None - gave my season ticket up last year because of working Saturday's so no more loyalty points
Within 6 months of that I got a new job 9-5 Monday-Friday ffs.

Going to Wigan next Wednesday though.

Nope. Distinctly under the weather so I've let a mate have my ticket. Take it you are?

Can't tell me after that game that:

A) We're not naive;

B) We didn't deserve at least a point;

C) Referees don't actively hate us.

Reading have had NINE penalties in the league this season. NINE. After last night, I'm convinced a decision was made at ref HQ which determined we, under no circumstances, are allowed any decisions. Those two in the second half are actually beyond belief and comprehension. First one is absolutely unbelievable - their lad just takes out Wells as he bursts through. The second is even worse - he just ploughs through our lad then gets up and kicks him again for good measure. We had a great shout in the first half when Scannell got taken out by Warnock, too, and every fucking corner saw theirs wrestling ours to the floor. WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO THE FUCKING RULING AT THE START OF THE FUCKING SEASON THAT WAS MEANT TO PUT A STOP TO IT? Wholeheartedly accept that on Wigan's sole corner, ours was doing it to theirs, and that should also have been given.

Not saying we were stellar - too slow in possession, too naive at the back to really deserve to win - but at the same time, it's hardly a level playing field when the opposition is allowed to do that without any kind of fall-out time after time.

It really is every week and it goes beyond a joke.

Selz is an easy scapegoat. He was bad, but Newcastle as a side looked fundamentally not good enough,

Besides I'm sure we'll see loads of criticism of Selz, but none of the cunt who played him. (He made Newcastle a football club again. He made us hope again)

My grandad passed away last night. It's news I had been expecting for a while now but it's still horrible when it actually happens. The strange thing was that because I don't drive I had to get two buses and a train from my house in Leicestershire over to his hospital in Birmingham, each one was waiting at the stop for me and left as soon as I was on board and he passed literally a minute or two after I got there surrounded by the whole family.

We still don't know for sure what was cause of death, he was initially been treated for an ear infection but lost over four stone in two months so we suspect he might have had some form of diagnosed cancer as few other things can cause that big of a weight loss so quickly.

Pne fans are all very deluded, nothing shocking there.

Tomorrow is the big day everyone in this town has been waiting for. The big one. Notlob come to Bury for a Monday night clash for the first league match between our two sides in 17 years. I wasn't into football at that time so my first proper derby, so really, really looking forward to this.

Since this is a monday night game on Sky and all ticket bs, Gigg Lane sadly won't be sold out but still, Bury will be vibrating tomorrow!

but to lose at home to Blackburn after scoring first with a squad that cost millions to assemble is one hell of an achievement.
