Wonder if other forums could spare one of their number...... What other forums, there's only this one and wrath of the barclay left now who have a decent amount of regular posters, all the other ncfc forums have closed or died. Most people have migrated to facebook, twitter, Instagram, which is the way forward so the youngsters keep telling me lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe some here have dual memberships though, although I personally cannot see the point. However this forum can survive alongside the other social media ones, infact one enhances the other, as you can post insta / Twitter links on here for others to share.

Unless we accept that if we sell a player for £30m we use the money to build a new stand. Personally I'd like to see that done, along with safe standing in the Barclay and River Ends Depends on your thinking. Hopefully NCFC exists as long as football does. We will likely never establish ourselves permanently in the PL, we will also probably drop down to league one again at some point. A players time at the club is finite. The clubs on field performance is a finite game that finishes and starts again on a yearly basis. Increasing capacity is about thinking long term about the club, not one season, not 3-4, but what’s best for the club long after some of us are long gone.
