It was announced in the summer that we'd got Category 1. I say announced, I read that it had happened.

What? All of it, the Ben Arfa thing especially. Wasn't having a pop. I suppose it does beggar belief.

What?

The last three games I've been at since April, I've seen Newcastle concede 12 and score 2. And yet some people are just content and go "Awh well, maybe next week." Not even a single song against Ashley or Pardew today. No pressure whatsoever. Most people, laughably, seem to have blamed it on Ben Arfa inside the stadium.

It's incredible, really.

Anyone else not received their tickets yet?

Words like 'disgrace' have become so overused in football that they don't really mean anything anymore so it's hard to describe just what is going on at NUFC without sounding cliched. It's a complete scandal the way NUFC are run but the media's reluctance to stick the boot into any of the Premier League cash cows basically means we're on our own and there's absolutely f*** all we can do about it. Nail on head.

United For Newcastle ‏@UtdForNewcastle 50s In #NUFC's last two summer transfer windows, they have spent £9.7m of the £1bn spent by Premier League clubs (so far). Less than 1%.

Played in Community Shield, didn't he?

I don't honestly see Ashley selling for less than £25m+ You could easily argue that a French international midfielder with 3 years left on his contract, in his prime, with the new television revenue is worth that. Ashley'll want the most money possible. If Ashley does sell for less than that, then I dunno how anything works at this club anymore and will throw myself into the Tyne.

Strained his fingers tweeting bollocks for twelve hours straight.

L'Equipe are reporting that.

We've been drawn away roughly 80% of the time over the past eight or nine years.

Lee Ryder ‏@lee_ryder 37s Campbell goes on a darting run forward, beating the defence, before forcing a fine save from the keeper http://www.newsshopper.co.uk/resources/images/2508701/?type=article #nufc

Tiote's just been credited with a goal in a local derby in Aberdeen.

I actually think that's ended up quite nice.

We've got to get Pardew out ffs.

Spurs have enquired.

I'm done with buying tickets. I'm done with this while Ashley's in charge.
