  1. Love the fact your son asked what he could do to show support. Good on him.
  2. I suggest you look away when they show shampoo and make-up adverts on TV. You're in for a rude awakening!
  3. Ha. To refer to Brexit, the global pandemic, and the current atrocity of the Russo-Ukranian war, whilst simultaneously condemning a generation that has, and will, probably suffer the most from these three signficant life events exhibits incredible mental gymnastics. Jesus Christ
  4. If anyone has a spare code going, would love to have it, it helps me bring Gate-shy friends to the games!
  5. Idehen looks good doesn't he
  6. Don't get me wrong, S82 are huge contributors to moments when AG sounds good, and looks good with flags etc. but they do sometimes seem to ignore the rest of the grounds attempts to get a 'come on you reds' or similarly widley known chants going.
  7. If you think mental health issues and alcoholism are 'first world problems' I suggest you travel around the world a little more
  8. Nonsense pen. No two ways about it, the ref was sh**
  9. @Davefevs @Monkeh @tin all great points, and you're probably right, there is plenty of example, throughout the championship, of what are expensive loan signings failing to make an impact. I guess the relative poor decision making the club has made in recent year that grates!
  10. I'm not anti-Nige, but the aversion to loan signings does seem a little problematic to me (that is if he really is the one against them, I think we're basing this on one or two interview comments). Forest, and others before them, have brought in some very handy loan signings this year, just look at Djed Spence and Zinckernagal to name just two. I know we may be more tightly restricted on wages and who we can get, but squad depth has been an issue for us this season, so why not bring at least one or two in? The Jan window showed there were enough young prem players available on loan, but we (as far as we know) did not move for any. COYR
  11. Always find it interesting to watch the AFCON and note the many players (especially for the smaller nations) that play domestic football in Africa. I think it's very rare (if ever) these players come directly to England, but many who catch the eye will move over to Belgian, Swiss, Turkish clubs initially, and then, if they do well, move into the bigger leagues. I wonder what young players we fleetingly see turn out for the likes of Mali, Burkina Faso et al. will end up being stellar pros in Europes big leagues in the next 5 years? It's kind of fun to make a prediction on who might make that leap
  12. £10 adults would of seen at least 14-15k in the stands I reckon. Club got this one wrong imo
  13. Something something woke snowflake something something
  14. Remember, prior to the season start Atkinson only had one year of professional football under his belt. He's 23, but in terms of the rigours of pro football experience, he's younger than that. I think he's been good for us this season, not exceptional. He's being managed and selected accordingly by NP in this context
  15. Is this the start of another of Jaoquin Phoenix's 'projects'?
  16. Think women's football is technically great at present, and I'm generally a big champion of the game. Yet I do genuinely think their should be a consideration of smaller goal frames - it just doesn't make sense with the average height of an adult female
  17. Are they? Can't see any mention of students getting tickets for a tenner
  18. I want to caveat this with the fact I'm a Massengo fan, but it's funny what a lot of running around does for fan perception of player performance. Bakinson, I believe, has been far more useful than HNM in recent games, but has got all of the stick. HNM has been positionally poor and pretty wasteful for a few games now. Not unexpected for a young man, especially in a team that hasn't been paying well, but still interesting that he has has near to zero criticism, whilst Bakinson gets pelters on here. Running a lot does not equal good. I often fall into that trap, but it really isn't the case
