When did Upton Park become the Boleyn ground? For my whole football like it's been UP, this season it gets swapped around.

Buy an Oyster card and see of you can get into a footy match

On a different note; clicked to see if I could get a ticket to te sunderland game and web site says there's availability in the Main Stand. Go to the choose seats screen and there's no seats available. Is this a common peculiarity?

[TCEvo]

Not sure, give the office a call?

Reminds me that I need to sort out tickets for Noble's testimonial.

As far as I'm aware, Sunderland game was sold out as soon as it went on general sale.

Anybody else think Kouyate's red card was harsh? IMO it should have been yellow at worst, wonder if we will appeal?

[TCEvo]

SB & DG confirmed post game that they probably would; agree it was very harsh as there was nominal (if any contact) & the B'Burn player had already lost the ball anyway so it wasn't a "clear" goal scoring chance.

Pleased that it made no difference to the outcome but don't want to lose Kouyate for three games now.

Just heard on the radio that we will be appealing. Good chance of success IMO.

Spiegel just signed a two year contract extension .
Does he not want to play any first team football? Unless of course , they've accepted that Randolph is too good as a number 2 and will let him go at the end if the season ..

Futureproofing. Adds value if we were to sell him & covers us in the eventuality that Randolph moves on (especially post Euro's as he's a chance to start for the Irish).
