I don't think so. Essentially he is now a 1st teamer, but due to his age he doesn't have to take up a squad place.

Does Reveillere have a club?

Apologies if this has already been posted: http://www.thesecretfootballer.com/articles/the-secret-footballer/24353/sad-tale-of-adam-johnson-and-sunderland-afc/

Before all the money came along, staying in the top division probably wasn't the be-all and end-all that it seems to be today. It is obviously nice not to be relegated, but to only win a handful of games every season to achieve this is rather depressing and difficult to watch. I am not...

Reminds me of an inept away display at Brentford that pretty much did for big Mick, with similar chants from the away end after the match. This time however the players (on paper at least) are a lot better.

I think that Pantillimon will be glad that Vito is playing in the cup games.

Doesn't the extra game ban only apply when SAFC (rightly) appeal?

Random claim to fame: I was in the Christmas Eve special of Highway (with Harry Secombe) as an 11 year old.

For not booking Catts in the 1st minute (most other refs would have based on reputation alone) and the 2 advantages he played in the goal build-up, I would have to agree.

Prica could have had 2 on his debut - different league!

We could certainly do with more pace for counterattacking, which we might be more effective at when Giac is back.

Fifa is sometimes freakily prescient. I have just realised that when I was playing it last Saturday, PVA dislocated his shoulder and was ruled out of my season for 8 weeks. I am hoping losing to the Mags in the FA Cup won't have similar consequences.

Funny quotation from the Guardian's live match coverage on 81 mins: "The problem is that, beyond giving the ball to Wes Brown and hoping for the best, Palace don’t seem to have any particular idea of how they might score."

Maybe there'll be a charity auction of the shirts after the game.

Anybody else particularly interested in what Keane has to say about SAFC in his new book? I suspect that Ellis might be.
