    Kane's comments are naive at best, outright disgraceful at worst.
    I was never a fan of him being captain - never demonstrated any of the true leadership qualities. Only rationale for him wearing the armband was down to his status a player.
    All that notwithstanding, talking publicly and so negatively about a clubs mindset that he could and should have influenced is pretty stupid! <doh>

    I have long stated that GK/forwards cannot be captain, as their :

    1. sum interaction with team-mates tends to be lowest
    2. involvement in play in all areas of the pitch is not highest


    Add to the above that Kane himself on pitch
    is not a rousing presence to both team and support,
    and he is far from the qualities of an on-pitch leader.

    His national team failed to call up either of their ex-Spurs options.
    Caulker's also without a club, having been released by Wigan in the summer.

    Sierra Leone lost 2-1 to Guinea-Bissau earlier today.
    GB have some famous names on their books, like B. Fernandes, Balde, Mendy, Mane and Jardel.
    One of them plays for Accrington Stanley! <laugh>

    Yeah he does. Said in the pre-match conference that he’ll keep an eye on us and is happy at our start.

    Bloke’s still fully COYS.

    Two goals for Jack Clarke and an assist for Alex Pritchard. <ok>
    Markanday came off the bench for Blackburn and curled one off the post.

    Joe Hart got sent off for Celtic at Livingston after 28 minutes with the score at 1-0.
    They won 3-0. <doh>

    Original Aussie Spur so scored the winner for Ipswich today.
    They had been 3-1 up against Blackburn, but the Lancastrians had levelled things.
    Kieran McKenna's side are in 2nd now, having won 7 of their 8 games.



    And that's why you don't punch out to the edge of your own box.

    I was at that game in seats ,got a Brilliant view of that goal , I had to bite my tongue all the way through the game while some tosser nearby bad mouthed Hoddle, when that went in I didn't hold back and let him know what I thought of his poxy team and stadium, we had a steward standing over us for the rest of the game
    Chris Houghton scored one and Steve Archibald came off the bench and scored, Alan Brazil was in the team if I remember correctly
