I knew it was a thing before we joined the league, but the number of tourists you see at the Prem stadiums is one of the biggest differences vs the champ. Interesting what Kieran Maguire says here....
I met a Canadian family in the pub before the Wolves game who'd flown over for the game, were fully kitted out in Wolves Merch and were 'massive fans' who had never been to Wolverhampton before and had no association but had selected them as their EPL team...imagine their horror when they turned up at the station...
Council increasing prices from Tuesday night. Guess they’re banking on none of those parking and paying the rise being voters in Ipswich as it’s a bit of a steep rise and not many other options to avoid the cost.
Used to enjoy our trips to Upton Park, always reminded me of a slightly bigger version of Portman Road, usually a great atmosphere, a good bit of banter between fans, and when they scored against us in the playoffs (westlake post game), it was the loudest ground I think I’d heard. Yesterday was the polar opposite, I actually came away sad for their fans, the stadium is soo not a football stadium, crap sight lines, terrible distance, half finished setup and terrible atmosphere. Unless the club can buy the stadium and totally redo the setup, it’ll never improve. Just totally soulless, can understand why a number of their fans have stopped going, to be replaced with tourist day trippers.
Came away so glad that we have Portman Road as a place to visit, with lots of potential for development in a good way.
Football wise, lots for McKenna to reflect on, not great from us. At least we appear to have a goal scorer in the side, which is one of the hardest things to find.
Reckon he will be the next Chelsea or Liverpool signing, thought he was very impressive. First half Morsy and Phillips struggled to cope with his physicality, he was almost running over them.
Another illustration of their recruitment model, moves from an academy in Cameron to Lille and makes only 19 appearances before Brighton step in and pick him up.
