It had a facelift with the murals etc
The wifi's improved but could still better, the seats are fine, the main thing for me is making the concourses better, IK it's a football stadium but there's still not enough places to rest your overpriced beer while you eat your overpriced pie
Yeah this is a shame. Thought he was generally a reliable performer when fit. Think his absences at the end of 21/22 and 22/23 were felt.
I’m also quite happy the club have opted to cancel the contract though, it’s brutal but we can’t carry players like this. As you say hopefully he’s able to have a career elsewhere once his injury problems clear up.

Agreed - it's sad things worked out this way. Very talented player but his fitness let him down.
Putting the laughter back into manslaughter
yes, I think they gave him a contract last summer as a goodwill gesture in recognition of his situation, so they've done the right thing
You have to wonder about the difference he could have made if fit last season, could have taken some minutes off Saliba at least, plus helped out Timber and White, neither of whom were really fully fit.

Somehow I think our failure to agree a new contract wasn’t about money
It was clearly reported that we refused to increase his salary and that we were in contract negotiations ....so trying to retell that story this late in time in order to make the club smell of roses is a bit pathetic.
I wondered a bit about the timing of the charges, but it kind of makes sense when you think about it. The Met is notoriously known for taking their time in these kind of cases and clearly the realisation that we are not offering him a new contract means they know that he could be out of the country soon and need to act now.
We were a bit lucky here and I'm sure Partey is regretting in more ways than one not signing that extension.
This has been brewing in the background for a very long time and let’s just say we’ve had a stroke of luck that he isn’t our problem anymore.![]()
