    Sorry forgot the important bit. RIP Bunny - you were a really nice man. If you are running a Pub upstairs keep the side door open for me when I join you.

    Cantwell has been named as club captain at Blackburn Eovers for this season. Glad to see him having a positive effect on their dressing room

    Maybe not, but it looks as if what he's taken on is not dissimilar from the task he faced with us and tackled so successfully, i.e. transforming a club currently ill-equipped for the top tier into one with the operational and infrastructural wherewithal to challenge. Given that the club is now owned by Red Bull, it could turn out to be a great appointment for him.

    Something dreadful is happening. I watched Arsenal v Man City on Sunday and had lost interest long before the end. Last night I watched Millwall v Watford and had lost the will to live by half time. It was like watching City under Wagner playing City under Manning which brings me back to Carrow Road. Whatever is happening there? We were warned by Bristol City fans but how can a Coach be that inflexible!! Which comes full circle back to Allardyce

    Blackburn v Ipswich to be replayed.

    Correct decision

    Disagree, on that. Match should be resumed from the 79th minute with the score at 1-0 with Ipswich only able to field 10 players.
    Otherwise why is Greaves still having serve a suspension for a foul that never occured?

    But the straight red card stands and Greaves will be suspended for 3 games, including against us.

    Edit: I think it stands because it had already happened. It may be the same for yellows, but I'm not sure. Blackburn not happy about it:

    "Whilst Blackburn Rovers respects the processes undertaken by the EFL and acknowledges the complexities involved, the club is extremely disappointed by the outcome, which fails to take into account the significant advantages Rovers held at the time of abandonment. Blackburn Rovers is committed to upholding the integrity of the competition, however we strongly feel that the decision to replay the entire fixture does not accurately reflect the circumstances on the day."

    Zoe Webber formed part of the EFL panel that made the decision on the match.
    I understand she abstained in the vote. Probably had no other choice really?

    I thought it was just a 1 match ban for Greaves. Town fans seemed delighted that he would be banned as he has made a poor start to the season

    Yeah makes her look a bit silly if she’s the only one voting against and she can’t vote in favour of Ipswich, Fans aim enough hate her way simply because of who her husband is

    Yes, I didn't realise it was a last man red card.

    That was a stupid decision by the panel. Calling the game complete at 79 min or finishing it out at a later date would have been fairer. It's even stupider that there isn't already a law in place to tell the league what to do in this situation.
