Apparently. And gave up as soon as it went 0-2. He’s a coward. We saw that with numerous instances when he was here (granted he was very young). The worst being the feinted ‘headbutt’ incident when he squared up to Gary Cahill at SJP Anyway, Sven Botman’s great and he’lll only get better.

Referring to Mitrovic, who is, IMO, the biggest coward in the PL Edit: reading back, original post was ridiculously badly written (blame the ludicrous London traffic that has had me on a bus for the best part of 13 hours today…)

Tremendous. Had half half an hour or so against the biggest coward in the PL, which was enough to make him cry off.

Yeah, it’s not on. They were worried rail strikes might get called making it difficult for people to get there. They were right…

Omar Richards. Was at Reading and looked a decent prospect then, bizarrely, Bayern decided to take him as his contract was up. Played about five games last season and they decided he wasn’t good enough. So became one of Forests 135 signings this window. Don’t think he’s played for them yet, not sure why?

They’d find their ticket didn’t work…

5 yellows in 7 matches in good going…

If the Tube was to be part of the strike I reckon this would be gone as well. Doesn’t look like they are though. Tbf I wouldn’t fancy trying to get to Brighton if the trains that run from the city centre to the ground weren’t on.

Everton tickets on sale this morning

No, although the tone of the journos referring to his injury would lead you to come to that conclusion.

Out of interest, what do you get out of being in your seat two hours before ko, when, presumably there’s hardly anyone else there, and not a lot happening on the pitch?

Sounds like he should be back fit before the the WC break. Good news

The fact he was captain of England U21’s and once made the senior squad suggests he was more than capable for a decent period of time (granted not at the time of that video).

The last time we ever saw Emmanuel Rivière darken our doors. I honestly can’t think of a worse player to get substantial playing time in the last 20/25 years.

This moving of the Spurs game (again) after TV fixtures (and it would appear to therefore be set in stone) have been announced is something the Trust need to be flagging with the club as unacceptable. I can’t even work out what the problem is here? Surely Spurs European commitments were known in advance of the initial TV announcement? And if they weren’t there should have been a massive asterisk next to the new date saying it was still subject to change. Not sure how practical it is for the club to attempt to refund fans for travel/accommodation already booked, but it’s probably something that needs to be done (even if NUFC didn’t have much of a say in the move).

If he’s fit it’s not a risk

On the Monday Night Club on 5 live tonight. Spoke mainly about Graeme Potter but also plenty of NUFC stuff. Seems like a top bloke. Will be available on BBC Sounds shortly.

That actually reminds of this clip from Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads: Terry’s rant starts at about 6:35

Fair enough

Not trying to be provocative (much), but how do you feel about Remembrance Day displays? What do they contribute to supporting the team?

Ridiculous beyond belief if next weekend isn’t on. They’ve made the gesture this weekend, everything will stop for the funeral next Monday, that’s sufficient.

Match ticket will be refundable obviously. The club might (and I have absolutely nothing to back this up with) offer some kind of compensation towards travel. Would have no chance of that under Ashley, but Mandy and co may see it as good PR (as well as being the right thing to do).

I think the difference is (and I wasn’t there so don’t know this 100%) that the trains that get you from Brighton to Falmer (where the ground is) were still running so although it was a nightmare trying to get from Newcastle to London, then on to Brighton, home fans weren’t overly effected. This time sounds like those trains are off which would make getting to the middle of nowhere that is the Amex, an absolute nightmare for everyone and probably lead to total chaos.

I think they were just worried they’d start to organise something and subsequently a strike would be called and mess everything up.

They’re not doing one this season as with all the issues with potential rail strikes they decided it wasn’t worth it. If you follow @dazcurry on Twitter, he’s the guy that organises them, distributes tickets etc, so if they decide to put one on for any other London games, he will have the info.
