Aye it's on NUFC.com: Ah well.

I paid £50 to go to Chelsea last year and wasn't happy about it, but that was at a recently successful club with a decent stadium in an affluent area of London. This is just a total rip. I've got to get one for one of my mates until he can afford it and had expected to pay £70 for the 2 of us, tops.

I've always liked him.

Howay man, best league in the world, like. Should be at least £145 for every ticket... Fuck that, I'm going dressed as Ainsley Harriott so Delia gets the message about what a bitch she's been.

Yeah, it's mainly the last sentence where he panics and thinks "hang on, I haven't been enough of a prick here". At least he mentions the injuries.

Fuck's sake. A load of us are going to Norwich and it's FORTY FIVE QUID. Fuck off.

Well said. It's a strange way to go on, wonder whether you get the same reaction with surprise packages in Spain or Italy or Germany or wherever.

He came on to gloat after we got knocked out of the League Cup at Blackburn. Otherwise our refusal to lose has largely silenced him.

I wanted Emre out the door for his terrible injury record, let alone his patchy form when he was fit. Didn't have enough good games for us in 3 seasons, no chance.

Would sooner try Santon on the right of midfield than unsettle that defence for the Man City match. Santon wouldn't be my first choice for the right midfield slot mind, depends who's out. Would have Marveaux ahead of him, Guthrie if Cabaye and Tiote are back, perhaps Gosling but Ben Arfa might be pushing it. Taylor did get skinned a few times on Saturday admittedly, I just don't think we should change that back 5 while it's working out.

Bloody hell. The thing with Ferdinand is that his injuries have dragged on for 2 or 3 years now, seems like he's finished.

Marcelino. Sounded so highly rated.

Take your point Pilko, but Carroll was far younger than both. Seems more comparable to someone like Francis Jeffers but I can't see it going that badly wrong for him.

Imagine if he went to Stoke.

What a strange man Mark Hughes is.

No chance, I'd be going fucking mental if we spent £35m on such a player. It would be like spending £35m on Obertan, imagine my reaction. Carroll's progression at our club was insane to the extent that he was beginning to look like a world beater when he left us. Not sure why you're so down on him, me and every fucker I knew thought he was ace. The move to Liverpool just looks really badly advised, who knows whether he'd have carried on his upward trajectory if he stayed at the club but I think he'd be playing a hell of a lot better than he is at present. There's a bad feeling around the situation from all sides at the moment, can't see a player as daft as Carroll turning the situation around tbh and would imagine it ends with him leaving for less than half the price next summer or the one after.

Was it fact or bollocks that Souness was a significant Rangers shareholder at the time? If true that shouldn't be allowed, no chance.

I was talking to my mate about the odd chant of ours we've found cringeworthy the other day actually. Was saying I was well embarrassed by "Cheryl's too good for you" at Stamford Bridge last season but that was soon followed up by the marvelous "Shola's shagging Cheryl", so swings and roundabouts.

Yep, that's wank n'all.

Suddenly turned into a half decent game now.

Slow chanting's shit banting, no lies.

Their whole repetoire is exceedingly annoying especially the Defoe song. What's the Defoe song? Sifu: it's the "Spurs go marching in" slow chant, I'm beginning to moan about it more than I moan about work. It's fucking SHIT.

Oh not this chant again ffs. Seriously putting me off watching Spurs games.

Agree about Martins, was a huge part in us not getting relegated in his first season, had a good spell in Keegan's diamond the following year, chipped in with a few goals in the relegation season before getting injured. Not saying he was worth £10m and ridiculous wages, but did a fairly good job for us imo.

Just watching last night's MOTD now. Not sure I like much of the new format to be honest, too much making the actual match screen small in favour of fairly pointless graphics. Much prefer pre-match footage and post-match interviews being full screen and having the stats rolling along the bottom of the screen or whatever.
