    Oxford United result is excellent for us if it further demoralises Swans. Very unfortunate for them (remembering Luton <eek>)

    Feel happy for Oxford. Beautiful City's like Oxford and Cambridge should both have teams in the championship at least.

    They did - they were not good enough for long enough.

    I know the teams weren't. I'm talking about the City's.

    The binners would be a league of their own somewhere below; Susan Boyles armpit XI, the sewer systems below bombay XI and the space between Donald trumps wig and his big sweaty oversized head XI!

    Bah!

    LVG: "Fans may have left to beat traffic"

    You have to give it to him, he is very stern faced and dry, but he has a sense of humor.

    Jorge Sampaoli is a surprise name mentioned for the Chelsea job in the summer. I'd never heard of him before, but apparently just stepped down as Chile head coach. That would be a risk.

    West Ham looking at Arteta from Arsenal. I think that would be a decent bit of business for them. I don't think he's anywhere good enough to play for a team like Arsenal, but a decent player for a mid-table side.

    Balls.

    Looks like Newcastle have agreed a fee with another French League Gem. Henri Saivet.

    I think he was good enough, but too many injuries set him back too many times. Would be a risk for West Ham though because as I said, he does seem to get injured quite a lot.

    Oxford get Newport County/Blackburn
    Colchester get Spurs or Leicester at home
    Scum if they get through get Bournemouth.

    Bolton need to be bought within 48hrs to avoid administration. Feel for their fans. They're already bottom of the League and face a 12 point deduction to leave them 16 points for safety.
