We played Newcastle at home on a Friday night in around 2003? I think we played Southampton on a Friday night away the season before as well off the top of my head.
It is interesting the Arsenal game is on a Friday. In the time I've been following the Gunners, this is the first time they've played on a Friday so it'll be strange but fun.
would add that while a Friday isnt that great for fans it does mean the players have an extra day of rest for the following game on Tuesday against Southampton
Well, our most famous match on a Friday was that one on the 26th May 1989. That was also shown on live TV.
Oh yes!!! How could we forget about that one?!
I recall watching it in my mate's house. There were about 10 of us and we all went up to Highbury afterwards then went back to our local and stayed there all night.
Arsenal 5 (Pires and 4 x Henry) Leeds 0 was on a friday night. Confess I had to be reminded about that one. Can't imagine Coventry's fans are too thrilled but TV rules the roost.
The right result will mean a great start to the weekend.
tickets still tbc - anyone have an idea as to when they'll go on sale? (Red member)

It was something on Talksport I only caught the end of. I may have got this wrong but I thought they were talking about an English youngster we had got hold of?

You probably misheard it as I'm sure there would be a lot more talk about it if we had signed someone. You never know though I guess.

They've been talking about our 16 year old youth team player Danny Crowley. Attacking midfielder. We nicked him from Villa last year. Getting rave reviews. Roy Hodgson even went out of his way to seek him out and talk to him last year.

Played for Villa's under 16's when he was 12.
One for next season I reckon.
Ah, so DavidT was half right. Haven't heard about this guy before, sounds hopeful though.
It has to be said that a lot could be learnt from the way that German football treats its fans. Ticket prices are far lower over there for the equivalent level of football, which also doesn't hurt the success of those clubs.
Shame we didn't know that weeks ago or we could have charged them more.
Serioulsy though - did you know PL clubs get a kickback of around £200,000 a year from the PL to help with fans travelling to away matches? It can be used for transport or anything that the club decides - but it's mostly used to fund subsidies on ticket prices.

Just as Man U fans begin their 45th we start our 15th. Evidently they can talk the hind legs off a donkey.
But that's enough about Moyes.

Looks like a very good young player.

Still a QPR player. They want to sell him.
I wouldnt mind Remy helping Giroud but we need a guy to replace Walcott as well.
The Ox came through an hour of a reserve match yesterday.
We also have Gnabry as an option on tne right.
I'd like to see either or both ASAP. No sense in delaying transfers if you have the need and money. Both will definitely add something.
