  1. Yeah, he was poor and as much as I defended him in the past, he needs to be moved on.
  2. We knocked it about ok, but there was no urgency. When we needed to make a simple pass we played through a load of opposition players and ultimately lost the ball. Just no decision making at all, and a few players showing that they are nowhere near where we need them to be.
  3. If we don’t, then it would be a struggle to get in the top 10 this season.
  4. Is it just me or does Fraser always seem to carry weight on his waist? It makes him look like he’s always overweight.
  5. Forests’ squad was pretty shit to be honest. They managed to find a manager who got the very best out of them and they rode on the back of good form. Had they not invested, they would have went down in last place and you wouldn’t have been surprised if they had given the record low points a good run for it’s money. They had to invest, but when you bring so many players in you really do just wonder if they are just trying to get everyone on their scouts watchlist without really paying too much attention, and hoping enough of them are good enough, or if they have actually done their work properly.
  6. Does it have the city map on it?
  7. He is, but then again bringing Andy Carroll back again would be an upgrade, doesn’t my mean we should sign him.
  8. Toney is overrated in my opinion. He’s decent, but he’s not at the level we want to be out and never will be.
  9. There would be riots on the streets if either of Real Madrid or Barca were wound up. I read an article a couple of years back saying that Spanish banks won’t force the closure of either club because their personal banking sections would just suffer mass withdrawals overnight. With Barca it’s even more tricky. They are a symbol of Catalan, where they are typically supported by Catalan separates, where as Espanyol their local rivals are typically supported by remainers. Iy would be political suicide for any sort of Spanish authority to wind up Barca.
  10. He was a really good player when he was here, and when he showed up. I wouldn’t want him back though, rather develop someone or buy someone with more of a future ahead of themselves, and someone who did my jump ship out of the club as soon as he could.
  11. In terms of the Arsenal game last season and recent games against big teams where we have got a result, I think is down to us smelling blood. Arsenal last year were not in the greatest of form, despite being so high up in the league there were performances where you think they are questionable in quality. We on the other hand were in form, and our poor players were turning in good performances. It meant that we had the prospect of an upset, even though it was predictable by anyone who had seen both teams play recently. In Ashley years, and especially the later stages, I think it’s always been a case that in reality we are only a couple of players away from where the likes of Arsenal and Man Utd are. Even though Ashley wouldn’t sanction those deals, it has been a case of if their big name players don’t turn up, then there is nothing separating us really. Often it has been a case of their big name players not showing up in matches building up to our games, and our crowd and fan base feeding off that.
  12. Thing is now that tickets are in demand, it leaves open the chance for season ticket holders to get an extra ticket that they don’t need and to sell it on above market value. With a member, you know they are likely buying for themselves. Yes for cup games, and friendlies give them a priority/chance to get their own seat.
  13. Can the next picture of it be the right way up?

    St James' Park

    Not long after it was put up, the Hull match had to be delayed an hour because it wasn’t tied correctly, and the wind was banging it against the glass. The TV should never have been on the glass, but fixed to the cladding below the glass, of course Mike had SD in mind for that bit.

    Yeah it is, in fact even on non match days the signal in Newcastle on a Saturday is fucking shit.
  16. With West Ham and Fulham, unfortunately they are London prices.

    Jeff Hendrick

    Aye, I thought he might be steady at best. There was literally nothing about him, and he even pushed for a permanent move to us the following summer.
  18. Is there not a way to keep it on your digital wallet?
  19. If the sleeves/dark blue section was red instead, I think that would look so much better and much more like a Barca kit.
