    There's no way Whelan's first yellow was justified. Just saying like.

     

    Matter of opinion though. Which I guess the definition and use of "lucky" is as well, tbf.

     

    I sit near the half way line and had a good side on view. To my mind Whelan kicked the ball away and deserved his yellow. I thought Cabaye was lucky not to also get yellow as he took the opportunity to have a nibble at Whelen which caused the spat. The only lucky thing I can say is that players kick the ball away frequently without getting the yellow the rules prescribe.

  2. It's a question of who needs who more. The newspapers need football for circulation but clubs need the press to ensure coverage of the game. I personally think it's a bad/short term move by nufc as the printed press is under enough threat already from the net based media, the exclusives on offer are poor copy and in this recession seats at games need to be sold. Clubs make so much from TV, taking money from the press seems petty. So it comes back to an attack on the coverage of the nufc protests. I hope this will give us a free press willing to report on all events with an open mind.

    Yes, he and Supermac got over 50 between them that season.

     

    Gowling was s**** man, he had one season of living off Macdonald then reverted to type once Macdonald left for Arsenal.

     

    Had a good season immediately after Supermac left in the good Gordon Lee season.

    To clarify the system (which is bought in) is not the greatest (aside when it works, which is  rarely) and the staff are often limited by the whim of 'the system'

     

    If you aren't in your own seat you should have a paper ticket.  The main reason is practicality.  If you get an unfamiliar seat are you likely to remember block 4 row A seat 45 when you booked 2 weeks ago?

     

    That would make sense but my email confirmation suggests I'll be playing the memory game. I hope the season ticket card can hold another seat reference in it or else it might not let through the right gate.

    Just been told Cabaye is in the crowd at the Monaco v Marseilles game. Might just be taking in the game but I doubt it.

     

     

     

    What would he doing there then ?

    Few days off with the international break and no game for him. Chance to get away from Jim White and re-focus on his love for NUFC.
