Re: REPORT: Lousy day at the London Stadium
Poor, poor performance, devoid of pace and basic ball control.
I see Lingard is thought to be on way to Sheffield. Not my favourite but would inject some pace and a bridge from midfield to front.

I seem to remember 30K there. Couldn't get in before kick off because of the crush. Finally ended up at the very top of the Bee Hole End.
Could not see the pitch due to the constant crushing, remember looking up to the sky passing out due to lack of air and then coming round again.

Wolves got a point because of their bench being so much stronger than ours.
Our overall spend in 2019 is nil and it showed itself today in those final seconds.
