Aye spot on that. A fenced off celebration is in the interests of nobody. I don't even think it's got anything to do with selling hotdogs - the amount raised would be paltry and irrelevant. It's just a shit idea from people that fundamentally don't get it.

This is Rob speaking. I want to hear from Wee Rabbie. He wouldn't talk like this.

I saw him at the MGM when I went to see Prince Naseem get his face kicked in. Wandering about the casino, surrounded by some blokes that were even bigger than him.

It's as well he's died, I don't know how he would have picked just one to take to the town Moor.

Enjoyed the match cam, although there was a bit too much match. That might just be cos I've almost got the thing memorised though. Jones and Howe both looked like they had tears in their eyes moments at the end. Tindall stayed strong.

Said England didn't look like a team that believed they could win the last tournament, they looked more like a team that just wanted to stay in. Said they looked scared to lose rather than believing they could win. The truth, basically.

Gordon looks fucked here. Didn't see the incident but he hasn't looked right since and he's just gone down to the deck at the final whistle.

The one they've all been waiting for.

11/1 to score anytime on 365. They can get fucked with that.

I hope he's got himself a Euromillions ticket.

Was just checking there, and the double's still on.

Aye she is. I didn't realise she was Bono's kid.

Actions have consequences lads. That's all I'm saying. You thought we needed another three little mini versions of you running around in the world, and you were wrong.

Get the chairman to the front of the bus and have him do the Gladiator style thumb down thing, and watch as the crowd descends upon the protestors like a swarm of ants. I know a lad who now has a season ticket cos his mate is one of the original group of 7 or whatever it was that formed that Newcastle Fans Against Sportswashing group. Got it transferred over from the other lad. Wonder what those lads got up to on Sunday.

I wonder if there's gonna be a Saudi group coming over for it, so they want some security and control over it, and to be able to daub the place in Sela branding. Something that probably couldn't be achieved by a bus tour. Given the lengths they went to the night before the final with that tower in London, I'm sure they'll put a canny event on, and some money will be spent making sure it's decent for those that can attend. But I'd much rather be able to jump on the metro into town, watch them wave and shake the cup about for 10 minutes, and then go about my day. I fully approve of the one child per adult rule though. It's about time we started punishing people for having too many kids.

No booze though. I mean have they met any Newcastle fans?

It's absolute bollocks to place loyalty gates in the way of a celebration event for the whole city. Have you given us any money this season? Well then YOU can see the cup. Just drive a bus around waving the cup about, and any and every one who wants to be there will be there. They'll not change tack before the event though, this'll be what we get. I mean I don't imagine it's easy to shut down an entire city at short notice for an open top parade, but this is why you make plans in advance.

I was gonna have a wander down on the day, but I see that won't be possible. Oh well.

They mention something about the Man City 115 charges thing coming to a head during this international break. It'll just be guesswork, but I'd be pleased to see that sorted if they're right. It can't be far off and an international window would be a good time to do it.

I think it was because of the mix of Tue/Wed/Thu games, and the fact they all play on different weeks in Europe at that time, it would have been impossible for games between the teams to happen.

no thanks, Talksport.

I just spotted this this morning. We have a "no serious telly" rule on a Friday night, so I can see this getting a go tonight.
