Big game next week. Can we increase the gap? We're told we need to beat the teams around us, but I didn't expect the teams around us to be Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs. What a season!

Re: February TV Fixtures - no show again
I emailed Sky about this. I asked them when the dates would be released. Their reply was " your guess is as good as mine" Was hoping to book the train for Swansea. Daren't risk it in case we play Sunday afternoon. The trouble is it gets more expensive the longer you wait.

Nelson v Clitheroe was the only game to finish on Sunday. Hurricane Irma wouldn't have stopped Clitheroe playing. Much of the game played in the rain.

I enjoyed the show. I actually saw the original one 50 years ago. I understand the concerns about James Morrison etc. However, I believe the beeb tried their best to recreate the original show. Unfortunately, Wilson Pickett and Otis Redding weren't available. Great music, a big part of my growing up.
