Last game is next week. I'm told he definitely handled it.

Woo.

Wasn't sure. Still aren't. For some reasons unrelated to NUFC.

Ahhh yes that's right. We beat em 4-2 IIRC. Lost 4-3.

Nor do I.

To answer a few things in here: His retirement was only announced in the closing weeks of this season. Whether it was planned last summer or not, we may never know (but as midds correctly surmises, there's an autobiography on the way I believe). For cautions, some referees still like the old notebook system to write everything down, but at the top they tend to use tick boxes and write on cards. The problem in this instance was that when he showed one of the first 2 cautions to Simunic, he ticked the corresponding box on Australia's side (Craig Moore). For once in his life, Moore hadn't already been booked, so Simunic stayed on until he got his third a few moments later. Had Moore been old and slow and fouling as usual, it'd never have happened. Probably. But he messed up. He's no longer doing Finland vs Belgium, duties have been passed to Mike Riley.

If he sold the naming rights to SJP? Er, no.

Now that would be pretty good.

The FA Press Officer made it clear that in all cases there could be questions posed about England matters only, not club affairs. Don't let facts get in the way of a good Owen rant, Matt.

Watching the highlights, looks like he played really well, put in several excellent crosses.

And they can't be posted on here of course.

Amady Faye vs Coventry

Bring back thread moderation.

Gave us a good year's service, but right that he moves on. Thanks, Sib.

I cannot put my disappointment into words.

No, no, just no. Under no circumstances whatsoever should we sign him.

Ooooo it's getting very exciting now.

Dear God. I may actually fall asleep.

Steve's polished his head for the occasion I see.

This thread is having the desired effect anyway...

Impossible when most teams would of had to play them 4 times so all other teams would have played 40 times To be fair, they could have put 11 traffic cones up against the mackems and they'd still play a draw. You're forgetting something. That game against Charlton a few years back, 3 own goals wasn't it?

I said at the time it would take major changes to make me renew. The managerial change is only the first, it alone hasn't changed my mind.

What got me was the way she went "With a backheel"....it sounded exactly like the piss-taking womens commentary you hear on things like Soccer AM.

Real vs Espanyol was absolutely fantastic. Me and my mate mate said at 3-1 that Real would still come back to win.

Shepherd's Pie.
