I agree. Previously Real used to get torn a new one for playing an open game but its a very tactical match and a tad dull. Hopefully the semi finals of the CL are better than the last two matches.

Tickets can now be purchased at Cafe Drummond, The Cavern Record Shop and One Up (all Belmont Street). Presumably a few quid cheaper than purchasing from Thiefmaster.

Interesting but they're still only going to sell at the club shop or on the official website.

Mickey Mouse cup. This is worth a watch though:

It's been a damn sight better than the Copa Del Rey final!

Crikey, Spurs v Arsenal has started nicely. 3 goals in the first 12 minutes!

Rule 47(b). "The previous player's club is not entitled to any money if the player in question is pish."

I can't see what harm would have been caused with a trip to the likes of Leeds, Millwall or Cardiff!

I think a British Cup would be great and would potentially put bums on seats.

Mine came to about £900. Mostly athletics finals, swimming, cycling and the football final.

I thought it was a stone wall penalty and a red card, as per the current rules. That doesn't mean I endorse the last man red-card rule though, obviously.

The players should know the rules though.

Cracking grand prix this morning. One of the best I've seen in quite a while.

Game over

Considine, what a stupid cunt.

Stonewaller!

1643: Goal for Fernando Torres! DISALLOWED! Ouch. The Spaniard is played through by Florent Malouda and he rounds the keeper and slots in well... but the official's flag is raised for offside. It was marginal, but probably the right decision.
