There were more photographers there than has ever been known. A record 6 + sky sports were there, I think due to the fact that Pardew was there and the Joey Barton thing.

Doing a triathlon on Sunday, early start I think first swim at 7am. Not sure about Saturday, could do with sharpening up my footy...

got mine (renewal) in the post this morning. There was a bit of a delay between me sending the renewal forms and getting it back probs a couple of weeks.

Sounds like hard work. I did five football matches in 7 days earlier in the year but that's not really the same as you're not at football for as long. I also did a kids football tournament which was Saturday and Sunday 9am-4pm which was hard going. I think the Sunday night remedy was copious...

I'll be at Gateshead again tomorrow for the match against Newcastle XI so say hello if you do go.

I'm a bit puzzled by this, you seem to have edited the thread that said you had told them you didn't want paid - why do that? If you have made a decision to not get paid then you should have good reasons for doing that. But you must have known the reaction you would get on here by saying you...

The pics on my thread, Gateshead vs Rushden are with a 7d. Bear in mind that I am using a Sigma 70-200 2.8 and not a Canon lens so quality would no doubt be better with a Canon lens. I await critique on the pics I've just put up but I don't think they are too bad.

That's good news, nice one.

So effectively they are paying you for a job and are saying they retain copyright for their own use. So they don't have to pay you for use/reuse of anything you produce from the game and they won't sell on. Are you able to sell the images on to other parties or is that excluded? From my point...

and the Blyth player has had his leg stuck back on with black tape :D

Tony Match at South Shields last night, Northern Football Alliance so lower than Northern League. This was in the second half and the mist had improved quite a bit, probably because there was a cold wind blowing in off the sea. Anyway 1-1 draw in the end, missed the goal, defenders in the...

should be a good game. I'm covering elsewhere for the local paper, unless my game is called off which is possible given the forecast, in which case I will be going.

Yeah, we've got mist today again, waiting to hear from the sports ed if he wants anything from one match tonight, could be interesting.
