Does anyone have the "Cost of supporting" table for the Premiership which details the average matchday ticket cost for Home and Away supporters?

"Newcastle United were the only club out of the 104 surveyed who did not reveal their prices."

 

I never got this at the time, surely it's not too hard for them to find out considering the prices are publicly advertised. It's not as if you walk up to the stadium and have to barter to get in with some shady figure on the door and then barter further with an even shadier bloke when you want your pie and pint.

KK's Defence wasn't as terrible as pundits want to believe, it was just an attacking team by nature, so there was a lot of space to exploit by default.

 

Darren Peacock & Barry Venison was a pretty decent CB pairing.

GK situation was a bit poor.

Warren Barton wasn't the best to begin with but grew into the role. Steve Watson before that was ok.

John Beresford was today's modern FB before today's modern FB was born!

 

Later you had Albert roaming forward.

 

Aww man. WHERE ME MAGPIE MAGIC DVD AT?!

Since we can't have Justin Lockwood commenting on Real Radio, can we find someone with deep pockets to bring over Neil Sika,  the commentator from the Columbus game, to replace the dire Mick Lowes?  Granted, he may come out with gems like, "Omeobi will convert for a one to nothing advantage for Newcastle in the ninth.", and describing someone from Trinidad and Tobago as, "The Trinidad and Toboggan", or even the classic, ""Alan Smith rubbing off Julius James... greco-roman style!"...but at least he has a smidgeon of passion.  Lowes gets more excited when the opposition score.

 

Ta-ver-ni-ay

Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis insists the club will not sack manager Arsene Wenger, despite their poor start to the season.

 

The Gunners have lost three of their opening five league games and lie 17th, one point above the relegation zone.

 

But Gazidis said: "He is not broken. He did not suddenly become a bad manager or out of touch with the game. It is complete nonsense.

 

"[sacking him] is a route we are not going to go down."

 

The dreaded 'Vote of Confidence'??

Ideally they would say 'Aye, you're right, we were a right bunch of f***ing c***s that day and we deserve every misfortune that comes our way' but maybe I'm too optimistic. It saddens me when I compare them on relegation day with Plymouth on that day and remember which of the two sets of fans are watching their club slowly disappear.
