I want to believe, really. I'm just too cynical.

I still believe we are finishing third. It's just how it works.

Looking forward this now, 7 games left, progress in all areas. Lovely.

Relax, the East Midland is an eyesore anyway. Let the gasworks flourish!!!

That really was edge of the seat stuff. Such a shame that Perez made that error and also stayed out one lap too long on the inters. Sauber and Perez should have won that, they may never get a better chance.

Sergio Perez is looking really strong. Surely he can do this!

What a statement from Nigel, take off Rickie, the talisman and let the squad shine. Real bottle to do that. Delighted for Billy, surprised at the vigour of his celebrations. If I was a Donny fan I would feel a little aggrieved. Great win. 5 from 7 needed now.

How's the training going then guys? I've managed 10 miles for the first time tonight, hurting a bit now mind. Achieved it in 1 hour, 39 minutes and 19 seconds. Rather pleased, 7 months to get quicker now.

On the basis of my straw maths. 50 million in costs after outgoings.

All in, I reckon 50 million pounds of spend. Outgoing: Assuming 20 players on 10k a week for the last three years, a club purchase price of 25 million, And player purchases of 6 million. Incoming: Crowds of 15k per week over 25 games per season paying 15 quid each and player sales of 12 million. Really basic maths. Rough estimate. (These are the only variables i've worked from.)

Relax, it's sarcasm more then anything.

Reminds me a bit of Burnley, defeated Man Utd, got great praise for the atmosphere at Turf Moor, a proud history, reasonably well known club yet no need to move away from a ground that is antiquated on at least two sides. They just arn't that big, just like the Skates. The blue few simply arn't that special, and to suggest otherwise is an insult to the rest of the footballing community. It's up there with the 'Geordie Nation' boll*cks as one of the most deluded stereotypes in the modern game.

Don't forget the boil in the bag burgers.....

Take advantage while you still can!

Maybe not every single one, but I do like the look of the league table right now.

I feel a bit Charlton (trailing off around Easter.)

You know what i'm going to say....... .....

I wonder if he still stands by the second statement there.

Big 'if,' it depends on Markus Liebherr's wishes and will after death. We will almost certainly never know the details of that though considering how private his estate is.

That's just it, they do!

We pay more money but our consciences are clean. With cunning like that you would make a good Skate.

More biased then the leaning tower of Pisa. I love it.

Personally I prefered De Ridder's role as sweeper, #hic#

I always park around/near College Street, either in the car park itself or in the street spaces by the Solent Uni Halls of residence., costs about a fiver for the afternoon. Just nip over the new railway bridge and past the flats, through the industrial estate towards the Family End. When driving anyway, I prefer to take the train after staying in Winchester if I don't need to get back to Coventry.

No-one to pay for but me, 400 pounds a month ish. Save the remainder.
