Can't see us selling Akinde to any other club in this division and not sure that Akinde would want to join another. His value is less in this window than January but still going to take a big bid as he has two years left on his contract.

To finish this off, here are the breakdowns of the average positions predicted by everyone. Mean being the traditional average. Mode being the position that most people predicted a team to finish Median the middle position of the sequence if all the predictions for a team were put in order...

Good spot. Nice and easy to slot in.

I think a lot of people were prognossing that, not including our chairman, who thought he filled the brief of an experienced manager.

Robson has to be the worst, even allowing for some mitigating factors. He chose to play a style of football that was never going to work without a seriously good budget, which was never going to be an option at Underhill. As for Nugent, well about 4 games too late. Shouldn't have got the job...

The issue with this statement for me is the stupid spin that the club are trying to put on the last couple of months. Good news! Our crap form has given us the perfect opportunity to give some of the younger players a chance. If it wasn't stupid enough just for that, we've been giving the...

Turns out that corner we kept going around only brought us back to where we started. Poor performance against a well organised Stevenage side. The highlight was Alfie. Brought the house down, not only with his answer to the patronising guy with the mike, but also the way he stomped off back...

Well, well. First win under Nugent and hopefully a corner turned. What's waiting around that corner, only our old friends from up the A1. We've been busy going down blind alleys and up garden paths under Nugent, so much so that a one point gap between us the day he took over is now 11...

Cheltenham are a very bad side on that showing. Looked like two teams playing out a relegation 6 pointer. We were awful for 70 minutes and still won it by 2 clear goals. Nugent has kept saying that one win can see us turn the corner. Well, we were gifted one, so let's see what this does.

Will we get a win at last? Will we get to see a good game of football rather than having to wait until the post match interview to be told we saw one? Will a supporter be told to f'#k off? Not sure I can take the anticipation. 0-0 after Cheltenham go down to 9 men in the 6th minute.

I've not looked at that Facebook page for ages - I'd almost forgotten about it. I knew I shouldn't have looked. Like when you are off work for a week and you know you shouldn't check your work Skype messages when you go on to look at a personal message. You know you'll regret it, and 5...

Ordinarily I would say 7 games is nowhere near long enough for reviewing a manager's position, but this is the exception to the rule. It was a completely ill conceived appointment, both in timing and the man himself. He realistically had 5 games to be a success because of these factors, and...

It was a poor game between two poor sides that was illuminated by a wonder goal by Akinola. We got away with it thanks to a complete fluke and a draw was a fair result as no team showed enough quality to deserve to win it. Bover is completely wasted playing that deep. He has as good a...

Bellew's a world champion, and rightly so, at Cruiserweight. That's elite.

Harsh night tonight as that's three boxers put into retirement - Mathews, Malignaggi and Haye (should be). Davis looks a really class act and should be fighting at world level sooner rather than later. Feel quite smug as I called Bellew a few months back to beat Haye. Great fighter in his...

Well done Bellew.

Class from Ranieri. Had every right to be bitter about what happened, but gave a very dignified statement. Was always going to be difficult this year following last years massive over achievement. Don't agree that last year gave them momentum as human nature will tend towards relaxing after...

I've not known a build up to Cheltenham to have so many injuries. Gutted about Thistlecrack as I backed him a long time back at 10/1 and I'm as certain as you can be about a race that hasn't happened that he would have hacked up. Fair play to Paddy Power for refunding my stake as a free bet...

Leyton Orient's next manager. He's earned the right after graduating from the circus in Eastleigh. We've good a good solid pro for his first signing that I know he likes as he was always singing his praises. S Batt and a snip at only £50k.
