  1. Thought he was sat in front of Mandy at first glance
  2. They’ve both been absolutely honk so far here. Long may it continue.
  3. Missed 54 matches in the last few years with 8 different injuries
  4. Our line up from when we beat them 2-0 at their place a couple of seasons ago
  5. Gut feeling tells me it won’t be Gordon. Same as the DCL and Loftus Cheek links, I think it’s a bit of guesswork from the local journalists because they’re not being fed anything from the club. Look at the summer - Botman was off to AC Milan, we’d given up on Isak, we’d moved on from Targett and none of them had a clue about Pope.
  6. I reckon they may sell him for £25m-£30m. May be worth a punt. If Howe can work his magic he becomes a £60m player in 12 months, if not then we’ll probably get our money back from West Ham.
  7. Not only this, but you can see the absolute due diligence they undertake for every major decision. The fact we now have the likes of Ashworth and Eales running the show too makes me so relaxed. We’re in good hands.
  8. Staggered if he gets the starts required to see him get a contract extension. We’re surely going our separate ways in the summer.
  9. Notts Forrest paying £15m for Chris Wood would be the biggest heist since Newcastle paid £25m for Chris Wood.
  10. The whole “I see plenty of youngsters at away games” argument is pretty much irrelevant. They’re being used by people to hoard loyalty points and will have no chance of getting a ticket for in demand games as they’ll forever be stuck on 0 points. Whether people admit it or not the system needs to change. Whether that’s a tweak or a fundamental change is open for debate, but it can’t become a closed shop. For me, the fairest way would be like England do it. Majority of tickets go on loyalty points but c20% go to a ballot.
  11. They paid £63m for Cucurella. Of course they have an excellent relationship
  12. I know a fair number of people who don’t go to aways anymore, just buy a ticket and sell it every game. They’ve all got 200+ loyalties and basically do it for Sunderland away (if it ever happens) or on the off chance we ever get to a final or Europe with a small allocation. Infuriating.
  13. Still in todays training pics that the club have just put up.
  14. Can only imagine we’d let him go if there was an obligation to buy for a good fee if they stay up. £2m loan fee and another £12m or so if they stay up. Otherwise we don’t really get much from this deal.
