The good thing with all this unwanted speculation is that it means we are doing well. So I'll take it as part of the package for having had another good season.

Good choice.

Buttler just got out for 39. Missed out on 6 successive half centuries.

Interestingly, 7 clubs chose their goalkeeper as their best player with a few other clubs choosing defenders. We had so many candidates I thought - could easily have gone for Lowton, Tarky, Mee, JBG, Cork or Barnes - but I kept recalling how concerned I was when Tom Heaton got that injury and just ...

The Arsenal guy also wants to bring in VAR. That's 2 points less for them at the Turf next season, then. Overall, they appear to have got themselves a decent bunch of "correspondents", Arsenal and Chelsea aside. A good read, and I can't believe I'm saying that of a daily mail article. Some of them,...

Meanwhile, keeper coach Gerry Peyton is one of the casualties of Wenger leaving Arsenal and is expected to depart along with several other backroom staff.

I saw him score a cracker at Wisbech and said on here that I liked the look of him. I’ve no idea if he’ll make it but he’s definitely got something. He's had a good season in the u23s, and remember he has been a 2nd year scholar who usually you would have expected to be playing in the youth team. H...

Was it Duff or someone from that era who said that during Coyle's time with us the players would be having cans of fizzy drinks during/after training etc. Duffo did a Q&A during his testimonial season and described us as the most unprofessional team ever to win promotion.

They weren't interested in Dyche last time and again they want Silva but he's in dispute with Watford who apparently haven't paid him a penny yet. They blamed Everton's interest in them having to sack him.

I'd like to think Southampton would stick with Hughes. His remit was to avoid the drop and he succeeded. Bringing in another foreign flair manager is totally the wrong thing to do given how they only narrowly stayed up. I'd also hope that West Brom give Moore a chance. He's shown more than enough t...

If that's what the goalkeeper has been doing then well done to the ref. They get away with murder with pens.

If only there was a building for sale near the ground which the club could buy to make it more suitable.

Didn't see the game. Fulham have played some excellent football this season but they seemed to have gone off the boil at just the wrong time. Did they play well last night or was it more a case of Derby doing what Derby do?

Didn’t work out here and I found his departure really weirdly handled at the time but you can’t argue with his transfer record (he left us with Austin, Vokes, Ings, Trippier, Mee, Shackell etc). I'm told he had nothing to do with the Trippier and Mee signings, certainly when they came in on loan. H...

Because the transfer window, under Fifa rules, has to be open for a minimum of 12 weeks, the Premier League has had to bring it forward because of it closing sooner.

I think I'd be a better manager than Durham is a presenter. This is the idiot who was demanding that Matic's red card against us should be transferred to Ashley Barnes and Chelsea be awarded three points despite not beating us.
