I think the FSA have been lobbying for it for a while so he responded to a question about it whilst in New York, guessing it was about how fans could drink at the World Cup but not in England. There is no suggestion he's actually going to do push for this to happen, he was just answering a question and it's a slow news week.
I get the idea that it should be down to the clubs if they serve it or not rather than banned. Too many idiots at football in England to make it work though.
It was quite a novel experience drinking at Rugby and NFL games I've been to but a completly different sort of atmosphere [Post edited 24 Sep 15:29]

I didn't mind him starting at the weekend, falling behind after 20 seconds and having to chase the game with 10 men was nothing to do with him starting really.
I wouldn't start him every week but playing at home against a poor side isn't the worse idea especially as he did well for an hour at West Brom a week earlier |

Puts a doubt on if Burrell will play at West Ham as he won't get back until the day before |

This might be part of his new training regime |

yeah it sounds like I'm down on the team which I'm not, a lot to like about them and really enjoyed it all so far, I just think there are a few warning signs with the lack of ideas when teams put players behind the ball, we've a lot of players who have similar skillsets so we become a bit predictable to play against. Mind you the majority of this division are no better to be honest and have similar problems. |

I think the wide players are good but very inconsistent with their final ball, potential to be good enough but over a season I just think we lack a bit of quality. We have a squad who can make the playoffs but it won't take much to knock that off course and we're not the luckiest club. |

Madsen did well to get in that after his first half performance |

He is very predictable though, everytime he cuts inside and shoots and most of the time it's blocked. He does need to vary his game a bit but great he got his goal and hopefully he can build on it |

I think we lack quality out wide and lack a playmaker in central midfield to actually make the playoffs but we should challenge.
Injuries is our biggest issue still, for all the talk of how great we are doing on that front at the fans forum we are losing at least 1 player a game through injury at the moment, Vale has pulled out of Ireland squad so no idea how long he's out for.
I've enjoyed the first 8 games but you can make a good case to say it's not going to be any different again.
If you compare results to last season it's 3 points better off.
Portsmouth away +2
Bolton/Oxford - Same
Blackburn - Same
Cardiff/Leicester - Same
Middlesbrough - Same
Charlton - Same
West Brom +1
Preston - same
The next batch before the next International break we took 3 points from those 7 games last season so room for improvement
West Ham/Ipswich - Lost
Derby - Lost
Birmingham - Lost
Swansea City - Lost
Southampton - Lost
Burnley/Coventry - Lost
Lincoln City/Sheff Wed - Won
I think we'll have a better idea after those games |

I imagine Saito and Smyth couldn't do 90 minutes so they were saved for the second half. Neither would have been ideal in the number 10 role anyway. Lloyd would have made some sense though |

Personally think the League Cup is great, get some cracking matches in it, last few finals been good as well.
I'd rather pre and post season tours were scrapped rather than a major trophy |

No idea what we'll do but I think we'll have a better idea of how good we are |
