    "But good English players are expensive"

    And how much did those two cost? Zilch! If you are shrewd there are bargains out there, also it's worth paying the extra cash as they are more likely to be a successful signing unlike most of this foreign dross we have.

    He spent £52 million?? No wonder he wanted to keep them undisclosed.

    The first managerial departure of the Championship season, and not surprisingly it comes down at Brentford.

    They are following a blueprint not too dissimilar from us, with a coach put in place while a network of scouts scour Europe for players of a certain profile.

    To think they got rid of Mark Warburton too <doh>

    Hot on the case of Brentford, Steve Evans and assistant Paul Raynor leave Rotherham.

    Strange, as they've picked up over the last 3 games.

    That's a shame actually; I strangely like him and he was clearly a very effective manager.

    He's the sort of person that years ago I would have detested becoming Charlton manager, but now it would be a nice change.

    He is not as suave as Quique Flores but he worked wonders on a shoestring. I am sure a lower division club will snap him up.

    I think he's one of those 'you hate him when he's the opposition, warm to him when he's one of yours'.

    Imagine him and Roland!

    Goal by Morro to send Brum into the play-off places. Still at least our scouts really know what they're doing.

    Has anyone else noticed that in the video for Bryan Adams and Melanie C's zeitgeist busting 90s classic 'When You're Gone' Bryan Adams is actually played by the former Rotherham United manager Steve Evans?

    I did not.

    Melanie C has to be the only spice girl that's got hotter as she's got older.

    On the basis that Ginger and Scary have maintained their hotness over time then yes.

    While Posh seems to have had a face transplant with an animal where the rest of the body has been used for some very nice streaky bacon <ok>

    Damn the international break - we're now discussing the spice girls.

    Has baby lost it then? She was the winner back in the day.

    Emma Bunton still would have been in her mid 20s when the spice girls was about. Is there something Jimmy Saville about that?
