    Well my Townies, it's Saturday!
    We as a new generation of Premier League fans will soon get to see the world's best footballers showcase their talents every week. And the Arabian Leagues can go f...k off.

    On the menu will be the likes of
    Mohamed Salah,
    Rodri
    Saka
    Declan Rice
    Phil Foden

    Tasty or what! As I and others have said, I totally trust the Club to do what they need to do to strengthen.
    We can dream on and just try to compete with the best. Its gonna be one helluva ride and I will contact the club to see if they have room in some form of membership or other to get back up to Suffolk once in a while.

    Bit envious of those with a season ticket, even though I don't get to too many games.
    For those without a ST, think it will be nigh on impossible to get tickets.
    Hope they at least do the junior blues membership again, where you could get a free child and adult ticket (I'm trying to convert my partners boy as he's only fixated on Man city)

    Not understanding the vitriol toward the Arabian leagues? They have fallen at the first hurdle - nobody is interested.

    I am not that bothered but many are.

    In a record-breaking transfer window, Saudi Pro League (SPL) clubs spent close to $1 billion, acquiring 94 overseas players from Europe's major leagues – France's Ligue 1, Spain's La Liga, Italy's Serie A, Germany's Bundesliga and the English Premier League – according to Deloitte.

    And according to CNN sports,
    Saudi Arabia is trying to disrupt soccer’s world order.

    But that is all off topic.

    I think ownership and investment in British clubs and European clubs is a much bigger threat than trying to poach European players for their leagues.

    Quite possibly Hampy. Back to my thread, I doubt I will be able to get back my membership as it has taken me 2 years to recover from a serious road accident on my bike, and 5 years to get well after cancer.

    But I will carry on enjoying good quality live TV streams and hearing all you guys comments and reviews after seeing the game live!

    Looking like all 3 teams that went up last year are all coming back down.

    Better to get beat at Carrow Road than play for a draw. Embarrassing from Leeds United. After that game I think I’m siding with Norwich to get through to the final.

    Tight game at the Hawthorns of a different kind. Surely the winner of this tie will be promoted.

    Just seen the photo of McKenna at Villa Park with Gareth Southgate and Tom Hanks. Bit of a step up from Fleetwood Town.

    You have to think he'd be mad to take them on at this stage.
