Spurs’ new stadium
- Thread starter Chris Holmes
- Start date
We are soft arses we bend over for everyone and get taken advantaged of and total piss taken out of us.
I don’t get this slagging off of the club.
The move to Monday was the least worst option for us. City have done more than they need to regarding refunding fans costs. The issue here is why are Spurs not being fined?
We would have had to fulfil the fixture regardless. If anyone can suggest another time for the match am all ears.
Even when Middlesbrough didn’t fulfil a match due to illness, the team they were due to play did not get the points.
Am assuming we will be ‘catered for’ in terms of fixture congestion later in the league with cup matches etc. Convenient timing of matches etc.
Aim your fire at that disgrace of an ownership at Spurs imho.

I'll accept we've messed up not announcing arrangements for Fulham and Southampton early enough, but I'm not sure we could have refused to play under PL rules. - Unless you have actual details of how we could have mounted a protest.We are soft arses we bend over for everyone and get taken advantaged of and total piss taken out of us.
The only real option would have been to reverse the fixtures but it would have needed PL approval.
The balls up is with Spurs who should have requested an away fixture on the weekend of the NFL game just in case the new WHL wasn't ready. The PL must also take a share of the blame as they should have demanded contingency plans were in place for at least 3 months after the scheduled completion date.

I wonder what the PL would say/do if the referee said the pitch was unfit to pay on?

Much too much money/SKY involved for it to be called off even if it makes the old Ashton Moss pitches look like a bowling green.

So did I for my primary school they were nasty & rutted at times.Nowt wrong with those pitches young lad. I played on them all the time as I lived on Knowle Avenue.
The condition of the pitch last night and 3 NFL games in the next 3 weeks is going to be fun. Anyone remember when they used to host the Horse of the Year show at Wembley?
