Leicester aren't at risk of a points deduction anymore I don't think? https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/ckg54xkqnzlo

Stopped reading there... Potter took a club from the 4th tier of the Swedish leagues all the way to title contenders, won a national cup, then took the same team through several rounds of the Europa League, beating teams from much higher ranked leagues, only losing to Arsenal on aggregate (they won one of their games). Please could you elaborate on how Martin's achievements of taking both MK Dons & Swansea to mid table of their respective leagues is much greater an achievement than what Potter achieved?

His managerial record can be seen here. I know nothing about him, but he's averaged more than a point a games at every club he's managed. If he can do the same here he'd be a major success (albeit we'll still likely be relegated...). PL is a step up from what he has managed in the past though... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kasper_Hjulmand

Thank you for last season Martin Fuck you for this season Martin

Vincent Kompany was one of the top defenders of his generation with a worldwide reputation.... Whilst Martin has a big ego I'm not sure even he is deluded enough to think a big club is going to come calling for him anytime soon

I'd be surprised if he doesn't sign a small extension to his contract. He would get a huge pay rise and still know a big club will pay to get him if he continues as he has been this year

Live now For anyone who likes watching the ladies lose as well as the men!

I'm hoping West Ham lose on Monday, Lopetegui gets sacked and we can somehow convince him to work for us until the end of the season... Otherwise I'd want Will Still, but doubt he'd leave Lens for us, particularly as he's only been there 6 months

What an arrogant pr*ck....

Thank fcuk. Get well soon Antonio!

About to bat against Victoria. We did well to restrict them to 170 after they were 130ish-0 after 14 overs. Gonna have to bat well though

Welcome back (temporarily) Danny! Is my memory failing or was he the one who ended our county championship hopes a few years ago by putting on some rapid runs at the end of a Warwickshire s innings after we'd been pushing for the win? Masood doesn't have a great record but hopefully he helps us out

Hopefully we don't end up selling him like we did Tella! But yeah, great to see him doing so well

Vince has made the IPL auction. Will he finally get picked this season?

Some not great news for the ladies team https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/articles/cvgwv707xjgo

65% win rate managing at PSV. In the current market I can't think of anyone else who we would have a sniff of getting (albeit I wouldn't be surprised is RVN wasn't interested)...

Why is he still here?? 70+% possession with zero shots on target against what was the worst defence in the PL should surely be the final straw...

Whilst I think it's time for Martin to go I can't agree with this. The team he inherited was absolutely broken. Morale was at rock bottom after a horrendous PL season, anybody with any quality was sold (Clyne excepted), and basically the team has to be completely remodelled, which Martin did. Could we have done even better last year, absolutely. But before the season started nobody was thinking we had a squad to walk the league, and most of us would have thought promotion via playoffs would be an amazing success. He's been found wanting this season but let's not act like he didn't do a great job last season.

Delap is a good shout. Great player for Derby, largely crap for us, and the decent for Stoke. I'd suggest Skacel. Obviously was brilliant in the SPL, which would have been much closer in standard to the Championship at the time when we signed him. He did very little for us

We seem to have regressed over the last couple of years with composure in the final third - maybe the women have been watching the men's team?? We should be a couple up already

I'd like to stick with Martin but given he won't switch from the playing out from the back manta we need to get rid, and need to do so now. Hopefully the club have been lining someone up, though I suspect I'll be disappointed...

What could be bigger than coming home to the Saints?? Tbf he's right to be aiming a smidge higher

Stunned to hear today was the first time Delap has scored twice in one game in senior football! He's in his third season and cost £20m! That said his second goal was great play. If he can do that frequently he'll be worth every penny. Not convinced as yet though

So far so good for Chein Italy it seems! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c0r857n877xo

Personally I think it's stupider to host the final in the latter half of September... But to each their own I suppose
