God, I went with my son and didn’t realise there was such bedlam outside. For once our habit of getting tickets early by post and getting into the ground 1 hour before kickoff really paid off. We did however leave before the end as interestingly I could feel the chaos all around and it didn’t feel right. Have to say the atmosphere was very good humoured and the old ground was rocking at times. It looked really good with all that colour around. We also met Martin Jol on his way to seat and got a picture. I was tempted to ask him about the Murphy point from yesterday but thought twice about it..
Scary. Not sure how the club cannot take responsibility. The ‘sending tickets by initial letter into the crowd’ is something I’ve seen done before at the Cottage.

Footballers playing poker
Many football players have tried poker as a new career and played in big live poker tournaments. Teddy Sheringham, for example, has entered the World Series of Poker on several occasions. The former England striker needs to work on his poker game, however, because his biggest wins are from small events such as the 2005 Fahrenheit Poker Festival. In total, Sheringham has won close to $30,000 in poker tournaments. He probably made more money playing football...
Another English football player that was playing internet poker was Wayne Rooney. Gambling rooms like everest poker seem to attract many people, which try their luck winning. Fortunately for Rooney his habit didn't influence the level of his game (or wallet) and he is still one of the best football players in the world.
