I wouldn't want us buying messy, I much prefer tidy signings. Sorry, that was terrible.

In all seriousness, I think we'll have lots of panicky fans on Twitter and Facebook before 11pm comes and there's no business.

Stringer's Twitter account says Nugent is unlikely to leave us. This may mean we need a replacement, Paddy Madden?

We're going to hell in a handcart.

That makes a bit more sense.

It's a great little pub as well. They used to do a spicy chutney relish with their burgers, utterly lovely. They do a mean Everards Tiger and Steak pie as well.

He needed time to settle here, Conference to Championship was always going to be one hell of an ask.

I'd be surprised with King and Drinkwater in mdifield.....

Not quite so concerned now. :D

Bit concerned about the lack of midfield creativity in the starting line-up.

For the love of God, I hope the latter is correct.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhDDa183URE I just think of Allo Allo when I hear the word Klopp. Outstanding manager though.

Schlupp at left-back and Dyer on the wing seems likely then. Plenty of pace for Forest to think about.

The New Territories were ceded to Britain as part of a 99 year lease but Hong Kong was supposed to have been granted to the UK permanently after the First Opium War. Eventually Britain and China agreed that all of the lands surrounding the New Territories would return to China in 1997, in...

Bought the jelly and ice cream. Any chance of George Galloway snuffing it before too long so I don't have to go out again?

Not so sure. O'Neill's bright enough to know that any manager could be out of work for months after being sacked. RDM won the Champions League last year and has been out of work since November.

OK, I left myself open to that one. :icon_bigg

And there was me writing my 'Nazi Dominatrix In' post.

Totally agree with the sentiment that we've dodged a bullet. I don't want him anywhere near this club; aside from being a fascist, the bloke is a walking circus.

I could see O'Neill potentially doing what Nigel Worthington did when Rob Kelly got the push, coincidentally at more or less the same stage of the season. His stock has been damaged by his time at Sunderland and if he could turn around City's form, even just to get a decent enough performance...

Far more positives than negatives to take from that. The last minute equaliser was a choker precisely because it was so undeserved. We went to the side with the best home record in the division and utterly outplayed them throughout, restricting them to one shot from which they scored. That's...

Thanks. Not sure where 'reigned' came into my sentence. A good egg, in spite of the Ahmadinejad alliance then. Watch it all go to mierda now as America inevitably wades its oar in for the oil.....

Was Chavez still as revered towards the end or had his popularity reigned? My knowledge of Latin American politics went a bit awry around the 2008 mark......

Thatcher will live to 100. Just to spite us all.

119,723 points on my first try.

Realistically you are of course right, but what better way to revitalise a fantastic competition that has become sadly devalued over the years? It used to be an incredibly prestigious trophy and the fans love it. I've always dreamed of belting out Abide With Me in an FA Cup Final with City...

I would personally rather see the FA Cup winners in the Champions League over a side that finishes fourth in the league.

I thought you were fairly critical of those who opposed the change Dave? Or did I imagine that?

I find it bizarre that Blackpool are allowed to continue admitting fans to a stand that has been proven to be unsafe. With the best will in the world; asking football fans to behave, particularly away fans, is spitting into the wind. Away fans will stand, they will jump up and down and they...

It isn't a bad draw actually. It's a test, but a winnable test, that will give a good indication of how far away we are from being able to survive in the Premiership should we earn promotion. Wigan are better away from home than they are at the DW and play some decent football under Martinez...

Definitely, I can see a Championship club going to Wembley this season. It'd be great if it were us; FA Cup winners and automatic promotion in the same season isn't too much to ask for surely?

Very true, I've always found it very dull in Derby.

3 points then. Oh, and more pre-match drinking time for those going. It could be worse.

So many to choose from. Claridge's last minute winner against Palace at Wembley. Walshie's equaliser against Arsenal in THAT game at Filbert Street. Going ahead against Atletico through Marshall and outplaying them for long periods. Howard's bullet header against Leeds to all but promote us...

I'd love to be back in Europe. Promotion and European qualification in the same season isn't too much to ask for is it? If Pearson can't bring us that, he needs to go.

Apparently they've been in talks with a Bollywood actor as his replacement. No, really.

Very true, keep on top of Austin and you nullify them in my opinion. We will need a lot of bite up front as well though, let's hope our shot shy strikers can turn their form around.

We aren't even in 2013 and people are already talking of us as though we're on the verge of blowing our play-off place? Ye Gods.

We outplayed them back in September, though it's difficult to argue we've progressed much since that win. I'd take a draw.

Rumours abound on Twitter they're on their way from Millwall. Wood's transfer is apparently the closer to completion.
