Very sad to see some posters leaving - notice that StLandrew & pilchards have announced their last posts today. May be worth contacting them to get their views (if you don't have them already) to try & encourage them back.

As usual the BBC stats are complete carp - according to them neither side had a shot on target in the first half which is strange as we were one up by that point!

Looks like Sven is the man, apparently met Mandaric in London yesterday and was at the game today.

I believe it is also very popular with the Eastern Europeans as well. I know that a number of lakes had problems with the influx of Polish people in particular not understanding the catch & release policy we adopt over here.

Great - sounds like we pretty much dominated the game. Hopefully that will give RL a bit of a boost and 7 from 9 now, closing in on the promotion spots and keeps the village boys down the road quiet.

Boro down to 10 men as well

Talk about the positive side of being relegated to L1 I hate the feel of cotton wool - so that last time I needed an injection at the doctors they don't bother with the pads of cotton wool and let me stick my finger on my arm to stop it bleeding (good job it ws in my arm!!) Not keen on insulating lofts for the same reason.

Just thought I'd take a look at the latest odds. We're still joint 2nd favourites for promotion according to Corals at 9/2 for the title (Huddersfield are favourites at 7/2) and 11/8 to get promoted. Have to say at just 9 points off the lead, more than double your money for promotion sounds like a decent price.

It always happens Mack - it's like dissing your mate on the first tee before you've hit your tee shot! Fair play to you for coming back on though.

In the shadow of Mount Huscaran in Peru - managed to get a connection on my phone to see we'd beaten Yeovil 2-0 last season. Most disappointed coming back as I flew back through Miami, managed to see that we were 2-2 against Bristol Rovers as my flight back to London boarded. Thought it must have been at least 15 mins since the final whistle so was gutted when I got back to find out we'd lost.

With Burley in charge? I doubt it unless he wants guaranteed L1 football next season.

Yeh big f*ckin LoLZ mack!!!! Um remind me, which team is in the relegation zone tonight?

and 2 road wins as well!!

Talksport just mentioned that Pompey are complaining about overdue payments from Genoa - everyone in the studio just laughed given their CVA arrangements. If it's true, then go on Genoa - keep your money in your pockets!!

You can envisage the new shirt sponsor now - Ocean Bankruptcies

Only saw the moto GP race but would have to echo the comments about the track - this needs to be a permanent fixture in the calendar. Just a shame it's miles from anywhere.

Yeah poss true we'll never know - its the I would win the double every time with Real Madrid that makes me ROFL. No problems beating Barca then!

Was going to put this in General Sports but the Muppet Show is definately where it belongs... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/b/blackburn_rovers/9009565.stm I know you want you manager to be confident but honestly Really Sam. and you did so well at your one big job at Newcastle.....

A few more skeletons about to be locked in the closet for good?.......

So basically, you're complaining that people are judging the pope - in exactly the way that you have just judged everyone who is against this visit. I think thats called hypocrisy and is what the catholic church is famous for (IMO). And please, just because I think that the catholic church should have paid for this visit and I am not catholic myself that does not make me a nazi or racist in any way.

Sorry to hear your news Darren. Having lost my mum a few years ago, I know the pain. Condolences to you and the rest of your family.

Pleased with this appointment, people need to be realistic about who we appoint. This guy has proven himself at this level so when does he 'become the finished article'. I thought you never stop learning. Lets just hope those who are showing a few negative signs actually get behind the team now and remember they are supporters.

I've been to Newport, RI as well in 1997 - didn't get to meet Antonio Fargus, or Michail Antonio either for that matter. HTH (or Tim)

Yep, Button has the F-duct so is carrying more downforce which in theory should give him more traction off the line - but Alonso is on the racing line. The first chicane at Monza is always interesting!

Would thoroughly recommend the book. If anyone has any doubts about our armed forces and what they have to put up with in terms of lack of equipment, then this will open your eyes.
