We are very much the second club in this relationship.
The worst thing about that is we are probably the breadwinners too - cant imagine Roma will make more than we do being a Premier League club. We are Roma's lifeline.
Exactly this. Its a penalty. He shouldn't have tried to block the ball and let the goalie do his job. Soon as he made a movement to block the ball he's bang to rights, doesn't matter where his arm is.
He was desperate to get a block in which is maybe commendable at times but its cost us here.
There were a few very disappointing aspects to that experience on Saturday. I wont bore you with them because they are probably largely the same as everyone elses.
One positive seemed to be the removal of the ridiculous player tunnel. Why did they even bother with that?
Moshiri being lauded as...
Absolutely ridiculous that you have to go through what looks like an emergency exit set of stairs to get to the second floor of the shop.
Im sure it goes up more than one level too.
Why split the shop like that?
Absolutely no planning sense, its like they saw 2 floors were empty and decided...
I hate those retractable tunnels. Reminds me of the Britannia Stadium in Stoke.
I just don't get why? The tunnel was fine as it was and similar to the likes of the Etihad, Anfield, Wembley and loads of others. There wasn't actually any need to have a retractable tunnel there for such a short...
Its a shame, it should have been the grand opening of the stadium, bring out the ex plaers and legends carrying the trophies they have won.
Give a bit of history and sparkle to the new gaff.
Yes. In an ideal world we wouldnt have had to move. And if we had to, we would have gone to a bigger ground. We have uprooted and spent millions on basically getting 15,000 extra seats.
But on the flip side it is exciting to be part of a new generation of fans going to a new ground.
Glad there is a legends game.
I've long said that should have been the opener at the Hill Dickinson/Closing game at Goodison.
My daughter must have passed on the message :D
