  1. Cheers for the info, think I might email the stadium about the autographs.
  2. I'm going to be in New Hampshire this month and am planning to go to the Copa America QF in Boston which will hopefully be between Argentina and either Mexico or Uruguay. I can't find much detail on what the match-day experience is like at the Gillette Stadium though. Has anyone been before? Is the food and drink reasonable (price and/or quality) or should I and my son have something before we get to the ground? Do American stadiums have something similar to the UK where you can wait outside for the team in the hope of getting something signed (son will obviously want to try and see Messi up close if possible)? Will there be any Copa America merchandise on sale for these matches (and is it worth buying)? Thanks in advance for any responses.
  3. I think you're right, no incumbent British government has increased their share of the vote at an election since WWII, so seems unlikely that the Tories will do anything more than hold steady at best.
  4. But a long cup run is the perfect practice for the fixture congestion that Europa or CL football would bring, so why not acclimatise ourselves now?
  5. Born in Southampton, live in Dibden Purlieu off and on till I was 7, then moved to NZ. Came back to the UK to go to Uni (Edinburgh) where I started watching football again and seemed obvious to support the team from where I was born (helped that Scottish football is cr*p and/or sectarian).
  6. I miss when Carlton Palmer was on Final Score and he used to wind Crooks up all the time by (it appeared on purpose) disagreeing with every point he made. That was great TV.
  7. I'm not sure what Italy's CL TV deal is like, but I"m pretty sure the domestic league allows individual clubs to negotiate their own rights unlike the PL where its all centralised. If Juventus were able to negotiate their own CL deal then that would explain their inflated revenues.
  8. Disappointing, but compared to this time last season 4 places higher with 4 points more and almost double the goal difference. Not getting too worried (yet!).
  9. Between when Strachan left and Pardew arrived I would say Pearson was the only decent manager we had in those barren years.
  10. Great article. The Guardian has the better overall football coverage, but I've always liked the quality of the Telegraph's match write-ups.
  11. The second challenge by Fonte definitely wasn't a booking. The slow motion replay showed the Swansea player jumped over him, no contact made.
