    Oxford and Luton. Watford too, apparently, but I didn't see that one. That's about it, though.

    Whatever his faults, you can tell Lampard is desperate to succeed; his stock is low and there are people desperate for him to fail. So there's a lot of pressure on him, and ultimately this is a make or break appointment. Goes wrong, and he's a life of punditry ahead of him. It may not be his...

    We are playing a goalkeeper now, which helps matters.

    It's a pretty common name in parts of East Asia, but it's pronounced 'eng'. Anyway, that was fucking bilge. This team can fuck off.

    My favourite goal (aside from the obvious one) from the greatest World Cup there's been. I loved this USSR team.

    Robins to Stoke ?

    We didn't. We were in a fight, but a fight it would have been unreasonable not to expect. That Rotherham game was key, and if we'd have lost, it may have been different, but we didn't and stayed up very comfortably in the end. Stayed up comfortably in a season when staying up by the skin of...
