So having waited until the close of the window - it now looks like a serious disappointment. Lost our best player, and lost the one forward who gave us ab extra dimension with his pace, and replaced neither. Really disappointing. Give it a rest. Keane leaving was known, Twark was always his replace...

"I hope we're back in the frame"? Ings has been and gone. We've just as good if not better at the club. Move on.

To be fair I was in Townley yesterday and I thought the atmosphere was quite buoyant. Seemed loud enough.

My wife did comment though that we only sing 3 songs.

Unfortunately for the parents a new nightmare is about to begin. They received well over £1 million in donations which they're going to use to start a charitable foundation.

It's one hell of a trimming exercise considering they were in the Premier League for 1 season. If we went down I doubt we'd have had to trim any of the current players. Possibly quite the opposite.

Fantastic stadium. It has that special feeling even when you go round when it is empty.

I've often wondered why a journalist needs to investigate criminal activities. I'm sure that is what the police go through years of criminology training to do

bf2k

That's very true in that case. The problem is that under may the police have been cut to such an extent that community policing has all but died a death. Cops don't know their community like they used to. People won't talk to a response cop that flies in, deals with the current issue and flies out ...

It's your chance to effect things and , for example, make a statement on which political model (party policy) you believe the country should employ.

To not vote is a little strange but I agree with the OP again it is our democratic right to vote or abstain from voting.

Will this mean that MP who abstain in parliament will be fined?

No because I passionately dislike Blackburn (actually I passionately dislike anything related to Blackburn). Like I said I don't have any grudges against Leicester.

I said I was pleased for Leicester not you should all be please for them. But they are an English team representing our country in the Champions League. Add to that it is their first time in the competition and how they got into it. I don't have any grudges against them.

A few bitter people on here tonight.

Pleased for Leicester. They've deserved it.

As for the sending off it was the correct decision. Nasri had already been booked. Both players rightly booked. Nasri had to go.

Is it used in the FA Cup? MOTD showed the goal was given on the goal line technology and I've heard/read reference to the ref getting notification that it was a goal from the technology. We have it installed because we have to have it in the Premier League but what would have happened if this game w...

I think Defoe would be fantastic for us. He guarantee we scored enough goals to stay up, ensure a relegation spot was taken by Sunderland and what a mentor for Gray who is a very similar player.
