As most of us know all too well, it isn't easy to build a new stadium nowadays, particularly in the south of England!!! Wimbledon are one step away from their dream of returning home. Incredible that this is even a possibility if you consider that their club was taken from them and moved to...
The National Trust are working with the National Football Museum to create an area of woodland for each football club, in remembrance of those players who fought for their country during the First World War. Great idea, better explained here:

Assurance from our Chairman that, before the season started, we 'got our main targets'. Also mention that there would like to be more players in, but 'it's a difficult market', and we need to find the find players at the right...

Couple of ideas we'd do well to look at:
1) Early...
When the Season Ticket renewal letters came out last season much was made of the caveat that prices would increase with a promotion to the PL. Regardless of the fact that TV income would grow enormously, the Club felt it would be right to raise the prices.
As we are now just as likely to be...
New manager, revised managerial structure. Assuming Hughton is given a modest budget in Jan (and spends it), are the Play-Offs a possibility? 17 points off currently. Palace were 19th in 2003 when Dowie took over, and went up via the Play-Off route. We're 21st... :ffsparr: or :albion2:
According to a source at Sussex Police, extra security will be drafted in on Boxing Day. Reading fans are probably more likely to give you malware than a punch, so is this to control the rowdy mob in WSL? Or to arrest anyone who says anything against the manager/Paul Watson/Barber/pies?
There's been a poll about a protest and several mentions of not going to the Reading match if he stays. There are several ST holders I know that haven't missed a games for months that will not go if Sami is still in the dugout. Would be interesting to see how many of the '24k' are human beings.
There's been much muttering about Sami/ Bloom/ Barber/ Burke/ pies in the past few weeks but can I suggest that you make your opinions heard at the match tonight rather than come home and abuse the keyboard venting your frustration on North Stand Chat.
The end of the Fulham game was met with...
A quicker appointment of Hyypia would've given the bloke a full summer to assess the squad - we were too slow on that front.
An appointment of his preferred No. 2 might've given us a management team that actually knew each other and could work together - leaving it so late on the Lee front left...
The level of apathy in the North Stand today was worrying.. many people have chosen to spend their Saturday elsewhere and the ones left wonder if they're still sane. People can take losing, but its the LACK OF ENTERTAINMENT which is killing off the support.
It's time for a change. And when he...
Calling all Seagulls & Mullets!
Arundel celebrate their 125th anniversary tomorrow with a match against the BHA Dev team. The Club's existence was in doubt this winter due to the horrendous flooding, but thanks to the support of local football teams and the community, they managed to make it...
You have probably read in the local news that Arundel FC are experiencing very difficult financial problems at the moment due to the severe flooding of the Mill Road pitch. Some of you may have been to the ground, often described as one of the most picturesque grounds in the country, with the...
As you are no doubt aware, the Safe Standing campaign has recently gone from strength to strength and various features and surveys have been carried out to highlight what fans think of the proposed changes.
The BBC's Late Kick Off programme are planning to produce an item on Safe Standing, for...
Some of you may be interested in this phone-in from Talksport a couple of evenings ago.

CMS and Bridcutt are now apparently due back in late November. So that will have been CMS out with an achilles for 9 months and Bridcutt out for 3 months with a hernia! God knows when Hoskins or Orlandi will be back lurking on the subs bench.
Time to bring back Malcolm Stuart?? :bowdown:
Not an egg chaser but on a stag weekend and some are keen to watch it. Staying in New England Road- is there anywhere near there or the station likely to have it on?
