  1. Yeah, we’re doing well given the start. I just wish we could have seen that Liverpool game out. I still think it’ll be a push to make top 4 given the number of games and accumulation of injuries we’re bound to pick up but this team just keeps proving people wrong!

  2. Aye, it's not a job for a young manager like Howe, it also has the potential to ruin your career early.

     

    Southgate's got the job & is delighted to be in it as he isn't getting a better one. He's a smoggy level manager which no top half Prem club would go near.

  3. He’s entitled to his opinion without people getting so upset about it, or it being even remotely considered controversial. 

    Female pundits have not lived the same experience as the top level men when offering opinions on men’s football. The same could be said for men commenting on the women’s game.

    The passion doesn't seem to spurt over in a positive way anymore though

     

    Passionate fanbases stand shout and sing

    Ours sit and whinge and cry on the internet

     

     

     

    I think this is more of an ‘internet’ thing. Most people you speak to in and about the city are perfectly realistic in expectations and very happy with how things are progressing. 
     

    I read about all this negativity online but I’m not seeing it. 

  5. I still view it as a progression. Loads of teams will go there and get pumped.
    Personnel is still the key factor, their quality playing it out from the back is outstanding. Defensively we were excellent but you can see a gulf in quality when our back line is pressed high up the pitch as opposed to theirs. In my opinion. 

  6. The club know they can sell the tickets ten times over so they’ve little incentive to treat people fairly - other than bad PR perhaps. 
     

    Arsenal operate a similar system apparently. They may have just looked at what other clubs do and copied/pasted. 
     

    I don’t see why it would be so difficult for them to add a ‘category select function’, so people who only want the cheaper tickets can specify so when they enter the ballot. 
     

    I reckon they will do something to be fair, they’ve responded to criticism pretty well up til now?
     

     

  7. Remember him being very pissed off at the media linking the job to other managers and him referring to Howe as "that fella who got Bournemouth relegated". Find it very difficult to believe that's true.

    Is there anything on record regards their plans for us, and what happens if those plans change? It seems we have a lot of supporter representatives getting chummy with the face of the ownership, not so many actually asking questions and clarifying their plan here. Should this not be what the Trust are for?

    Purely speculation but if they did for some reason decide to sell, I’d imagine PCP and the Reubens would look for another suitable partner. I think we all know that isn’t happening of course - why flog their stake now when they could in the future for a much larger figure. You just need to see the increase in Forbes valuation in 12 months.
