Tuesday 26th of July. £20. :-) Free coach travel to season ticket holders. Although I'll have to wait until Friday as I only had 1 away last season. Probably because it's Friday night but the allocation is only 2,441.

I was just about to post the same request. I can't take Pamplemousse because of my blood pressure tablets, but that picture from him didn't do me pressure any good either!

Reminds me of possibly apocryphal Peter Ridsdale story at Leeds. That player from Stoke (ISTR) was with his agent when offered a weekly salary so staggeringly high he looked across at his agent with raised eyebrows.. Ridsdale immediately raised the figure by another £X k a week!

Perhaps my arithmetic is correct?!

The rumour I saw on one of the aggregator sites on my phone (not this 'ere desktop) was Rafa Silva from Sporting Braga. The Portugal connection makes sense (2+2=5) as he was in the Euro squad alongside Jose and Cedric and he's an attacking midfielder who can play wide? Any opinions?

Websurfer and ziggee, a Troll Tag Team! :-)

References among the fish? Isn't 'young Jack' a bit of a tautology? Though I'm not sure when a Pike is considered fully adult.

Various versions apparently.. http://www.fsf.org.uk/campaigns/safe-standing/what-does-safe-standing-look-like/ More to the point: http://www.safestandingroadshow.co.uk/the-case-for-safe-standing/case-for-3

Typically in Germany where they have it you do and it permits cheaper season tickets. I've got an age where when I jump up when we score I sometimes feel cramps in my legs but haven't yet got to such an old fart stage that I can't see the advantages. Accepting that on my rare away trips I may well have to stand and it's no great shakes for me.

I only saw a couple of minutes of highlights of the game but thought J-Rod was moving a lot more freely and speedily than he was at the end of last season. What impression did you get?

Christ, you're stupid! :-) Sorry mush, you led with your chin. I couldn't possibly say if i agreed with you..

just seen the brief highlights.. McQueen looked strong (but not a penalty - good tackle) and Rodrigues looked livelier than the end of last season. It might have been 30* but he looked to be moving freely.

Amen.

Perhaps they can borrow Barnet's ground, or Orient's? :-)

:-) depends what you need the car for.. I'm not really practical enough but bangernomics works for many.. Might do Man U away, see various friends upt' north, do a bit of flyfishing and hit Canal Street to flirt with the butches! At least with the group stages planning is easier and you can choose as I'll probably only be able to afford 1.

I was wondering where Lincoln Red Imps came from; I thought somewhere anglophone but big, like Malta..

Good point. I wouldn't mind Inter, you understand! ;-)

My reaction, and I only scanned the article...

:-) I fancy Fiorentina or Sassuolo, but then I do like my Italian food... Still, glad to see you're ready for the 26th August! Cookies cleared, low cost airline web pages open (maybe even DFDS ferries'..) and off we go..

I wonder if we have the same list? :-) I couldn't possibly say who I think qualifies as that could be classed as an ad hominem attack... :-) Perhaps Reed should stay silent? Or perhaps say he's a bit worried about our midfield and has no confidence in them now now we've lost Morgan and Wanyama..?

Cheers! I know how it all works in rough principle, it's the details that are the hard work.. :-)

Cheers, keep up the informative work, it saves having to search the 'net.. Nearer the time you couldn't do a list of teams and possible airports? ;-)

Cheers. I'm sure WindowCleaner understood my interest. ;-)

Seems appropriate that this morning a packet arrived: my new Saints season ticket. Can't wait for the 26th August either...

What makes you think something's afoot?
