What does everyone think my chances are of getting 2/3 tickets as a non season ticket holder?

Feel bad for Wigan, second year in a row that we have taken points from them with a dodgy goal.

Sorry about the grammatical error. Not sure which one it was now, doesn't sound like what you just described though, I thought it was just Spider-Man. You just shot your little webs all over the place and swung through the city, fighting bad guys whenever your spidey sense kicked in and you could get there fast enough.

FIFA have some diagrams on their website and while none fit this exact description it does have one that shows a player being offside when the first pass is made to another player who is onside who then passes to the player who was initially offside but at the time of the second pass is onside, the laws of the game state that no player should be called offside during this sort of move. For me McCarthy was fine when Roberts made the pass, the only question is whether or not the officials considered him to be active for the long ball that was initially played, I don't doubt that he was, but we got a bit lucky.

The difference is that, even if you are right, that the issue is still not clear, even after much debate and thought, while a lot happened between him being offside near the halfway line and scoring (Roberts could have quite easily tapped it in himself). On the other hand, decisions that have gone against us like the penalty at Sheffield United or the clear offside against Liverpool last year are obvious. McCarthy was also called offside several times during the game when he wasn't, so was Jeffers.

Same thought crossed my mind. That should hopefully open a spot for us, hopefully not on Eurosport again though as it is hard to convince a pub in the South to put Rovers on when Spurs are playing.

It looks ok to me. I have to say I'd be reluctant to buy it. I bought Spiderman on the xbox and though it was fun at first zipping around the city and throwing yourself off of a building every now and then it got boring very quickly and gave me no reason to ever pick it up again. I would imagine that this may well be the same, I'll stick to things like GTA I think.

Bought Madden 07 a few days ago and I have to say that it is a great game. It is a blow not to have Madden in it, but the commentary is less obvious and probably better for it, no sports game, no matter who they have do it, can not become annoying after a few hours of play. The graphics are great and the gameplay itself is really good. Still quite a few things that could be improved, but overall it is worth buying and for anyone who has ever liked Madden or any American Football game I would think that you will enjoy it.

Had we found the extra cash in August I doubt we would have got him. Villa would have matched us and I am sure that he would have chosen to link up with his old manager. If we had wanted to make a move the best time would have been earlier in the summer or back in the January window (that was complicated by him signing a new window). The only real shame is that a young, yet experienced, affordable, realistic and identified target slipped through our grasp and went to a rival club. Hopefully Hughes and the team will be hot on the case and finding another option to come in during the January window (please God not Dunn, I think the physio earns his wages as it is).

A mix of thank the Gods and glamour ties would do me just fine.

Maybe they felt that season ticket holders would help to spread the concept through word of mouth.

I'm not in a position to be a season ticket holder.

It does actually say in the article that has been posted that Crook has denied this.

My only fear is that as a non season ticket holder I might not even get the chance to go on an away trip, which would be a bit of a shame.

By the way, is it just me or is Brown tiny?

I'm still against video evidence, just because I think it could slow the game down and it would be difficult to know when to use it and when not to. Something I think that is more realistic and could have much more of an impact would be reviewing games afterwards and punishing obvious cheating.

He said in an interview that he faced a penalty from Todorov (I think that's who took it) last year and he thought he'd go the same way.

Groin strain, as a precaution.

haha fife, I am generally of the same view, but the past few games I have predicted wins, so I have to keep it going.

--> QUOTE(Ste B @ Oct 1 2006, 03:19 ) 448923[/snapback] Whooo Hooo.. how about making a home game. I try and I also make it to away games that are certainly less fashionable then UEFA cup ties in Amsterdam or Paris. However, I would love to be able to watch my team in Europe and limited finances and time would mean that those trips would not only be great fun but would be relatively easy to get to and affordable. Sounds like a tough life prestonblue!

I'm sure that he will get a new deal if Hughes thinks that he deserves it, I would presume that is how it works. However, the fact that Sheringham or Speed can play to a ripe old age (for a premiership footballer) doesn't mean that everyone can and that we should hold onto Tugay just because he has been a good player. He was wonderful last season, but he needs to prove himself again this year in around 15 matches before we should consider offering him a new deal.

3-0 Rovers...feeling good about this. We need to keep the run going and a win could make the table look quite nice.

I would keep the same price for the group stages, though I would start charging season ticket holders. £10 for a season ticket holder and £15 for the rest would seem fair, until the knock-out stages at least.

Ajax or PSG away would be great. Definately going to make it to one of these.

As everyone has said so far, fantastic yet again.
