Not sure which men’s games you’ve been going to for 30yrs mind. Sound like pretty normal fare. As for the game we looked nervous first few minutes. Looked to be trying to play football but the link to the final third poor. 23 still looks the best player the few times I’ve watched them. GK looked very poor. Surely you just need to scout someone tall and train them when it comes to women’s GKs. The one position that let’s the game down badly at all levels.

Shame we didn’t gamble on Paqueta at the height of the links/talk. Him and Bruno clearly on the same wavelength.

Interested to see who wins the midfield battle.

I did warn you… 🤣

I know @M4 would snap your hands off for the Spurs tickets if they become available separate from West Ham.

Top 5 id say… 6th at worst. Wasn’t given enough time and took over when club was skint and power struggle post KK. 1. KK 2. EH close second and can see him surpassing KK. 3. BR 4. Rafa 5.CH/KD 6. KD/CH

I’d like to think I’m quite a respectful person and also not some one who seeks fancy pubs with Beehive, Rose & Crown just as agreeable to me than any when in Toon. So with that in mind I just want to say from my very short visit to Luton either side of our match I found it an absolute shit hole…

Did anyone in the UK get tickets for the tournament? I know dozens and dozens who tried for loads of games both ballots and returned the grand total of zero tickets.

It’s quite an easy drive actually. Did it for the league game. You are off the M1 before it starts to build up for London. I set off around 8am from Gateshead for our 3pm KO and that was the Saturday before Christmas too. Just coasted all the way.

I wasn’t disappointed with that season also. Especially after losing Shearer and Ferdinand on eve of the season starting. Thought we did well after the gut punch of losing the league also. Just like this team has had to with PSG away and Chelsea away and the away draws all round. Nothing has been kind to us this season but as EH says and I agree with him. This season will make us all the stronger going forward. The only disappointment I have of this season is of the fans moaning about the season.

The opening vision statement is interesting and should be shared more widely. Especially those thinking they will bin of EH after this season. They seem to have a very sensible plan regardless of all the roadblocks getting chucked our way.

This… Not very patriotic at all but bonkers decision by whoever signed it off and would imagine most countries would have an issue with it. The price is sickening too.

Champions League football for first time in 20+years. First FA Cup QF in 20+years. Carabo QF. Still in a strong position to finish where I expected us to with a full squad never mind one decimated by injuries (6-8). What you unhappy about? UCL we were cheated out of qualifying for to an extent, Carabo we were a tired mistake in last minute from going to SF and likely final. FA Cup we were knocked out by the best team currently on the planet. I’ll be a bit disappointed if we finish 10th or below but still 10 games 1/4 of season to go.

Where are Hashtag based out of interest?

Yep. Whoever is promoting this game has given very little thought to if that is the case. Along with location and transport.

I don’t know. The way the season has went would be just our luck if he is.

We’ve got Murphy. Has looked good the couple of short appearances I’ve seen of him. Maybe we will just promote him.

Missed opportunity I feel. Club could’ve tested the waters with one or two coaches at a sensible price.

Opposite side though surely?

On a weirdly positive note. Might force the club to get a top end replacement WITH pace this summer. I knew he was done for the season as it happened. Hope he come back to his original self as he’s never been the same post first injury.

Was screaming for him to come off before the corner. Of course it him who then proceeds to jump to head the ball away and land on it again. Love the players commitment to the cause but they need to be a bit smarter and get the trainers straight on when needed.

Reading the last few pages. Never known so many worriers 🤣

Has the club not offered any travel packages for this fixture?

You name it we could host it with a new stadium. All UEFA Finals. Brazil friendlies. Final and later stages of any Euro’s. Don’t think so parochial. There’s a bigger plan to all this with the Saudis backing the ownership group.
