Two cracking drop goals though

Winstonswhite

Give it 3 games and it’ll sink in who’s who.

4 games and you’ll have an opinion on whose rubbish and whose our first 100 million pound player.

How did Pye get on? obviously interested in what we have coming through as a Left back considering the apparent shortages globally.

He’s been playing left centre back. Good player.

Wonder how many supporters have now joined the £250 queue jumping membership scheme?

About 70 tickets were sold in the presale for Newcastle.

Winstonswhite

I’d say Newcastle on a Saturday afternoon at 3 will be one of the most popular away days, and if only 70 have been sold with the premier membership, there can’t be many people who have taken up the offer.

This. We are nothing more than a glorified shop window.

It hasn’t taken long for the vultures have started licking their chops has it?!

Winstonswhite

The new system was quite rightly brought in to give younger fans more of a chance to legitimately get away tickets.

Winstonswhite

If I was a Newcastle fan I’d be over the moon!

Winstonswhite

It’ll be easier to go in the home end. Don’t think they’ve ever filled their ground and it only holds just over 5k

He’s got more about him than McNeil ,whatever happens this season our young team needs 100% backing.

Strong praise indeed given that McNeil almost single handedly kept us up from Jan 2019 to the end of season as a 19 year old.

Without doubt it was the Alan Pace show. Without the promotion we were in huge trouble and if we are relegated this year we could still be in huge trouble As a lifelong Claret I found it enjoyable but worrying in equal measures. Credit to Pace for appointing VK. Hope it wasn’t beginners look If the...

Been to an Old Firm cup match about ten years ago and it was an amazing night. But went to the San Siro this weekend for the first time and it p!sses all over it.

Winstonswhite

Dyche believed his pragmatic style gave us the best chance of staying up and VK is a lot more open minded. We’ll find out either way, but anyone saying we’ll categorically stay up or down is talking nonsense.

Winstonswhite

So at a guesstimate that’s 2,500 standing 500 seats. Is that enough seats?

I suppose it’s a better scenario than it is currently, where people are forced to stand no matter where their seat is.

As if we won’t struggle enough for Prem league atmosphere as it is . The Longside lower actually gets the noise rippling down the LS and creates far more noise ( when it does ) that the often ( but not always ) sheer embarrassment of the CFS You’re having a laugh aren’t you? I sit in the Bob Lord n...

Winstonswhite

Aye, ok mate. Conroy makes some great points. It’s a massive step up to the Prem and Zaroury went missing at times last season - completely understandable as he’s young and playing in a really inconsistent position. I don’t think he should go on loan though. I think we should have 3 options on each...

Winstonswhite

The City game had tickets go back on sale on Monday (yesterday) - presumably they were all from Season Ticket holders that returned their seats for the game. Might be an indication that seats could become available from two weeks prior to any individual home game but I have no real way of knowing. ...

Winstonswhite

Were there not rumours that Pace wanted to buy Southampton before us. He was critical of their board for destroying their academy as he phrased it. Seems to me it’s a bit of beef between them both- only they know what went on. Nothing to get knickers in a twist about that’s for sure.

Get a grip man

Winstonswhite

No it isnt a ridiculous comment Winstone,it ruined the game from Wigans point of view,it was always going to be a hard task after he sent him off ..The game itself was a great game.. 👍 Looking forward to a great final though 👏 👍 It was a ridiculous comment because as you say, it was a great game.

Wow,another unbelievable semi final with Hull kr winning with a golden point drop goal..Wigan had a man sent off at start of second half. A poor decision,it should have been a 10 minute sin bin at the most.. talk about reffing decision ruining matches.. 😒 It was a 50:50 decision between a sin bin o...

People book pubs to have a party about the gender of their upcoming birth? Seriously?!

Winstonswhite

Thanks for that Chester.

Tuesday was the first time in a long while, that I’ve had my doubts. So I really hope you’re right and we don’t have anything to worry about.

Winstonswhite

Incredible day, Pog made van Aert look ordinary then Vingegaard made it look like he was on an e-bike It is good to know that cycling is much cleaner these days because in the past today's results would have been subject to intense scrutiny After watching Vingegaard ride 10% faster than everyone bu...

I think its the other way round with this one.

So we’re paying them to what, use our shirts in their content? I’d be interested to see how tbh

Winstonswhite

Sorry to be crude, but how much cash are they paying to have their brand advertised on our academy shirts?

Another vote for Banshees. A metaphor for donkey plop.

On returning to Bury in the league cup, Stan said…

“I know we’ll go in as the underdogs. But it’s not the size of the dog that matters, it’s the size of the fight in the dog.”

It doesn’t even seem like that long ago!!

Winstonswhite

a touch of wheels near the front of peleton caused a wave of breaking back through it and Cav near the back crashed down and did his right shoulder (the one he has done before) - had no chance, awful way to go Cheers, would have just “liked” the reply but doesn’t seem apt. What a sh!t way to finish...

The system that could work, is a random 10% of tickets have to be collected at the away ground by the person named on the purchase with ID.

A bit like “scan your own” when at the supermarket and a random percentage get checked.

Winstonswhite

Bloody hell, thought he had it then!

Winstonswhite

So first blood to Vingegaard but a long way to go yet. A big day tomorrow again.

Winstonswhite

Bit of a transitional year this year isn’t it? Get the impresssion they’ll see how Bernals doing then just go for stages when he falls off the pace.

Winstonswhite

Behind the nets is generally inferior but if you’re behind a Benson 25 yard screamer, there’s no better place to be IMO

If I've got this right, If you buy an away league match ticket you get 20 points If you buy a home match ticket for the League Cup, FA cup or friendlies you only get 10 points. You'd have thought the club would want to give home fans the same incentive for paying to watch the Clarets at home You’ll...

I think that he’ll be given the Champs if he hasn’t won a stage by then, the Peloton is a competitive but respectful beast. Cav wont want that though, he will be all out to get it early but I’ve gone for stage seven for his win. Ben O’Connor winner for me (got in At 80’s) with Pidcock top five. Agr...

With all the new signings could easily get 18,000 on paying 25 quid. Thats 450,000 quid. Plus food, drinks, programme, hospitality etc and its half a million in revenue.

I don’t think we’d get anywhere near to 18,000 even if it was free

Major trophies Premier League, Fa Cup, Champions League
Second rate trophies League Cup, Europa League
Minor trophy Europa Conference

And I’d give anything to see us win or get to the final of any of them.

Winstonswhite

I think any European trophy can be considered major Yeah, fair enough. Just seems a bit second rate to me and they’re going a bit OTT. Any club that finishes 7th in the Premier League should be winning this new competition of second rate Euro teams every season from now on IMO, given the wealth the...

Serious question, is it a major trophy?

I was answering a general question. I think that most club owners would do pretty much anything for the right amount of cash. Money talks.

And I’m asking do you think Alan Pace would pay Anderlecht for us to play them?

There's certainly pressure on Man City to win the CL this year because they'll never have a better chance, and if they don't it'll almost certainly destroy Guardiola mentally, if they fail this season. They had a far better chance the last time they were in the CL final vs Chelsea but he messed tha...
