Nine - Grant off injured with all subs used apparently and then the Adekoya red card, two yellows and he'd only been on 20 minutes.
Hadn’t seen he didn’t come back on and it was right in front of me. Tough one then.
Much better team, I thought. Scoreline harsh.

Putin raging about the “ new” F-16’s which UKR will soon have in service . Not about the actual planes but he’s stating any non UKR take off for these planes on missions would class said country as a “ target” . He’s actually got a reasonable point tbf .

There's a car park on the left just before you get there. There's one inside too but not always spaces available. I'm expecting, hoping, the game will be on the top pitch given I've then got a rail to lean on even if you can't see part of the pitch for the dug outs. Thanks Tony. I’ve just checked o...

this is the biggest thing on this thread, the rest is just (excuse the pun) noise. It's staggering how the club aren't getting the basics right.

If we saw more of the ball and had a stronger midfield there’s no doubting he’s a great player. Agree with others that he doesn’t put enough of a shift in but his main weakness is that he’s not strong enough.
Would love to see him destroy the Championship next season.

There is certainly an argument to say that it has been underpriced previously, i just don't see the value in gaining an extra 500k or so at such a PR cost. Maybe they are chasing more one off visitors with a higher spend and need to p!ss off regulars in order to free up space? I don’t agree with an...

Even if we stay up and over 19 games there isn’t much more difference at £3.63 £6.58 £16.53
Fail to see how anyone could argue that’s anything but exceptional value for Premier League football tbf.

If the DD is set up over 10 months instead of the 12, then the increase will seem bigger. We are getting hit from all angles. Increases in utilities, council tax, car insurance etc will factor in whether people can stomach a massive increase. If there’s no valid reason for the delay in announcing, ...

Agree on that point. Torn as to why they wouldn’t want to do that - partly plays in to a theory they’re just late and have no excuse/reason to explain the delay, but equally maybe they just can’t say why at this point.

Really poor this isn't it? Expect a lot better from the Club. This doesn’t impact me as I don’t pay by DD, but I will reserve judgement until we know the reason.

Looks a player to me. Even accounting for the age gap he looked quick, real turn of pace on him.

As far as the badge goes, I very slightly prefer the current one to the previous one. I have issues with both designs though.

Umbro could/can be good (think that 79/80 shirt) The training gear and GK shirt selections being stock for multiple clubs is a bit lame though isn't it?
