Presumably temporary fencing will be erected around the pitch for the occasion to assure the safety of the players and management?


Tonev's gone to Celtic, don't worry.

So, how's it going...Lambo break down in front of the kiddies and tell them how it's morally wrong to be paid lots of money for being naughty and crap at work?

I had a couple of texts from the ground but 'The News at Shin' was not as detailed in its reporting as 'Sox Sports News' is

Two men on stilts, Bongo-Cam, Benteke-Cam and Kiss-Cam. Repeat for over an hour. Then came the clowns first-team squad.

Main thing was I bought a snowman. Even if I told Leeg it was a penguin!

I wonder how many took advantage of the 20% off half ST today. Even allowing for us being crap at home, those prices for PL games were a bargain.

Fool. I got this for Freddy:



£45 for a kids shirt. Extortionate, but they did have a 20% discount day.

They did drills with 4 - 5 attackers against 1 or  2
defenders (we only had 3 fit Cb's) they also worked with 2- 3 balls in quick succession.   Still struggled to score  :-[

It would have been nice if players came running out and clapped the fans. Just seem so out of touch with reality. At least we know okore is good to play
