Newcastle V Spurs tomorrow - 3 days after the season finished

In Australia

Despite scrapping replays for "player welfare".

Ridiculous. I wonder who'll show up. If I was one of the players, I'd tell the club to **** off.

[LA Bluebird]

First team for both all travelled except those with injuries. They won’t tell the club to **** off because it’s written into those nice fat contracts they all have.

Player welfare my arse.

No you wouldn’t.

Travel first class. Pampered all the way. Jog round at half pace and with little intensity in a friendly. First class all the way back.

Sounds alright to me.

Just on the way home from the game, great to see a couple of almost full strength premier league teams in Melbourne, nearly 80,000 attendance at the MCG too. Not bad for a friendly
