The Cat

I can't believe Brighton haven't taken a punt on him. They certainly know about him as my other half's cousin works for Brighton and only mentioned him to me a couple of weeks ago. Good news for the other teams chasing promotion in the Ryman South though. Eastleigh must be gutted!

You can add Paul Telfer and Neil McCann to that list too.

Quality news. Go us.

Well we are the Man City of the Championship apparently. If we signed all of them we'd almost have as many strikers as West Ham.

Popped into Next today, looked more like Primark than anything. In fact the whole of town appeared to be a bun fight. Couldn't find much I was looking for. Maybe there was some good stuff in the sales but not anymore. Had to laugh at all the grumpy looking hen-pecked blokes being dragged around by their other halfs. Just tell them to go by themselves and sit in the pub or something. Weirdos.

Drink in Brighton, plenty of decent pubs near the station. Last season we went to the The Evening Star which has a ridiculous selection of ales if that's your thing.

Do you know if these available on the day or advance tickets only?

Me too. The latest rumour I have heard is that a deal for Rodriguez is sorted. This is from a different person at work than the one who told me we're in talks with Vokes. Probably means we'll sign neither!

Get a humane trap, put chocolate spread in it. Catch mouse, take to a country lane, release from trap. Hit with shovel.

Blimey, trains are cheap for this. £9.90 return from Central with a railcard, £15 without.

Not anymore. They were based on Omega house near the train station/Swan Centre but moved out a while ago. I worked there for a 18 months or so. My boss got put in prison for fraud after he set up false accounts, moved money into them and used the proceeds to buy a bloomin big house round Fair Oak way. And he was one of the more sound people that worked there, the rest of the bosses were complete ****s. Anyway I own 2 Tissot watches I got from there for free. Both are decent.

Liked this from a match report on a Millwall website: Portsmouth. The eternal fall guys of the football league they have been forced in recent times to reword the famous ‘chimes’ song as it is now “pay up Pompey, Pompey, pay up” as the debt ridden club try their damndest to keep the once proud club out of the clutches of the receivers and almost certain doom. Their once proud and slightly rambunctious fans are a sad, pale imitation these days, opting to dress up in Father Christmas outfits and deriding opposition fans lack of prowess in singing witty ditties. How far they have fallen….so sad…so sad…but somehow, quite funny. The premier league has a lot to answer for yet again, ripping the heart out of a club and then kicking them into touch and leaving them to rot and wither away, left to their own devices to try and climb back into the not so promised land of huge payments and even huger wage packages that make no sense whatsoever. Still, it gives us a chuckle at their idiocy. http://www.hof.org.uk/entry.php?b=317

I change mine just before your Mum comes round and then again after she's left so my other half doesn't get a whiff of her stench.

I wish it was me! Sadly it's just a picture I saw on twitter. There's been some brilliant entries to this though and despite the fact I'm not one for away day themes I do agree with Crazy Diamond that it would be funny if people turned up at a game with them. Presumably some may bring them to the Palace game on Monday.

Cheers. Looks like I have a bit of a dilemma on my hands!

Down to be played on Saturday 28th April at a TBC time. I could be wrong here, but I seem to recall Championship final games being on the Sunday because they aren't played at the same time as Premiership games, so is this current date likely to be right or will all games be moved to the Sunday? Reason I ask is that I have been invited to a wedding near Newcastle on the 28th April and I'm buggered if I'm going to miss the possibility of Saints winning the game and getting promoted!!

British public in choosing the right winner for once shock. The programme really is a complete pile of arse now though. The BBC wasted far too much time wasted banging on about the phone numbers and shoving their collective penis up Redgrave's arse again.

Sam Vokes in talks with Saints according to the husband of someone I work with who knows his Dad. Clearly could be nonsense but I sense he has no reason to make it up.

The juxtaposition between the fans on packed buses from St Mary's all singing against those from Winchester on empty buses sat around reading the paper was quite funny. Wonder what the BBC camera's were doing on the buses though? Possible feature on Inside Out or something?

It was Preston.

And Matty, obviously.

Apart from the appalling punctuation.

Turkey. Haven't had one at Xmas for far too long. Got it from Owton's so it's bound to be quality. Gammon too. Pigs in blankets, homemade stuffing. No sprouts or Xmas pudding though. They are just wrong.

A Barnsley fan got done too. 3 year ban. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-16266787
