Return of the Poison Pen

Whatever did or didn't happen on the training ground last Sunday - Secret texts and money taunts? What else did footballers ever find to talk about? - you can be sure Louise Taylor had a lot of fun writing this.

But not half as much as I had reading it:

Newcastle's manager won a UN commendation for anti-apartheid campaigning but as Carroll waved insouciantly to fans at Doncaster it seemed Hughton had suddenly lost sight of the bigger picture.

Yes, Louise, that's exactly what did it.

UPDATE: Spot the subtle reference in her match report too. A lovely bit of shoehorning.

aaaaaargh... I wish I hadn't clicked on the links after deliberately avoiding any further articles on the subject since last Sunday. Mirrors and MakemLovingCows should not ruin the remainder of our season...
3 points tomorrow, another goal from AC and who knows - a public reconciliation?!! (yeah, I'll keep taking those pills :)
