Popular Post CosbehFox Posted 15 May 2023 Popular Post Posted 15 May 2023 Answers from Bournemouth's American owner about redeveloping their stadium And everyone knows the words! But getting back to what you can do at Bournemouth, when you bought the club there were some over here who said “he does know about the stadium, doesn’t he?” You did, of course, but what is the plan? Foley: Obviously, it is inadequate. It’s too small and we don’t have the right hospitality assets. We have 13 or 14 suites but we need 30, maybe 33. We can sell them — our pre-game meals and bars are packed. We really have two choices. We still have five years on our lease at the stadium. The South Stand is a temporary stand, so if we wanted to renovate the stadium we could tear that down and put about 5,000 seats down there with a two-tier deck and have it wrap around and join the Main Stand. The trouble is, you would then need to build a second deck there and almost push it over the Main Stand, and we’d still be stuck with the concourses and inadequate hospitality. So, the best approach is to try to build a new stadium and to do it economically, spend £80-90million ($99.6m-$112.1m), with the right hospitality and about 20,000 seats. We don’t need much more than that but we do need to open up our ticketing to new fans. They’ve been using a points system until now — you get a point for attending a game — but that just means everyone in the stadium looks like me: old, white guys. We want younger people. The tickets aren’t that expensive but to widen our fanbase we need to expand. We’re very intent on accomplishing that mission. 5

Fox 4 Life Posted 15 May 2023 Posted 15 May 2023 Arsenal play before City, of course they are going to want to keep the pressure on. It's not over until its over, they owe their fans a performance so I see zero chance of them just giving up.

Stinkenzo Posted 15 May 2023 Posted 15 May 2023 Everyone is convinced every commentator or pundit hates their team if someone ever says a bad word about them 😂 Martin Tyler can be a bit annoying but as for people getting annoyed when he doesn't shout after a goal, it's hardly always necessary is it?

Martin Keown complaining about how Brighton celebrated the goals . Is this the same Keown who jumped all over RVN after he missed a late penalty for Man U? 2
UniFox21 Posted 15 May 2023 Posted 15 May 2023 Spurs meant to be wanting to go after Thomas Frank. Frank could be tempted I reckon, especially if there's any suggestion of how long Toney will be banned for. A considerable amount of time and that would really hamper them for that time.

They don’t have the financial clout of clubs like Leeds or Fulham so they’re automatically at a disadvantage. Second season syndrome is a bitch, as Sheff Utd and Leeds found out. With Forest, play-off winners often struggle, and I don’t think Neco Williams or Lewis O’Brien are good enough to offset their largely poor squad quality overall. Bournenouth or Southampton for the third spot, but have seen a few people saying Wolves could be in trouble too. Care to review this post LeedsFox
Facecloth Posted 16 May 2023 Posted 16 May 2023 Of course last nights result sets up the scenario whereby Newcastle lose to Brighton on Thursday, Liverpool and Man Utd win and the weekend and we beat Newcastle on Monday and they end up 5th. Not gonna happen, but I tell you something, I'd love it, love it if we beat them.
The Doctor Posted 16 May 2023 Posted 16 May 2023 obviously missed with the post mortem for that disaster last night but the VAR audio was actually pretty interesting: starting to have this available at the very least post match (ideally live and in ground) is a good step towards transparency that might lower the objections towards VAR as a system 2

But, a massive issue is still the info given to match attending crowds. We were fully in the dark yesterday on the decisions minus there maybe being an offside. Also, why on earth do we get "VAR complete" over the tannoy?

The Doctor Posted 16 May 2023 Posted 16 May 2023 well, at least west ham will be down in 3 years then

I think he would get Spurs playing good football to be fair. The problems would come later.

I agree with the notion he'll probably go somewhere and do well for 2 years, however, Tottenham need a rebuild as much as we do, I doubt Tottenham would give him huge funds either.

People forget for 18 months, despite having a frail Underbelly, we did play some of the best football we’ve seen. It would then all crash and burn, with him being sacked after 2 years. Which is 18 months quicker than we did and should have.
