Cheers

Yeah, noticed that. Hope it's just the club 'having a bit of a laugh' by excluding them from the footage just to get tongues wagging

Yep, I bought mine on 21st Sept and was charged £6.95 for recorded delivery.

I didn't think they could get any more tinpot, but Del Boy Catlin comes up trumps. And are we 100% certain that Allen doesn't make these articles up just to keep this thread ticking over?

This

Cedric has a dog called Juanmi?

Surprised to read that Dean Hammond is currently without a club. He's 'only' 33 so surely has a few years in the Championship or League 1 left in him?

Did you buy the Inter home game as part of the Europa League 3 game bundle? I did, but haven't received my tickets yet. Perhaps they are sending non-bundle tickets out first? (For some reason)

I watched the Serbia v Austria game this evening. Superb MotM (IMO) performace from Tadic. 2 assists and a well taken goal.

Goal for Tadic (off topic again!)

Long going off injured again...

And Tadic just got an assist with a good cross for Serbia's second (I know, off topic, but couldn't see an 'International Games involving our players' thread)

And duly scores in the first 5 minutes

Its one way of getting around the nut ban I guess

So, having paved the way for Boufal's return to fitness, it's now time for me to put the mockers on it with my suggested squad for the Burnley game... Forster Cedric Fonte Virgil Bertrand Romeu Hojbjerg Davis Tadic Redmond Austin Subs: McCarthy, Martina, Yoshida, Clasie, JWP, Boufal, Long Dropped/Rested/Injured: Targett, McQueen, Pied, Gardos, Stephens, Reed, Isgrove, JRod, Hesketh, Olomola

Works every time....

I'm gonna play the reverse psychology card and say that I don't reckon we'll see Boufal in the first team until November

Call me a sceptical cynical old fool, but if Boufal was on the verge of being available to play, wouldn't the club have been slipping out the odd video or photo teaser by now? History tells me that when the club 'go quiet' on a player it often means they are taking longer to recover from an injury than first thought... (Exhibit A: JRod and Gardos) Yes, appreciate that its been a busy period for the club so producing 'Boufal teasers' is probably way down the media department's 'to do' list at the moment. I guess if it remains quiet during the international break that'll perhaps be cause for a dose of pessimism.

I fell foul of this 'anomaly' a few years ago. I always used to buy tickets for me and my son using my customer number (just seemed like the logical thing to do at the time... i.e. why have two numbers when one will do...?). There then came a game where I couldn't get two tickets because "purchase history" was required for both and from that moment on I simply set up a new customer number for my son and used both to buy tickets from there on in. The difference between then and now is that I was able to persuade the ticket office to apply some common sense to the situation as my purchase pattern for me and my son was obvious from looking at my history. I guess this time it is out of the club's hands though as I assume they are having to follow UEFA and/or Italian authority rules to the letter in that only people that the club can prove to be 'genuine' fans are sold tickets. The hallmarks of the usual sledgehammer to crack a nut by the jobsworths in authority land.
