Imps 2-2 Blue Devils (HT 1-0) - Afolayan - 8,836

Thank you. That's that settled, then.

Why? It could also see us at the other end battling to go up. Who knows? Simple answer - none of us. Let's wait and see what transpires between now and then. Or, at least until next season starts and we can see what sort of squad we have.

The best performance in the Premier League was the 11 points scored by @singe, which just lifts him out of the relegation zone, but drops @astottie in. @rosa stays there as well. At the top end, who is going to stop @Ex_pat? And is @jorvik_latic making a late bid? Shout out to @SAV who only missed out on maximum attendance points by +4. In the Championship, 9 points scored by @aidan_latics was the best, but it didn't move him anywhere. @Stevie_J moves out of the danger zone. Just. That puts @Runningman in potential trouble. While @Benja holds on to 1st place, @yarddog73 goes back into the automatic promotion places at @youngen's expense. The 6 points scored by @south east latic and @Dave_Og were the best, keeping the former on top, and the latter just nudging @maddog out of the second automatic promotion slot. @Macca looks as though he could be making a charge for the play-offs, whilst the bottom eight don't move at all. Premier League . Championship League 1 With only 10 games to go, it's probably worthwhile posting this again in case of any late flurries by those that seem to have fallen by the wayside.

Funny, isn't it? That one winds me up too, and I know it shouldn't. The incorrect use of there and their gets up my nose a bit too, but you just have to ignore it and move on. However, I like this that @Diego_Sideburns has posted once or twice (apologies for nicking it) I have a spelling checker, It came with my PC. It plane lee marks four my revue Miss steaks aye can knot sea. Eye ran this poem threw it, Your sure reel glad two no. Its vary polished in it's weigh. My checker tolled me sew. A checker is a bless sing, It freeze yew lodes of thyme. It helps me right awl stiles two reed, And aides me when eye rime. Each frays come posed up on my screen Eye trussed too bee a joule. The checker pours o'er every word To cheque sum spelling rule. Bee fore a veiling checker's Hour spelling mite decline, And if we're lacks oar have a laps, We wood bee maid too wine. Butt now bee cause my spelling Is checked with such grate flare, Their are know fault's with in my cite, Of nun eye am a wear. Now spelling does knot phase me, It does knot bring a tier. My pay purrs awl due glad den With wrapped word's fare as hear. To rite with care is quite a feet Of witch won should bee proud, And wee mussed dew the best wee can, Sew flaw's are knot aloud.

So when and where does FACT get an airing?

Oh, trust me, it was. Applying for re-election to the old 3rd North/4th Division, staying in the Football League by the skin of our teeth. And not just once, either. The old Broadway stand condemned, the terraces crumbling under your feet. Yes, what we're dealing with today is nowhere near as bad as it was then. Having said that, not once in the nigh on 69 years that I've supported my home town team has it ever crossed my mind to stop supporting them. My only regret is that for the last 30 years, mostly due to work and relocations, I haven't been able to get to as many games as I would like. I still miss being at Boundary Park every fortnight. Maybe I'm just a bit mad.

Christ, my first game was in 1950. If you think it's bad now, you should have been watching us 60 years ago. Now that was crap with a capital C.

I also wonder who signed Iacovitti. I didn't know we had Lacovitti as well. Sorry, couldn't resist.

Can we please bring back downvotes just for using the term "bang average"?

Cameron Dummigan came on as a sub and scored the 4th goal in Dundalk's 4-0 win on Friday night.

Stop it. Please, just stop it.

O'Grady held back in the box. Nowt given. Ref bokkled it.

O'Grady on for Afolayan. I doubt we can score a winner now.

Sounds like it. Big miss for Tuesday if so.

Missilou on for Baxter. Injury? That's a blow.

Bollocks 1-1

Cambridge fans sound a bit pissed off with the ref. Actually, very pissed off. Makes a change.

With Swindon equalising at Carlisle, we're 5 points off the play offs. Crazy, this League.

Fine for me on Chrome

Cambridge 1-3 Latics (HT 1-1) - Afolayan - 4,778

Which brother is ruling the roost here? I've heard of tactics, but this is a totally different approach. Edit: Oh, I get it. Lawman was top scorer in the Championship last week, so ...

To me, that's a 4-3-3 that becomes a 4-5-1. It's a pretty attacking starting X1, but not so much on the bench; two left backs, two defensive midfielders, a winger and a striker. You go with what you've got, obviously, but it looks like Benteke and Vera aren't fancied.

I was close. But not that close.

That was the replay that also ended in a draw and a second replay was played at Nottingham Forest's City Ground. I was at that one. It was the first ever competitive Sunday game between two teams from the top four divisions. It was during Ted Heath's 3 day week malarkey when street lights went off early and clubs weren't allowed to use their floodlights. On reflection, was the game at Cambridge the Sunday one, or was it the one at Forest? Memory fades with age. You'd think I'd remember seeing as I went to the second one.
