BBC News - TV debates: How could they change the election?
My bet is that it is going to prove to be a totally pointless affair, nevertheless I will be tuning in, in the hope that someone gets punched or something.
Not sure what I'd prefer to see here.
A Huddersfield win would almost certainly guarantee the Stains stay in league one for another season. On the other hand, it would also help Leeds' get a grip on 2nd place.
Portsmouth confident of winning Uefa licence appeal
BBC Sport - Football - Portsmouth confident of winning Uefa licence appeal
Portsmouth's administrator is confident the cash-strapped club can satisfy Uefa financial rules and secure a licence to compete in next season's Europa League...
I hope Arsenal win it, if only to keep the title race interesting.
As for Spurs, well old saggy cheeks has trotted out his usual pre-derby bollocks about how Spurs are closing on Arsenal?
Erm, no.
If you had to choose between Gillingham and Southend, who would you prefer to go down.
I don't really like either club, but despite the pikeyness of the area, most Gills fans I've drunk with seem OK. And I'll always have a soft spot for The Cricketers.
Southend are a bunch of twats though...
Yes, it's shite and not good enough for a national stadium, but this was a pleasing comment from Harry Redknapp:
Isn't it funny how it's never the fault of this miracle worker? He's had MILLIONS to spend since taking over, hasn't he, and as ever, Spurs are MILES off the pace of the two...
A magical wonderful famous European night at Anfield, kop sucking the ball in, flags aloft, concopheny of noise blah blah blah...
I hope Benfica score in the first minute and we'll be able to hear a f***ing PIN drop. Season over. Bin dipping muppets.
...about their play-off chances. Dean Wilkins is too.
Southampton FC are worrying League One play-off hopefuls says Dean Wilkins From Daily Echo)
I can't help thinking it's driven by bitterness than any real belief that Southampton are really going to make the play-offs.
Would you have given it?
Personally I think it was a pen. Puyol deliberately ran behind Fabregas and into him, instead of trying to clear the ball. I'm even quite pleased he got sent off for it, as he was blatently trying to make his cheating look like an innocent mistake.
How long do you think the media will ignore EVERTON for?
4 Tottenham 30 26 55
5 Man City 30 16 53
6 Liverpool 31 18 51
7 Aston Villa 30 17 51
8 Everton 31 8 48
Now just 3 points behind Liverpool and with a very useful run-in. I think they'd need to win their last 7 games but you never...
Yes, MLS kicks off again tonight. Who are you ROOTING for?
:ohmy: :drama:
Here's the runners and riders:
Real Salt Lake
Last year's surprise winners, beating LA Galaxy in front of 46,000 in Seattle. Interest is running high in Utah, seeing as their bsketball team (the Jazz) is permanently...

When is Falmer supposed to officially open?
There are hard hat days scheduled in May 2011 according to this article, but does that mean it will definitely be open for the opening match of 2011/12?
BBC Sport - Football - Charlton 1-2 Brighton
Some top highlights:
Two top goals, make your mind up over the goal that wasn't given, marvel at Thierry Racon's decision not to put his foot through the ball just before we scored, and an excellent example of a GOALDOWN RETRIEVER. :bowdown:
I liked him last night.
Quietly went about his business, breaking up Charlton moves and playing the simple ball out of the complete bog that was the middle of the pitch. I think I can see what Poyet wants from him.
