England Scotland Wales Ireland (London) / An Indian man A Pakistani Muslim man A Zambian born black man A half Indian gay man (A Pakistani Muslim 'man') What a remarkable coincidence. A true triumph of meritocracy - even if it would have been about 10 million to 1. You have to hand it to the...

First bit of departure news trickling in from Alan Nixon (who else) - McBurnie and Jebbison both want fresh starts and are expected to leave when their contracts expire. I think Jebbison is one of the youth players. Possibly? Who cares. McBurnie will be a serious loss but for all we know...

At the current HSBC sports club in Dore. Very significant development. Finally something proper to show for not only this season in the PL, but the previous two as well. An actual permanent improvement to the club. Which should have always been the aim. This site is in an absolutely perfect...

It's off to the 'diverse', futuristic British town of Lutonistan today in one of the last chances for us to register an away win in this memorable season. I'll actually be holding my nose and attending today - my first ever trip to this absolute hovel. It should at least be something different...

Ralph Hasenhuttl Nathan Jones Mark Robins Alexander Blessin Sam Allardyce Michael Beale Carlos Corberan Philippe Clement Chris Wilder There's a few. There'll be more. FFS, hurry up and pick one, because if we stick with Heckman we are seriously going to threaten Derby's famous record. The...

Don't know what we have to spend, don't know what's going on with the ownership. Do know that we're in a position that was unimaginable no time ago and that it would be criminal to throw away promotion from here. So surely we'll be able to take advantage and find a way to strengthen. Limiting...

It's the tournament no one wanted, at a time no one wanted to play it. It has disfigured the entire domestic season and given approval to a country guilty of the human rights abuses we claim to care so much about, at a time football is more preachy and political than ever. But on the plus side...

It looks like Watford have arrived. 4-0 winners at Stoke in Bilic's first game. Completely alien to anything else they've produced this season. I think we can assume they'll be serious top 2 contenders now. It's going to be an interesting and closely fought battle for the top 2 places. We...

Arguably goals can be important in football. Do we have enough in this squad? I think we probably do. A goal difference of around +35 should usually get you a top 2 place. For that I'd say we need to aim for around 75 goals. So maybe around 65 from the current lot. Let's see... Ndiaye - 15...

Berge and Ndiaye have done it, and Khadra is the icing on the cake. Was always optimistic we'd be OK with a signing like Khadra, and with Ndiaye contributing. But with the bonus of keeping Berge (surely) and Ndiaye's phenomenal development, I don't think there can be any doubt whatsoever that...

Liverpool denied any interest..... Now the odd report is popping up that they may be moving for him after all. Also some rumours that he isn't going to be in the squad tomorrow. I still expect him to stay. There has to be a lack of suitors at the money we want and I don't see why Liverpool...

35 minutes...... Brentford 4-0 Man Utd :ROFLMAO: Ten Haag was a coup for whoever got him....... but did Man U really think he'd succeed where all those others have failed? Dean Henderson must be laughing seeing De Gea chuck another one in. Good to see Josh Dasilva back. I've followed him for...

It's the League Cup, so we're allowed to play some of our interesting players. How about.... Wes Ahmedhodzic Egan Clark Khadra Coulibaly Arblaster Lowe McAtee Osborn Jebbison Always a good additional friendly this game. Useful match time for a number of the above. I'd stick with the same...

1. LWB - we have no good option there. 2. CF - can we really back any of them and go without a further signing? 3. Heckman - he's steady to decent, I'd say. But is that good enough for promotion? Will he maximise our attacking talent? 4. Central midfield - could do with a defensive midfielder...

Lost 3-2 at Scunthorpe today. 3-0 down at half time. Brewster and Ndiaye scored in the second half to pull it back. Brewster keeps scoring. He may be the biggest positive of pre season so far. Back from injury and immediately back among the goals. I expect at least 38 goals this season from...

I thought it was shit or bust last season, but maybe it's not the case. Signing Ahmedhodzic is a surprising and significant statement. Gibbs-White turned us into a top 6 side from a mid table side so it's natural to think mid table is what we'll be now he's gone. But some very good players...

It is the biggest day of the domestic season. The day of the Champions League final. We will witness the titans of Liverpool take on the giants of Real Madrid, to once and for all decide who is better at the football. On the paper, the Liverpools are a stronger team. But the Madrid whites have...

Kevin Ellison - This lad's been knocking in the goals in League Two for about 30 years - he's surely overdue his chance at a higher level? We could give him that chance. Uche Ikpeazu - You have to allow yourself to dream, don't you? Alex Revell - Now could be the time to get Wilder's original...
