Thirty-four quid for a ticket - that really was outrageous. I mean, it really is! Should have got a rebate after missing the first ten mins stuck in traffic. Looked like a typical end-of-season game. Thompson was running down blind alleys trying to find an outlet whilst retaining possession. McEveley I'm not convinced by, Neill looked surprisingly secure, Brad was solid, Pedersen struggled to get the better of his man and Stead just looked worn out. The drummer got right on my t*ts (as usual), and there seemed to be a bit of antagonism with the home fans. Roll on next season.

Am I being melodramatic in thinking "human trafficking". God, it's bordering on obscene.

I don't know, perhaps he's relying on the brand name, ie fans will still turn up without any further transfer spending. I think he'd have to be a prize chump to demand that players eg Rooney are sold off. But I guess we'll find out.

He's an incredibly rich chap with incredibly large liabilities. I wouldn't say that he has the same business strategy of Abramovich. I should imagine he'll be looking to maximise profits, and then sell the club on a few years down the line for more than he paid for it.

There's a lesson in there for Rovers! Jack was considering turning the club public, I'm thankful that he didn't. You can easily fall prey to people who see the club in purely monetary terms, rather than equating success with money, they equate extracting as much money as possible whilst spending s0d all, as their aim. Or so it would seem, anyway. Long way from Michael Knighton making a ?10m bid anyhow.

His agent is blek though as well!

Is he in the new Star Wars film?

Jeepers. I can feel the pain now, as that 50 is handed over. Oooh, baby!

You can't keep on blaming luck. Sooner or later it will go on so long that it's clealry nothing to do with luck. No-one has a 2-year unlucky streak.

Yeah, 'cos of course most footballers are solid upright citizens. Bellamy may well be a prune in the first degree, but it's not like he's a stranger in a strange land. They're all a bunch of brain-dead thickos, substituting true contentment for material wealth and shoving it in the faces of the people who bought it for them. Bellamy is just a cartoon character who stands out from the rest. Take your blinkers off. There's exceptions I presume, but I see nothing to dissuade me that football is populated by a bunch of spoilt morons who don't know the value of anything.

He doesn't sound that much different to David Dunn, and he's still worshipped by some.

Did he get a red card for assaulting Phil Brown then? A moot point maybe, but clearly this dude is talking out of his hat!

Nothing really - just takes 10 mins or so to get used to.

Wonderful journalism. Don't worry about the truth, just spout a load of cack and get people to buy it. For goodness' sakes whatever you do, don't indulge in balanced, measured, informative reportage - that's a cardinal sin of journalism. Pander to the perceived prejudices of your readership and insult their intelligence. Well done. Splendid.

Not ripped off once, but twice with this fellow. If he fails to win anything up there I'll not have an ounce of sympathy. Whoever Rangers played on 3rd April it was on telly and I have to say an awful game.

The FA bow to media pressure to appear hardline then brick it when it comes to the crunch and let people off. More appeals to the FA than on a banana plantation. And why not? 75% of the time they cave in. Because footy clubs weild all the power.

Or scythe the fields at a naturist park ... yoweee! You are a wonder nobbing all those birds whilst being dickless.

Jan, why did such an innocent little joke provoke such a disproportionate response? Chill out.

Brohlin! Dahlin! Brolin! Brohlin! Dahlin! Brolin! Brohlin! Dahlin! Brolin! Brohlin! Dahlin! Brolin! Rawhide! Sorry, couldn't resist!

piddle?

Not seen too much of him this season, but he's always tended to be a bit of a lunger, well since he's slowed down anyway, don't think his injuries have helped in that sense. Can occasionally come out with moments of magic, like that goal at Wimbledon in 2000.

I wouldn't put a team of rookies out, but one or two fresh faces wouldn't go amiss. We've carried one or two passengers this year anyway. Can't be any harm at all in giving say a striker a couple of games, especially with us being so tight at the back.

The charge has been chucked out - see official site. What a bl00dy waste of everyone's time!

You've gottsa laugh you really have!
