  1. Was on at 6pm dead. Tried to buy 5 for our lot, constantly got an error. Now stuck on a ‘we’re looking for the tickets you requested’ screen.
  2. Either it sold out in less than 60 seconds or the site has shat the bed.
  3. My dad and one of the blokes we go to homes with are both ex Northumbria cops; Tyneside Life used to also be one. Apparently he was a huge weirdo.
  4. Not to the levels of that monstrosity.
  5. Our home shirt should never be more white than black. If that has a white plain back as well. Fulham-tastic. I wouldn't mind a derivation from what we usually get, for example I really wouldn't mind a half black half white kit a la that members kit a few years ago. But that mock up is lifting.
  6. The two times I've went to Goodison we've drank in Libpewl city centre and got the Merseyrail over to Kirkdale and had another couple in either the Royal Oak or Thomas Frost spewns. Proper working class (or edgy if that's more apt) feel about it with the terraced houses. Shame that it's losing that.
  7. May have typed a lot more than the average responses to that.
  8. Location is shite apparently; nothing around it. No pubs apart from one which I've been told is a shithole. May be wrong but I don't think there's a Merseyrail (Liverpool's far superior version of our metty) station near it either. EDIT: Am wrong on that, Sandhills is round the corner. Still, though. Nowt around it.
  9. The standard in the Championship these days is shocking. Swear it was a decent a few years ago.
  10. E-tickets a huge cause of this, for my tuppence.
  11. Its been gone over before but our songbook is pretty shite. That the best striker we've had in 25 years only has 1 chant as poor as 'who put the ball in the mackems' net'...tut tut.
  12. There'll be figures and more detail & minutiae that best interpret it but from my POV managers and players have come and gone, some very good ones at that, and they still have consistently failed to challenge seriously for anything. There's only been one constant in that time: Levy.
  13. We never win at Man City Liverpool Wembley so a limp, shit performance is fine imo.
  14. We’ve picked up 1 point at home all season from losing positions.
  15. Didn’t that little rat do it against us as well?
  16. Good save from the fascist there.
  17. It’s for hipsters and stat nonces but xG is a decent metric to use tbf. If your xG is high but the results in games don’t reflect it, it suggests that you create but miss loads of chances and your striker is shit. Vice versa. If across a season you’re losing games on xG but you’re winning games you’re either quite lucky and/or are an incredibly defensive side with a clinical striker. I imagine under Stephen Roger we were losing on xG every week. Suggests that, as was proven, we were fucking shit.
  18. Forest are where they are on merit and are a good side, they must be, but whenever I’ve watched them they’ve never looked good. They did win 7-0 recently tbf but games like Wolves away where they won 0-3 massively flattered them. And we took them apart in the second half at the City Ground back in November; no one since has managed to win there. We need to win for any sort of CL push imo. Lose it and we’ll need to collect 10 more points than them between now and the end of the season to finish above them. Can’t see that happening.
  19. Nah, you're spot on. Benitez's sides put up a couple decent showings in this fixture considering the players that were in them. Shown far more than today's AIDS anyway.
  20. A PSR doing but we've been desperate for pace in defence for yonks, now. We haven't had any since probably Yedlin.
