According to the Rangers fan I know at work, Gerrard will be away in summer as he's lost the dressing room with Warnock being lined up as his successor. Whether there's any truth to that I don't know, but he's generally quite clued up.
Tell him I wish him a speedy recovery. 👍

Warnock will go anywhere, he said he'd go to L2 or wherever, to get the few games (12?) he needs to have managed a 1000 games. I like him and he's got funnier as he's got older, if any club needs a "push" to avoid relegation or get into the play offs, he's your man.

Linked with Ipswich now that their wheels have come off.

Well, that was a thoroughly enjoyable day out dahn sarf, and despite John Stones bringing out the ghost of City past, we managed not to throw away a 2-0 lead. Special shout out for MoTM Phil Foden, surely must get into the squad for the Euros.

On past years' evidence, it's hard to be positive that Leeds will go up... fingers' crossed. Fulham always have a charge! Be good to see Sunderland promoted too.

Since when did the FA Cup fifth round take place on a Tuesday / Wednesday night?
Since it slid off the list of priorities for those with European aspirations. Or those wanting to eat from the money trough. The actual winner of the FA cup get a cash injection of £3 million. Each position in the Premier league is worth ANOTHER £3 million so it's more important for - say - Bournemouth to finish 12th rather than 14th in the Prem than to win the FA cup outright as that will earn them an additional £6 million and be slightly better equipped to prepare for the next season.

England. Which is the only football team in the current football league set up (Premiership, Championship, div 1, Div 2) entirely composed of letters you can't colour in? (Use your brains, people, Google is for the hard of thinking)

Scotland. Which is the only football team in the current Scottish league set up composed of none of the letters in the word 'football'?

I prefer it. The FA Cup is no longer as important as it used to be and holding the latter rounds in midweek makes sense. It also gives us some matches to watch in the evening, especially as I now find the normal TV fare has little appeal.

I'd like to say I'm going to enjoy it tonight although I think Liverpool will beat us esp' if they are taking the match seriously and field their best team.
