A great jump on a corner and a marvelous header. This is by no means a surprise coming from
Plymouth striker Rory Fallon. But until few days ago, those kinds of attempts
didn't bring a lot of attention. His club are struggling in Coca Cola Championship, while Fellon
himself is far from the desired form.

Like many, many fans, I suffer from a ridiculous superstitiousness on match days. Whether it's
which part of my wallet I keep my ticket in, or making sure that every last possession in my house
is lined up at strict 90-degree angles, I'm on it. I've gone through several phases with pants, and
this particular "irrational" fear has led to a quite farcical situation whereby I have to cover my
eyes

Their last appearance was in the 1982 World Cup. This time they beat Bahrain, 1-0 with
Plymouth's Rory Fallon scoring a goal just before half time.
The All Whites had to go through some very anxious moments in the second half as Abdulla Omar
was brought down in the box by Toney Lochhead for a penalty.

Among the performers who have lit up this burgeoning Championship campaign are some familiar names.
Michael Chopra has so far justified every last dime of his weighty fee, Kevin Nolan has buckled
down and rehabilitated his reputation as an all purpose midfielder-cum-forward, and Adam Johnson's
sleek skills on the Middlesbrough wing have helped Smogheads forget the injured Stewart Downing.

I won't write what I wanted to write after watching the Kansas City game, because the more I
kicked it around, it was a trite and cliche angle. The game was exciting, and the team fought as
hard as they could (in the second half). Reckless desperation is always pretty fun to watch, but as
DCUMD noted, a lack of defensive concentration (which is not a skill but an effort) ended our
season.

first steps. His rehabilitation has begun and could take 6 months to a year.

Newcastle manager Chris Hughton makes two changes to the side which was beaten at Nottingham Forest
on Saturday. Jonas Gutierrez and Geremi both come in for Peter Lovenkrands and Marlon Harewood.
Geremi hasn't started since the 3-1 win over Plymouth last month, but we have to think his
experience is what Chris thinks the team needs tonight.

With Reading season-ticket holder Lanterne Rouge out of the country, I was handed a Royals freebie
for the second time this season on Saturday. Stopping off for a few hours en route to Clapham where
I was staying with a Forest fan ahead of the televised Sunday game at Plymouth, I arrived at
Reading Station to realise that I had forgotten my toothbrush.

Chis Hughton has admitted he may need to change things around a bit against Plymouth today after
Newcastle's first defeat of the season at Blackpool. Nile Ranger - could he get start today

My selections for last week almost made me a little money, but with accumulators almost is not
enough. Liverpool to beat Burnley, West Brom beat Plymouth and Sunderland beat Hull, but Charlton
(who had a 100% record up until this match) could only manage a draw at home against Southampton.
It wasn't a result anyone [.

After Newcastle's disgraceful 6-1 defeat at Leyton Orient in pre-season, the fans were told that
Chris laid down the law after the game to the players, and made it very clear that performance was
utterly unacceptable for a Newcastle team. Chris Hughton can we expect all-out performance against
Plymouth?

36 games for Arsenal (17 more than last season) 20 goals and 13 assists (both of which lead the
team) and the ability to score absolutely incredible goals: but for some Ivan come lately, he would
have easily been Gooner of the Year.
There isn't much to say about Robin, we all see that the quality is there, we just need him
healthy.
