I’ve not seen a cup draw take so long to be drawn since the League Cup semi-final last season.

BBC 2 coverage ends in 25 minutes.

All those 60+ year old male football leader are absolutely loving this show. Not.

An hour in, and we don’t know any further than the 3 co-hosts pre-determined group positions.

He’s definitely got a plaster on his hand where there has been an IV in it.

If he wearing a plaster on his hand?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I’m a man of the people. He then gos on to refer to football and the World Cup as an elite product, and says that FIFA are aware of the need for affordable tickets. He’s an absolute fucking spanner.

Building on Castle Leazes where it’s just grass with a slight encroachment over the tree line into Leazes Park is the best and easiest solution to me.

They fit well within YouTube titles, and to be honest the people who watch him are the less informed who think that by watching him, they will be more informed and those strap lines work. As it happens he’s not very well informed himself so there is also an element of it working on him too.

Alex Hurst and Charlotte will get 149 of them for themselves.

Should be moved to the French non-league along with all their South Coast buddies.

Tony Bloom in the mud, he’s being accused of running a football betting syndicate that also includes Farage’s former chief of staff.

For reference, this is Leeds availability ahead of their 8:15pm KO against Chelsea tonight. This gos to show that it’s not just us that is having problem with this KO time.

That 15 minutes means people using the Northumberland line can’t, most if not all trains to Durham and South have been missed. Any bus north Cramlington has been missed with people also left fighting for the last bus on other routes. Have that game KO at 8pm or 7:45pm and it sells out, like every midweek game we have had at those times this season, and in the past 4 years which includes opposition like Bradford, and Wimbledon.

I don’t see why we wouldn’t need a 70k capacity stadium. Since the takeover every gam has been a sellout with tens of thousands after tickets. Last night was an anomaly due to the KO time. Technically the game was a sellout, and the tickets that became available only did so yesterday and quite close to KO in the grand scheme of things. If that game had a 8pm KO the vast majority of those tickets would not have been returned, a 7:30 KO like the other games last night and there would have been no chance of getting a ticket. Even when you do factor in those returned tickets, there wasn’t any noticeable gaps in the crowd.

I think it all comes down to that extra 15 minutes for the delayed KO. If you are using public transport then you are fucked. You are rushing out for the last bus. Getting north of Cramlington on public transport would be pretty much impossible. You wouldn’t even catch the last train on the Northumberland line last night, although from a week on Sunday they will be doing a later a train. I’m not sure what the timetables do even places like Durham would look like. I live right next to a Metro station that I can get direct to/from SJP, but I wasn’t convinced that there would be enough services left to let me on last night so I took the car in. This is one the reasons why I never really got behind the arena site idea. It’s just too far out from the busses, and most Metro stations for late night KO’s. A 8:15pm KO so Sky can show you the fist half of 1 game, the full first half of our game, the final 10 minutes of the initial game, before coming back to see our game. To make matters worse, one of the earlier KO’s was in London. You know that city that is famed for its late night public transport and even has night busses. If our match kicked off at 8pm then those tickets don’t become available. A 7:30pm KO and you’re laughing. In an era when TV’s are big enough for multi-screen if that’s your thing, and computers actually have multi screens, we have phones, tablets, TV’s, and monitors, we shouldn’t be fucking fans about to placate arm-chair fans who want to be able to watch most of 2 different games.

The linesman put the fucking ball out of play after he made an error and gave a goal kick. Can we take our fucking heads out of our arses and admit our officials are fucking shit?

Fucking loads of tickets to be picked up on the clubs site if anyone is after one.

I don’t know. Players these days are pampered. Let’s say we are trying to get someone in from PSG or Real Madrid, if they have an option of us or someone else who can offer a better training ground, where do you go? Obviously wages will be a big part of that conversation. I think we need to be the best we can be in all areas, an if that mean the decor of the training ground is better than it is now, then we need to do that, just as much as we need to sort our stadium out.

I think that’s the point though. The players we are after will want a more luxurious training ground. I’m sure PSG have apartments in theirs so players don’t even need to buy a house anymore.

Plenty of tickets available for this.

Yeah. I mean I still think we’ll come up with a really great design and state of the art stadium, I just think once we do see it, it will be ready to go in terms of planning etc.

It probably will be the stadium, and other development related. Potentially even transfer window related.

No because they had to pay a fee which I presume was more than what they sold for initially.
