It will be my first time watching a match live at Old Trafford, living in London makes it hard to go down to Old Trafford on a regular basis and that's without taking the rate at which the tickets get sold out into consideration.

 

Are you a season ticket holder at West Ham?

 

Yeah, home tickets for a Man United game are like gold-dust, without thinking about the waiting lists they have. Without stereotyping too much, a lot of tourists from abroad visit Old Trafford (and Anfield) making it harder for English-based fans to go.

 

I am indees a season ticket holder at West Ham, I stand behind the goal to the right of the camera (I say stand because nobody sits in that area of the ground :lol:). Takes 3 hours to get there from Bristol and across London on the Underground but definitely worth it!

Not the ideal debut that Begovic could have had for Chelsea by conceding four goals in a friendly against New York Red Bulls.

 

Mourinho has claimed that he was tired.

 

What's the worst debut you've seen from a footballer?

Unquestionably Jonathan Woodgate's debut for Real Madrid.

Here's a name from the past:

 

Former Liverpool and Leeds striker Harry Kewell has been appointed as Watford's Under-21 coach.

It's terrible! There are so many hoops to jump through before you can get a ticket for a Man Utd home match. First you have to become a member before you're even allowed to try and book tickets and the membership for 2015/16 is a one-off payment of £32 that can't be refunded. Then after that you have to have a phone conversation with someone on the Man Utd phoneline to "register your interest" in buying match tickets (as if trying to buy match tickets on the Man Utd website isn't showing interest :drama:)

 

The tickets for matches against the top teams such as Man City, Chelsea & Arsenal were not even available to buy on the day of the fixtures being announced by the time I got home from work. It was the same with the last home match against Bournemouth as well.

 

I can imagine the journey home would feel twice as long for you on the days that West Ham lose :lol:

Within 18 minutes of his debut for Manchester City. Fabian Delph has suffered a hamstring injury in a 4-1 defeat by Real Madrid in a friendly. Oh dear. Not the debut that Fabian would have wanted there.

 

Also West Brom have suspended takeover talks with a unamed bidder to end any hopes of them having new owners this month.

That's great to hear, Old Trafford is a very awe-inspiring stadium to watch a match at. In some ways, I prefer it to Wembley.

 

If I'm honest, its felt like football hasn't stopped :lol: Especially with the Europa League and the change of manager at West Ham from my point of view. Still, can't wait to get back to Upton Park on August 15th for the Leicester game and the last ever season at the beloved Boleyn!

 

Yous will be fooked by October lol!

Louis Van Gaal has said that he may leave Manchester United at the end of his three-year contract to order to keep a "promise" to his wife. He has said that he intends to give up at the end of his contract in 2017.

So when you travel to the West Ham home matches do you go sightseeing in London or do you just travel straight back to Bristol?

I have done in the past, but we normally just go straight home now. I normally work the Sunday after in exchange for my boss letting me go to matches with our using my annual leave!

Frustating news for Jack Wilshere as he has suffered a hairline fracture to his right ankle and could be out for six to wight weeks. He was injured by a heavy tackle in training on Saturday.

 

Jack "glass legs" Wilshire... almost feel sorry for him these days.

Well West Ham won't have to worry about Europe hahaha.

All our best players rested to keep the score down against Arsenal instead :lol:

Take a look at this! It is called "My Premier League Life" and all you have to do is choose a team from the Premier League and enter your date of birth then loads of facts & statistics about that team appear such as "total number of matches played in your lifetime" or "club beaten most in your lifetime"/"club lost to most in your lifetime"

David De Gea will not be playing against Tottenham on Saturday as the saga of whether he'll move to Real Madrid continues.

 

In other news. Manuel Pellegrini has signed a contract extension which will run until 2017. We'll see what happens there if he doesn't win anything this season. Doubt he'll last the whole of the new contract extension.

I was looking at that for Bournemouth earlier (as they have only done it for Premier League teams :( ). It's all good fun!

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has signed a new four-year deal with the club which will keep him in his position until 2019.

The De Gea saga is so odd, handled so badly by Man Utd reading between the lines. Real Madrid know they can get him for free next year, and Ramos was using Man Utd as leverage to get a new deal. Looks like his head has now gone, but Real Madrid are prepared to sit it out. It's like a game of chicken.

Manchester United top of the table (until 5:00 PM) after beating Tottenham 1-0. Let's hope for all our sakes that after 38 games they will be top as well.

 

Louis Van Gaal kept the signing of Kyle Walker quiet! :kink: :P
