So you want to change the rules because one of our lads took a bad one?...what about Anita the other night?

Wonder what angle the ref saw that from?......enter Perchino...at fullback....

Great ball in, still defendable though....Taylor was the wrong side of Kone and Santon was..well, Santon...

Am very fortunate....Bournemouth to Faro, out Wednesday morning back Friday afternoon, £69, all booked £48 for the train to Lisbon. Flybe do Newcastle to Southampton, but the flights don't work out, unless you fly Tuesday night and you wont get a flight back till Saturday morning....so what you save in flights you spend on hotels.And its a train then bus from Southampton to Bournemouth. It takes 5-6 hours to drive it. If theres 4 in a car that may well be worth it.

The club will get together with almost-in-administration Thomas Cook and provide transport for around 200 of your English pounds I reckon...

Just spoke to a mate who had the same trouble on Sunday....turns out that the club had sold his and his son's ST seats on Viagogo! I take it you got your seat ok?...

That's fuckin brilliant,,,,"The Stadium of Copyright Infringement"

I do sort of agree about it being about society thing, Tony Blair was sort of right when he was talking about middle classness, but the point still stands.The ground redevelopment excluded a large swathe of the clubs core support. Where lads who were canny with their gyro and earned a bit on the side could have a few lunctime then afford £5 to stand in the scoreboard, thats not possible now. Thats when the change happened and those people mostly didnt come back as far as I can make out. If dole was say £30 a week in the late 80s, ticket prices were only a 6th of the weekly benefit. Its now £63, but if your paying £30 for a ticket, thats half. There were 10s of thousands who have replaced them, but as you say as society changed in the 90s the type of people going to the match subtlely changed too. A lot ended up watching the training at Durham Uni, but trainings all private now.

Historically one of the great European clubs like, the last 15-20 years has seen a massive change in the type of person who goes to games iyam. Am on about mags from the 80s who couldnt afford SJH's party post 92. Thats the ones I'm on about. The ones who gave up due to price, scheduling, palaver of having to get a ticket for every single fuckin game instead of just turning up at 2-50pm straight from the pub and paying £5. They created an atmosphere some of the young uns wouldnt beleive. Thats the ones that skytv priced out of it and now watch it down the pub. We can still kick up a great racket when we want to but its different . Maybe am just getting old.

Think they said different last night, so fuck knows...

second leg is Thursday 11th April, we're pencilled in to play them on Sat 13th, so aye... If we're out the hat first in our tie we're at home second leg.

So it was Sorry CT. I was getting my mild mannered contraryists mixed up

Cant be arsed. But I definetly replied saying "you'll not be wanting a ticket for Amsterdam then should we get there".

Am sure theres a post from CT on one of the group game's threads basically saying "can't we just fuck the Europa league off? its shite"

They don't know how to pass to the man in space? shouldnt be on the pitch in that case. He's not trusted at this stage by the other players; Tiote and Gutierrez wouldnt give him the ball. Strange, as Pardew wouldnt put him on the pitch unless he felt he was ready.

Maybe they've been priced out of attending as regularly as they once did, and now have more loyalty to some boozer with ESPN. Thats where the Premier league and the tv comapnies have placed these folks' former loyalty to the club. Now even as a one off they cant be arsed to turn up and have been replaced by people who tut and whinge if you stand up and try to get behind the team. Changed days. It can be a bit strange going to games nowadays.

No one appeared to trust him with the ball anywhere around the opposistions box tonight. His runs into space were quality but no fucker would give him the ball.

Friday. And I want to go to Lisbon. Or Rome. Went to Basel before, nice but expensive. Wouldn't mind Fenerbache, we stopped at Istanbul airport on the way to Kharkiv but it cost 60 quid to get out the airport
