Sorry seems to be the hardest word. Wankers.
a twist on the Elton John classic

Yes, obviously, that was the fucking point.

Someone needs to be sacrificed.

And it seems to me,
You spent your night,
With an ankle in the piss.

I was told that it was due to there being no stewards, so they could not open the turnstiles.

Lower Holte toilets - the urinals were full of mud, not sure what they had been used for before Saturday's game, but on a positive note they did have 2 new waste paper baskets, so that was an upgrade, I don't think the men's toilets have changed since they re-built the Holte end.

Hopefully the club will be sorting the issues over the next couple of weeks, they have a lot to work on.

That is a pretty piss poor statement from the club.

It’s a dreadful statement. An apology wouldn’t have fixed the problem but it would have diffused some of the anger. While I’ve said Heck doesn’t deserve criticism for everything, where he has generally failed is communication. He’s done a lot of good things, but at the regular fan level, on issues that really matter to us it’s been incredibly poor.

I guess that's why they blocked up the loo's.

I like the fact the Adidas logo appears twice in the email from the club. I bet they're pleased.

Did anyone check that the urinals weren't just full of Carlsberg?  It may be a new self serve initiative?

Yea I put my pint glass in and scooped some up.  I could tell it was piss though as it tasted much better than Carlsberg.

What are these good things Toronto? Not being facetious, I'm generally intrigued.

Adidas deal yes - But as I mentioned on the Heck thread, pretty much anyone could have sold an up and coming Aston Villa side to a forward thinking sportswear manufacturer, part owned by the same bloke who owns the club. I literally cannot point at anything else.

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time,
Till the gate opens and I'm out this line,
There's not a seat now where I thought I am,
Oh, no, no, no - I'm a worthless fan.
