Fantastic.

Any reason they don't have a sponsor? Is it that they're looking for one or that they reckon fans won't buy one with Venkeys on it?

Your pictures won't load for me, but I think number 2 on the link is Stewart Downing.

Reminds me of a mentally handicapped guy I always see in my local Cineworld. He's always got full kit on, but he also carries 2 or 3 bags for life full of jerseys around with him and seems to change throughout the day. I saw him a while ago in a shop near the cinema with a Maxi shirt on and then again inside 10minutes later with his Shelvy one on.

Game finished 2-1, with all three goals being marked down as own goals.

It was vaguely gratifying, but you know it just gave Ferguson smug fuel and he'll probably have something incredibly annoying and self-serving to say if asked about it during an interview.

I am curious what Shelvey said though.

He accused ferguson of asking for a red.

I was only half watching but didn't the ref play advantage and then the ball not go out of play for ages? And then he got booked for it when it finally did?

If I remember right, he played a correct advantage, but when the ball went out, just gave the player a talking to, then booked him for another challenge shortly afterwards. Or am I mixing up two different incidents?

“You’ve heard of Superman, Spiderman and Batman… but now there’s a new superhero in town.

“Newcastle United have today unveiled Whey Aye Man, a black and white caped crusader with the speed of Hatem Ben Arfa, the strength of Shola Ameobi and the reflexes of Tim Krul.

“Ideal for nights out and stag dos, it will also make an eye-catching outfit for home and away games.

"The costume is now available to buy in Club stores and Shearer's Bar, priced at £49.99."

“It is part of the Club’s new range of fancy dress wear, for men and women which include the NUFC Second Skin and the NUFC Toon Tottie garments.”

I was looking on youtube for some background on this whole Jamie Carragher thing, and found this video:

Which is awesome, but how is that a penalty :psyduck:

It was Carra's testimonial. They usually let a player get a goal on their testimonial, often with a soft penalty if they're not likely to get into a scoring position.

(Was originally gonna say this about Jan Molby but I can't find any interviews with him from his playing days and his accent now is just pure scouse. I wonder what it is about Danish people (and Icelandic people too for some reason) that makes them so receptive to picking up British regional accents?)

I thought it was Jason McAteer doing co commentary on a Liverpool UEFA Cup game a couple of years ago, when it was really Jan Molby.

The big match on Sunday afternoon in Cyprus saw second placed Anorthosis entertain sixth-placed Omonia Nicosia, however the match was suspended for 10 minutes in the second half due to incredible scenes of fan violence.

With an Anorthosis player grounded and receiving medical treatment, a flare was thrown from the Omonia away supporters which dropped right next to the group of men and exploded.

The scene immediately dispersed amid the explosion, however aside from being legitimately frightened it didn’t look like any of the players or medical staff were actually injured by the flare.

Watch the shocking footage below.

Steven Gerrard immortalised in England Where's Wally? scene

Steven Gerrard is joined by fellow England stars including Frank Lampard, Joe Hart, Glen Johnson and ladies team icons Kelly Smith and Faye White, celebrating 25 years of the pesky hide-and-seek hero in a poster designed by Where’s Wally? illustrator Martin Handford, which also features the Bobby Moore statue, the FA Cup and the Wembley Arch.

Posters can be collected by fans visiting the Wembley Stadium tour and Roger Maslin, Managing Director of the ground said: ‘Wally is such an icon and we are thrilled to have him join the crowds at Wembley to celebrate his 25th Anniversary.

‘He should feel at home surrounded by all the other legends that have played here.

‘Visitors will be able to go behind-the-scenes at one of the most famous stadiums in the world while they hunt for one of the most infamous faces (and hats!) in the country.’
Happy hunting!

Obviously there's a difference in culture, but whenever I hear commentary like that I like to imagine someone like Motson or Tyldsley doing similar.
