Disappointed Newcastle didn't get through, the schoolboy errors from the first game cost us but the match tonight was an absolutely superb attempt nonetheless. They tried but it wasn't quite enough to beat Benfica who are, tbf, a great side.
Just hoping for an excellent result for us on Sunday, Ben Arfa's back!
I want to see what he and Sissoko can do to the essentially crippled mackems.
Oh and a few of my friends are taking wagers on who'll get sent to the stands first, Di Canio or Pardew. Hrrrm.
I wish I could have made it to see the game but what tickets are being sold on by people who cannot make are going for £100
I'll get to see a derby someday!
