Re: Fulham FP H Sat 26th August KO 3pm

Got an email from one of those corporate event companies last night, offering me tickets in club level with the usual entertainment package for £395 per person. :shock: :lol:

They also offered City at home to Fulham for £225.

It took me 0.0001 of a second to laugh and delete the email.

Re: Palass A Mon 21st Aug KO 8pm

Fucking hell if this is the mood on here after 2 wins imagine what it will be like when we lose a game. I’ll have to tap out that weekend because this place will lose its mind. Two ugly wins but 6 points on the board after the first week of the season that included a tough away game at Palace where...

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread

Just goes to show how completely bat shit the market is gone. Here's a guy, who no doubt has potential, but who only broke into the Brighton first team last Christmas, has never payed at the emirates, old trafford or ethiad and has 7 league goals to his name so far in his career. There's a whole lo...

Re: Palass A Mon 21st Aug KO 8pm

Timber would have had Ayew on Toast on the flank. Absolutely, and even Tierney wouldn't have given him an inch. Most of Arteta's recent decisions have been good ones but this nonsense of Tomiyasu at left back is going to cause a lot of pain. Thank fuck it was Ayew and not someone decent! Blimey Ste...

Refereeing incompetence aside, if that's the state of our play against 2 poor teams then it's going to be a long and frustrating season
Unfortunately, the two wins will in Arteta's mind convince him to stick with Partey as a right back and Havertz starting.

Yep, on the money as usual John.

Re: Palass A Mon 21st Aug KO 8pm

Poor performance, regardless of the sending off and I've had it with Arteta. I can't believe how my confidence has evaporated since the Charity Shield, where I thought we played well. The purchase of Havertz was beyond fucking brainless, but beyond that, Arteta has allowed it to completely disrupt t...

Re: Palass A Mon 21st Aug KO 8pm

Absolutely sick to death of Granit Xhaka being his same old anonymous, useless self.








Oh, sorry....it was Kai Havertz.

Re: other matches this weekend

The news this morning is now saying that pubs should be allowed to open up early for the final on Sunday - forgetting the fact that actually not many people are going to be too bothered getting down the pub at 9am on a Sunday morning to watch it! The media are completely terrified of being accused ...

Re: Kai Havertz

Tin Hat firmly On. I think Havertz is going to be a Success with us, give him 2 Months and he will have gelled into the Patterns and Systems that Arteta has in mind and many(*) will be lauding him as a very good player for us. (*) Obviously not those who prefer to whinge & moan about everything...

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread

🚨 Arsenal have entered talks with Nottingham Forest as they try to offload Nuno Tavares. West Ham & Galatasaray both showed interest in Tavares last month. Arsenal are thought to want around £22m if they sell him outright. [@MrDomSmith, Standard] #afc A snowballs chance in hell any of them will...

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread

My early season optimism has taken a battering over the past few days, the injury to Timber is devastating, the blatant corruption on show at old trafford sickened me and the chavs signing every player in world football is wearing me down. Need a pick me up today. I honestly dont understand why the...

I'm hoping this guy will be our new Seamo. I thought initially Ramsdale would be but I have my doubts now tbh. :|
Arteta might not have got him to use him as a Goalkeeper. I am half expecting him to be played as a left-back:wink:

Re: ALL Transfer talk - merged thread

The fact that Gabriel suddenly dropped to the bench for "tactical reasons" after starting 70 odd consecutive league games was a strange one, I wonder if this Saudi interest came to light in the days leading up to the game which caused his head to be turned and that's why he was dropped? M...
