Shame he couldn't give it another year, at least have one promotion to his name. Going back to the UK apparently.

Thanks for all the positive reinforcement on the last couple of pages. Tried Soccer03/04/02/... For the first time last month and got 3 kits each for my 2 young boys. So that's 6 shirts with numbering and shorts for 85 pounds. Don't even want to think how much that would have been genuine. Also find it all the more difficult to justify full price for the kids when they could ruin it after 5 minutes.

Always heard that the deal was done so too late to cancel, but was that the timeline? Transfer fee accepted, so obviously too late for the club to cancel, but he could still have pulled out from personal terms? Obviously yes his quality dropped off a cliff for Spurs, but from continuity and habit alone he would have been better for us, I think.

Contentious guy for us Newcastle fans I suppose. But in hindsight, his Shearer red card set the wheels in motion that season that eventually got Sir Bobby in. One of those iconic figures from early Premier League football.

Kevin Keegan and Les Lerdinand

The rioting will have little to do with football though unfortunately. A bit of a traditional sport really, especially in the Paris area. Just good that they won so that it wasn't worse.

Well, I certainly didn't want PSG to win it but annoyingly and undoubtedly they have been fantastic over several rounds and looked like an actual team for the first time taking them to a fully deserved title. And Enrique is class, glad for him.

Yes, that's certainly the funny side of a PSG win here.

Didn't want to be that guy and go straight to Ben Arfa, but definitely thought it. The only extra sad thing about that is that his time at nufc was more than 10 years ago now

Now that was quite the thing.

Oh right. Forgot about that. Evens!

When it was looking dire back then, was thinking it would be fitting to Partizan up the CL qualification... But refrained from posting it

We were looking at 2nd not that long ago, to sneak in on 5th is a real shame.
