Gethin

No chance. Would love a ticket as it's my birthday as well but bugger all chance with the demand for tickets the way they are. Just thought it would be a good out of the way pub to start off at, nice location and not too much hassle to get to the ground. Problem with West Ham on a Sunday, as Tommy said, is that most of the City will be shut, then most places that side of town are s***.

Fair enough - doesn't tie up from my visits there. Used to work near there and it was a good stopping off point on the way home - never eaten there but the beer's good and if the sun's out there's a good patio by the river. http://www.fancyapint.com/Pub/london/captain-kidd/181

Captain Kidd by the river in Wapping Overground 2 stops to Whitechapel and then easy to get to the ground

He was never coming to us and now he's not going to the Mancs. That'll do

Love the way Allen turns away. Nothing to see here ref, no no....

Did Sky get an interview with Sherwood or one of his staff after the game. I switched off a bit after the Brendan interview and they hadn't by then

That's a bloody fantastic picture.

Translation: "f*** you Moyes"

Was great in Doctor Who

Doesn't look like it - mate goes through there regularly and mentioned what looks like the same one as Cymrococh:

Men of Harlech has never been a rugby song.

There's a lot of support for Liverpool, Everton, Man United & to a lesser extent Arsenal in South Wales simply 'cos until recently the Welsh teams have been so s***. Growing up in the 80s, Newport County (who I always went to watch) went bust and had to start again, Cardiff and Swansea weren't exactly nice places to watch football unless you liked fighting - so most watched football on TV and Cardiff/Swansea got a couple of thousand at each game

It was. Losing it

"Bayern Munich - good luck with that" Cracking opening line

Mirror Group's Welsh titles (WalesOnline, Western Mail and Echo) are all f***ing dreadful. Got some truly s*** writers and even their rugby coverage is dire.

"I have this question but first here's my Twitter details" bloke was nuts. Didn't Miss Pushy Riot also say something about being the team previously being called Multiple Scoregasms?

Some good shouts there. Microbrewery is Zero Degrees innit - pposite the WRU shop outside the stadium? If so, Urban Tap House is much better but expensive by Cardiff standards. if you're drinking up Cathedral Road then the Cricketers is also decent. Cafe Citta opposite the Old Arcade on Church Street does excellent pizza, the Grazing Shed does excellent burgers and New York Deli does massive sarnies that will keep you stuffed most of the day.

Disagree with the "poor second half team" comment at the end. Start of the season maybe, but in a lot of games this year we've been able to be in control mode in the second half with the game already well won.

Please tell me this happened Sachin Nakrani ‏@SachinNakrani 6h Liverpool fans not held back at Old Trafford after final whistle. Reports now of a massive conga line down Alex Ferguson Way

Robbie Fowler just used the hashtag #menvmoyes

This is decent http://www.nutjob.eu/

Not that simple though - depends what the cost of the work to enable the 20% increase is

That would explain it - Conn always comes across as pretty balanced on Twitter and has done some excellent Hillsborough stuff. Man City fan I think? Would imagine he's on significant bonuses related to pulling sponsorship in.

It's weird. That article takes on a very different slant to Conn's tweets on it - and he wrote the article.
