This. Players turning their backs on a shot, one of my pet hates in football. It's a defenders job to stand big & take the hit. You see it happen all the time in the modern game in all divisions, in all teams. A defender goes out to close down the attacker only to turn side on at the last minute. It drives me nuts. On a seperate note. I noticed Alex Inglethorpe was on the bench last night. Probably a little reward for his work with the under-21's this season which is a nice touch if that's what it was. But where was Mike Marsh? I didn't see him. Was he ill? Anyone know?

Yes it has, several times. It's just not been done since Sky think they invented football in 1992. We've done it 5 times ourselves: 1899/1900 finished 10th - 1900/01 Champions 1904/05 winners of Div 2 - 1905/06 Champions 1937/38 (last complete pre-war season) finished 11th - 1946/47 (1st post-war) Champions 1962/63 finished 8th - 1963/64 Champions 1964/65 finished 7th - 1965/66 Champions In 1976/77 season Notts Forest won promotion finishing 3rd in the old Div 2. The following season, 1977/78, they were Champions (us as runners up). The next 2 seasons after that they won the European Cup. Having said all that, will be a phenomenal achievement if we can do it this year up against the 2 oil barons

what did Keane say? I turned it off after the last pen

To be fair though, after this weekend, Sky are showing our next six matches. If you include our last 2 (Utd & Southampton), thay will have shown 8 out of 9 - all of our fixtures, bar one (Cardiff), during March & April. They know we're the best team to watch at the moment. And they haven't released details of May's viewing yet.

Played 34 games in all competitions. Scored 3 goals or more in exactly half. Blimey!

Tony Barrett just tweeted this link http://jewishnews.co.uk/watch-horror-tackle-israeli-football-league/ Unbelievable! I know it says he has a serious ACL injury but how the hell did his leg not snap?!

Section's video is brilliant. The bit where the girl repeats '...meat grinder' & then he repeats it adds the handle - fantastic

Just to go slightly off topic - when we're not on TV I go on to RAWK simply for the one solitary good thread on their football forum, it lists a shed led of links to various streams for the game. It's very handy. But, against my better judgement, for some reason, I had a peek at their post-match thread this evening. One question - do any ex-RAWK regulars know who the hell the poster 'Phase of Play' is? He seems to be professing to be some kind of highly qualified, top level coach & he's utterly revered on there. They hang on his every word. If you ask me, the guy is a complete fraud.

This is one of those few times that being in your 40's seems like a bonus!

I agree with most that we need a central midfielder, especially one that can actually tackle. Must admit though, that as soon as Brendan said he saw Stevie's future in that deeper role I'd resigned myself to the fact that we wouldn't be going after anyone for that position. Perhaps one other small crumb of comfort to take from this window though is that Everton, Spurs and Arsenal all failed to strengthen their squads too. The guy Arsenal signed isn't even fit! Obviously Everton & Spurs are on our tails for 4th but that's very much in our hands. I honestly think that we could reel Arsenal in too, especially with the terrible run of games they have coming up, which includes coming to Anfield. I think the two oil conglomerates will finish 1st & 2nd, 3rd is still very much up for grabs though.

I don't have BT Sport (watched the game on a Russian sopcast stream). Did they say anything about Mirallas' ridiculous dive in the first half? How, in the name of sanity, was he not booked for that?

You're totals are wrong. They only have 4 League Cups. Therefore it's 41-39 in our favour We win. They don't

Club Ambassador - Yes Coach - No. His spells at Celtic & Tranmere were shockingly bad

''Everton finally figure out a way of getting hands on a trophy''

Re: Enrique not being ready What the hell is it with players these days?! Some of them practically get changed pitchside. Annoys the crap out of me. Why the shite are they not told to be ready for any eventuality? OK so they need to warm up usually but if the gaffer needs to make a change immediately you should at least have your sodding kit on, including your shinpads & boots! Why do they need 2 pieces of footwear to watch a game? Although it might explain why some of our players over the 15 years appeared to be playing in their slippers. Remember the good old days when all the sub had to do was whip off the big brown woolly jumper & he was ready? I really am getting old...
