    Eddie got a reaction from Alph in No replays in the FA Cup from the First Round.   
    It is an utter disgrace, but not unexpected given the cosy relationship between the FA and the Premier League.
    If they can do this, then there is nothing to stop them severing the relationship between the FA and the EFL - and the next logical step being the establishment of a 'closed shop' Premier League with no promotion and relegation.

    How absolutely lovely.
    I was fortunate enough to be named 'Supporter of the Year' back in 1978 when David Langan won 'Player of the Year'. It's still a great memory.

    I can't help with tickets, but I hope that: a) your Dad's progress continues; b) you manage to get him a ticket for the final day; but most importantly that he continues to progress his recovery.  You don't need to tell him a Pompey fan sends him best wishes, but I'm pretty sure if others from the 92 saw this note they'd all be saying the same thing.  Love to you and yours.

    If there's anyone else out there that can help myself and a friend who wouldn't mind swapping seats for 2 tickets for the Carlisle game, we can meet at the Clough/Taylor statue...If you can here's my 2 seats.

    Sometimes, groups of fans who have both been to hell and back develop a mutual respect and understanding - like we have with Blackpool.

    I enjoyed so much Irish telly when I was over there a few years back, but I've still never seen anything quite as wonderful as "Podge and Rodge - A Scare At Bedtime".

    Whatever we have sold, apparently we have 11000 on the waiting list willing to pay over £800 for one.

    This programme was a hot tip on this thread a few months back. If you're enjoying that, you might also enjoy an earlier RTE series on the same theme "Love/Hate" which is being shown on ITVX. I'm into series 3 now, and it's good, perhaps a bit grittier than Kin, but I've not yet got it ranked in my top 5, though it might go higher.

    Eddie reacted to Alph in The Real Brian Clough   
    It's a shame he wasn't given more time. He inherited a mess and in my opinion should have been given more time. 
    I've seen the movie about Brian Clough. I'm downloading the Paul Jewell one.

    The obvious solution to fixture pile up is every club who qualifies for Europe enters an u23 or U21 team in the League Cup.

    Happy for it to be "Coming up with you, Pompy".
    As Captain Jean-Luc Picard would say, "Make it so".

    Last week, I drove to Ilson and went in with my sister, who has a parking ticket at PP. That was great, because we got a lift directly to our turnstile at the ground on a golf cart. That's something that might work long term - doing it again for the Carlisle match.

    I'd love to see what he could do in League 1 next season - say with 'Nigel Clough's Mansfield' (tm).

    4 points needed now.
    Barring a significant turnaround in goal difference, just 3.

    4 episodes into the new season of Blue Lights.
    A tad disappointed tbh. It feels more soapy and less edgy than the first series, with too many subplots involving love interests.
    I was just thinking, "I wonder which of the female cops they will kill off?" when Mrs. Badger asked me the same question.
    Not a spolier as we don't know that, it just feels that way.
    Not bad but it's gone from an 8.5 to a 6.5 for me up to now.
