    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.

    I have to admit I’m surprised he didn’t go for a bigger club but if they can match his ambition.

    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.

    Yeah think he's loved up there for that just as much as his football exploits.

    On another note, just seen that Sunderland have broken the 20,000 barrier in ST sales... unbelievable support in the third tier <applause>
