Done his hammy in training.

Well, no. That's real money that the club has spent, which it a) didn't want to and b) hadn't factored in to the long term running of the club. We are now a few million weaker financially than we would have liked. However, it was a wise investment given the potential losses of relegation. I wonder if it also includes the 7 months of saved wages from the Debuchy deal being messed up in the summer.

Our flight on Thursday morning just misses a train and the next one doesn't get us into Lisbon til 5, so we've rented a car and will be in Lisbon by 2. Getting the train back on the Friday.

I'm getting the train - spoke to some Portugese lads who said you'll be able to buy on the day so that's what we're doing. They're only €22 now so even iif it goes up to €30 its not the end of the world.

I'd imagine so, especially with them bringing 5k or so.

Villa vs Sunderland on 29th April is a massive game like. Lose that and they're in real shit.

You can also use the 'collect ticket at station' function so you dont have to pay to get it shipped to portugal.

Have you ever been in Number 9s?

It wont be a problem if you don't mind falling over every 30 seconds and finishing the game with two huge holes where your shins used to be. Should we agree on everyone takes B&W stripes and a white England shirt?

One year since the WBA 3-1.

Which one? Taylor Swift.

We could, but when I'm playing at SJP i'm wearing a Toon kit. Black and white is the preference, but the hideous third shirt would do me.

Have google maps'd Rossio square and there's fuck all bars there, but if you watch videos of everton fans etc there then there's plenty of beers flowing. May be a case of Brugge all over again in terms of buying crates and drinking in the square.

Of a shit version of pixel replay?

I'm gonna say up top for myself btw. Hope to god we get two volunteers to go in nets but I doubt we will

As people put their positions in here, i'll add them to the spreadsheet and put in here when completed. For what it's worth, whichever game i'm not playing in, i'll go and watch the other one. Would be good if people made the effort to see the other one.

27m loss for last year outside of player trading apparently. Oh oh oh oh oh oh dear.

Using next season's TV money already. Can see other clubs buying big in the summer. Signed.

Unfortunately they've been unable to swap with other teams, so we're playing 1 team at 10am and the other at 2pm. Could all players: (a) PM me with preferred playing time. Priority will be given to those travelling a long distance (b) If you no longer want to play, please offer your place up on here. I've now fully paid the club so not in a position to refund anyone. I've had the email below from NUFC twice, one for each game.

Maybe Coloccini got injured doing that overhead kick in the corner. I'd say possibly two broken bones or something in his back. The club then let him go home to rehabilitate as a) he's already homesick and b) what difference does it make? Then maybe he just went to a match while he was at home as he's a fan of the club. Crazy I know.

Same. Though we get to have the manufacturer logos on so we can still be smug.

Hope he gets to play the Arsenal game (assuming we're safe by then)

I know it's little consolation, but that's a cracking tune they're singing.

All QF games are 8pm
