    Retro Shirts

    you got that right now prices are crazy.. in the summer of 2014 i bought the 95/97 home medium, on ebay mint condition, like not so much as a stain or snag for around 30 quid.... only thing is that I wasn't the size I was when I was 20, and it doesn't fit, but you wouldn't get that Jersey for less than 80 quid now.... been on the look out my self for the 99/01 (with brown ale logo) or the 98/99 away
  2. we will win this 2-0, 7 games unbeaten and up to 14th .... Eddie Howe's Black and white army!!!!!⚫⚪⚫⚪

    St James' Park

    couldn't we just follow the plans shepherd had in 07 expand the gallowgate even keep his plans with a conference centre etc.... would do for the immediate future, then the more successful we get we can plan expanding further possibly moving etc
  4. 100% was just gonna say that but didn't no where to post it
  5. since trippier has gone the whole complexion has changed atmosphere gone flat, players heads have dropped etc gonna be a long half
  6. a win would be massive, 4 points above Norwich with a game in hand... you would never of imagined that after the Watford game, however I would take a point... and the fact villa haven't won here in 17 years scares me
  7. working and keeping up to date on here, everything sounds amazing really need to see this, any 1 know if bt or sky showing any extensive highlights tonight??
  8. this is massive, saying that every game since Brentford seems to be massive...not really looking forward to this, they've a new manager, signed 2 good players, and going by the cup game at the weekend seem to have that new manager bounce....think this is a must not lose rather than a must win tbh and would take a point now 1-1
  9. that's us down now unfortunately, this takeover has made me care again which means my mood/weekend is effected by results which sort of makes me miss not feeling like shite every time we throw 3 points away
  10. have a real love for Hughton tbh, so much so I probably would of excepted him coming back in November when we were looking for a new manager, its the same now with howe tbh, its just so nice when you have a dignified, honestv professional associated with the club
  11. my thoughts exactly, terrible signing, 20 million aswell , fuck me
  12. fantastic signing, what a way to kick off a new era
  13. was physically shaking when that pen was being taken, can't remember honestly the last time i was this nervous watching us
  14. don't know why but I fancy us tonight, only the 2nd time this season i think we'll win, the 1st was that 2-2 against Southampton... think they're will be plenty of goals 4-2 us

    Gary Speed

    genuinely can't believe its been 10 years since his passing... remember that 24 hours so vividly,I was only 17, his appearance on football focus ,always remember my da commenting on how well he looked and 'what great shape he was in. We drew with man utd at Old Trafford was a 3pm KO and I went into town to do a bit of Christmas shopping..... Will never forget the next morning was at mass, came back and had a text from my mate saying 'Gary speed is dead' I remember texting him back something rude back, because I didn't believe him, I remember at that particular time there was a lot of false rumours about celebrities dieing, a week or two before this day the same mate told me dougal from father Ted was dead, which was obviously not true.... however he replied 'its true suicide its on the BBC website' remember running into the living room and sticking the ceefax on, will never forget the feeling when I seen the headline...
  16. exactly, reading through this thread wondering why people fancy us ? loving the positivity, and Long may it continue, but we aren't leaving the Emirates with any thing other than a defeat, think well give a spirited performance and encouragung at times but 3-1 to them
  17. mate get a size bigger at least, usually a large in football jerseys, got the home jersey after the takeover in a XL and I could even of done going XXL lol
  18. I've actually got butterflies watching that and I've no idea why ?
  19. 5 months till June 22 ? then 2 years ?
  20. give what time ? clearly state that I will get behind the manager/board/team... just stated that his record the year Bournemouth went down was really really bad and maybe a cause for concern ? no doubt a step up from our previous manager, but 48 hours after it was thought a serial winner like emery was coming i do feel slightly underwhelmed.... do not want to come across as negative at all and sorry if I do. As I stated twice now fully 100 percent behind the manager, board and every one else involved with the football club
  21. don't know how to feel about this appointment tbh, if this was 2 months ago before the takeover and with Bruce in charge I'd probs be delighted... but with the takeover and current circumstances I do find it very underwhelming and it is hard to get excited about this appointment.... you cant undermine what he achieved at Bournemouth, taking a club from the bottom of the football league to the Premier League in 6 years is very impressive, and the fact he established them as a Premier League outfit is equally impressive, it is his last season in charge that scares me, they were Terrible, didn't they lose like 21 out of 27 matches ? that's a ridiculously bad record Steve Bruce levels of bad... and he was well backed to with funds, I really can't see how he's gonna set us up to grind out results to keep us from being cut adrift before we can buy players in January..... we really do need a DOF/SD/ Chief Executive or some one who has a footballing brain making decisions, because as good as the new owners are, this process has shown that they haven't got great footballing insight, never the less I will get behind Howe, the new owners and the team ⚫⚪
