    St James' Park

    How poor we were during that PSR deadline day has made my mind up that we have to leave SJP behind and build a new stadium. We have to avoid selling our best players to rivals in oreder to generate revenue. Having a stadium that generates income is one of the way to get the club to compete financially with others and I don't see a minor expansion to SJP can do that. Leazes Park or Castle Leazes are just about acceptable locations to replace the current site for me. Hopefully, who our owners are, and even with people.like Eales from his Atlanta days, we'll not get a typical modern stadium but get something really, really top class that the we have not seen yet on our shores. Better than even Spurs' hopefully.
  2. The pads man. Keeper kits back then were awesome. Think several are somewhere in my attic.

    Appologies if this has been posted somewhere already or it's a bit late from May. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/videos/c0v02xj9e73o Interesting insights on how Real are generating income by not only football means but other sources as well. Also, just like us, there obviously those in their fansbase who don't like the modern stadium or the looks of it etc2 but fans are accepting to move with the times, they had to out aside some hisotry and heritage regarding the stadium. Having a roof there seems to make the atmosphere better it seems. Wonder if we would ever consider that. Anyone think PIF may have ambitions like this for us?
  4. Read somewhere it costs £120. Not sure if thas the normal version or the player version though.
  5. who has the bigger balls wins it.
  6. England would probably win the World Cup with Howe but I'd rather see him be our manager and win a trophy with us instead of for England. I don't want to see him disturbed and assaulted by the media, pundits, and the rest of the football world if he doesn't win England the World Cup or or even struggles at international level. Just stay here Eddie. You're already loved for what you have done, could make so many new memories too.
  7. I've got a West Ham pre-season match on my screen right now. Honestly, can't wait to see us playing again. Absolutely done with internationals.
  8. Really hoping for the original cream colour to replace the white. Would make it slightly better.
  9. Saw him as the first player off the plane after Southgate. A good 5 minutes before the rest of the players came off. The rest came down in a group. He came off alone with just some backroom staff. Probably looking too much into it but unless he was seated near the exit, a bit weird he got off it early and separated from the rest. Trippier got down a proper 10 minutes after him and after the group, in sunglasses.

    Yes fans can have say in what they want and what should be preserved but if sticking with that mentality, we'll never get anywhere, no matter how rich our owners are.

    SJP needs to get ready for the next Euros. Surely we'll need to start doing something soon if there are any plans to upgrade or build somewhere else? 4 years ain't that long. Or we can just keep it how it is (or however it will look like after anither 4 years).

    Copa America

    I have a feeling that the US will want Messi to be part of WC2026. Not long to go either. He'll still be there in the MLS in the meantime and probably get paid loads to hype up the tournament. Only question is, will Argentina continue to call him up if his form dips to a point that his selection would be questioned?
  13. He doesn't need to play. Just get him around players and coaches that love him for his confidence, let him get that rotten month he's had with England out of the system. Like someone said earlier, hopefully he's hungry and motivated and not let the Euro fiasco knock him down. Trips can stay home all he wants.
  14. Didn't wor Anthony come back for pre-season training from the U-21s Euros earlier than expected after playing and winning the tournament? Wonder if he'll come back soon before the other international players seeing Southgate used him for fuck all and knowing the lad himself is a workhose and has that psychology of player who doesn't like to stop and put his feet up?
  15. Ahh..thank fuck we have our club back. 2021 lost to Italy and had Steve Bruce's Newcastle coming up for the new season. Now, forget the Euros. Eddie's Mags title challenge journey is about to start!!!!

    Copa America

    Might as well play the match in four quarters and have a full blown fucking half time show. Fuck knows what they have planned for 2 years time

    Copa America

    Cancel the game. Give Canada the winner's trophy. Strip the US as the World Cup host. Move it to Waka Waka.
  18. I got the home shirts for my kids the other day with name and numberings on the back. After looking at it several times up close, I can't help wonder would it have been better if the blank back was black instead of white. Would probably have made the numbers and letters look more like stripes and us looking less like Fulham. Not good with photoshopping so no idea how it would acfually look like. Still shit compared to striped back of course.
  19. Sorry just to ask. Are the players back for training yet?
  20. If this.means we are getting good news regarding investments into.the club like stadium redevelopment or something, then so be it. Will forever be grateful to her for what she has done to save the club. It is now time for us to grow and she can now sit back and enjoy it as a fan too without affecting her financial and health side hopefully.

    St James' Park

    I juat watched a bunch of videos of Everton's new stadium. Yeah, the stadium design itself is nothing that we have not seen before but the location itself is going to be something nice, especially night games. Which broght me to think of SJP. Cathedral on the hill, dead center, surrounded by the entire city, night games have always been special, both to the match going fans as well as viaually on TV when there are aerial shots of the stadium. Then when I thought about it, if Option C was not going to happen for us, and we would have to move, which other location would get an aesthetic feeling similar to SJP? The arena site would have been great. Imagine a 5.30 kick off with the sun going down, aerial shot of the stadium with the bridges in the background would be visually stunning as would a night game too of course. I can't think of any other site apart from that and also our current one that would give you that special feeling for night games.
  23. Think he'll be a massive player for us this season. Possibly signing of the summer. He's had 1 year to settle and adapt in a new country and environment. Most likely has been readied in training to adapt to what Eddie wants him to do and fit into the team. You could see when he did play last season, there were things he need to adjust and adapt to plus his own personal issues could have hindered how he performed. Now that all these issues are behind him, he can really put his footdown and do what he does best. Influential player to the team if Eddie plays him right. Can't wait to see the real Sandro playing for us.
  24. My first thoughts, "are they wearing the same kit from last season or a season or two ago?'
