his loyalty to Dortmund is second to none though. I wish he was at Arsenal.

The lure of a bigger payday and even bigger glory is usually a lure for many managers though.

Stability goes along way too.

I'm getting really fed up with Wenger. Yesterday was tragic. He got owned by Jose yet again. No one likes to lose but if youre defeated in a manner you can only respect fair enough, that wasn't the case last night though. I really don't know when Arsene Wenger will get a proper squad together.

Another concern is the amount of injuries that occur. Its crazy. A lot of it in my opinion is players being burnt out, over done because of the lack of depth but there are also a fair few pointing fingers at the backroom staff. Things havent been the same since Gary Lewin left.

Yes l agree with the burning out of players and Wenger is one of the worse at this and it will cost him dear later on in the season.

the thing to balance, and this is where you make the real bucks is balancing things. a fair few years ago Wenger use to rest players out of nowhere then that player would come back firing. the balance is between that and having start stability. its not an easy job but thats glory or failure.

I got a ticket for 17.50 rather than the 20 it would have cost had we accepted the Newcastle proposal. No reason for Newcastle not to discount their fans to go to Norwich.

No - it's only fair everyone else benefits from our inability to defend in the last 10 mins of matches

and Suarez will want his obligatory hat trick as well

Costing Norwich what? they were given 200k to subsidize away prices like every other team.
Even so that doesn't even matter because by ripping off every other team in the country for a trip to a garden shed they'll still turn a profit after subsidizing prices. Why would Norwich lose money rather than take 20 quid tickets? The whole point of this plan was to make tickets cheaper for the whole not for one.

As for Newcastle subsidizing their own. They could do but it would have a negative effect on their existing plan which is simply to offer every club in the league away tickets for 20 quid on the basis they receive the same back. Newcastle then spend the existing £200, 000 and whatever is needed from their own pocket to subsidize away travel. It'd work out rather cheap if you got away tickets for 20 quid and travel even cheaper.

Uefa has ordered a partial closure of CSKA Moscow's stadium after their fans racially abused Manchester City player Yaya Toure.

The sanction will apply to CSKA's next home match in the competition, against Bayern Munich on November 27.

Uefa issued a statement, saying: "The fight against racism is a high priority for Uefa. The European governing body has a zero-tolerance policy towards racism and discrimination on the pitch and in the stands. All forms of racist behaviour are considered serious offences against the disciplinary regulations and are punished with the most severe sanctions. Following the entry into force of the new disciplinary regulations on 1 June, the fight against racist conduct has been stepped up a level - resulting in more severe sanctions to deter any such behaviour."

Under the regulations, a second offence of racial abuse concerning spectators could result in a full stadium closure.

Not a surprise this happened given the location. For whatever reason we see fit to allow them to host a world cup though. Money talks.

Platini is little different to Blatter. Did you watch Blatters 'stunt' speaking about Messi v Ronaldo ? dumbass didnt even know when FIFAs own major events were taking place.

Adz are you watching this access given to SkySports. Would I be wrong in wondering if this has anything to do with local media ?

Only 1 minute on the clock, and lescott has already shown his class, nearly blundering possession.
