Listening on the radio in Thailand, could someone fill me in on what Greeno's reaction was at the end towards the Leicester fans?

Same here, the radio commentators do a great job of painting a picture of whats happening, but when you can't actually see it, it's is nerve racking stuff i.e when they hit the cross bar near the end.

It used to be even worse: I remember reading live text commentary of Palace play off game while looking on live score feed which was minute or two faster. When live score announced FT, mate and I sat through those lagging two minutes waiting for a miracle to happen. Real miracle.

Mug support
Proper muggy support, the only time I heard anything off them was a brief chant when they got off the tube at Upton Park at about 2 oclock.

Keeping tabs on Tomkins maybe? Although he should have known JT was sub. Cannot think of any other player those C*n*s could thieve of of us.

They can do one. Unless they are planning on silly bids for any of our players...

How long does Tomkins have on his contract ? They are also after another keeper cos the bumbling Brazilian is off in January apparently...

Tomkins - 14 months
Noble - 14 months
Green - can talk to other clubs from January .

All of them know how much their skipper gets paid .

The last player that they need is Noble - they must have about 8 midfielders. I think the next few weeks or months should involve us sitting round the table with all 3 of the above and getting them tied down to new 3 or 4 year contracts. If we do go up, these are the backbone of our Prem team IMO..

One thing I have to ask is I got into the ground and was watching the end of the Chelski vs Arse game but West Ham fans were cheering when Van Persie scored the last 2 goals? What is that all about?

I swear I saw Romford giving it a double fist pump too :wink:

On the final whistle he went running along the front of them to the East Side as if he scored....one of the Leicester players pulled him up on it

Yeah I mentioned that earlier in the thread. The bloke refused to shake Green's hand, and Green seemed to be explaining his actions to him.

Don't get me wrong, Green had taken **** and missiles all game so was right to give some back, and the City support were propper muggy, but I was strangely impressed by a player standing up for his own fans.
