Thing is, if a player is injured, surely it is in their best interest to take the shortest route if they are just about walking wounded? (and was a plus for us, too, of course)
I've got the Tivo set and will watch it when I can. I'll be following the scoreline where possible, as will be at a gig that I can't get out of! Might be an easier watch than the game itself with the current Newcastle love-in that will no doubt take up much of the commentary/pre-match build up...
