We seemingly operate at a snails pace, which is a worry in my opinion.

Well that’s shite news if true. I can only assume Fernandez is off to Saudi.

Here for even less time than Ashworth. Do any of these suits stay anywhere for long?

That’s good, but I hope it’s not that one that was leaked in internal memo’s.

That was done by the club but it won’t be that, it was a very preliminarily example. Fans will have the final say. 

I joined the online forum. Long story short they’ve said it’ll be a refinement of the existing one. It wont be a redesign or a circle, they think there’s too many of those.

I thought the duties were only 10% from the UK? Or is this because most of the gear was made in China etc?

Didn’t Bruno say Miley is twice the player he was at that age. I think he will be good enough, as with anything the problem is going to be getting a proper run in the team going forward as our midfield is stacked with quality at the moment. 

Win the next two and I think we’ll do it. Our game in hand against Palace is massive, that’s the game I’m more anxious about, as it’s exactly the sort of game we’ve lost this season. 

Doubt it’ll be 65K. In Mark Douglas’ piece in the i paper a couple of days ago he was saying 68-69K. I’d guess this is  speculation with a kernel of truth thrown in that we will indeed be moving stadiums.

All the details re capacity etc won’t yet have been decided. 

Snap. Nee email, should be pot 2.

I’m in exactly the same boat. Just hope there’s 2-3 together in the lower tier. 😬

I think it’s a bit daft really, as a few people I know just forwarded the email, so it was downloaded with their name on it. It punishes the people who’ve done the correct thing and forwarded it on via supporter number, and in lots of cases paid the price difference from a junior/senior to an adult. 
 

I suppose no matter what they do there’s always going to be someone who misses out. 

There’s a group of us who’d like to sit together, but I think a couple will be in category 3 (due to forwarding their Wimbledon ticket). The only way to sit together is to wait 24hrs and pick seats with category 3, which could be a risk if that’s true. 🤔

Love the black’n’white training gear but it should been that colour in the first place, ffs.

The leaked home shirt is supposed to be based on Northumbrian tartan I assume?
 

Whilst I’m a big lover of Northumbrian tartan, those shirts are bloody awful. 😂😂

They don’t give anything away in this, and I understand them not wanting to give away commercially sensitive information.
 

Look at that arsehole trying to force the clubs hand into buying those parking spots at the rear of the East Stand as an example of that.

Wembley for me was a massive eye opener. As disappointed as I was with the result our support that day for such a big occasion was pitiful. Looking up and seeing the Upper Tier sat in near silence was awful. So far removed compared to our other Wembley appearances, plus Cardiff which was genuinely spine tingling and we went from totally drowning out the Mancs on that occasion to being totally outung by them last year.

 

My one abiding memory of that League Cup final was at HT a yoingish lass going absolutely mental with everyone for not getting behind the team. A truely horrific day all round.

I certainly don’t remember being outsung by Manure fans in the cup final. Their fans were embarrassingly bad that day, most of them fucked off twenty minutes before and they’d won the bloody thing. 

I’m not convinced Emery coming in would’ve kept us up at the time, though arguably he could get more out of this current crop of players. I’m still a huge fan of Eddie and I think he’ll turn it around, as he has always done to date. Are people forgetting we’re fourth in terms of total points since he took over. 

I was hoping the black and grey training gear Howe wears would be released, but no sign. 

I would add I don’t think the board can expect anything more from Howe than 7th, given pretty much every other club around us has strengthened in some way. 

I’m not expecting us to make any further signings this late.
 

I still think we have enough to have a good season (top 6). Provided we don’t pick up too many injuries, and with Botman returning towards the end of the year, perhaps we can add a couple in January.
 

No idea what’s gone on this summer, and it’s galling to have to lose Minteh and Anderson, who’ve both had good starts at their new clubs.

The only real positive is we’ve kept our “Crown Jewels”. 

Watched the press conference and Howe said in answer to one question that he’s building a good relationship with Paul Mitchell, and that there’s a team of individuals working on transfers. Goes a bit against the grain of recent hand wringing that there’s an issue between them.

What worries me is not so much that we don’t sign Guehi, but the lack of any serious news about an alternative. It’s looking like we’ve left this all too late. 

I’d be disappointed to lose him in this window.

“Might be edging closer”.

Reads like total guesswork.

Wouldn’t listen to anything the time waster Edwards has to say.
