Record profits again

and we are supposed to think that's great are we, season ticket rise after season ticket rise. Will they dare to raise it again in this financial climate. What happens if Inter knock us out, and thats before they have to pay the debt off.

Music
A guy called Gerald - Black secret technology: Innovative drum n' bass from the mid 90's from one of Manchester's electro pioneers, and a good listen
Barry Adamson - Oedipus schmoedips: Another soundtrack for a non existant film. It has it's moments but it is not one of his best.
Be your own pet - Get awkward: Reasonable indie rock that veers towards the punk end of things at times. There are no really memorable tracks though
Eugene Mcguiness - The early learnings of Eugene Mcguiness: Promising, indie/folk pop perhaps, there are a couple of crackers on it that the rest of the tunes can't quite live up to unfortunately. Monsters under the bed is a cracking tune.
Holy fuck - LP: I saw these on channel M and Clint Boon said he saw a bit of Krautrock mixed with Hawkwind about them. That sounds like a good mix and these Canadians make good on that likeness on this space electro rock album.
Ladyhawke - Ladyhawke: I wasn't too sure about this at first but it has grown on me to a degree. Anything that draws so heavily on the mid 80's isn't usually my bag, but there are some good tunes on it and you can't argue with that.
