    Accrington Stanley vs Portsmouth live on Sky Sports tomorrow at 12:00.

    James Beattie's first home game as Stanley boss, against Pompey. Definitely watching that. I expect he'll cop some abuse.

    Beattie on expected Pompey abuse:

    "If they sing and chant at me all game I will be happy with that because they won’t be having a go at the players and hopefully that will let them get on with the job of trying to get three points.

    Whatever abuse they throw at me, it happened a long time ago. If they want to dwell on it that’s their problem, not mine.

    They will only give me stick and they will only remember me because of what I did in a Southampton shirt, which is history. It’s gone.

    They are good memories for Southampton fans but some unfortunate ones for Portsmouth fans.

    There’s a lot of support for me coming from the west of Portsmouth.

    I’ve had a few messages and I know the whole of Southampton will be behind me."

    Connolly really is too clever by half for League Two.

    Is it wrong that this makes me miss lower leagues a little bit? I now want to go out and buy a massive Against Modern Football poster, which quotes Bundesliga ticket prices in comparison to those of the Prem, buy an Artur Boruc hat (In yellow, for Dortmund) and then TP the Etihad.

    Probably the poorest quality football match i've seen in ages. Dreadful. How bad are Middlesbrough, if they lost to Accrington?

    Middlesbrough have won three games in their last 26.

    Wait, Agyemang can get that kind of contact on an overhead kick, but couldn't get a decent touch with an open net?

    Connolly is way too good for this league. For the record, I have predicted Boro to go down in the championship this year.
