    Morpeth Town

    Just won the FA Vase. Beat hot favourites Hereford, 4-1. MOTM Chris Swailes aged 45. Love this sort of Roy of the Rovers stuff.

    Watching the play-offs this weekend

    Has just reinforced the cruelness and luckiness factor involved with it all. Derby today had a very cruel deflection that gifted Hull a goal, Brighton last night lost a number of players to injury and in the end were playing with 10 men because they had, had to use up all their 3 subs.... And...

    What's the best team you can conjure up from ex City players?

    Criteria is that the player has to have played for us, not just been on our books and must be currently active, so still in the game. Ex players only, loan players allowed. Keeper Back four Midfield Attack

    Bands you loved but had sort of forgotten about ...

    and you have now found you love all over again. I'm sure we've all got albums we have loved tucked away somewhere and not played for years. Have you revisited any of these artists recently or long after their album's original releases and then suddenly remembered just how brilliant they truly...

    The pros and cons of Mowbray

    We've heard a plenty of criticisms of TM as the season played out, the tinkering, the 34 Year Club, the selecting certain players over others (ie Fortune), the slide etc., but would be interested to know what positives you see in the man. What is it you like about the bloke as manager? For me...

    Phil Brown says assistant referee should be struck off!

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36246470 Think that's just about as strong as I've heard from a manager about an official. I have seen the incident and it does look soft, but that is way over the top from the manager surely. Going to be a big fine for him for sure.

    Ricketts to hold talks on extending his contract

    http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/coventry-city-skipper-sam-ricketts-11296458 Says he's a great influence behind the scenes, so I hope if he does get a new contract, behind the scenes is exactly where he will stay.

    Tony Mowbray fears throwing Coventry City kids in against 'big and strong' Sheffield

    http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/tony-mowbray-fears-throwing-coventry-11254741 How many big and strong teams are there in League One would you say? Surely a lot more big and strong ones than not isn't there? I do realise we have to show some care, but at what point...

    If we are too challenge next season, who would be the biggest threat..

    Out of the 4 teams in the top 6 now? Bradford Millwall Walsall Barnsley Obviously only one of those can go up, so we are going to be stuck again with the other three. Who would you prefer it to be in terms of them not an adversary to us next season? Obvious one I would say would be...

    New Doctor Who companion

    After the aesthetic beauty of Karen Gillan and Jenna Louise Coleman, I am not so sure the new companion is going to be turning any heads. Well not in the right direction anyway.

    Sacked by Peterborough after today's defeat.

    Burton

    Are we still waiting for them to drop like a stone? Maybe not even make the top 6? Just wondering. 6 points clear of 3rd place. ;)

    Doncaster (A) match thread

    Can't see a thread anywhere. Darren Ferguson, Doncaster manager, has said they have to win all of their remaining 3 games to survive. We obviously have to win the game to stand any chance of being in the play-off place mix, therefore a massive 6 pointer of a game. Won love a win, but think...

    If true, this is brilliant!

    According to Sky Sports, in the Barnsley v Peterborough game, a Peterborough player pushed over a Barnsley player following a tangle. The Peterborough player (Craig Forrester) and the victim were called together by the ref and Forrester was immediately given a yellow card. The Posh player was...

    The 3 teams coming down from the Championship

    Now looking very likely to be the teams sitting in the bottom 3 as it now stands, Bolton, Charlton and MK Dons. Which of those would we consider to be a threat in League One next season? Possibly all of them? I would think Charlton and MK at least. Think with Northampton coming up and possibly...

    That's just 4 goals scored in the last 10 matches

    Good news is, we can still make the play-offs. Win those last 5 games and we have an excellent chance.
