    Last game - Forest v Leicester

    Could this become another Southampton v Spurs stitch up? I can see a situation where we're 3 points behind Forest with a better GD and 2 behind Leicester with a worse one - meaning if we win and either Forest or Leicester do too then we're in the playoffs. But if it's a draw.........

    Sheff W next 4

    They're in good form at the moment and their next 4 games are... Forest (H) Watford (A) Leicester (A) Cardiff (H) ....and their last game is M'boro (H). They could do a bit of damage to the teams around us.

    Is this why Barnes/Dicker/Hammond keep getting abuse?

    from another thread.... I've also heard people around me shouting abuse at a player for some poor play and thought 'that wasn't xxxx'. Perhaps some people are so anti one person that they mentally associate any poor play with that person - especially if there's a few of them together. I'd say...

    Should turkeys have the right to vote?

    We're often told that 'Turkeys don't vote for Christmas' but is that because they aren't allowed to? Maybe they would if given the vote - after all they're usually the centrepiece of the Christmas dinner so maybe they'd like all that attention?

    What is it with these Lancashire Championship clubs beginning with 'B' losing their managers - and is Blackpool next?

    Leeds v Soton & BHA

    Looks like they'll have the same problem as we had last year - playing us on Friday after playing Soton on Weds. Reason being Soton are playing Spurs on the previous Sunday and won't play on Tuesday.

    Did Poyet and Rodgers both blink first?

    Rodgers admitted that he wouldn't have let Carroll go to WHU if he didn't believe he was getting another striker in. Do you think Gus did the opposite - bought Dobbie in the expectation that CMS was going to Norwich? Reading the Argus it seems they thought CMS was on his way earlier on Friday...

    Is there a buy-out clause in CMS's contract?

    If we plainly aren't going to sell someone that could help us into the Prem then why would we be scared of the January window? Unless there is a buyout clause that he could go if another team offered £X Million? Depending on the value of 'X' there could be a few teams willing to pay that if he...

    The genius of UEFA

    What do you do when you have the two favourites playing their final group games and with the possibility they could both go out? It's quite simple really - you appoint a Spanish ref for the Germany game and a German ref for the Spain game. OK, so they could both still be eliminated but you can...

    How many Vicente's are there?

    Just went on the VC site to check the odds for Vicente first scorer. I found 'Vicente Rodriguez Guillen' at 19/2 and 'Vicente' at 10/1. I went for the guy with the longer name as it looks more likely he'll score :)

    Wednesday's ref

    Carl Berry - seems it's his first higher than League 1. Hope he doesn't try to make a name for himself.

    Your thoughts on the catering

    As there is so much comment (good and bad) about the catering I thought it might be interesting to find out what peoples thoughts are about catering in the different areas. Just say where you normally sit and if you're happy with the catering. I'm WSU and have no problems (although my order is...

    Supporters bar

    I'm sure I had read that the Supporters Bar would be accessible from outside the stadium but yesterday the stewards were saying that you had to first enter it to get to the bar. Looking through old threads I can't find anything either way - although it did say that Heineken & Symonds would only...

    League 1 transfer fees - have we all been blinded by the Prem?

    Looking at the discussion over Norwich's rejected offers for Bennett it's clear that most on here expected a fee of well over £1m. But looking at the fees that have been mentioned for other players I wonder if we haven't been blinded by the ridiculous money changing hands in the Prem. Of the...

    This on BBC just now.... 1252: One name worth mentioning is Dmitri Payet. The St Etienne midfielder is being very strongly linked with Chelsea, although Paris St Germain are also thought to want to sign him. He is a 23-year-old France international who has been at his current...

    A funny thing happened while buying my Watford ticket

    I went through the ordering process and chose 'AMEX' when asked for the Credit Card type. I then entered all the details and went to pay - only to receive an error 'card details do not match the card type'. I checked that I hadn't made a typo with the numbers but couldn't see the error. I then...
