    I doubt rmthey would get let into the PL. they would probably have to start in at least the championship which as we know us a killer to get out of. Also they would pretty much never play in Europe again so other than the PL to money it's not that attractive a deal anyway.

    I think they should start with Conference North and work their way up.

    They should not even start in the Ryman League, it's not the fault of the English that the Scots generally choose to support 1 of 2 clubs north of the border rather than their local side because of their religious beliefs. The English and the Scots don't get on well in footballing circles at the best of times, the last thing we want is for them to bring their sectarianism down here as well IMO <ok>

    From a report on MK Dons vs Northampton last night:

    "Josh Murphy, who is on loan from Norwich City made a real impact in the second half for the Dons and doubled their lead with half an hour to play".

    {I wonder if he'll ever get the chance to make a 'real impact' for his parent club? :emoticon-0112-wonde }

    I was listening to 5 Live and they said he was just of target with a shot a few minutes after coming on and then scored a good goal a few minutes later.
    Yes, I feel if he doesn't get a chance with NCFC in the next year or so, he may well be a star elsewhere!!

    Why dont they just add about 4 teams, at least to the Scottish premiership? So they don't have to watch each match 4 times before you even have to probably play them in the cup. Must be soooo boring!

    Elliott Ward signs for Blackburn, It's like Paul Lambert is assembling a NCFC side...

    I know it was only Exeter, but from the highlights, Jordan Ibe looked fantastic again.

    Sebastien Bassong has made the most defensive clearances in the Premier League this season, with 185.

    Unfortunately, it doesn't give that level of detail!

    In unrelated news, I just had a bet with a Liverpool-supporting colleague of mine. £5.
    I've got Norwich to win or a draw. He's got Liverpool to win.
