    You didn't need us to win tbf. In your position you should just be sitting back and enjoying the scrap <laugh>

    Btw on our fans, they've been tremendous last couple of games. Usually it's the away fans (like at Derby), but the home fans were excellent today. There's something of a buzz about the football we're seeing since Fernandes arrived. The guy is transforming the attitude of the rest of the team.

    Looks like it’s in some industrial estate. I’m sure there are investors snapping at Liebherr’s dangly flaps, just desperate to build a stunning development overlooking the Cemex Concrete plant.

    I think it’s the old red light district. The walk from Southampton Central to the ground isn’t a scenic one.

  7. It’s a good ground with a great newish stadium. As a football venue, you are going to be very hard pressed to find better, for that kind of money.

  8. Yeah, but the scallies of Manchester love them because they built a community centre (or something) and give food to the homeless.

    That statement is 87.6% subjective opinion, and 13.8% utter bollocks <ok>

    Seems a bit high to me, don't think there's any real value in it for anyone. Be better off buying Sunderland.

    The Stadium cost about £35 million to build in 2001 iirc.

    The land was contaminated due to previous industrial use, and not deemed suitable for housing.

    No then. Luckily it cost them £38m and not £250m or they could have ended up looking like Levy, the biggest mug in all of sports history.

    That's a sweepings statement!! Which views of Astro do I share?

    Assuming the one about Pep not being the uber genius the media would like us to believe? Or the fact that, in reality, Man City are currently a tin pot piss poor joke of a football club with ****e supporters, and not in any way shape or form 'massive'?

    Probs both.

    I also don't hate many City, I view them with utter contempt.

    Can't stand Liverpool though.
