    There was but there was no communication regarding this for a good 15 minutes. So people were queuing up to the bar for ages to be told once they arrived that there was nothing available and they need to find that fountain that is 'over there somewhere'. They also didn't put any cups out initially so those without a bottle had to queue at bar still to get one.

    How hard is it to have sinage saying that no bottled water available and pointing towards different fountains? When we were finally showed one it was hundreds of people to just one fountain - took me about 30 minutes in total just to get some water.

    Shame as its a fantastic stadium but the organisation was amateur as ****. In fairness in other parts of concourse it wasn't as bad apparently so maybe it's just a bit of pinch point in general. There were a fair few very distressed people. I did get an apology from a senior steward eventually.

    As I say reckon they'd have had problems on their hands if that was a Chelsea or a Leeds.

    wish Lampard had kept him. Don’t think he is PL material, but is a very good player. Needed him today.

    Same as last season we've got an incredibly fragile mentality and very rarely respond once things start going against us. Second half was very poor and we were crying out for somebody up top who could hold the ball up. No idea why Adams didn't come on or start. Reckon he might be off.

    Was a good game in general though up until your 4th when it became a procession. The young midfielder we signed from City (45 - Lavia) looks an absolute baller considering he's 18 and it was his first ever league match.

    We are heavily linked with Adams again. Although that's every window so who knows.

    You've got us next week. We WILL give you chances.

    Lol. It would have been carnage.

    I don't understand our reputation. If you give us lager and let us win then we are fantastically well behaved.

    Sickening injury to Godfrey. Would have rather lost 10-0 than see that.

    Feels like quite a big game already. You lot had a good win today but think we'll be pretty close together in the league come May.

    not much in the way of schadenfreude in today's results, most disappointing.
    2 pints does that to Libby these days.
