Sad, sad loss. So much a part of what the Beatles achieved.

The chances of making the play-offs now is a very long shot. Not being smug, not being negative, just reflecting on the reality that is staring us in the face. And before anyone states that we are only 3 points behind 6th place, 1 win etc. etc., let me explain why I say what I say. It is all...

Adam Johnson: Sunderland chief executive Margaret Byrne resigns - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35757828 Admission of guilt, or just on principal, or to try and diffuse the situation and prevent any sanctions?

Burnden Park: 'Forgotten' football disaster recalled - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-35697169 Just reading about this terrible tragedy. :( First time I had heard about it. 1946. FA Cup match between Bolton and Stoke. The ground held 65,000, but 85,000 turned up and 33 people...

Anyone watching it? I am really enjoying it. A kind of game show based on an Edinburgh Fringe show. For anyone who hasn't seen it, basically Greg Davies is the Taskmaster and he sets 5 comedians ridiculous tasks to complete. The stars in turn have to offer up something personal as a prize and...

1. It's just a blip 2. paxman says we are going to win 3 in row. 3. There's always next season Any others?

Predictions, formations, attendance etc. Can't see one, Nick. Hope you don't mind. Another defeat I fear. 1-2. Not only the wheels come off, but the car chassis being put up on bricks. 10,200 (official) 9,800 (actual) Armstrong to score our goal, probably a consolation. Very much hope I'm...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2013/murder.html Series starts tonight at 9 pm.

Definitely going to be under 11,000 isn't it! How much under you reckon? Can see loads being put off, especially after the last limp effort against Fleetwood and then getting beaten easily again last night. Can't see Rochdale bringing many. Could it drop under 10,000?

Doctors urge schools to ban tackling in rugby - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-35696238 Doesn't this just go to highlight how dangerous rugby is? American Football is dangerous enough and that's even with the helmets and all the padding. Could rugby eventually head the same way?

Just playing Devil's advocate here and not saying I want to see TM sacked, but just wondering if we brought someone in now would we have a better chance of a top 6 place? We are on a downward spiral and it is now just 3 wins in 15 games. New manager syndrome? Is that a possible option? Just...

..... as the famous saying goes and as per the TV and radio programme of the same name. On another thread I said I had never had a kebab before and it got me thinking. Think we did this before a couple of years back on here, or something similar, but I just thought to distract from the on...

Can't see one anywhere. Nick too busy getting annoyed that ACL are getting called the council on another thread! ;) Anyway, we dare not lose this one. Going to be very, very tough. Last 10 match form table, Barnsley are top. I know some people will say it's a must win, but we need to be...

TM's words after yesterday's defeat. Though I am sure most of us would tend to agree with him, it is also very worrying for the end of the season isn't it? Yesterday's team: RCC Ricketts Cargill Stephens Stokes Fleck Vincelot Murphy Madison Cole Armstrong Now look at that team post...

RCC 7 Ricketts 4 Slow and ponderous. Stephens 5. Started off brilliantly, but second half he went to pot too and played the most ridiculous crossfield pass in the second half that could easily have resulted in a goal. Cargill 5. Quiet game Stokes 6. Looking better going forwards today...

Personally I would like to see Ricketts dropped and Lorentzson brought back in. Really can't see us dropping our captain though. We simply cannot afford to lose this match. Hunt in? Henderson? Think we need a different approach and we need to support Armstrong more. Think it seems odds on...

Just saw the most blatant shirt pulls ever. I really, really would like to see that an instant red card offence. There should be no place in the game for that and I hate the notion of taking one for the team. Liverpool player breaking free into the opposition half and their player grabs the...

Al Ahed goalkeeper Hassan Bittar mistake in AFC Cup defeat - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35649272

Just been talking about their takeover on 5 Live. £175m in debt and even had to sell their car park. Anyway, some 'expert' on there said they did very little wrong. Is that right? He said they kept their high earning players when they went down and that immediately flagged up to me that, that...
