  1. The issue with that is (if reports/rumours are to be believed) that we are very very close to the FFP limit, and so cannot spend anymore even if the owners were willing to pump in cash.
  2. ... based at a desk in Liverpool, and reporting for various local newspapers (all owned by Reach publishing) for different parts of the country.
  3. 17 more points needed to get to 38 points which is fine most seasons. 16 games left, which split into 3 groups. Leicester, Chelsea, Liverpool - probably 0 points Everton, Arsenal, Man Utd, Spurs, Wolves, Crystal Palace, Sheffield - possibly 1 win, 1 draw, 5 losses from these 7 games Newcastle, Brighton, Watford, Bournemouth, West Ham, Southampton - we need 13 points from these 6 games. Its going to be very, very tight and will probably go down to the last game of the season.
  4. Cub membership does restrict buying tickets in some areas. Not sure exactly where. You can buy a cub ticket and then call the ticket office and pay extra to upgrade it to an adult ticket if that helps in any way.

    The NSWE Board

    The difference being that NSWE have never said they will develop VP. In fact, Purslow has said that they won't be developing it (see redevelopment thread). No false promises from NSWE. No theme park or biggest team in Europe in 5 years either
  6. Thanks for that - it was very interesting to read and i guess i agree.

    Tickets

    Surprisingly lots of tickets still left 2 days after they went on sale to Members.
  8. That's an impressive manager for Everton (based on his past CV).
  9. We were in the bottom 3 teams at the start of the season? Have we stayed out of the relegation places since then?
  10. Trust issues? Do you mean general trust issues after Xia, Wyness, Lerner, etc... or specific trust issues about Purslow?
  11. In the Trinity stand, the new multi-pourer Amstel beer table meant i got served pretty quickly 10 mins before the match started. The little portable kiosk selling bottles of Heineken & Bulmers meant i got my half-time drink quicker than last season as well. I'd put one of these in the A1-2 area as that area is quieter and less crowded than the main area A4-6.
  12. 1 - It was great and added a new dimension to pre-match. 2 - The queues were crazy. i arrived at 6.45 and seemed like everyone decided to do the same. 3 - Need more stalls to dilute the queues. 4 - There probably isn't enough room on the forecourt to cope with more stalls. 5 - The prices were slightly cheaper than i expected (compared to normal DDC). Did Villa subsidise the prices? 6 - Not sure if allowed, but a couple of stalls selling funky alcoholic drinks would be welcome. 7 - Will definitely eat there again, but get to the ground even earlier. At least 2 hours beforehand.

    Uber

    well, its as pointless as tripadvisor ratings, amazon ratings, google ratings, etc. Ingram says he's only used Uber 10 times, so same issue as if you see an Amazon product with only 10 reviews or a restaurant on Tripadvisor with only 10 reviews. Its not a perfect system, but its more useful that not having a ratings system. You'd expect it probably drives up overall standards of drivers and customers behaviour in taxis.

    Uber

    Just like shitty customers do the same to drivers. You're always going to get shitty drivers and shitty customers who abuse a ratings system. As you have more trips, your rating will stabilise to reality (same for new drivers).
  15. yes i believe it scans the whole ground
  16. So its not free? I need to pay Sky to access this?
  17. Because every premier league match this season (from game 1 to game 38) all need to be played like cup finals.
  18. Good possession and keeping the ball in their half. Nice start.
  19. I am interested, so thanks for keeping us updated.
  20. If you ignore strikers from the usual 'top 6' (as they would be expected to score many more goals), and look at the best of the rest... Pukki (Norwich) - 6 goals, 2 assist Vardy (Leic) - 6 goals, 1 assist Wilson (B'mouth) - 5 goals, 0 assists Wesley (Villa), Haller (West Ham), Ings (S'oton) - 4 goals, 1 assist Barnes (Burnley), Wood (Burnley) - 4 goals, 1 assist. Wesley is doing fine compared to the rest.
  21. I was very pro video assistance for many years before VAR. I'm now very anti-VAR. I'm not sure if its because this implementation of VAR is so bad, or if video assistance is actually impossible to implement well.
