Last night's ref

[Stafford Blade]

The BBC says it was a man called Friend.

I thought Nicky Butt reffed it last night.

 

[jpblade]

No Stafford you are mistaken. was a chap called K Nolan from Bolton.

 

[Stafford Blade]

OK. Match officials last night were N Butt. K Nolan and A Smith all of Newcastle.

Although I would love to see Alan Smith playing for us.

 

[Trevor Hockey]

I couldn't believe he allowed them to harrass him like they did. Several times there were up 4 of their players around him and the main instance where they tracked him from the Lane end to the kop after he gave us a decision outside the box at the Lane end.

THere must be a good macdonalds in Newcastle judging by the size of them all.

 

[Stafford Blade]

not many barbers though judging by the state of some of their barnets!
