I haven’t seen enough of him to comment really, it just feels if he was that bad other teams would have been able to exploit it more than to the point of 9 goals in 26 games.

NUFC email you the tickets to be saved to your wallet, just like a home game, but the tickets are (originally) issued by the home team. But as far as I can tell there’s no NFT involved. I suppose there’s nothing to stop the PL creating something and saying it had to be used by all teams?

I’ve only seen a very limited amount of him, and he certainly doesn’t appear to command his box particularly well - BUT - they’ve conceded 9 goals in 26 games in a very competitive league. If it was as much of an issue as being made out, surely all the other teams would have targeted him in this respect and it would have led to more goals?

If we get anywhere near £8m for him it’s an absolute pisstake and would be worthy of investigation given his age and contract.

Would you not need compliant scanning tech at all away grounds?

Not the one described above though. The whole situation of getting to the turnstile to find you don’t have a valid ticket, sits uneasily with me. If I was trying to come up a better solution it would be something along the lines of being notified the day before or the morning of the game that you have to go to the Box Office for your replacement ticket. If you’re a no show, that’s a black mark against your name and you automatically have to do it for the next away game you attend. Do it again and there’s some sort of sanctions.

Alright, I suppose if he went to Southampton and started banging in loads of goals and looking great, that would probably increase his profile to any potential suitors. I accept that. But if I’m Miggy, am I moving hours away from my family in the hope of doing this at the worst team in the league who keep getting beat 0-5 at home? Doubtful.

Because he’s a known entity. He’s played in the PL and internationally for years. If an interested club have a value of him now, that won’t increase because he plays a few games for Southampton.

The premise of it is fine. But the way they’re currently implementing it leads to instances like has been highlighted here. There has to be a better way. I don’t know what that better way is, but there has to be one. Surely.

No one is gonna increase any offer because he has a few games for Southampton.

He doesn’t need to be in the ‘shop window’, especially not in a team getting howked every week. Any MLS or South American teams know who he is already.

Very much doubt it suits Miggy like.

Inch or two taller than Colwill, who’s listed as 6’2.

His letterbox would be in grave danger.

He actually did the initial injury in the 8-0 at Sheff Utd which was September 23, so he hasn’t played injury-free since then.

Sold out at 22 so not that low really. Arsenal (obv big allocation) has gone down to 6 and Southampton 8.

Apparently they consulted ‘sound engineers’ to design the away end in such a way that it reduced the noise that comes out of it. Don’t really know what they’ve actually done like? Whereas West Ham just howked a massive gap in the middle of their away end to get that effect…

Overall point agreed, but there’s over a week between Arsenal and Wolves, and assuming we make substantial changes for Bromley, everyone should be fine.

Obviously quite funny, but if the boot was on the other foot, we’d be absolutely raging. Occupational hazard of being a London club though. There’s always gonna be fans of away clubs living in the ‘local’ area.

Absolute bollocks he doesn’t get that assist like. Who was he passing it to? Isak. Who did it go to? Isak. Surely irrelevant that the defender got a tiny touch on it first. Like putting every slightly deflected shot down as an OG. I understand (to a point) instances like the Isak worldy ‘non-assist’ at Everton, cos he was probably passing that to Wilson and it ended up with Murphy. But if it goes to the player you’re passing it to…

Yeah, you would be pissed off as the defending team, but if Joelinton was defending in our box and Bergvall smashed it off his arm from a yard, should it be a pen? Of course not. It’s just the luck of the situation, and we’ve benefited today.

Gets them that sweet, sweet engagement…

😂 Aye, true. Interesting that if you look at Leicester under Maresca last season, they were on for some kind of record points total, then had a mad dip to the point it looked like they might completely fuck it. He sorted it in the end, but it took him a good while. That would be a bit of a concern if I were a Chelsea fan.

Aye, that was, surprisingly, quite a physical game. And it pissed down for the most part which always makes it a bit tougher physically. Still, they have much better depth than us, so I’m sure they’ll have a very strong team on Tuesday.
