    And both are probably off in the summer too. Tielemans almost certainly is, will be a top freebie to pick up, imagine there’ll be a lot of interest from most of the big six and abroad.

    BBC 'suggests' that if VAR were at Bristol then the home side might have got a penalty. Didn't see it, but not surprised.

    Because they usually fill the ground on match days and have the definite ability to get more in for other events they hold on a very regular basis.

    They put a good show on with bands allowed to use their own sound systems so they sound like they should, the catering is very decent and well priced (no bottom filling pint glasses though:() and after the show there is quite a bit to do outside/around the ground.

    Which kebab shop mate?
    Take it you never visited the bars and food outlets inside the complex :emoticon-0100-smile

    Oh, and a 10/15 min walk to the city centre dependant on how well you can walk so more than enough to keep anyone happy.

    Just realist and honest mate.
    I hate the ****ers but will not make stories up where none are required. The Arabs are doing a ****ing great job with no fanfare or noise.

    He wants a nice kebab after he goes to the Etihad on Saturday.
    I bet he won't ask you where to get one near Old Trafford. <whistle>

    I've never eaten a decent kebab in or around Manchester. I've spent a few years visiting Fallowfield and Blackpool...and they've all been as dodgy as hell. The curry is great...but after the one at Blackpool (Flames it was called ...and recommended by several bouncers), I'm done with them.

    You're better off with some minced lamb and one of these...

    Funny how things take you back. Mentioning center forwards, I suddenly had a memory from the past of my first season as a Spurs fan ,1953-54.It was the return match with Arsenal at Highbury and we had a newcomer at center forward named Dave Dunmore from York City.He didn't score but had a good game in a 3-0 Spurs win. Didn't become a world beater but a very good footballer for all that ,taking over from Len Duquemin with Bobby Smith,then at Chelsea,on the horizon. Memories!
