While we’re just emerging from the cataclysmic Moshiri and Kenwright era which very well could have seen the end of us, RS have nothing but genuine good times and it makes me ill , the karma that that club continues to evade sickens me
Excellent post which I agree with completely. It's the hope that eventually we'll get it right and be successful that keeps drawing you in. I'm liking what I'm seeing from our new owners so far as they are building foundations first rather than...
Tbf. You can build a 60k seater for much cheaper than our 52k stadium. You just have to forego location, design and quality.
I know what I'd rather have.
Their fanbase is strange for a Big Club.
They seem to have always had a core of 30K extremely loyal fans but the fans after that seem a bit hit and miss with their support. Regardless of ticket prices, and how many Semi Finals they've got to...
Finally someone who speaks the truth about Bellingham. He is massively over hyped. He scores spectacular goals occasionally and has a massive ego but as an actual footballer he is pretty limited on the ball. He's not the player you build a team...
Probably. They're going to have to extend the timeline to commemorate our 2026 FA Cup win, first-ever League Cup win in 2027, 10th league championship in 2028, first-ever Champions League crown in 2029, and Lamine Yamal's record-breaking 61-goal...
That the others couldn't clear. The only credible buyers were TFG and MSP, and the only ones with that truly had the means were TFG.
I remember long arguments about John Textor's wealth, now he's selling an appreciating asset (Crystal Palace)...
There is a stadium in Valencia's called the ‘Nou Mestalla’ …which has been under construction since 2007 but remains half-built due to Valencia running out of money.
Construction was halted in 2009, having built only a reinforced concrete...
I think the initial design (and indeed one of the main motives to go to BMD) was for if we'd gotten the Commonwealth games. That would've come with a lot of additional funding. Unfortunately, that got brought forward 4 yrs due to Durban dropping...
Yepp.
They were fuming that Villa got around it last season, they'll hate that now.
But transferring Goodison to the women, makes our women's team have justifiable value now. Very Smart.
I’ll never forget “period of exclusivitygate”
Gives me the heebiejeebies thinking about how close Moshiri was to burying this football club. He stalled for a year to try and get that sale over the line.
