Crisis?What crisis?

I was at St James Park twice last week. once for business and once for pleasure, although I didn't find it particularly pleasurable.

Business was this bloke Paul McGee , My employers are worried we are not dealing with change well and have no emotional resilience so booked us all on a half day session with this guy. Actually he was rather good. He packaged up NLP and CBT theories in very easily accessible ways, was quite funny and relevant.

It was definitely much more fun than watching NUFC struggle to a draw with Portuguese team CS Maritimo. The Toon were poor.It felt like watching Posh this season, a team lacking ideas and confidence and ball control.

We got to the ground early and watched the teams warm up. Maritimo spent most of their warm up time passing the ball to each other. NUFC took shots and ran round the pitch lifting knees high in a routine familiar to all of us who watch British teams warm up.Needless to say the Portuguese team's passing and ball control was exceptional, NUFC's was pitiful.

And the Posh continue to lose. 13 points and at the bottom of the Championship. My son went to see them away at Charlton last night. He said, as did BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, that they were the better team. But we still lost 2-0. League 1 here we come.
