        Well done Rob.

        Burnley did me no favours either as I had Bednarek in my fantasy football team defence.

        The points had seemed in the bag.

        York turned it around very late in the day and won 3-2 at Alfreton Town.

        Up to 16th position and seven points above the drop zone.

        But it really shouldn't be like this.

          MotD is a must watch... to see the Goodison little Black Cat...

            And a Spygate update.

            First Leeds - now Valencia.

            All hail the teddy bat.

            Just weeks after 'spygate' rocked England's Championship, a similar incident has stunned Spanish football. Sort of.


            (I like this team!)

                67 games and 93 minutes without a penalty.......one of those “ it could only happen to us” moments that all teams have !

                Decent point I suppose, massive game against Cardiff next up.

                Well done Stockport. Edgy will no doubt tell us how many rounds to Wemberlee.

                      You’d have been taking on the ‘Owls never do it the easy way’ mantra and waiting until the brink of injury time.

                        A double on the cards then!

                        A win today for Truro also beating Eastbourne 2-0.

                          Went to Southend v Bristol Rovers with a West Ham supporter.

                          Home team were awful and lost 1-2, Rovers having spurned some good chances.

                          We felt the overall standard was way below Premiership before reflecting that lower teams than these had knocked us both out the FA CUP!

                            Or good for The Toon but a draw for Seagulls.

                              Saints had four penalties awarded against them at Ibrox yesterday. Rangers scored three of them. Makes me think of the old days when Rangers always had a twelfth man on the field, the man in black (not Johnny, though cash was always reputed to have changed hands)...all dodgy handshakes back then as far as we were concerned. Four penalties...anyone ever remember their team having four penalties awarded against them in one game?

                              By the way, on the subject of penalties, Burnley were denied a stonewaller in the first half, but I thought the Burnley guy should have been off the field for the verbal attack on the linesman. Two poor decisions by the ref, I thought.

                                It does seem as though overpunishment has fitted the Saints’ crimes, jc!
