Believe it when I see it. Probably bollocks. Still think Villa will edge this, but had a bit of a shit Saturday so far, so this is now absolutely a 100% must win to cheer me up!

Man City's spend on current defenders is also probably more than the cost of our entire squad?

A couple of people have mentioned Castle Leazes student resi as possible location. Unfortunately, Newcastle University are pushing ahead with it's redevelopment quite soon.

Keeping an eye on the Guardian writers' average prediction. Guessing they'll place us either 6th or 8th. Would be very happy with 6th myself. 1. City 2. Arse 3. Man U 4. Liverpool 5. Chelsea 6. ? 7 Villa 8. ? 9. Brighton

I wonder if the coaching team were allowed to choose their shoes

Mental price for a young, somewhat unproven right back with a potentially dodgy ACL. But other than Wood, we don't have a recent history of rash or poorly researched buys, so should come good.

Goods news if true. Just want a top quality CB/LB and we're happy?

We'll score, but fear our defence will take a spanking. 1-3.

Bit nervous my tickets are going to be useless come the Fiorentina game. I don't have a smart phone, but my mam (who I'm taking) does. Could I put both tickets on her phone then swipe between tickets?

£5m per season

We basically need to double our commercial income again to be a permanent top 6 challenger? Could do with some juiced up sponsorships in the next couple of years, yet somehow avoid getting blocked on fair value.

Had to go to bed at half time again Villa and Brighton fans now seem convinced by their superiority over us. They both made a real effort, but don't think we've played anywhere near our strongest team and/or likely formation at any point?

The new Hugo Viana tbh

This is shambolic. Villa are humiliating us.

Villa looking well drilled. We're a bit disorganised.

Fuck, hope this isn't a drubbing. Would rather we were just playing some MLS team tbh.

Villa are going to a force to be reckoned with next season. First match could be very uncomfortable. Think 6th should be our own realistic target for next season, so would be sorta happy for Villa to deny one of the breakaway 6 a CL place if it's not to be us.

Recently into watching Peep Show. Thoroughly enjoyed the thieving mackem episode last night

Finally managed to buy the tickets! Next challenge is how to handle digital tickets when you have a dumb phone

edit; ahh shit, I see there are two different websites as well.

Getting a completely different profile page when logging in as the other person. No sign of an ID number anywhere arghh

Just getting spinning wheel trying to add family to my account. Also asked for a fan ID number which I don't have, and when I click the 'click here if you don't have a number', I just get more error messages. This is possibly one of the worst websites I've ever experienced!

How the fuck do you get the website to work for tickets? Just endless errors using both Android on phone and Firefox on desktop.

Haven't Brazil been a bit shit each time Bruno has played?

This thread should be locked! Seems to be very little to this, if anything.
