    Hope he didn't have to make any controversial calls as no doubt would be accused of bias!

    Coventry City, if I recall? I wasn't there, much to the mirth and merriment of my pals and those around my empty seat!

    I've usually had an ale or three by kick-off so I probably wouldn't have been accepted.

    Our young man running the line was in full view of the TV cameras, and put in a performance that he can boast about in the years to come.
    Grand Ouest Association Lyonnaise FC, tonight's opponents at Chateauroux, find that name too long, so are known as GOAL FC. That seems appropriate to the English, but a goal in French is a but. In a game that finished 3-2 to the hosts, we had a penalty and a red card for the GOAL coach, who didn't realize that the ref could hear his comments. Then there was the Bachmann moment when the ball rolled gently past him from a defender into an empty net. A great evening's entertainment. I hope tomorrow is as good.

    That list is an absolute joke, unless it was actually intended as a joke but then again jokes are meant to be funny or at least mildly amusing

    Right back in it now at 2-2, although Leicester are down to ten men.

    If nothing else, they've given Sky pundit Clinton Morrison a deserved slap - he was waffling on about the gap in standard between EPL and Championship - he really gets up my nose when starts with that stuff.

    But good effort Leicester.

    Yes, and they want to relegate it to a midweek competition.

    That's what the 'suits' in football specialise in - I honestly can't think of one bit of 'tinkering' they've done since I started following the game that has actually improved it in any way.

    I doubt she knows is the simple and easy answer .
    Is this going to make much difference ?

    The current Government might not even be in power soon - presume they will choose the regulator ?

    FIFA and UFEA don’t like Government interference in the game either .

    Will any rules still have to be voted in by the clubs as well.
