Jamie Ashdown for keeper

"There he is! Seat 3F!" :lol:

Fiorentina Cagliari Roma Sampdoria £2.50 at about 10/1.

Sky know about as much as Stifler does ffs.

Came in fairly comfortably. Had £2.50 on and it returned just over £32. I'm in class form at the minute like. Not winning every single bet, but since the day the mackems beat us I've taken out over £160 from my betfred account. Most of my bets have been £1-£3 stakes as well with the occasional bigger one; none over £10 though.

Best game I've seen from him today. Still not convinced, but a step in the right direction.

Lille, St. Etienne, Betis and Guingamp accumulator; all winning 1-0 at HT. Think it was about 12/1.

Bet he asked the stadium announcer to welcome him.

Good account of ourselves up to the first goal, then shite thereafter. We desperately need the lift that a new manager would bring, though. Cabella played very, very well and needs to start every game from now on, seeing as there's bot all to play for other than "top ten finish".

Crystal Palace HT/Spurs FT - 28/1 (first game for Pardew at home; crowd roars Palace into an early goal before normal Pardew service resumes?) - £2 Harry Kane fgs - 9/2 (DD/HH potential) - £2

Needed a Villa equaliser for a 50/1 6-game accumulator to come in. I hope Lambert falls down a fucking sewer hole.

Your mate must be doing well to get such secretive information. Is he Deputy Shift Supervisor at the hotel?

Bolton's Gerald Cid for centre-back.

It's probably my dad's mate from work, he's the absolute double of Colin Wanker and lives in the city centre.

Seem to remember a lot of people on this board wanting him as next manager a few years ago. I dunno how good he'd be, but I'd be cautiously optimistic. Heard good things.

He's freelance I think, so we might still have him commentating on ITV.

Muttley breathes a sigh of relief that Roy Keane isn't in the running.

3-0. We'll hold out for about 40 minutes and then succumb to the inevitable.

Genuinely don't think we'd get relegated even if it was Carver til the summer. We only need about 10 points to stay up.

Would tolerate Carver til the summer if we got De Boer. Sadly, we'll give Carver til the end of the season and then appoint him anyway because he's cheaper.

I agree with them being on TV this time; that's actually a David v Goliath cup tie. It's when they're on every single round, every single year playing PL/Championship sides in thoroughly uninteresting ties that's the problem.

I said it before and I'll say it again: Lee Hughes and Luke McCormick were imprisoned for causing death by dangerous driving and were able to resume their careers at Football League clubs. Whether or not you think Evans did it or agree with the terms of the conviction etc, this only goes to show how the media can whip people into a frenzy and highlight precisely what they want people to think/know about. There was barely any coverage of when those two got out of jail and started playing again. Two players who actually killed people (indisputable) can get pro contracts again but someone who raped someone (disputable) shouldn't get one? Reeks of hypocrisy.

Mason is probably the worst IMO. How the fuck a Phil Mitchell lookalike is considered mobile enough to referee PL football is beyond me. Marriner and Jones aren't far behind, like.
