Yes never heard it myself, just remember people talking about it afterwards. I've got a book in front of me based on our 'elite' era which gives a brief precis of every game played in the top flight where it diplomatically reads 'Les Sealey's display is unsatisfactory'. As an aside our team...

This is up there with the most ridiculous ideas I've heard for settling the season, completely devaluing the 34 games played already.

I remember the Forest game fairly well. I think it was the game that made us safe from relegation, but put Forest deeper in the mire, so there was a lot riding on it. Forest were awful and created next to nothing, we dominated so it was another celebratory game for us.

He was a decent keeper, but that last game definitely left a bad taste and affected his reception by our fans thereafter. I thought it was the West End, that he let the soft goals in and where he made out that he was deliberately letting goals in (perhaps he did the same in both half's). While...

Wycombe's game in hand is away to us, so given where we were when football stopped, they would probably have been expected to lose, and therefore remain outside the play offs by those teams currently above them. There is no obviously fair way to decide 3rd place or the play off positions without...

Nothing fair about Bolton and Southend not getting relegated. They deserve to go down.

My Dad was from Nottingham and a County fan, and my mum was from Cov. I was born down South while my Dad was was in the Army, and when he left we temporarily moved to Cov, while he sorted a new job out. I was 7 at the time when my Dad took me to my first game at Highfield Road, and other than...

It's what nearly 50 years of disappointment leads to! Sods law that this was the first season in all that time that I was watching games believing the team wasn't going to lose.

You're right about Clough, but Peter Taylor had strong Cov connections, and I'm sure would have happily come here.

Ridiculous idea and impossible to manage. It would result in a lot of underhand practices and exchanges of undeclared payments in order to bypass it by those with deeper pockets. Better to keep things as they are - if clubs don't want to overstretch themselves then they should start by simply...

After a slow start in the league they had built up a real head of steam before the season was halted, and are are potentially one of the biggest losers from this decision, as their momentum and larger support would have given them an advantage in a play off scenario. I guess if there is a null...

Not sure, but we would be better off than others if the season is resumed BCD, presuming that streaming games on ifollow would be open to everyone. As a percentage to average home crowds, our take up would vastly exceed every other team in the League, including Sunderland and Portsmouth.

I don't want to tempt fate - the wind seems to be blowing towards a null and void outcome, so I will look forward to next season once I know the outcome of this season.

Young Stalin? I read it on holiday last year, hence how I knew the answer. I also visited Georgia last year and was fascinating seeing places referred to in the book.

3 is Stalin
