    Currently Galatasaray 1 St Johnstone 1 with a few minutes to go in the Uefa Cup. What a glorious cross-cultural tie that is.

    Two difficult away trips in a row that. Dingwall and then Istanbul. Two solid draws.

    One of them a trip to a major European metropolis noted for its road bridge across a wide body of water, and then they were off to Turkey after that.

    Nice to see an English football crowd again in this Bomo v baggies game.

    Also nice to see Scott Parker wearing a tie clip, as if he's a hotel concierge rather than a football manager.

    I didn't know he'd got straight back into a job. Good for him. Seems like a decent club to pick, too.

    Just seen Liverpool played a couple of 60 minute games against Bologna in the week and they were wearing red shirts, black shorts and white socks. That'd had better not be a thing.

    It was a fuck up, apparently. Liverpool were due to wear our new away kit, but then Bologna rocked up in white at the last minute.

    Pickford is having an absolute shocker in this friendly. Looks like he's lost his ADHD medication.

    10 years at the Amex today. Think they were hoping for someone a bit higher profile than Getafe but it'll be good to go to the football again for the first time in ages, assuming they let me in with my dodgy island covid certificate.

    My Grandad was a season ticket holder for years at Norwich, but they stopped going once my Nan got too frail. I want to take him to a game this season as it's likely the last chance he'll get to go (he's in his early 90s now).

    I see the ticket sales are set up so they don't go on general sale until they've been offered up to a load of priority groups (regular attenders essentially). Do I have a hope in hell of managing to buy tickets on general sale (I don't care which game it's to) or am I going to need to get a favour from someone with a season ticket or something?

    I'd be surprised if you can't get a ticket unless maybe it's v a 'big six' team. There are hundreds of Brighton tickets are available for our third home game for example, and they've been on general sale since Thursday. Probably better to ask on a Norwich forum/reddit.

    Should be easy buying tickets for a midweek game against a nonsense club like Leeds or Arsenal.

    You'll get tickets easy, just be on the ball as soon as they turn to general sale.

    Given he had a season ticket for like 20 years, I don't think he went for the winning.

    There's winning and then there's giving Dwight false hope.

    How's Callum Wilson going?

    There's a Twitter account I saw once that reviews youth players from clubs up and down the country. I don't know why he bothers, every reply he gets is just people calling him a nonce and I don't doubt it either.

    No clue. Doubt it. He was a farm labourer his whole working life so don't think he has much to pass on, other than their house which I believe will go to my mum

    Nevermind, he played an hour. Gayle came on for him.
