    Newcastle

    It does sound a little ridiculous on first reflection but then they paid 25 mill for a 30 year old Chris Wood. If FFP is limiting their rebuild scope, then a similar fee for a 3rd choice striker with scope to develop, while they invest bigger money in more urgent areas, is not such a crazy idea...

    Always had a soft spot for academy players and I just thought he was going to be a great keeper, was going to play for England and be our next Oggy. Was gutted when we sold him.

    I thought he was excellent overall but could have carded them on a couple of occasions for pull backs.

    Iniesta on a free if we get promoted, just to seal this absolutely bonkers season? Iniesta to leave Vissel Kobe but vows to play on

    Saw this on the Bristol City site

    On the subject of Bristol City, why is that we receive all the ire from Sunderland fans for the draw that sent them down and not Bristol City?

    Afraid I’m being greedy at this point and holding out for 2 adult tickets together, even if I end up paying through the nose for it. Really want to take the missus with me. It’s been a difficult year and she’s a fully converted City fan. So would love to treat her to the match and a weekend in...

    Think Robins has got the highest PPG record of any city manager ever. (Phenomenals per game)

    Thread for those looking for final tickets

    Also looking for 2 adult tickets, traveling over from Czech Republic. Willing to share my in-depth tactical knowledge incessantly throughout the match, or sit there in absolute silence, as you prefer. Will reluctantly also wear a naughty nurse outfit if that's the tipping point, but drawing the...

    Surely we should be allocating the spare tickets on here based on Likes to Post ratio. I've spent 10 years on here carefully posting only things I think will get a like, for exactly moments like this!!

    He’s only 33 though. If he’s not ready to stop playing yet, and his game relies on positioning and anticipation not pace, he could easily play another year in the Championship with someone and another 2 or 3 in the lower leagues. Think it’s too early to be coaching for him.

    It’ll be 1000s of corporate tickets left empty because no-one fancies little old Coventry and unfashionable Luton.

    I’ve booked my flights already. Now just need to find a way to get my hands on 2 tickets. Prepared to do unspeakable things for them.

    If it’s true that Kelly has been released and signed a pre-contract somewhere else then these performances have been so unbelievably professional and at a level I bet even he himself doubted after all his injuries. Incredible. Love what he has given this club over the last few years.
