Weird season: first PL loss at West Brom, a player sent off, no penalties in their favor - very strange indeed but wonderfull
We are 3 points ahead, game in hand - a return to the natural order
And we have 2 extra days rest before the derby - and they get kicked to pieces (literally) by Liverpool beforehand - ha ha ha

I'm of the same opinion Beefy. I for one can't afford every cup game on top of my season ticket but get to the ones I can.

The thing that gets my goat is how much it's mentioned by wider fans / media that our ground is empty. We have to remember where we have come from, may well be a further generation before we see regularly sold out attendances following capacity increase and planned further development.

They will come with time and our regular challenges for silverware


If you want some ammunition, we have a 98.7% occupancy from 14 home games in the league this season, I'd say that is pretty full for the first season with a new capacity - we also sold out of season tickets and have a waiting list of 'thousands' (according to the Manchester Evening News from last summer)


It's bizarre the amount of non-attendees we have considering. I'm not criticising anyone as I don't know their personal circumstances but it seems like there's a lot of empty seats despite us being sold out almost every home game.

I've failed to get tickets a couple of times this season, was trying at the last minute mind you, and then when I watch on TV/stream there's empty seats, it's frustrating.

Apparently th media home in on the exec seats at the beginning and end of each half when they're all inside having posh nosh.

Lets hope so eh?

I see Van Ghoul thinks you shouldn't book a player with a nice character. Fool

So by the same token, if we are to give leniency to a player who doesn't often get stuck in and "wouldn't harm someone", does that mean cunts like Shrek who abuse referees weekly or bogbrush who elbows someone most weeks when he actually on the field should then get yellow/red cards issued on their past indescretions?

Can't believe I'm saying this but he was simply answering the interviewers questions. He was digging for a response to why Mata was unfairly treated by the ref and although LvG didn't go with it at first, he then picked up on exactly what the prick said. Within a few seconds LvG had twigged and told him to move on, in no uncertain terms, but he still kept plugging.

It's the way Sky do things, trying to find a sweet little dummy for the Rag hoards to suck on when they don't get their way. Taggart was a master at it and led them all to water whereas LvG isn't that sort of bloke, thinking of the game rather than the media hype of the Rags.

Imagine watching a team who play against a poor team and can't even have a shot on target in the second half despite needing to win. Ha ha ha.

Will be around 90,000. The FA will allow them to add together both Saturday and tonight's attendances.
