Not if we play like we did tonight.

Apparently sakho to west brom is almost done, so I guess callieri to us must be done too - just need a left back now please!

[TCEvo]

I read that it was subject to a WP (Calleri) but seems to have gone quiet.

Sakho to West Brom reminds me of Diame to Hull couple of years ago.

Hi Rich B - I am yes - usually frequent KUMB but just seen this on pistonheads - at this time of year, the more info the better, so I'm in!
Hear we are close to signing this tasty left back who's left foot reminds me of Dicksy from my old perch in the west stand lower:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4fUoqdDA-4

You'll find out about us all in a while. I'm one of the older ones, started supporting in 1964 stood on the North Bank halfway back to the left of the goal! One of the chaps on here's son is in the academy (I think). Anyway welcome...

[Black can man]

Yeah , welcome along Mudy , most off the threads on here are fine except one or two,


Won't take you long .

[mudy]

Thanks gents - very kind. I can't beat a 1964 (what a great time to start supporting the irons!) but can only manage an 1984 - Georgie Parris, Ray Stewart, and then of course Mark Ward and the great cottee macavennie duo for our triumphant 86' season - for some reason settled then on the WSL - just a few seats down from the dugout.
Remember particularly Les Sealey (rip) banging the plastic siding and miming a cigar smoke when Ludo pulled off a phenomenal save at some point and hilariously Frank Lampard Snr sneakily stealing 'arry's chewing gum on a few occasions and never getting caught.
My last game (payet's amazing free-kick against Palace last season) me and my old mate sat in the chicken run right by the away supporters - best atmosphere I've been a part of - wish I worked it out before - that's the place to be!
Anyhow - let's hope we nail that elusive '£20 million pound striker' this season, ship out sulking sakho, keep Payet and all will be well (even if we crash out of Europe early doors again this season!)

Great stuff.

WELCOME!!!

Just remembered that my daughter is going to be part of the opening ceremony - dress rehearsal all day on Saturday and then she's got to be there early for Sunday.

On a side note, who's going on Thursday?

[AJB88]

I am!

Off to Brighton today with Lazio, then the OS on Thursday!

Welcome! Great choice of seat (well, standing), I had a ST there for ages!

Presume most are going on Thursday? Really hope we can turn it around, I didn't see any of the match but we sounded dreadful. He shouldn't really be resting any players IMO, we need to go for it and get European football for the first season at the Olympic Stadium.

Yep, I'm going. Just looked on the website and there are seats available dotted round the stadium. No idea what it will be like but looking forward to finding out! I'm in row 7 near a corner flag not sure which one . Hopefully it will be a decent game.

[sjc]

Am away so can't make Thursday, but going Sunday .
Anyone know what time the Opening ceremony is for the Juve game ?

[TCEvo]

Going Thurs but not Sun - saw an ad for the Sun game on TV, suggested it's early afternoon.

[BrabusMog]

Think it's 4pm isn't it? I'll find out today if I can avoid family in law duties until Monday and hopefully be able to grab a ticket if there are any left, would rather watch that match than help lay 80sqm of "wood" flooring!
