What a dreadful idea. The richness that England has with over 100 professional clubs moving up and down the pyramid system is the envy of all other countries. The German Bundesliga is seen as the pinnacle of fan led leagues in the world with the largest attendances and low ticket prices but they...

3 years ago the average Premiership wage was £21,000. Taking into account the top players wages many players would have been on approx £15k. Championship wages were averaging £5k. So even with inflation I doubt Mackie was on much more than £6-7k. Unlikely to be a huge increase clause if QPR got...

Went on the Football Special train from St Davids, which got to Liverpool early. Rather than have 100's of City fans milling around they put us on coaches and gave us a tour of the 'delights' of Liverpool before taking us to Anfield - probably for our own safety. I remember going through one...

Leicester at home would be better. Even with the optimism around LCFC at the moment there wouldnt be any more than 15,000

There is no way Birmingham will win the Championship Man u Leicester Sheff Utd Bristol Rovers

Cureton without a doubt. His goals have kept us out of the relegation battle.

Exeter City's greatest player of the last 40 years. RIP

I was in the big bank that day because my dad refused to be moved from his normal spot. We were like sardines and bearing mind the capacity was about 16,000 for the whole of the ground, Sheff Wed definately had 4-5000.

I am sure Steve Finnan has played in all leagues, all domestic cup competitions, all european competitions and international competitions.

With Colchester & Millwall next for Tranmere I would say they have to beat Brentford. If they lose I reckon 48 points would be enough for City to stay up (just).

Seems to be the way many clubs are starting to operate and that you have to have a ticket to get in, with no cash payments at the turnstayle. WEnt to Bristol City v Leicester last night and had to go in the home end because the away end was ticket only, even though there were plenty of seats.

£150,000 to move the pitch sounds a bargain. The whole process is very scientific. A football pitch is not flat and lasers will be used to get the correct gradients running the length and then off to the sides. It also isnt a case of replacing the existing pitch, the whole thing is being moved...

Because I couldnt get a ticket for the away end, I went in the Yeovil end behind the goal. We didnt concede because of Jones' saves, we didnt concede because Yeovil were shocking in front of goal. By the end of the match the Yeovil fans were shouting for Skiverton to put on a couple of forwards.

Interesting statement bearing in mind that you call yourself 'Kingbilly' which indicates William of Orange and the Battle of the Boyne which is still celebrated to this day by loyalist bigots.

Having seen the nightmare that was F****t 5 Leicester 1, there is no way that they need Mackie. On the other hand Leicester could certainly do with some pace up front.

Went to both legs. Arrived on the football special train in Liverpool early and were herded into coaches to avoid us walking the streets. We then spent the next hour been driven around the 'delights' of Liverpool. Bearing in mind it was just after the riots it was quite an eye opener. Remember...

Leeds haven't lost their opening fixture for 20yrs. Last team to beat them played at St James Park. Any other promising omens out there?

Yeah but he didnt stick with them. Dont think he was too happy with Contador after Contador shafted Kloden.

Just got back from the Pyranees where we saw Stage 9. Our viewing point was 10 miles after the Tourmalet. Never took much interest in it before this year but am absolutely hooked now. Cant see Contador losing it now and I think Armstrong realises that its a bridge too far. Wiggins has been a...

On last seasons performances NO. Too overweight, too lethargic, tended to wait for the ball to come to him rather than run into space, out wide is not his position. Not good enough to fill Gills boots. Tisdale bought him as a good non-league player and that is probably his level.
