THE TOON V THE JELLIED EELS MOB OF WEST HAM *** SUNDAY AFTERNOOON!

 Posted '13:13 bells' Friday 13th! August 2021


'The Ronny Gill' (Newcasil Chronicle) haz reported that there are thoosands of tickets unsold for Sunday's Premyaa Leegue opener against West Ham--givin' the impression that at least 20,000 tickets are unsold---and then they say in the next 'breath', that in fact aalmost 4,000 actually remain on sale! (Taak aboot makin a moontain oot of a mole hill!)



And this woz reported on Thorsday, so, with Joe Willock's signin' a 6 year deal---and the fact that wor visitors will have 3,000 fans present in The Leazes upper tier---then there's a very real possibility that there will be a 50,000 crowd  or indeed a 52,000 plus full hoose, to welcome the teams onto the pitch, come Sunday! 


The last game with 50,000 fans present at SJP,  woz 18 months ago, in February 2020 (0-0 v Bornley)

Footnote: Steve Bruce woz asked by a BBC reporter if the there woz "More in the pot!", after the signin' of Joe Willock

"YES!", he replied, "I've got a chicken casserole bubbling away!"🥘
