"sting in the tail regarding the stadium"

I'm looking on the positives:
Scorpions to play the first concert there?? Okay, not such a positive
Trying to think of any NFL team which is an animal that stings, such as scorpions and can only think of Tampa Bay Rays, but that's baseball. Maybe the Bucs are moving....

Suspect it's going to be the 2 year move to MK though, which is good considering where I live.

The Goats latest update could mean that there maybe some delay in an announcement regarding the new stadium.

That's definitely too small, capacity of 12000. We couldnt take that hit on revenue and it would be damaging for longer term support.

Cheers I wasn't aware of their capacity was just going on the bees/sting in the tail theme.

3 new defenders, really needed. Felt bad for Hugo dealing with those soft as fuck chocolate buttons in front of him ( rose not Inc)

I still insist the cabbages are Rabiot and Cabaye.

JJ said Cabaye is now unlikely so that would tie in.

Same grocer = PSG.

With each defender that signs, Chiriches takes a step further back from the first team. KEEP SIGNING DEFENDERS!!!

sting in the tail
phrase of sting

1. 1.
   an unexpected, typically unpleasant or problematic end to something.
   "the Budget comes with a sting in the tail—future tax increases"
   
   
   Its not looking positive is it?

I'd like to know what happened to the Goat's link with a Spanish winger also?

If Chiriches plays another minute for us i'd be staggered!

Needs to move on for his sake.

Well you'd think costs are going to increase massively because of the nfl incorporation so that could impact the timescale on getting it built. Although you'd think they would factor that in when deciding whether getting the nfl on board is worth it or not.

Window summary:

Out - 3 CMs (3 O/S)

In - 3 defenders (2 O/S, 1 HG)

Net spend = £0

Squad size = 31 (O/S = 17)

I've just moved to within a mile and half of WHL so this would suck for me, still, can't be helped. We need somewhere to play.

dont like this sting in the tail shit, I'm hoping that it's solely how long it's going to take or where we pitch up to play for 1-2 seasons & nothing more sinister than that. I'm a bit meh about TA, Louvren's move to Lolopool last Summer has made me edgy about their defenders abillity to play elsewhere

Do people really still believe MK won't happen? Paul Barber leaked that it was our plan in an interview 7 years ago!

For me a sting in the tail would be keeping something similar to the Blue Emirates design. I'm well jealous of the Stamford Bridge plans - they look epic.
