Yep. Tight, but if you use the 6 yard line as a guide he looks to be within it whereas our defenders are outside of it.
I tried pausing it and when the ball is headed across he looks in line, on the 6yd line. Very tight.

On the pitch they weren't much better until O'Connor came on and changed the game, how he found on himself on the bench behind that donkey Cunnington???? Proud of the lads yesterday, I hope they're not too disappointed, as they put in a great shift. Keep that level of commitment and performance up and a playoff place won't be out of the picture.
Unfortunately, when it comes to ground grading, your relationship with the ground grader counts for much more than the condition of your ground.
Bloody chicken wire perimeter fencing Dave! Portaloos with no lights, awful catering, scaffolding for a terrace. Imagine when the like of Stockport, York, FCUM have to visit that place! :fool:
Ground looked better before the advert boards were torn off :blush: and Hayden rd is that impressive is the main stand still closed?

Proper, safe terracing so everyone can actually see the pitch, proper pitch perimeter, best food in the league, beer available. So yes, better than Shatimer Park already! :good:

Replaced with a different Hoeness, from Bayern. Ok?
Much better, thanks! :hehe:

At what point is our goal? Got fed up listening to the drivel the commentator was spewing waiting to see our goal!

To be fair, even if Hayden Road hadn't had any work done it would still be better than Latimer Park. Now let's talk about the state of the pitches. I've never seen a worse UCL pitch than Latimer Park let alone Step 3. Step 3 being the number of ladders you have to climb to get out of the pot holes

For anyone who wants a chuckle, they're now selling posters with pictures from the game.

That loss was the first time in seven seasons we have lost a Boxing Day or New Year's Day match.
