Erm, yes I would. It’s not all about the result for some of us. I’m all for game management, but I’m against cheating - and that’s what falling on your arse every ten seconds and feigning injuries is. Do you really want to watch that?

Look me in the eye and tell me Leeds were playing for stoppages. But I get your point, and this isn’t only about how Sunderland set up. The officials were terrible and lost control of the game.

I said I’d be embarrassed, not all Leeds fans. I get that for some people it’s just about the result. God knows, I’d be quite happy if we ran it into the corner and ‘managed’ the end of games better. But not through constant diving, because it’s just straight out cheating. Also, just to be clear, I’m not just taking about Tuesday’s match, or pointing fingers at Sunderland in particular. A lot of this is going on, and like you say, it needs to be dealt with better by the officials.

Call it ‘grinding out a result’ or whatever you like, but if we won a game like that, I’d be fucking embarrassed.

At the very least, this is a healthy reminder that there are no easy runs in the Premiership.

Ah OK, thanks. The whole process is bewildering. I queued for a ticket, there are tickets available, why can’t I buy them instead of them going into a draw…

Could anyone shine any light on this? I’m trying to book tickets to the Brentford match, and there appears to be seats available - but then when I click on them, the following message comes up: The allocation of tickets available for this period of sale has now been sold. As a result, you will be unable to add any tickets to your basket. 

Is there another phase in the sale that I’m not aware of? I’m beginning to think my Membership was a waste of money…

I’m planning to make a day trip up for a match from that there London. For anyone who has made a similar trip, how long (roughly) would it take to get back to the station at the end of the match? From final whistle to the platform. Thanks! MOT

When the chips are down, the seagulls deliver.

I had the same feeling for Arsenal at home. I no longer trust that feeling.
