We play tippy tappy football where possession is paramount . I'm glad to see this nonsense we have to suffer in the prem and championship where goal kicks have been replaced by two defenders in the six yard box waiting to walk the ball out of the box is largely missing so far in this...

Unbelievable match. It has everything . 3-1 doesn't do Georgia justice but they gave everything right at the end. Best match so far and will take some beating. Played the way footy should be played.

What a fantastic match this is. Both teams going all out to score. You don't need to pass the ball across the pitch backwards and sideways and set a new world record of 99 consecutive passes . This is the way it should be played.

In the heat of the summer of 1976 and the drought of 77 I walked across to the island in the middle of Quinton pool in cheylesmore, when it almost completely dried up. Often think about that when I drive through that area.

I went to Sunny beach in 1989. A cheap hellhole back then. We stayed in a high rise tower block that was actually on the beach. One of only two hotels as I remember. Nowhere to eat beyond what the hotels offered. Local people queuing for bread and milk at the only shop for miles each morning...

I remember Sunday in the 1970s when everything was shut after midday We just played out in the street or up the park . There was nothing else to do and TV was absolutely boring as hell. I remember playing on building sites and building bikes out of old bits of other bikes. 70s music was great...

I like what I've seen so far in this tournament. Positive football not plagued by tippy tappy nonsense that infects the premier league and increasingly, England.

It never ceases to amaze me how big named managers get a 2nd, 3rd and 4th chance when clearly they are absolutely rubbish at management but were famous as a player.

He should go to Leeds . Massive club with a big hardcore who will love O'Hare's bloody irritating personality.

Are " Ultras" people who consider themselves fanatical fans or are they just fearsome knob heads who have that label on their jackets ?

Scrots ?

I've been studying the dots and by my reckoning we've sold nearly 37, 000 season tickets which is more than Aston Villa. Super effort.

I never said anything about everyone , but there are those who want to be near the away fans just for that. I do understand it since I started going in the 1970s when home and away fans were segregated in the west end. If being near the away fans is part of the enjoyment then each to their own...

Why oh why is it important to be near away fans ? Anyone who spends more time looking at away fans and making the wanker sign than watching the game is , ironically, a wanker .

And much more. The Championship is a far more exciting league and far more competitive. The premier league is utterly corrupt. The day we get there is the day the fun stops.

Spot on. It's boring as hell, but the name of the game is keep possession at all costs. It's the modern way of playing. We have no Shearer or Gascoigne , no players of flair who want to leg it down the wing and bang in cross, though Trent AA does it at Liverpool . The players are clearly told...

Even though Man U aren't the force they were under Sir Alex they're still a top 6 premier league side and I remember watching Torp in the semi final thinking he'd comfortably sit in their team.

Torp is destined for the premier league. ......... with Coventry City
