Amazingly Forest up to 3rd after their win today. Suspect their fans are starting to think they’re just about back where they belong.

Look forward to seeing that man-baby Guardiola on MOTD having the usual massive sulk he has whenever City dont win. Apparently theyre down to the bare bones..or their last 14 or 15 £50m+ players in other words. Must be tough for them. for a guy who pins his badge to the rich and influential Tories I don't get your angst against the rich and famous City... Thats such a strange comment I dont know how to respond  |

It's madness how mk dons Vs Wimbledon in the fa cup hasn't made it on tv It would have been an automatic choice ten years ago, but more often than not they're already playing each other twice a season these days. The TV companies have enjoyed a 100% success rate on their 1st Round selections so far. |

Birmingham taking it seriously. Not messing around with their team.

Amazingly Forest up to 3rd after their win today. Suspect their fans are starting to think they’re just about back where they belong. And they've just conceded 7 goals in their 10 games (only Liverpool are currently tighter at the back). Our paths have certainly diverged since that final..... |

Just back home from Sutton v Birmingham. Sutton tried hard but Birmingham were always in control. Dykes, Jutkiewicz and May on the bench for the bluenoses, Stansfield started. Have to say, none of them impressed (Dykes didn’t get on) but it shows the strength they have up front. Their three Korean players looked tidy.

Yes but as we all know mate, we have players who get injured at the drop of a hat. Therefore making changes has to be done, all those players who came in will play in the league or have. |

A very harsh red and penalty went against us, plus their first goal was offside. Walsall are no mugs, as they've since shown. |

We had a settled side in the first 4 games before Walsall. We've had a settled side in the last 5. Now we go into the game at Crawley under unnecessary pressure. That result on Friday has knocked every bit of positivity out of the last 5 games. |

It would have been there turn after all . |

Another classic there from Peter Drury, the cliche man.
"HE HAS HIT THAT WITH SPECIAL PURITY!"
Cos that's a phrase you often hear at football matches when a goal is scored.
What a total knob-jockey.

Horay for Harrogate, they showed money bags Hollywood FC. Just checking up on the FA Cup games and noticed the BBC said Wrexham losing to Harrogate was a real shock.. Well maybe on current form but they were in the same league last season? Be like someone from the Championship beating Leicester or something really... |

Have to say, none of them impressed (Dykes didn’t get on) but it shows the strength they have up front. Their three Korean players looked tidy. Only one of them is Korean. The other two are Japanese, Iwata won J-League player of the year and then joined Celtic. Couldn’t get into the team ahead of their Captain, that was smart business by Birmingham, probably didn’t need technology to tell them he was worth buying. |

I think Wycombe Wanders fancy a top two spot......3-0 up at Stockport after only 20 mins.

Would love Wycombe to beat Brum to the title. Won’t happen but would be funny as fuck after all the money they have spaffed.

Not tonight (acc BBC), they're playing with a back four in a 4-2-3-1 setup.......Bit more flexible than some of the 'only one formation' teams. |

It was a poor dig at our boss thinking 352 is the only way to succeed in this division. It also appears that you can find better players in the Essex Senior League than the Finish Premier league |
