    Looks like the SPL is done

    Entertaining game albeit that the standard of the football has been more Northern League than Premier League at times. I've spent a lot of the game wondering whether the advertising boards in the corners are at an angle deliberately to reduce the space and stop Celtic's effectiveness at corners...

    Extraordinary post on the Sunderland forum

    Reminds me of a game we had at Bristol Rovers in the early 1990s when a Boro win would put us top of the old 2nd division and a Bristol Rovers win would put Newcastle bottom of the table. Hmmmm....

    Third Kit

    We should have worn it at Preston as they didn't appear to be wearing white. Were the tops of their shirts supposed to be very light blue or had the colours run in the wash?

    London hotels

    There's a newish Premier Inn right next to Wembley Stadium which I stayed at with the family in the run up to Christmas the year before lockdown and we thought it was a good option. Walking distance to the Tube and the Wembley area itself was quite vibrant on an evening so heading back to the...
