    Phew. Worried when I saw a flurry of posts that he'd got injured.

    It's not a computer game lads. The lack of goals in the team dictates relegation scrap. It doesn't matter who the manager is - this teams objective is to survive relegation because the players simply aren't good enough. If we switched managers...

    We're relegation fodder mate. 3-4 years of results don't lie.

    Looking over the whole season it is pretty good. 19 in 11 is mid-table in this time, 9 worse teams on a level with Spurs/Chelsea. Still more worried about the by far lowest scored in the league and lowest points.

    We've scored 7 league goals - the lowest in the league (Luton 20, Forest 17) since we last won a game 101 days ago. Was all for pragmatism/fine margins to keep us in the league, but those fine margins dont happen when you can't score a bloody...

    The mistake your making is trying to apply basic common sense or logic. I look at it from the self interest view of the Premier League. The independent panel are not independent. If the appeal board put the 2 back on, it would make the process...

    We’re “satisfied” with our 6 point deduction though, grateful even. We currently don’t have anyone at the club with a backbone to contest any decisions given against us. The owner doesn’t want to know, the Chief executive quit alongside other...

    Would make an even bigger mockery of Premier League/consistency so it'll never happen

    Didn't expect that. Didn't they get 2 taking off for being compliant? Add them back on now 😂 That'll never happen of course...

    Meant people/ticket holder rather than physical space.

    Anfield already has safe standing licence. A fair few others do as well.

    What's the ratio there? Also think when considering plausiblity - comparisons to Germany don't work - totally different attitude. You can drink alcohol in the stands. Imagine that here?! After you've driven there at whatever speed you like on...

    And that's why I think it'll always remain 1:1 ratio. The government should never allow venues to replace seats for standing to increase capacity. We will indeed. I personally think it was a tad disingenuous tactics to mitigate early day...
  • GrandOldTeam
    It matters a lot mate. Standing areas at arenas etc are managed a lot closer than seated areas. As a quick example - if you lose your standing ticket you aren't getting it reissued. If you lose a seated ticket, you will. No operator will ever...
  • GrandOldTeam
    I know mate, I said if they approve. So if they approve, why did it take them so long? What has caused the ridiculous delay and why wasn't it resolved sooner? It reflects terribly on either 777, or the PL. Who are the ones who are so inept it's...
