permission is due to lapse soon. In saying that, until they start developing it, it would likely be available for fee, just like the Strawberry land. You would need to develop the whole area around it though, because it is fucking grim around all those garages.
  18. Liverpool fan on Five live screeching about how Man City have bought their way to success, and saying that we are doing the same, as it comes out that they are spending a British record transfer fee of £111m. Still the Keegan money though I suppose.

    I think any new stadium/redevelopment we get, will be on a larger footprint. Concourses are bigger these days, offer more facilities etc. There are plenty of NFL stadiums that fit within or just over a city block in the USA. It’s usually the parking which takes up massive amounts of room.
  20. I felt like some of it was forced. Why would they need to go to Alnwick castle for an executive meeting? Going to Yasir’s home. ‘We can’t all go to his house, there is like 100 people’ ’Nah, we can sort that no problem’. It was shit that they spend 10 minutes focussing on the Gordon deal, had put in a bid that was rejected, club couldn’t afford anymore, The next minute he has signed, Shearer says that we got the deal we originally wanted without showing, or explaining how that came about. The Saudi links were brushed away, as others have said, in a pointless way of bringing them up. There was no mention of the takeover taking forever, or a proper explanation of how the deal came about. It seems to be more of a a season review so far.
  21. So it comes out at midnight. So that means you are all going to spoil it for me if I don’t watch it tonight, aren’t you?
