I missed that Leicester game because a group of us were driving up to Newcastle for a mate’s 21st birthday. I remember the score updates coming through on the car radio and getting increasingly pissed off. I did cop off with a Geordie slapper in Tuxedo Royale though, so not a complete write off of a weekend.

Wasn’t it Tuxedo Princess or was that a different place?

Two different boats that did the same thing. I think when they moved one, they used the other one in its place.

Never meet your heroes.

I have met DW, Legion and I think Percy but none of them remember me.

Around the same time I remember we beat Boro with a Yorke penalty after Neil Cox of all people had been adjudged to have fouled him.... or was it handball.... either way it was quite a soft penalty.
