He's shown his hand by sitting next to Amanda, he's not going anywhere else realistically. I wouldn't be surprised if Fonseca ends up at Villa though.

Maybe they bumped his ticket up? As HMHM says I’ve nothing against the bloke himself, but these pillocks calling him a club legend, panicking about a grown man missing his bus, and showering him with free stuff is ridiculous, apparently he was a Manchester United ‘fan’ up until a couple of month ago. Many react to what I and many are saying by going “it’s just jealousy” but it’s really not, I’m not asking for any of this stuff myself but as HMHM says there are surely tons of actual supporters, ones who have stuck with us for years, more deserving than some random bloke that just decided he supports us now. The “well you best get used to it” responses with regard to glory hunter types also doesn’t wash with me, I know if we become successful the glory hunters will come and Wraiths new bestie is just trying to get in early doors, but I’m not talking about a glory hunter coming and buying tickets etc, my complaint is this bending over backwards by the sponsors/owners/whoever to shower one with things the majority of proper fans couldn’t dream of getting, or at least have to pay/work for. I couldn’t give a fuck about the bloke and a few daft pictures/free pints should be the extent of it, this wanking off over having a ‘Saudi Geordie’ is, dare I say it, mackem behavior - so maybe the mackems are right and Wraith really is a MLF. FWIW they all want a word with themselves as the mooch has played them all like a fiddle, grown men basically pleading on his behalf to get him a ticket for the Brighton game ffs. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44934 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Wraith is ripe to be pranked with something like this. Get someone from the local kebab shop, cover him in a bed sheet and Elizabeth Duke gold, and get Wraith to put him up at his house and shower gifts on him for a month. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I and thousands of others have travelled thousands of miles in various states of dress supporting this club, (definitely not supporting Man Utd). Amount of freebies gained? Take a wild guess.

When we play our friendlies in Riyadh, start a twitter campaign that you are on your way over wearing a bowler hat and Union Jack t-shirt, maybe they'll sort you out a VIP seat. 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35095 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 (edited) I get the point re: the PR side of it but unless I’ve missed something he flew here for a jolly rather than only using modes of transport available to Phileas Fogg Edited November 7, 2021 by Alex 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44934 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 I've flown Emirates once and it was absolute insanity. Loads of lads in floor length shirts just sitting wherever the fuck they liked, and having to all be walked to their assigned seats by the stewardess. Wandering about while the seatbelt lights were on and the plane is still at a 45 degree angle during takeoff. "BUT WHY CAN I NOT SIT WITH MY WIFE!" one wanted to know. "Because your seat is here. And her seat is way over there." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
