Just a bit of info for anyone wanting to move to the SE Corner next season; A mate of mine was up at the ticket office on Friday trying to get a seat in the SE Corner for next season. The lass behind the counter (who he said was very helpful!!!) told him that it's completely full at the moment but advised him to buy his season ticket in either block A at the front of the Gallowgate or block R in the Upper Tier. She says that's where they are advising anyone wishing to sit in the SE Corner next season to book their seats for. They don't anticipate many seats becoming available in SE Corner but if people who want to sing are being put in A & R blocks I would have thought that would perk up the atmosphere in those places as well. Also anyone buying a season ticket now or who currently has one will get priority for a seat transfer to the SE Corner over someone walking up after the renewal deadline has passed and trying to get in there. As it happens he's decided to push the boat out and has bought a season ticket for the East Stand Block M which is the closest block of seats currently available to the SE Corner and he's just going to stay put there next season.

I pay just over £51 a month over 11 months for the Gallowgate.

I think Mike Dean will be the deciding factor in this match sadly... So do I. He absolutely hates us and is the worst referee we could possibly have had. Guaranteed to give another penalty against us as well.

No doubt already mentioned but its a sell out which is good to see. A further 300 tickets have just been put on sale up in L7. Stoke must have sent them back to us.

The East Stand next to the corner (Blocks F & M) combine an excellent view with the atmosphere of being so close to the SE Corner. In fact i've even noticed them joining in with the singing the past few home games which is practically unheard of in the East Stand! I put it down to people buying tickets there because they want to sing and that's as close as they can get to the corner. Either way it's helping the atmosphere along nicely!

It'd be quite nice to be front-runners for a bit. Spurs didn't cope too well with our Bolton win either All the pressure is on Spurs. A couple of months ago they were still being talked about as title contenders and if we beat Stoke they won't even be in a Champions League place when they play QPR.

If we beat them we are guaranteed 4th place for at least 2.5 hrs until Spurs go to QPR in the 17.30 kick off. Just win!

Just been up to get a couple of extra Stoke tickets and asked about this as I was caught out by how quickly they sold out and I've missed out. Woman behind the counter said that our 4,500 allocation is completely sold out out and there's no chance of a further allocation. I was told this less than half an hour ago.

If you get in quick there's about 20 tickets still available online. Looks like Bolton have handed back the vast majority of the away sections to us and there's still a handful of seats up in the usual away end on sale to home fans.

Should be over 51,000 there i'd have thought.

Handed mine in last Thursday and got an email off them yesterday saying it had been processed.

To be fair the likes of Blackburn have no problem allowing away fans to pay on the day. NUFC need to remember that it was a minority of idiots down at Darlington that spoilt it for the vast majority who follow NUFC around the country without hardly any problems. Personally I think banning general sale for away games was all just a ploy to increase the club membership which they've promoted quite heavily for the past couple of years.

Apparently he hasn't failed. He just couldn't pee in the bottle!

Just had a text from a friend in Eindhoven saying it's rumoured that he's just failed a doping test.

Around 40k sold so far.

Do you know which ones mate? We were planning to get into town by about 9am but from what I can gather most pubs aren't opening until 10am. I know the likes of The Black garter will probably be open about 7 as usual but it's not really my cup of tea! i know about its reputation but what specifically is so bad about it? never been inside I had the misfortune to meet someone in there after the Arsenal game at the start of the season. Couldn't argue with the prices at £1.79 a pint but the place was stinking and when this old fella who was sat just along from us sh!t himself that was the que to get up and find another pub.

The person next to me booed, I didn't. However as much as I didn't agree with him booing he's paid for his seat the same as I have so is entitled to his opinion. I didn't let it bother me.

I went up to get an extra ticket for my brother today because he's just found out he can get back up here for the match. I sit in the Gallowgate so I tried to get him in there but was told it's sold out, same for the East Stand and Milburn Paddocks. Managed to get him a seat in the NE Corner in the end and the bloke in the ticket office said there were only 350 tickets remaining and that nearly all of them were up in Level 7 in areas that Wolves were entitled to but didn't take up. Means there'll be over 50,000 home fans inside the stadium.

If he's fit i'd play him at right back on Saturday. I'd play Guttierez in front of him because they work well together and play Ben Arfa on the left, Tiote & Cabaye in the middle obviously.

Steve Brewce is the 8/13 red hot favourite to get it. Curbishley's at 3/1 and then after him it's Lee Clark at 9's.

This is the team I would like to see but with Raylor in place of Simpson.

Totally agree with you. Fair play to him.

eh ?? To simplify it for you we beat Villa at home last season. Out of the 23 games we've played so far we didn't win any of those corresponding fixtures last season. For example last season we drew our game at Blackburn so this is the first time this season that we're up against a team we beat in the same fixture in 10/11.
