  1. Sorry it wouldn't let me edit earlier posts
  2. Sorry to hear that. I have mentioned it before in this thread. Robertson was actually saying the other day that some of the players have been in a bit of state before games
  3. You often hear "why don't they give x manager a go?" about some lower level coach when a big job is available. But then this can happen. Frank still thinks he's the Brentford coach. They're playing for set pieces. Its a good job for them that Vicario is quietly having a good season. Chelsea could have whacked 5 past them the other week
  4. Man utd's priority was a central midfielder and they couldn't afford one because Mbeumo ended costing more money than they thought he would. I agree with the premise though. Liverpool's business was bad. They needed to replace what they lost, but they ended up panicking. Why sign Isak after Ekitike? Frimpong and Kerkez is silly. You can't play both of them in both of those examples, so they are just paying for a good bench. Kerkez or Frimpong playong just unbalances the defence completely. They are wide open. Surprise surprise they win and keep clean sheets against Real and Villa with Bradley and Robertson at full back. Wirtz is definitely vanity as mentioned. He's a quality player, but similarly with Simons at Tottenham, they want to take too many touches. Liverpool's attack never wants slowing down. They are already slower going forward with Trebt because their outball was often the forward pass from right back over Salah
  5. Yeah for sure... My Nan had a season ticket in the bottom of the west stand in the 90s. The back row in fact. Sometimes stuff used to fall on her from above just because the away fans would drop their drinks etc by accident. And yeah away fans were sometimes arseholes too. One year the Liverpool fans were pretty vile. But I can guarantee you she would be sat there on sunday if she was still alive. She loved that seat, as it was where her dad used to take her when she was a young un.
  6. And we need it. Cut our nose off in the end
  7. Not everyone will be taking a kid. You know what i mean Yes they're idiots, but there have been measures put in place. Its pigs with x number of loyalty points, not half the Cricketers. And you can go to a gig in a field and have pee thrown at you, and it doesn't put many off. Its a bit crazy if people aren't going because they are scared of a few pigs
  8. Its not compulsory to take a kid Unless Steve Backley is a pig, i think you'll be grand tbh
  9. If people can't put up with some angry pointing maybe the derby isn't for them tbh. Wicked is on at the Odeon
  10. Its not disappointing. Its just concerning that people don't want to take these tickets when the club is in the mire. The club couldn't do anymore to get people in. The fans are currently the only source of income, regardless of whether the team is rubbish and how many points it is adrift. There has been a huge push by many fans, a great effort, but some seem quite happy with waiting for some hypothetical billionaire to show up and bail the club out. Then they'll go when the team has won 3 Champions Leagues, its warm, there's no Bonfire night, the pigs above them throw bouquets of roses. If people aren't bothered about going now the bat sign has gone up to save the club, when will they go? Anyone can fill a stadium with tourists in the PL, the club won't need you if that happens
  11. Why not? maybe one like that crocodile one in Turkey, but a giant owl sat down on a nest
  12. Villa redeveloped a stand for £100m. I bet the Zaragoza stadium comes in at well over that. Everton was supposed to cost £500m and cost £800m
  13. Yeah for sure. Our record revenue is about £26m. A new stadium would cost a minimum of £250m if it was to be bigger than Hillsborough. Its a pipe dream sadly
  14. I would be amazed if a new owner built a new stadium in this climate. Only an idiot would part with that sort of money (plus all the rest of the moneythey would need to get us to even be competitive in the Championship). Also no public money on the table. If we end up with americans they generally don't invest that much cash and look for a quick sale. Birmingham being the exception, where they stand to earn quite a lot of money renovating a huge portion of the city. Americans always want their money back, they don't throw free money around
  15. Its a lot of money to invest without any chance of any public money to take the edge off. Any potential plan of midtable PL obscurity is a long term plan. We're looking for a unicorn Yeah no-one said Jordan is biying anything, I'm saying i wouldn't trust his judgement. He's paid to talk a lot on the radio, and the key is "ex-chairman" or maybe failed is the better word
