Newcastle declined to comment on the record, which was surprising, because in my conversations with them they were extremely engaging and thoughtful on the issue, and it was clear that it was something they took very seriously.

'Oh yeah, Mike would encourage every player to walk off the pitch and give them a free Sports Direct mug for doing so. Just don't quote me on that'.

I like how they tried to maintain it for 6 month but the pressure of not being completely incompetent is too much to bear for our poor refs.

Protesting against something that is going to be scrapped anyway? Seems a little bit pointless to me.

Why is the FA Cup 5th round on mid week?

[Meenzer 16905]

Consequence of having had the winter break, I assume.

Yes, but everyone is rested and relaxed now, hence our energetic performances ever since.

It did work wonders for Liverpool as well.

Not really seeing as he wouldn’t be eligible to play until next season and we’d need to extend the physio room to allow for him and Carroll.
