Not good news. I hope NUFC is looking at legal action against Milan - if they knew about this when we bought him.

It's mind-boggling that some players get picked regardless of club form and how much they haven't played. C4 said Phillips has had 70 mins of football so far this season. Pish.

I'm not that arsed about watching, even with Tripps playing at DL. Corrie at 8pm is more appealing.

He's done a grand job at The 'Heed. Deserves his chance and I wish him well.

Terriers do seem to be back on the up - hopefully a promotion push from NL2 this season.

He didn't want to invest - said the club should be self-sufficient. etc. God knows what's happened since. The days of John Milner bagging 50 goals a season seem a long time ago, now. I 'think' the Perry brothers are back involved with running the club, as they were during the club's 'golden era'. Am not gonna say much owt about that on here though.

Something similar happened at Bedlington Terriers about 20+ years ago. NL Champions 5 years out of 7 (IIRC), an FA Cup run to round 2 and also a vase final back in 1999 (which I went to) Club should have been awash with money and yet, it didn't take long for it to go tits up. The club haven't really recovered, since.

Whole thing stinks of a tin-pot club at the moment. Not good.

Good win for Blyth today - 3-0 v Bishop Stortsford in an early (1pm) KO.

Well, this isn't good news at all. What is it with footballers and betting? You'd think they earned enough cash as it is!

Said this would go to 100 pages.

2 good mates of mine tested positive, yesterday - both were at the PSG game.

Young local lads have always been a target for the boo-boys - all the way back until my dad's match going days. Anderson did OK today, IMO.

Well, that was a genuinely awful game, regardless of what Neville was saying. Expected far better from both sides.

Happy enough with the point on the road, given the exploits v PSG last Weds. West Ham are a good side and in good form.

I think we've done OK, without looking too threatening. Final ball has been poor. I concur with those who say fetch Wilson on - would allow us to go a wee bit more direct.

As expected

Burnley 1 Chelsea 0 Odobert

Everton in front v Bournemouth Garner

Bit of a pasting!

Great news - our playmaker.

Met Vicky Sparks briefly when she worked for Radio Newcastle. Nice enough lass - a god botherer apparently!

I thought the drum was great last night - added to the atmosphere.

Ando for the 3rd and 4th goal
