Well at least the official World Cup song isn't that bad, and done by super current musician Will Smith
Labour backs safe standing - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44407450 Think the government scored a massive own goal by rejecting West Brom's proposal, they will either have to do a u-turn now, or we wait until they're out of power.
I think it was always going to get rejected but it has undoubtedly increased the pressure and momentum. Matter of when not if now imo.
They could have been seen as bringing something great/needed to the game but farted around, now its either a u-turn or someone else does it. Hopefully it comes in soon.
Be interesting to see how many clubs will bring it in quite quickly and how it will be priced. To work properly it should be in away end too imo which is why wba's would have been am ideal trial doing the back of the whole stand. That would be easy for us to do too though I don't think we'd be able to increase capacity.
Just seen footage of Spain´s team arriving in Russia for the World Cup. All dressed in suits!! I suppose our lot will travel in awful tracksuits!!
Don't normally agree with sportspeople getting it but it's much deserved imo, not just for his contribution to the game but his charity/Hillsborough work.
On another note, just seen that Sunderland have broken the 20,000 barrier in ST sales... unbelievable support in the third tier
