    Wolves fans said it best.

    It’s lovely, and the seats are super comfortable!

    They’re playing football again now under Potter, which will hopefully suit our style.

    Agreeing with Wolves fans purely reinforces my belief that VAR is great

    My favourite new ground.

    Love the way they've kept to single tiers behind the goals but extra round the side, makes it feel unique n is a decent atmosphere too. I'd recommend sticking around after for a pint/snack too.


    Hundred times better than SMS anyway.

    The worst ref we've had in charge since the Spurs game at home last season.

    Probably the worst ref in the prem, VAR's not going to save this incompetent.

    More chance of getting something with VAR than relying on that **** for 90 mins.

    What, with Lee Mason on VAR duty? He's even worse!

    Kevin Friend with the whistle and a Skate watching the cameras.

    What could possibly go wrong.

    Maybe we should instigate the VAR Conga to keep us occupied while waiting for the Skate to disallow a Saints goal ...

    I`m hoping Saints fans won`t know how comfy the seats are since they`ll be out of them all afternoon!

    First win of the season. Adams first goal followed by his second. Hojberg screamer and JWP special after djenepo dances past three opposition players. Lost count of how many goals that is but it’s enough.

    i watched the press conference
    one of the reporters said (in relation to social media) that there were comments circulating that he looked good and had shed a few pounds.
    he seemed fairly relaxed and calm but not very joyful tho
    he sneered at a question on transfers re. Fraser going to celtic - like you know we have 4 keepers etc
    defended che adams saying those chances he missed recently he took in pre-season on the back of a question relating to the step-up from the championship and also said he helps the overall team in terms of his effort
    he said lemina 'is a lazy bugger' which i didnt see coming. they dont normally say that do they?
    a win would sort all this out of course

    The sooner we go to 4 are the back so we can strengthen the midfield and get a grip on games for both halfs the better. We have shipped 5 with 3 CBs so we might as well except we cannot defend and load up the attacking midfield a bit more to outscore the opposition.

    Get armstrong or boufal or the new chap in there
