    Tickets for Brackley

    It's a sad reflection of the dwindling status of the FACup that the club is expecting such a poor crowd - even with non-league opponents. Surely the club will consider opening a second stand if advance ticket sales look promising?

    Gills Crocks 11 poser

    Masters has to be first pick. Pulis admitted signing him was one of his biggest mistakes at Gills. I'll add: Charlie Young - centre half signed from Villa for a record breaking 40k in the 70s, broke his leg in his first game!

    Jeds future

    Buddha - JET is supremely talented and should not be in League 1. But he's also supremely lazy and doesn't work for the team. A luxury player, and we're got good enough to carry someone like that.

    Milwall under floodlights!!!

    I read JED's comments as meaning that if it wasn't for all the injuries, one or two players would be dumped permanently. Nelson must be one of them - after that, take your pick!

    What's with all the sheep jokes? It's a FLOCK of sheep and a herd of COWS Pull the udder one...

    New Signings

    Potentially decent signings - but let's just hope they're match fit (not holding my breath...)

    Premiership sides v Gills

    The most memorable thing about that 4-2 Chelsea game was the atmosphere inside Priestfield that day. The place was rocking and the noise was constant. Jesper Gronkjaer said afterwards he'd never experienced anything like it.

    Tonight...

    I wasn't there, so I'm not qualified to comment on the performance. But... I know Spurs are a very good side, but I honestly expected us to put up a better showing than that. We are far too brittle and lightweight (as our league performances have also shown), and I'm not sure where the...

    Anyone seen this yet?

    A good test of a person's decency and integrity is the ability to win with grace and lose with dignity. Farage doesn't even come close .

    Corbyn

    This isn't just about Europe, though. He may have laudable views on the unfairness in our society/need to eradicate poverty etc, but some of Corbyn's positioning on other stuff will never win an election - lack of willingness to distance himself from terrorist groups, getting rid of nuclear...

    Calls for re-referendum reach 3.1M

    Yes, not sure you can trust the numbers on that. Much more significant are the noises from Germany about the UK being allowed to have a rethink. Lot's more to play out on this yet...

    Corbyn

    The Labour Party is the middle of a takeover. Classic Trotskyist infiltration - lots of new party members and in Seamus Milne, a manipulator at the seat of power. Anyone who votes for them in their current form is raving mad - and I say that as someone who has regularly voted Labour in the past...

    Keep bang up to date with the Referendum results

    Durham - you may think this a stupid question, but can you explain why Brexit should affect the building industry so badly? We still need houses after all...

    Keep bang up to date with the Referendum results

    That would confirm the intellectual arrogance of the Eurocrats. However, they are also politicians. They know only too well how Euroscepticism is growing everywhere. They will have to reassess.

    How many more players do you think we need ?

    2 CBs, left back cover (JED will use Morris will cover RB, though I'm not convinced), a speedy wide man (ideally, not completely one-sided), 2 strikers (I expect Donnelly to go on loan quite quickly if he doesn't buck his ideas up).
