    Next seasons realistic aim

    I console myself with the thought that he probably really, REALLY wanted to go and would have sulked if we hadn't let him.

    Next seasons realistic aim

    I said this in the fanzine yesterday. When we went up under Karanka we got 89 points and that was just enough to squeak promotion, 85 in the season we lost to Norwich. It's a slightly lopsided season in that there are big winners and big losers, but we're currently 27 points behind Leeds -...

    Forget about Hackney, RVB, McGree

    It's the nature of the game, the players and this division really. You don't exactly have to start from square one every summer but it might as well be. The days of 10 year careers at the same club are long gone. The players don't help either, I mean we could all have probably guessed that Chuba...

    Aynsley Pears error against Sheffield Wednesday.

    Trouble is - and I thought Aynsley would have been our keeper for years - he's now costing them points on a regular basis. He let a fairly tame shot go under him against Ipswich on Good Friday that was the only goal of the game.

    Sunak’s press conference

    It has been pointed out that there are huge court backlogs, but suddenly Sunak can find judges and lawyers to spring into action to do Rwanda cases. Why don't they just **** off. I'm depressed every day by these *******.

    FA Cup replays scrapped.

    You know there's a very simple solution to this, but no-one wants to kill the goose that lays golden eggs. There's (in my opinion) just too many games to be squeezed into too short a time. Reduce the Premiership to 18 teams. Reduce the Championship, Division One, Division Two to 22 each. To...

    Jamie Vardy

    Always liked the one at the side of The Central; Juninho (I think) being marked by a pint.

    Football over Easter 1950

    The thing that always strikes me about the old North South divide in the third division is how many of the South teams became upwardly mobile once it went to Division 4, whereas a lot of the old North teams are still stuck pattering around the Second and Third divisions, and Conference and below...

    Botched tv series

    I thought this was a thread about Game of Thrones. Boy, they messed up that last series.

    What needs to happen over the summer then?

    It's been a dispiriting season, and we'll have players who don't want to stick around for more of the same in front of declining crowds. Worst case scenario is that we lose four mainstays - Hackney, VDB, McGree and Forss. Maybe Fry and Jones too. The Forss one is disappointing if true of those...

    Colombo, Kojak, or?

    And if Trevor Eve hadn't decided after two series of it that he'd had enough, we would never have had 70 years of Bergerac.
