    nibbles looks at me like that.

    Sky Sports Plus

    I suspect that many Sky+ customers will also be ripped off or decide not to go for it as it's likely that it will be tacked on to a Sports Package of some description. I have no interest in any sport except F1 and negotiated getting that just that sport channel as part of my agreement to sign a...

    Mark Bonner

    His fitness was a welcome bonus. He was on the pitch for every minute of every league game last season and actually played 47 league games (27 for Swindon and 20 for us).

    Harris

    At least he admits that his time at Gillingham was "shambolic".

    Exactly this. SC inherited a problem, did his best, but didn't find a solution. Hopefully Bonner will do what Harris and Clemence couldn't.

    The difference two seasons can make.

    With apologies if it's been mentioned elsewhere on here already but it dawned on me yesterday. Last season, Ipswich vs Forest Green Rovers was a League 1 fixture. Next season - Ipswich will be playing league games vs teams like Man City and Liverpool. FGR's biggest game will be vs Solihull...

    New signings

    So - who? Brad PDPS Joe KJ Hess IMO, there wouldn't be a "clear indication".

    The Official Doncaster Rovers Match Thread (Sponsored by Dunelm Mill "for all your final curtain needs")

    I can only think they used the argument that DJ wasn't going to get to the ball and that there were three defenders covering. I don't see that as relevant as I remain convinced that the back-header was goalbound. A the end of the day it doesn't matter. We got our compensation through them...

    Retained Lists L1 & L2

    Josh Andrews is from the same mould as Matt Smith. I just hope he goes on to become as good a goalscorer and goes down as the next Gills goalscoring legend.

    12 Months

    The saddest thing is that, not only do they believe themselves, but dozens of other twats will read it and believe it too.

    Clemence gone?

    BGs backing for Clemence next season wasn't two weeks ago. It was before the poor 0-0 at home to Crewe, the 5-1 debacle at Harrogate and the 1-0 defeat at Bradford. At that time, like me, I suspect Brad thought we still had a chance of the play-offs and that if we missed out it would only be by...

    Clemence gone?

    I've just dug out my notes from the Fans Forum on 7th February. When asked about promotion prospects: KJ responded that he hadn't given up hope of going up automatically. BG said he'd fancy going up through the play-offs after experiencing the Wembley final last year. SC said he'd take...

    Clemence gone?

    Given that the "vote of confidence" was immediately rewarded with a lack-lustre 0-0 home draw, a 5-1 thrashing and a 1-0 defeat I'm not surprised it was rescinded.

    Clemence gone?

    A massive shock but at least the timing is good. Just as long as they don't take too long finding a replacement. The new man must be in place before the players come back from their summer break - especially if he's going to be allowed any say in potential new signings..

    Points prediction for top 7? Ever the optimist

    And so it turned out. Realising that, if we'd won at Mansfield and beaten Doncaster, we'd still have missed out on the play-offs was a bonus.
