In the shadow of a better team. Bit like Everton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First game planned was arsenal but the police and council deem it too high risk for an opening game The whole thing is a farce though. S/t holders told they would be in the new stadium when they played Man city months ago Know people who work in building regs who have been to the stadium and say it's an absolute mess. Then you get the usual stories of arsenal fans doing various things to the ground as workers Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably could have been sorted out a few weeks later Not things that should put it so far beyond the target date Levy's excuses don't fit in with the state of the ground apparently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc505 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Karanka gone at Forest, knew he'd not last the season, missed a trick at the bookies there, they'd never be happy with scraping points and wins here and there after the money they put in - rightly or wrongly.

Aye the Boro fan's gripe was that they had quality players capable of playing much better football He went as far as saying he didn't want promotion as under Karanka they would get hammered every week in the prem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That keeper though, dodgy as fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
