    Chelsea v Man City FA Cup

    Man City giving 5 debutants a game. Love Richard Osman's tweet on the matter. 'Not saying that Man City aren't taking the FA Cup seriously, but those 11 shirt numbers add up to nearly 450!' :)

    Things you like and dislike about your missus

    Dislike: Too serious. No sense of humour. Never gets the joke of anything in any TV programme. Won't get into the spirit of Christmas, or Easter, or Halloween, or Bonfire Night etc. Never wants to go anywhere but Russia for holidays Always criticises the UK and how things are here (Russians...

    The EU referendum

    Only heard snippets, but I like the look of it!! Michael Gove says he wants to leave Europe and I would reckon most of the country would want him to leave Europe too. Or is it not quite that simple?

    Cardiff v Brighton

    Just flicking channels and came across this game. Brighton are 3rd and a win for Cardiff leaves them just 2 points outside the top 6. The stadium looks almost completely empty. Am I missing something?

    Key League One fixtures

    Today: Walsall v Wigan Millwall v Peterborough Bradford v Rochdale Sheffield United v Port Vale Monday: Southend v Burton Best scenario? Anything but a Walsall win (preferably a draw) - A Walsall win would leave us 8 points adrift of the automatics and make life just that little bit...

    Stephen Fry 'quits' Twitter

    Now whether you like him or not, this is just ridiculous! Getting a load of abuse after his 'bag lady' quip. http://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/feb/14/stephen-fry-hits-back-at-criticism-of-baftas-bag-lady-joke-she-got-it-derrr

    Play-offs

    Don't want to tempt fate talking about it now, but I think it is wise to look at the scenario in terms of dates etc. I know someone yesterday said they were away on holiday for the play-off final. Season ends on the 8th May and the play-off final is on the 29th May. My concern is when the...

    Deliberate handball

    It needs sorting out. What happened to Man City yesterday could quite easily happen to us and what if it happened in a play-off final should we get there? A decision like that could be so massive. That decision in the Man City game where the ball hit Sterling was a complete joke. Remember...

    Viola Beach

    Anyone know of them, or heard any of their stuff? All four members of the band killed in a car crash in Sweden. Radio 1's Huw Stephens described them as being incredibly promising

    Player ratings - Bury

    RCC 7 - Assured today. One ball where both he and a defender went for this same ball, otherwise thought he had a good game. Ricketts 6 - pretty steady today. Cargill 7 - very solid, calm and assured. Stephens 7 - See above Stokes 7 - back to his best. Vincelot 7 - missed him badly Fleck 7...

    Next weekend

    I know there are a few games on Tuesday, but next weekend when we don't have a game could be interesting. Millwall v Peterborough Walsall v Wigan Southend v Burton Today's win was vital. Draws in all those games would be good for us if we can beat Fleetwood next time out. Or maybe better...

    Burton v Chesterfield tonight

    Have we any interest in this game at all, or have we given up the thought of catching them and therefore we couldn't care less?

    Kevin Keen - Colchester

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35553613 This did make me chuckle. Colchester manager Kevin Keen says the job has "probably" been more of a challenge than he anticipated. The 48-year-old is yet to achieve a League One victory after taking his first managerial role in December. When asked...

    Bury match thread

    Can't see one anywhere. If one turns up, feel free to move this one there. I know this has been said a thousand times and it's getting to be a bit tired and old hat, but this is surely the biggest game of the season! We lose this and we could well be out of the top 6 come Saturday night...

    We have 20 players out of contract in the summer

    How scary is that? If we go up, fine, because we will need Championship quality players anyway, but I don't see how it can be a 2 year plan if we are having to start again pretty much from scratch next season.

    Belief? At what point do you think we lost ours?

    Just listening to 5 Live talking about Leicester and to fans and ex players etc. and so much of their success is being put down to belief. The confidence and belief to think you will win and are invincible. I recall Dalglish saying the same about Blackburn when they won the league. Belief was...

    Cargill and Stephens to both play on Sunday perhaps?

    Just checked and Stephens can play defensive midfield as well as, as a defender. With Vincelot suspended, could TM maybe play him there? Then Cargill can take Ramage's place alongside Ricketts. Just can't see Ricketts being dropped as he is the captain. I thought Lorentzson looked pretty good...

    So what's everyone's plans now the season is over?

    Nice holiday perhaps? Shopping with the Mrs on Saturday afternoons? Who was your player of the season? Are you happy that we finished 5th? How angry are you that the season inexplicably finished on the 2nd of February and are you going to write to the Football League to complain about it? Have...
