Nothing in the chelsea game currently on suggests this lad will instantly improve us.

You watching the same game? He’s been quality every time he’s touched the ball.

 What ever happened to goal cam? I used to love seeing our goals from this perspective and the roar of the crowd afterwards. Was it a bit tinpot? 

Compared to our current list of tinpot stuff which includes clappers and light shows definitely not.

Hope we go full strength, in the grand scheme of things I'd rather fvck up Southampton at home than miss out in a visit to Wembley and potential silverwear.

Blackpool away Saturday 3pm I beg.

After one adult if anyone has a reference, thanks.

No one mentioned Konchesky against Wolves yet..

Looking for one adult, PM if available.

I'm after 2 if anyone has a reference please.

Unreserved seating, first time time in years as far as I can remember (apart from Copenhagen and Porto).

The Championship and League 1 grounds where it was a free for a all despite allocated seating were the days. People way too bothered now.

Is the draw tonight?

How many of us went up there ?

Genuine question - why has the Newcastle away end not been moved down to the bottom tier as was the Premier League regulations put in a couple of years ago (that away ends had to have at least 1 section in the bottom tier).

 

I know the initial excuse they gave was that they didn't have time to implement sufficient safety regulations after being promoted from the championship but it's been a few years since then? If anyone knows?

 

Putting that in the bottom tier would make it an unbelievable away

Always thought the same, same for Sunderland also their away end used to be mega when it was the bottom tier.

After a spare if anyone can't make it.

Looks like they are preventing people buying tickets who have not been to a game before. Sounds like 500 points is the equivalent of having attended 5 games

Yeah I though so, makes sense to prevent away fans like me haha but bit harsh on possible new Sheff Utd match go-ers surely?

Out of interest how did you fail? Post code?

Made an account and it says you need 500 loyalty points, looks like you have to buy a membership.

Has anyone managed it?

Tried and failed to sort tickets in the home end, plenty still available anyone know if there's touts selling at Brammal Lane?

We've got Perez, Ayoze Perez

I just don't think you understand, 

He cost 30 mil, 

To boost MIke Ashley's bill,

We've got Ayoze Perez

Massive lack of quality in this game, can't even play hoofball.

Don't want West Brom to come up, but if they do every penny I own is getting put on Vardy scoring at the Hawthorns next year. 

Should've just kept the original, was iconic.

Surely all lined up for Starks vs Daenerys lot in the final episode? 

 

A bad GoT season is still better than the best season of most other shows. Still enjoying it with a feeling of what might have been with the disappointing development of certain subplots.

It's not even bad, it's just so over analysed now because of the hype and popularity surrounding it that people are waiting to criticize it due to the high previous standards.

You may be right, it's plausible to think that this is what the writer's intended.  It's out of character though, not just for Dany but for many of the other characters.  The Unsullied are meant to be disciplined.  There was nothing disciplined about their approach once the bells rang.  It was a free-for-all.  Even Jon's Northmen did what the hell they wanted.  This all came after the Dothraki, seemingly obliterated in episode 3, took apart the soldiers inside the walls.  

 

 

But this is just one aspect of many that brought the episode down.  It was set up brilliantly up until that moment (excusing an OTT Drogon that can obliterate anything in its path, carve up the Iron Fleet, breathe fire so fierce it can not only burn but disintegrate stone buildings and also take out Varys with laser precision), the tension was great, only for it to come crashing down at the pivotal moment.  She'd done the Mad Queen part, she'd won, just go for the Keep and finish it.  But no, we destroy the whole city first - why?

 

Then we have Euron wanting to kill Jaime - why?  He practically does, but then Jaime goes on another famous GoT run of Kings Landing having been gutted twice in the process.

 

Qyburn - I laughed when he was manhandled down the stairs.  Should I have laughed?  I have no idea.

 

The Mountain and The Hound - why?  What is the motivation there for wanting him dead?  Tell you what, let's take The Hound (my fav character) stab his brother in the neck a few times and then go for an eye, before smashing him through a wall into a sea of fire - why?  

 

Random balls of wildfire blowing off here and there - why? 

 

Arya acting all assassin but runs around a lot doing nothing but finds a horse and rides away - why?

 

 

 

Credit where it is due, they set up the episode really, really well but then the execution in the second half was lazy.  Take Cersei as an example, how many lines has she said all season?  Shocking.  

The mountain is the reason for the hound's burnt face, from their childhood together. The whole Hound character is literally in place for the whole series to have revenge on his brother, ironically it happens in fire which is his fear because of his childhood. After he achieves his revenge he has no purpose to live.

Is it a reasonable assumption that a talented 21/22 y o gets better season by season ?  Presumably some are simply faster developers than others and players who are excellent at 21/22 just improve re experience and decision making rather than ability. Of course a v capable coach will help !!

Definitely, the likes of Maddison, Chilwell, Hamza are all talented. Add premier league experience to that talent with a good coach (Rodgers) and you should fulfill these players potentials.
