Charliesboots Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 16 minutes ago, Southend Blue said: Have Newcastle been relegated ? I don't keep much notice of what goes on in the Premier League - although news got through to our forum tonight that Norwich have gone down. Ok they'll likely take points off us next season, but any misfortune that comes their way is always welcome. There was talk as well here (last looking through the thread) and are Newcastle a big name ? It's dependant on age I think. I'm in my 40's and with that, their best days were arguably too early to remember with names like MacDonald and Milburn for them and it seems for me they've only really come to the fore since the introduction of the 1990's. It's fair to say they're a bigger team than Sunderland or Middlesbrough but their lack of success (their last (real) trophy won was in 1969 if right) dictates they're not on the same level as more established teams you could name or that they have been overtaken, in the true sense. My favourite commentator quote of tonight was "Alex Neil will need a mountain to climb tonight to save Norwich City...however being mostly sea level he will struggle to find that mountain" Very Partridge.

Them and Villa should see us sell out for these games. The largest crowd I've ever seen at Ashton Gate I believe would be against Rotherham when it was close to 21k as there was very minimal segregation and about 20 Rotherham fans. It's very likely we will set a new all seater attendance record next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the plan is to give West Stand upper tier blocks plus away blocks already set aside in the Atyeo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeit they were virtually gone by the time he arrived at the club, if I recall. Nope, Big Sam took over as West Ham manager in 2011 when they were a championship club, he was there from 2011-2015 - he took them up into the premier league and when he left them they were in 12th place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1993 they then started the expansion of the existing stands. I think you should really be looking at attendances vs capacity as the absolute attendances are confusing you.

Their capacity back then was 30,000. I remember this because when Keegan took over they jumped from 14,500 in their previous game to a capacity crowd of 30k for Keegan's first game (Barnsley 3-0?). We played them next I think and got thumped 5-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
