What did I say about City taking it out on us after the Wigan match. 
Worse, we have to play 'em again on Thursday.

Thanks @ozboz. Was listening on the radio - by all intents it was a pretty dire game.
I'd have rather had the silverware than 3 points. Chasing for 4th is a bit pie-in-the-sky tbh.

Another good home win for Rangers this weekend at home to Hearts. I reckon they have been steadily improving under Murty for some time now, although to me, that was the worst I'd seen them play. I was at the last home defeat to Hibs, and left trying to figure out why we managed to lose despite creating so many chances. We still created a lot yesterday but the finishing and decision making was woeful. Thankfully, Hearts were as meek as dish water and apart from 1 gilt edged chance early in the first half, offered very little by way of resistance. May be a bit harsh, but certainly how I saw it.

Yeah, always a bit strong that claim but you can't blame them trying to whip up a bit of interest. If by some miracle, the Donsvhad pulled off a shock, it may have been a different story.
If so then I'll buy you a pint.There's a good chance that Stanley and Bradford will be resuming hostilities next season Mark.

It was 25 years on Sunday last since the great Bobby Moore died. I was watching this

last night and got a feeling that the date of his death was around now. Nothing else to say apart from he was a superb footballer and the memory of him and Pele swapping shirts at the end of their 1970 World Cup match to me is one of the most iconic footballing moments!

Wibble! (If you know your "Blackadder", that's the sound of a broken Birmingham City fan, slumped in a dark corner contemplating how to get out of having to witness how the rest of this season pans out. (A warm welcome to St Andrews for Accrington Stanley next season, by the way).
On a brighter note, has anyone else seen that fantastic "Ripping Yarns" episode called "Golden Gordon" being repeated quite a lot on the Yesterday channel at the moment? It was always one of my all time favourite Pythonesque episodes, following a week in the life of a long-suffering Barnstoneworth United fan. Michael Palin at his comic best. ("Eight one! ..... Eight bloody one!" and all that). My favourite line was the announcement that "Saturday's game looks like being the last match to be played at the Sewage Works Ground". Highly recommended viewing for all diehard football fans.

Accy Stanley's match at Newport tomorrow has been postponed,as expected. http://accringtonstanley.co.uk/2018/03/newport-match-postponed/ I think most lower league games will be off,including some Championship and maybe Premier League games. Although the top 2 divisions will have undersoil heating,the areas outside the grounds could be snowbound and "pose a risk to public safety".

Mixed fortunes for teams in stripes against teams in red today. Killie came from behind to force a cup replay at Pittodrie, with Kris Boyd scoring again. Surely McLeish must be thinking of giving him a run out in the upcoming Scotland friendlies?
Newcastle meanwhile could do with a striker themselves. Absolutely toothless against Liverpool this evening. It was highly entertaining seeing Klopp dancing about like an angry crab when Salah was fouled in the final minute, pretty much all the Geordie faithful had to get excited about.

Boydy's on fire, always liked him.

Aye, he's a favourite of mine. Great to see him being prolific again, been like a new player since Clarke came along. Always felt he was a bit too pally with Jig who guaranteed him a start despite being visibly unfit.
