    A bit of a flat game but we're doing OK. O'Hare in the wars again.

    Didn't see much but there was a one-liner I liked - but possibly this is from the trailer I saw this morning, not last night's show: Girl and Guy lying in bed: Guy: Are you seeing anyone? Girl: Yes, he's a doctor. Guy: Is it serious? Girl nods. Guy: OMG, do I need to get tested?

    Bayliss - PNE perspective

    We haven't seen him play for two years - he's probably rusty, having been given no chances at PNE, however his body strength should be much greater now and he *should* have improved. Don't think that anyone could say yea or nay based on no information other than what he looked like in League 2...

    Came across the end of this last night when flicking through. Seemed pretty decent - anyone seen a full episode? It's a new Channel 4 comedy series.

    And it's so bloody cocky whilst it's doing it too - like it's absolutely certain you meant "how far negligent we are" rather than "how far behind we are" . I think Autocorrect is arrogant and would be a bore at parties, telling you how great it is.

    Comfortable mid-table should be the goal next season. We're not going to be troubling the top slots for a while (ever?) whilst Premiership relegated clubs get £100m over three years as parachute payments. It's a system designed to stop massive player turnover for relegated clubs and rapid...

    Kinda failed at Scunny but has been scoring since Ebbsfleet aged 22.

    It's funny how some players suddenly come good. If you look at his record he'd done nothing until he was released by Southend and joined Plymouth in 2018 - he was 25 then. To put that in context, he was the same age as Baka is now when suddenly he came good. I'm sure Baka will be released...

    I disagree. I think it's running fast; dodging people and kicking the ball into the goal.

    Well, you say that. But in the meantime you've sullied my good name to my fans (@PVA; @skybluetony176 ) without proof. However, I accept your apology and agree it was a great win.

    His contribution to tika-taka is as Xavi's is to plumbing.

    I'd not let him go for less than £50m.

    I don't remember writing that. If I did, I retract.

    I've come to the conclusion that he's a left back, not a left wing back. He tackles well and wins the ball in the air but his distribution is God-awful.

    Well played City... and well done Wilson. I'm so pleased that Robings realised how important this game was and eventually brought on Max to ensure victory. Just two points now to ensure another season in this league.
