I thought Lockyer was in the World Cup squad, but just didn't play? Was a pointless answer on Pointless the other day. Fair play Locks, hopefully getting into the prem before the sh** manage it (let’s hope they never do). Not bad for a ‘League Two Centre Back’!

, fast forward 25 years to now where Enzo Fernandes is the most expensive player at near on £107M. So the Premier League record is now 8 times larger than 25 years ago. Don’t even know who that is!? But I guess he’s one of the new Chelsea lot?

I'd hope the design is different than Edinburgh as that is pretty much what we already have. Not steep enough to fit in the limited space we have Just included that view for the context of the pillars, looks much steeper in the cpu generated image, and as noted the roof is as high as the west stand so safe to assume the pitch is being moved to fit it all in too.

Well I'm really happy with this, view from the Blackthorn End will be markedly improved by this and assuming the pitch gets moved that will improve our views and hopefully atmosphere too. Here's a couple of images to help visualise it, last one is from the Edinburg Rugy Stadium mentioned above and included to show how the pillars will affect the view (very little in my opinion and no worse than the Blackthorns pillars).

We owe these muppets one today, 2 points stolen from our current talley after the ref miraculously found a spare 2mins in his back pocket after signalling 6 mins added on. The belter happily played on until 98+ where they scrambled an equaliser. Though I feel a score draw is in the offing, decent point on the road up at Fleetwood to secure our league status much like the other year. Damn, I forgot that one was against Fleetwood. Extra venom in this one now, come on the Dam GASSSS!

What a load of cods wallop. I just watched “MOTD2” and it was dull without commentary or pundits.
I can only assume all you people who say they prefer it without also prefer newspapers to just print photographs and scores?
Whole situation sums up the pathetic state of affairs we have in this country currently - an absolute shambles.

The big issue for me is, are we continually going to rely on loans or can we put together a squad that gels over a few seasons Potentially we could lose the keeper, Gibson, Quansah, Bogarde and Coburn… and so a rebuild again It’s a double edged sword isn’t it? Loans make us better but ultimately we change players every season!! UTG For me, a club like ours is always going to lose it's best players. So much as I agree that we need a core of players for a succesful couple of seasons, a high calibre of players coming in on loan for a season at a time can only be a good thing.

No prices for the south stand but prices for south west ? Not confident it will be ready in time but the southwest tent possibly staying you think? I'm gonna be optimistic and say the Southwest will be the start of the new stand and they'll work from there around to the south & towards the away terrace. Thjat way if not ready for the start of the season the southwest part will be and more blocks added as work develops

mind you not all of us fit in to 'young dudes' category, those who wonder what the eck I'm on about , think song back in the day, Mott the Hoople' ? Those of us that don't know what the eck "Mott the Hoople" is must surely be the ones who can call ourselves "the young dude" - which at mid-thirties is quite nice, thanks Halifax!

I’m going to really miss the view of Purdown from the north terrace, especially in the winter.

Money and inclination, probably. Plan A is a new build in around 5 years time, as much as I'd love to it would divert funds away from that. If I won the Euromillions I doubt Wael would stop me, but again the money needed would be better speeding up the new build. Maybe a prefabricated temporary stand, if such a thing exists, although we'd also lose the facilities held in it. A decent new South Stand would be a more achievable target, could enclose the ground and for me, would really improve the aesthetics. £3m should do it. 🫣 You mentioned £3 mil for a south stand. I wonder if the grant in this article is worth looking at. It is now viewed as a ' community assett" . This may open up possible funding streams ?. www.bishopstonvoice.co.uk/plans-for-revamped-memorial-stadiumHad a quick look unfortunately the grant is for maximum of £20k and would only really be applicable to the memorial gate if my reading is correct.

Great performance tonight and hopefully the rot has stopped..
But Coburn didn’t look half the player tonight, we carried him that last 15. Marquis in my opinion may have been a better option.
