  1. They had the new stadium built around the time they got relegated. Couldn't really afford it so it got bought by the council? Or was it Isuzu/Ricoh? Then rented to them, to keep them running as a club. Then they couldn't afford it so they got kicked out and had to play at the sty and Northampton. Then London Wasps bought it? Or moved up to Coventry and used the stadium, then they went the same way? It's one big cluster ****. There's a casino, and big shopping park there as well. The theme park from the Dr would have been nothing short of an absolute disaster!!
  2. Be a bit like Coventry's stadium. Plenty of empty blue seats for years to come.
  3. I dunno. The Bernabeu is exactly that. Admittedly they have more money to throw at it and the president also owns one of, if not the biggest construction company's in Spain. But I take your point gigs aren't going to be bringing in a massive revenue stream for us.
  4. Especially when the bottoms of the boots have the ridged plastic frame on them.
  5. It really is. Much prefer the current shirt. Probably $150 CAD. I really like both England shirts, except the stadium away, the texture looks quite a bit different to the pro vesrion. So I'd like to see it in person before I pur-chase it.
  6. That's the one! Sorry @HanoiVillan for repeating what you basically said!!! Maybe Jurgen needs to play it to help him relax
  7. This is good to know. I'm going to my first game since a pre season friendly against Fiorentina in 2009!
  8. Is the Salifou stand infront of the theme park!?
  9. Quite the comparison. Emma Willis in a Villa shirt and some random crying blues fan, along with an old lady who looks like the merch shop threw up on her
  10. The card version of the game lasts about 20 minutes and is alot more fun and interesting!! I've always thought he comes across as a well rounded guy. With these odd outbursts every now and again. I'm not sure if it's just him worn out and wanting to take a break. Or whether he's always been like that.
  11. Well this sub has taken a dirty twist !!!!
  12. The away stadium shirt is a little different in terms of texture. It's pretty obvious, but still really nice. This is one set I actually like for a long time.
  13. I've thought that as well!! Nice shirts Dom_Wren
  14. If it's anything like the bias on FC24/Fifa 24. Everytime I play Man Utd they get all the referee decisions and I even had Rashford two foot tackle my defender, and nothing! I know it's a game, but it's funny how realistic the game is to real life! Media are obsessed with them. Let them. Means we go under the radar more. Also more laughing opportunities for us
  15. I don't think they'll ever confirm that sort of info. But anything is possible I guess. I think it's doubtful, but maybe he might come on for 5-10 minutes in a game in the last couple of games
  16. Unibet & 32Red when we were in the championship? I know it was basically the same sponsor but technically two different companies. Unibet on the training gear and 32red on the kits? Not trying to be pedantic either, just something I thought we had done before?
  17. Wait what did I miss? Mowbray isn't managing them at the moment?
  18. Saw Deano on Saturday.....from a far! I'll post a picture at some point. Nothing crazy, but was cool to see him and Westwood. Westwood didn't really do much or have much impact on the game. Our younger midfield seemed to control them better. Wonder strike from Insigne won the game. I enjoyed while I ate my porchetta sandwhich, and a nice beer.....$41 CAD mind you. As OhioVilla says the travelling can be brutal. Add the different pitches as well. Toronto's is proper grass, but some are artifical turf and you can tell some players just aren't the same on it.
  19. Exactly. This is what we wanted (European football, not the injuries!) so we're learning to balance everything.
