Apparently McCarron was in the ground last night. I didn’t think he’d stick around. Pretty sure this wasn’t what he was promised in interview….

Only had radio commentary to go on but I’m furious that the last 10 minutes of effort wasn’t shown every single bloody match. That is unforgivable.

I’m away for work, no TV with Sky and just the Talksport commentary and this excellent forum. By the rabid screams of the Talksport commentators (I know that’s the House Style), it seems as if in the last 10 minutes we appear to be trying. Surely some mistake?

He didn’t say whose corners….

And they took back Ward, didn’t they. Surely they wouldn’t bite a third time?

It's depressing to think Winks' contract extension was triggered so we've got him till June 27 and right now, I can't work out whether I absolutely want rid, or whether I'd prefer that he is forced to be a League 1 footballer for a season.

Its the WBA points deduction I had in mind.

Don't know why you're saying dream on - I don't think we'll do it for a second and didn't suggest we would - I'm just trying to work out the position. And I guess the possible points deduction would factor in too.

If WBA win today, and go to 49 points along with Blackburn and Charlton, we'd have to win all three of our remaining matches - that's right isn't it?

so we'll still be able to see him play

and there we go

TBF, he could be trying to take matters into his own hands, take the shirt, run on and replace him. Go on, Nacho - grab the No 10 shirt and give it a go. You and the lad can't do any worse and will at least try.

That's both his and my recurring nightmare

One of the finest defensive midfielders every to play. How did it go? 70% of the Earth is covered by water, the other 30% by Kante. Averaged over 11.5 km per match, but he didn't just run or keep possession to keep up the distance stat, I think his combined tackles and interceptions rate is still one of the very best there's ever been. It was genuinely like having an extra player. AI has put together this comparison, admittedly on that record breaking season, but it's not like he dipped much in later seasons.... The following table compares Kanté’s record-breaking 2015/16 rates with the current season's leading defensive contributors.

Good point, and I apologise if I read it wrong but I've never really heard of anyone calling Atletico Madrid simply Madrid! RM seems to have cornered the market. I think Bayern are a good shout.
