    You can only have a ticket if you remember…

    Being on one of two coaches heading to Plough Lane for what turned out to be the (then) second lowest top flight attendance of all time (the lowest had been Wimbledon v Luton a couple of weeks before). Both teams were lucky to get 0.

    Gabriel Batistuta

    Same! Serie A at that time was exquisite. Almost the epitome of football.

    Did you continue queuing and give you name and number in case of returns? I did, and got one. We lost.

    Best Winger in the League

    Not the best winger in the league, but gives us discipline, shape and a tireless work-rate in the position. He's an invaluable member of the team.

    Jamie Allen

    He didn't. His league debut was coming on against Cardiff after Marosi got crocked.

    Brown kit?

    This is correct. Westwood saved a pen but they got the rebound for their first.

    Obviously I have no idea what actually happened, but I got the impression he wanted to be top earner, we said no, so he went somewhere that would pay him what he felt he was worth. The sourness seems to have come from the fact that it didn't end up being a step up when he did that. I don't...

    I thought he didn't make the most of a couple of good situations. I thought he played better at West Brom, where he had far less action around the goal. But even whilst not at his best, he got the crucial goal; that's what you need.

    He thinks they had enough back to deal with the danger and shouldn't have conceded in the ways they did. I mean, he's right, really.

    Birmingham City take the word 'embarrassing' to hitherto unheard of places. It's almost Herculean.

    Penalties

    You don't want lots of soft penalties every time a player goes down in the box, but some of the ones we haven't got this season have been silly. MvE against Charlton and EMC against Birmingham were particularly outrageous, though the latter the ref was unsighted.

    I was being daft; you didn't specify this season. Jokes are shit if you have to explain them, aren't they. 😂

    Referee

    I thought booking them was right; told everybody he wasn't going to take any shit. Very little real nonsense after that.

    Also: who gives a flying fuck what Sheffield United fans think. One of the grubbiest fanbases in the league.

    He still clearly has the class, but where were the lung-bursting runs, power and verve?
