  1. In their defence, we played them just before the cup final and at the end of the match the stadium announcer wished us all the best for the final. They stopped leaving and gave us some generous applause. Mind you, that might have been because we were playing Arsenal.
  2. That's interesting. I'll start phoning round tomorrow. I've got about 110 square metres to do.
  3. Ah no. All the old familiar faces are leaving us.
  4. Agreed. There was no need for that, a little magnanimity would not have been out of place. I was SO pleased when they were relegated. Is that sad of me?
  5. I've just googled her pictures. To be honest I didn't notice her face.
  6. The problem with those is that every time she turns round the jugs go flying.
  7. Thanks for that. I seem to remember at the time that MLT's testimonial was supposed to be record attendance on account of no segregation.

    Clegg

    Vince cable is even worse than Clegg. Nothing but loonie toons from him.
  9. Then you need another tele. What happens when the footie is on?
  10. It was within the range of variations expected. To compare with the previous games you have to take into consideration all the other variable factors. In my view 31000 is very close to a full house. What was the maximum capacity taking into account the segregation and leaving aside the corporates?
  11. A touch of class.
  12. Only £5? Bugger. When I bought my usual seat I paid £15. What counts as an old git these days, over 60 or over 65?
  13. Sure, why not?
  14. I'm still in the changeover from Sky to Virgin. I effectively wanted multiroom and HD and a cabled installation was more practical than a satellite broadcast. Now I can watch the footie in the conservatory on Monday nights without all the earache. The broadband is very good. I still need to switch off Plusnet just as soon as I get my missus a new email address. Plusnet were ****ing me off with constant delays and outages.
  15. Yes, it was the other ones that he didn't give that raised a few eyebrows.
  16. They don't play there any more but the Arena has other uses. I hear that Elton John went down quite well.
  17. 'If you build it, they will come'.
  18. Man Utd prefer to have a section of the crowd who are once a season visitors because they buy all the Ryan Giggs bedspreads and Wayne Rooney face cream so they restrict the total number of season tickets.
  19. Americanisms such as 'regular' instead of 'standard' or 'normal'. My clock and my bowels are regular.
  20. Make no mistake, he would have gone if the takeover hadn't happened. He was under a lot of pressure from his wife who wanted to stay here.
  21. What's a thousand or so bums between friends?
  22. 30,713 is just about as near to full as you're ever going to get.
  23. I made it five completely empty (10 seats) and five half empty, or should that be half full?
