    Nah, looking forward to the move. Stands have a steep rake and will be able to get to the toilet at HT. with any luck we will have a PA system like Liverpool use to pipe the songs in.

    Will they also load up the PA system with boos so at least it sounds like the majority of the fanbase has stayed to the end?

    Yeah fancy us to finish dead last. Not this manager’s fault. We got a new CEO yesterday who said no signings in this window and this squad is dire. Teams around us strengthening.

    The only thing in our favour is we have to play pretty much all the dross at home still. Three home games in a row now and if we don’t get 5 points minimum I’d say we’re done. You can see it in the players’ faces. No bollocks in this squad at all. We should have dropped last year

    I hope so, will be a small stand for the 6-7 Newcastle fans setup so they can buy an inflatable dinosaur too

    Steep rake helps but won't replace the intimacy of an old ground. It'll be nice and shiny I'm sure but some of your soul will be gone forever.

    Yeah if you're not making any signings then I struggle to see you having enough to stay up. Shame really as I was hoping to get the chance to visit next season.

    At least you'll get the opportunity to play in the FA Cup 1st round next season and potentially play against a minnow like Vauxhall Motors. Might even win an FA Cup match for once.

    Just realised that Ipswich are the late KO so we could go into the top two today for the first time this season even if only temporarily. Makes me even more convinced we'll **** it up. Might double my stake.

    Bit like the away end in your gaff. Have more chance of surviving a fall from Everest.

    I don't recall Wembley being that steep tbh.

    Then again my main memory of Wembley is Zlatan rising above our CBs in the 87th minute <wah>

    Pretty sure a bloke fell off the middle tier when Zamora scored against Derby.

    Always a bit tasty ... why it's a lunchtime KO ... remember going in the early 80s when the Cov fans bricked all the Midland Red buses (we used to travel on those back in the day) caught in the traffic jam on the main road out of Highfield Rd ... no doubt the numpties from both sides will be out in force today - some might even make the game ...<laugh>

    Did anyone else know there was a rivalry here? Sounds class. Millwall fans the other day got done for helicopter gestures.

    Imagine being banned from your clubs stadium for drawing a helicopter crash on a bedsheet. Absolute muppets.

    Though wearing crocs should be an executable offence in itself.
