    Interesting that Ings managed to do **** all against a team in the league he doesnt want to step down to.

    Think he should accept his days at the top are over

    Was Zouma playing with knee braces on? He was so awkward and slow. If he had made any attempt to track the Bristol player, he wouldn’t have been 50 yards behind him. Looked like a rugby player waiting for a line out.

    Was a cracking goal too. Newport stepped it up after that though and were deserved winners. Although saying that the same lad had a great chance at 2-1 which could have made things interesting.

    Think it's probably for the best that they don't play United tbh as the organisation seems nowhere near ready for that sort of fixture. Was surprised that they left all walkways open so people could walk round the pitch to different areas - don't think that's a good idea for fixtures with this sort of crowd.

    Ground loads better than when I last visited though and not really as far from FL standard as you'd expect.

    Equatorial Guinea beating Ivory Coast. Big shock if IC go out this early.

    Edit: 3-0 now. Game over.

    Ghana same. That game was mad mainly because the referee was awful.

    Bolton won tonight in League One. Now 2 points behind Pompey with 2 games in hand. Peterborough 1 point behind with 1 game in hand. Both have better goal difference. Barnsley also an outside bet for autos. Won again tonight and unbeaten in a dozen or so games.

    So you're still arguing that winning half way through a semi final is nowhere near a final?

    Interesting argument but not a particularly compelling one.
