I'd buy twice as many.

One for you Alps

Over one game it might be down to luck but over 38 games it loses all significance.

Everybody is more skilful than Benali.

We might now be facing Liverpool in the final.

The sign of desperation of a worried man under pressure.

Indeed. But why did it take such a tragedy to get them removed?

I shall always remember him for that Arsenal goal. I can't wait for the next

I can see what you're saying here. At this level everything happens very quickly and I have no doubt that Kane's movement would have been enough to distract Forster for the fraction of a second that meant that he was just too late to claim the ball at Son's feet. His view of Son's run will have been obscured by Kane just enough to cause a misjudgement of whether he could intercept the ball but not enough to have been given as offside. Under the present interpretation the ruling was correct but back in my day Kane would have been flagged and rightly so. As Bill Nicholson said: 'If he's not interfering, what is he doing on the pitch?'

This is the time of the season when every football fan looks back and thinks 'what if'? I agree with Alps. We took some time to get a settled team, especially in the first few weeks and it takes time for new players to settle into the local environment and to start to feel part of the routine.

A couple of positioning mistakes but he has a physical presence and offers a lot going forwards. I like to think that he can get better.

When are the playoffs? I need to know when to start laughing.

Was that me? Blimey I must have been ****ed.

Let's hope so! Dinner on me this time

I'd take it I have a bank account in Nigeria just waiting for it.

Was that the last ever game at WHL? Fabulous result, who'd 'a thought it.

Yes, yes, but which is which???

One thing about Apple MAC PCs is that they generally last much longer than other makes. In principle the commands are similar but they take some getting used to. Fore instance instead of a CTRL key there is one marked CMD (looks like a cross section of the Tower of London) which you use in conjuncion with others. Uninstalling programs is a doddle, just drag them to the recycle bin. Right-click should also give you a range of options. You should be able to find all the help you need on the web somewhere, just ddon't expect an operator's manual from Apple. Explore and have fun!

For me, Leicester have won it with their defence. First keep a clean sheet and the rest will follow. As for good football, I like to see pace and movement, a team where the players have instinctive understanding of each other, defence-splitting passes into spaces that I didn't know existed. Unfortunately I don't think we've come near to that this season and I don't think the constant team changes help either. It's interesting to see that Leicester have tended to keep the same team most of the time.

We'd never hear the end of it. I had enough trouble keeping down the vomit over tonight's commentary.

The climate is always changing. I have only argued about who or what to blame.

Well that's what I'm saying, we need to win both games and hope. If we remain in 8th place then we get nothing, right? Also.... do I want Liverpool to get thrashed tonight, or do I want them to scrape through but still finish below us? If they get through then they may concentrate on the final and ease up on the league. Alternatively if they get knocked out then they may redouble their league efforts in order to qualify for next season.

Nothing has been agreed, merely proposed. (hence your asterisks?) Brussels can propose what it likes but it's up to the members to agree to it's proposals. In the present climate that's unlikely. Even the Schengen arrangements are being suspended. Turkey has to be kep onside by dangling carrots but they will be kept out of reach. No, I don't believe a word Cameron or any other politician says either. He changes his words to suit his audience. The point remains that accession would require unanimity and one way to prevent Turkey from joining is to remain in the EU and veto it

Does it make any difference to us? We still need to win our last two games and hope for the best, don't we?
