Shut up baldy.

Had a lovely 16oz T-Bone steak there a couple of months ago. Nice place.

Why is RealAgentSouth continuing to post stories when he's come out as fake?

I Agree, it's rubbish we should be using his proper name. Let's call him Jay Rod from now on.

Seems from the Burnley forum that their fans think JRod is too good for us and they hope he goes somewhere better. Stating the fact we're relegation favourites and that Adkins is weird!

Yeah he was actually. Not really the same though is it. J Rod seems happy to go to another team as long as it's in the NW, looks like he's letting his contract run down as well as there's only one year left so he might actually be doing it to line his own pockets.

Extremely unambitious if true. I can't imagine a pro footballer refusing to travel a few hundred miles down the road when offered Premiership football and double the wages. A player who says he doesn't want to leave his cosy little area really makes them out to be a bit feeble minded, not sure we need those kind of wimps in the team.

One Year left on his contract. 6m is a lot of money, doubt it would get much higher than that unless there is an auction going on. Watch Fat Sam try and bid for every striker out there.

I enjoyed that book as well, some great anecdotes and wanted to get me playing the soccer Saturday drinking game!

Nothing makes me happier to know we're promoted and we can sit back and watch the other teams that weren't good enough scrap it out. Saying that I bet whoever wins the play offs will probably say it's better than boring automatic promotion. I wouldn't swap our place for either west ham or.Blackpool though.

We will not buy squad players. I believe we will buy better than what we have and the current players in the starting line up will become squad players.

That's what I thought, I must remember to point out if I'm arrested that my nan died 20 years ago, hence going off the rails.

Great pub on a match day, small little place that does great beers, not really for lager drinkers. Won the CAMRA pub of the year. Prefer the Platform Tavern and the Wellington in Freemantle myself but a great pub nonetheless.

Maybe at some point you could also try praising the team for being top with ten games to go. Just a thought eh? Would it really pain you that much or does putting a negative slant on everything arouse you that much?

This is why I think that when they don't win a game their belief in being unbeatable will be damaged and a run of games where they won't win will happen. Which could mirror us at the start, we felt unbeatable then lost, then struggled to get the points as our belief had taken a hit, we had plenty of time to rectify it though. Reading won't have.

Unless Reading score 14+ goals tomorrow night they won't be top at the weekend.

Squad rotation. We should still beat Barnsley with the team put out and it rests key players we need for the run in.

I agree here, didn't we only concede only 1 goal in Feb? I'd have thought Jos might have been a better bet.

Come on Watford!

How many of these stronger teams beat us? I knew that if we didn't get a win last night that there would be a lot of pansies whinging. We're still strong favourites to be promoted and there are loads of games yet.

I reckon Reading will only get 17 more points. After Leicester they have 3 away games, even if they're against fairly poor opposition they will drop points somewhere there, I don't even think they'll beat Leicester this weekend. The block of 5 games from Blackpool to us will be extremely hard for them. but if they come through that patch winning nearly all of them they they deserve promotion. There is still loads to play for for all three teams but I'm confident that we'll finish in the top two,

Ahhh thought it must've been a Saints fan who wrote it! I was just searching for Saints news in google over the last 24 hours and this article was in the top 5. So you're doing well getting it out there.

I was just reading this and thought about posting it. It is well written and nice to have praise but he worries me with the jinx he threw in at the bottom of the article about beating Ipswich to nil!

We beat Reading and we're promoted imo. All in our own hands.

This I agree with, to be promoted this season we have to be regular winners away from home as well as at home.
