I get that they're a distraction, but was it ever confirmed that they can damage someone's eyes? I always thought that was just an urban myth invented by grownups when they were all the rage in the 90s.
I've never really got on board with the whole 'Ricoh is soulless' thing. It's a new stadium, nothing's really built with whatever soul is supposed to manifest itself as - that's something created by moments and memories in the stadium.

Fleck was quite often the furthest man forward chasing things tonight, which was great as far as his workrate goes, but there were a few times where you'd want to see Tudgay busting a gut up top.
I was going to say if it was a goner you could go up with your confirmation number, but I remembered that's people who haven't had theirs sent out.
On the plus side, this is you:
I went on a site to look at the odds and found that I hadn't realised Van Persie coming joint third as World Cup golden boot won me some cash, so I've put it on some silly scorelines I won't jinx by posting.
I think someone put a load up again on Sky Blue Way when the return was announced too. (It's also possible they were there anyway and I just didn't notice, but these seemed too colourful and clean to be old)
Screengrab the confirmation and check they're in your purchase history and you're golden. The confirmation email seems to have the successful hit rate of a drunk Freddie Eastwood.
They really had to make today the first game back, if we were officially 'back' but then still playing at Sixfields tonight because it's short notice there'd be far more uproar than the slight bodge job of getting back home at the first opportunity.
