Anyone know the number by any chance?

CaptainKirk

I haven't been down there since before the work started. The situation might have improved by tomorrow night, but looking at those pictures it looks like a nightmare after the match and positively dangerous.

CaptainKirk

Still nothing.
Time to get worried yet?

CaptainKirk

Am I in time to join this?

If so:

Burnley 1 Man City 3
Haaland 18 minutes

Put me in the Premier League if you like!

There’s not really anything to worry about is there because the worst case scenario involve you having to pop into the ticket office before the game for a replacement match day ticket.

Seriously????
Have you seen the queues for that place before a game?

Remember when people kept saying “season doesn’t start for 3 weeks, relax”.
I am now down to 3 days - when should I start to worry!

CaptainKirk

Can anyone explain the "Season Handicap" bet to me on that link?

The sentimentality of the mind that leads people to invent religion probably will never be extinguished from the human mind. It can be moderated and sublimated if handled carefully, and in secular environments those feelings are usually channelled into something else. That primitive sentiment finds...

Did I miss the transmission? When did you watch it? Apart from that, what is your problem? It’s looking like a documentary about our Club and it’s owners. Some of them may be Mormons - so what? I have known one or two and they all seemed like reasonable people to me. You would have to be a little st...

I'd 100% read a book that is a deconstructionist exploration of football. Microdose some acid while reading it, you'd end up looking at positions on the field as less a role in the 'real' and conventional sense of the word, more a categorical construct, because you've shattered the idealism upon wh...

So many people are let too often by the more primitive and base parts of their brains. Someone does something, or something happens which tickles another person's mind, they see something which provokes them into laughter or amusement, and the momentary happy experience of this leads them to the in...

WOW Just logged in for first time since yesterday and saw we had 3 more pages. We must have signed somebody good??!! No. Just 3 pages of d**k swinging and arguing - again. Tella is someone I would love to see back here. He is not Liam Robinson (sorry Liam) but he is not Ronaldo either. If VK wants h...

Another dynamic I’m interested to seen at Newcastle is how long Pope can last the pace. I think that now they are CL there could come a point where they need a ball playing keeper and the pressure will build. Just one to keep an eye on.

They can have one of ours for £50m

CaptainKirk

One more season to go then.

Me too join the oap club

I know I could ring the Club but thought I would ask here first - what is the qualifying age for an old codger ticket (presumably 65) and does the month you turn old have a bearing in relation to this Season?

CaptainKirk

If you had told me after the last game of last season that we would start our Premier League campaign with a team significantly weaker than then I would have laughed out loud. Who has ever done that after a promotion? There may well be a few weeks to go but then people say the new signings would nee...

That's Albufeira, Algarve...overlooking Fisherman's Beach.

That’s just down the road from me.
Which one is he - I will go and ask him if he has signed yet.

CaptainKirk

I tend to dip in and out of this thread to check on transfer news. Would I be right in saying that, since the end of the Season we have lost Tella, Maatsen, THB and Barnes and have Beyer coming in plus a couple of lads for the future. So, clearly, we are much weaker now than last Season. Roll on the...

I meant where had “that “ article come from,don’t try to make something out nothing ,and stir **** up.

Unfortunately, there are some on here who like doing just that.

CaptainKirk

Count me in, please.

CaptainKirk

Simple; the fans have to be noisy, and be horrible to opposing players. You scream at them when they come near to you. You make them not want to go towards the fans to collect a ball for a throw in or a corner. Anything which causes them to lose focus for a minute or two. Be a right set of horrible...

CaptainKirk

Some decent ideas here and I am all for improving the atmosphere, but don’t think for one minute that any of that will put Harland, Kane , Salah, etc off their stride!

CaptainKirk

Sorted.
Cheers chaps/chapesses

CaptainKirk

Not flown from here before.
Any recommendations on the best parking options as there seems to be a few choices?

CaptainKirk

Poor game, we would take either of these.

CaptainKirk

You guys

CaptainKirk

Not sure if I have done this right!

CaptainKirk

Just logged back in. Thanks for the replies, much appreciated.
Apologies if I upset anyone, never saw the deleted reply!

CaptainKirk

Morning chaps,
I have a flagged area that is in need of a few rebedding and repairing and the whole area needs repointing.
Anyone out there know any recommendations for this type of work, in the Pendle area?
Cheers

CaptainKirk

Size of what?

CaptainKirk

Not sure why anybody cares?
Whoever supplies the shirt will make it in some Taiwanese sweat shop for a fiver and they will then be sold to overweight middle aged blokes for £60 .

So we are using £13m plus yearly running costs from our promotion gains to buy ALK a new club?

Whose promotion gains?

The sooner we get rid of the Big 6 the better. Let them go and play each other every week. The rest of us would be left with a much more competitive League (with the top 6 of the Championship brought in). Obviously, the TV money would go down. All this would mean is players would have to get by on, ...

Just logged back in and see there are a few responses.
It wasn't meant as a dig at H & M (not this time anyway).
My main point was not really about Harry but rather about "car chases".
It is only a chase if the first vehicle makes it one. Go drive normally and everyone walks away fine.

CaptainKirk

Only read the bare bones of this story but I always end up wondering why it becomes a chase, rather than a drive? If Diana and Dodi had got in their car and driven home safely in Paris they would have been followed and some pictures would have been taken and then they would have arrived at their des...

I am guessing at a ruthless half a dozen out and the same number in ( and the incomings will be total unknowns to all of us, apart from the resident experts who will profess to know all about them of course).

Also, how about no THB and bring in Kalvin Philips instead on loan?

CaptainKirk

I dip in and out every now and again and I keep seeing Spiral saying he has said all he has to say and will leave it at that. Next time I log on he has swallowed another dictionary and is arguing the toss again?

CaptainKirk

Thanks for the memories and good luck.
Aye, aye Ashley!

Surprised there's not a thread on the accounts, but looks like a £36M profit which would have been a £3M loss except for player sales. But of course, player sales is part of the model! Refinanced the loan to a UK company at 7.5%. Guess someone is writing a much longer thread with more knowledge tha...

What actually is a “soulless corporate bowl”?
A brand new, 25,000 seater, with all the bells and whistles in and around a new venue sounds great to me.
Much better than the rickety old eyesore we have now.
Good job most of the dinosaurs on here will be dead in a few years.
