Apols if previously posted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSzRc-UWwJU The comments suggest that some people took this seriously...

Spot on. We should all take a principled stand, right up to PM level. After all, it's not as if the UK makes £squillions year upon year from selling weapons of mass destruction to the Saudis. Oh.

Thanks for confirming entry method. Yes, phone was showing the City ticket. Still wondering if, having set up my seat move for the Newcastle game, the system had also wiped the City ticket!

Thanks Bozza! From a locked screen I've been using double-click of Home Button to open Apple Wallet, rather than unlocking first. May be a problem...?

Did anyone catch the Peter Brookes cartoon of a fortnight ago?

Last night my season ticket mobile pass was rejected by an East Upper turnstile card reader. It's worked perfectly well up to now. I was told I now had to queue up at the ticket office and return with a paper replacement. Big pain. Anyone else had this? Ticket person suggested it may have been...

Amazing the Spurs game was stopped for several minutes so that a single fan out of the 50,000 present could receive medical treatment. Don't they have ambulances in Newcastle? Course, no more of this pussyfooting around under the new ownership. Anyone else threatening in future to hold up...

Nonetheless, people in the rest of the country will be scratching their heads at the irony of the city boasting Britain's ONLY Green MP being serially incapable of running a properly functioning and staffed waste management service.

Quite. The question that fans (as opposed to advertisers, sponsors and accountants) want answering is.... How big is the crowd?

Shocked that the CladStad's announcer (spoilsport) didn't enter into the spirit of things with that uber-tinpot Call & Response shtick:- "And the goal was scored by Neal Maupay, ... Neeeaaallll..." (cups ear playfully) BHA Fans: MAUPAY!!!! Cue (OMNES): Clad All Over (with...

I think there's another dimension to this. What you're seeing with Zaha is a man who has firmly entered the autumn of his career, knowing that, despite all those millions earned from the game, he will never realise all his boyhood dreams of playing at the very top level. That's quite a bitter...

Odd-looking character, Hughes. As a fresh-faced England youth hopeful, he looked like a young Boris Johnson meets Dennis the Menace. Now, at 26, he's turned into Albert Steptoe.

Fair point: guess I was thinking locally born and raised!

Raises the question: in this era of PL teams crammed with overpriced global superstars, how many other clubs have TWO locally-born first-team regulars?

Who's Ben Foster?

Shame. I was rather hoping this would be another of those oh-so-wittily subtitled HItler rant videos.

Who's the commentator? Seems it's Bri-uhn away at Loo-uhn. How very Mockney.

For me, it's a matter of contrasting affinity to club as opposed to country. Then there's all that horrific England baggage - Massed St George's flags [racists!]. Booing other countries' anthems [cretins!]. Spontaneously singing the UK's dreary national anthem during an England game. [Why?]...

. All I remember about Wenceslaus is that the Good King of that name was noted for looking out - particularly on the Feast of Stephen. Albion's very own Wenceslaus, on the other hand, often found himself looking out. For Stephens.

Every game, it's always the same. Whenever a corner is taken, and the ball is arcing menacingly over the penalty box, some unseen voice bellows, at deafening volume, "Awaaay!!" . Not just any old voice, this one has all the menacingly strangled articulation of a barking mad drill-sergeant...
