A couple of nice pics from the Liverpool game taken by someone on AM.com.. stadium is starting to feel like home. I love it.
I'm up again (was there for Liverpool game) on Saturday, and the Tuesday after for the CL. Then *maybe* Bolton away, and *maybe* Fulham away..

No manager should ever be sacked after 12 games in charge, the club showed their 'class' on that one. Newcastle are the same, and that is why they have won sod all.
If two or more teams are equal on points on completion of the group matches, the following criteria are applied to determine the rankings:

(a) higher number of points obtained in the group matches played among the teams in question;
(b) superior goal difference from the group matches played among the teams in question;
(c) higher number of goals scored away from home in the group matches played among the teams in question;
(d) superior goal difference from all group matches played;
(e) higher number of goals scored;
(f) higher number of coefficient points accumulated by the club in question, as well as its association, over the previous five seasons.

I think that the results of the matches between the teams involved decide position before goal difference I can't say for certain without looking it up, but that would seem to make sense.
EDIT: It looks like I'm second in the table to Brize...
Thanks for that, I never realised that the away goal rule was counted in the group stages between teams.
Quite cunning of Mourhino to engineer a loss to WB and make it look authentic. And the coup de grace was Terry resetting his booking sheet by dissent. Or would his previous booking not have counted in the knockout stages anyway?
chin up Jaffa at least you got the prize for the #1111 post.

Got coach + match ticket for the Bolton vs. Arsenal game in the post this morning.. £22 for the whole thing, got to love it.
I'll be there supporting the home side. Arsene Wenger always enjoys his trips to the Reebok. Is it your first visit? You're right talking about a full day, the motorway can be busy. It should be a good match.
No, yellow cards and suspensions are carried forward from the group stages to the knockout rounds.
Terry hasn't quite reset his booking sheet: players are suspended for one match after picking up three yellow cards, and again for every odd card thereafter (fifth, seventh, etc.).
First visit yes.. enjoy the match.. not so sure. Bolton are usually the team that rough us up.
I saw this reported earlier today and it gave me a bit of a chuckle I had the misfortune to witness one of Mr ******'s officiating shows firsthand recently (I believe there was a football match trying to take place between Hull and Wolves at the same time). So well done Adam Catterall.
I understand he's deemed no longer up-to-scratch by the Premier League, but why does that mean we have put up with him in the Football League?

I guess. Our away support is excellent - I got in with the away fans, stood all gane, sung all game. Made it worth going.
Hmm, so that means Spurs could be even with them in the standings after Saturday.
I could not take the yids beating us. Couldn't take it.
So you mean that just wouldn't round off a wonderful week? It would for me.
Anyway, on a more important point, SAF showing today he's still got it, Man Utd capture Larsson on loan what a Loan signing that may prove to be. Looking over at the 606s there is a lot of 'You can't win the title on the cheap' (From Chelsea fans, I presume)... kind of reminds me of 'You can't win a title with Kids'... Hmmm... Long live SAF!
