This is the way it works when we support a club who have almost a decade between their current balance sheet and their last parachute payment. Good luck to the young players whether they stay to try and follow Hackney's path or go to what is obviously a much bigger operation.

I think that this is probably the reason why so many don't sing, if they've been given specific instructions and are going over them again and again in their head.

No new manager can beat the ultimate wow moment of Jason Euell, so let's not set Mr Edwards up to fail with ridiculous expectations.

Saying that someone has missed a penalty when the keeper saved it. Either praise the ability to save a penalty kick or say that the attacker failed to score; miss implies that it's ballooned past the bar or post and headed into the stand.

It might be like one of those early morning lessons at secondary school when a teacher's off, you collectively realise that if you just keep a lid on things you're going to get an hour to yourself, hoping against hope that someone doesn't come in with actual work for you to do while they're...

This could be a good plot for a football movie. A dashing young manager, fiery on the touchline, dashing for the ladies and a sign of English football evolving, is actually just a mouthpiece for a bloke who makes the decisions from home, monitoring cameras during training sessions and feeding...

Nobody, which says a lot about my hopeful optimism last summer! I would definitely feel frustrated if Conway left as he's young, capable of scoring and would work well with another goalscorer in the squad. If Hackney left then it'll be for something to get his teeth into and I wish him well.

Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays were always going to be an awkward ask for that in the Championship, but fair play for sticking to something you so firmly believe in.

It makes sense because Chris Wilder is, as he says himself, a Premier League manager. Why were they wanting that in the Championship? Ideas above their station on that side of Sheffield.

It had been bogged down in licensing problems and is only now freely available to see, but there was no HD cleanup, was there? I watched it a few days ago and thought that it's a good example of not needing a mega budget for a great story. Plenty of recent movies have all the special effects...

I think it can depend on how much sway the remaining members had in writing the original songs. Alice in Chains have been going for quite a while now without their original singer, but the rest of the band didn't just play a tune behind him in the first place. Velvet Revolver and Audioslave...

I broadly agree with those opinions in the poll. I think that Whittaker's fee might sway people, including me. We've wasted the same money on Saville and Fletcher before, so I would like to see with a different manager if he's capable of even contributing assists, if not goals.

I don't get them with every page opening, but the ones I do get have a 'continue' button like I see on other sites, big enough to tap the ad away. That is preferable to those little X icons which are the size of a single pixel on some websites.

I'm sure that Wednesday were giving it Daddy Cool to his name. Works well.

So long as his second season trophy isn't the League One title.
