I was thinking it'd be difficult enough to pace myself being in town from 4. Going for food as well though.

I'll just wait for the wild celebrations when we make it 2-0 in the 94th minute and grab someone else's new scarf as they swing it round their head.

I don't have a printer.

Get yourself wrapped in cotton wool pet. I've got out of date Strepsils and hot blackcurrant juice, it'll have to do.

I've got a cold and I can feel my voice going. Bad timing.

Can't wait for this. I've got the next few days off so it'll be nice not to have to go straight out from work and have a few leisurely drinks before heading up to the match.

A lass at work asked what time I was going out and I said 9am (always the target but the actual chances of us making it into town by then is slim this year with a 40 minute bus journey) and she was horrified. I'm going to point her in the direction of this thread since now I think she has me pegged as an alcoholic.

It returns £4.25

2-0 Cabaye 18 Cisse 90+4

50p - anytime own goal in the Manchester derby

I could make arguments for both but I can't decide so I'm not voting. I'd absolutely love to progress in Europe and get to another away trip if possible. In terms of league survival though we really need points from the mackem match. Win both.

I ended up having a £2.50 double on Cena & Undertaker. Returned £3.16.

Early drinking Always feel it loads more, probably because I always skip breakfast. Might wake up and get some stodge down me early on. The only good thing about it is an excuse to be in the pub at about 9am on a Sunday. Dreading the match though.

this Aye. And at that picture.

I'm away for my lap around the pitch now. I look forward to the paparazzi snaps of my fitness test.

Stop getting my hopes up with this Ben Arfa lark. Hope hurts the most!

Wearing a Newcastle shirt to the match for the first time in ages. I'm hoping it brings luck.

I've woken up with a really nervy feeling in the pit of my stomach and it's not even derby day. Home game against Fulham ffs.

50p Gouffran 2-0 £1 Taylor anytime

I've come to my first West Allotment Celtic match. 3-1 down at HT against Tow Law.

Well the eye candy in that was a bit disproportionate. I got Toothy George and Boring Billy waffling about his bottle prices. Boycoutt.

£1 e/w: Teaforthree 14/1 Sunnyhillboy 20/1 50p e/w: Ninetieth Minute 50/1 No basis behind those other than liking the names. £2: Bolton, Palace, MK Dons, Fleetwood

Ballabriggs in the work sweep.

Might go and meet Tino in Number 9 Bar before the match to take my mind off the actual match.

Few wobbly moments.
