    It was refreshing to hear the MK Dons chairman interview yesterday. Very complementary towards WBA and Di Matteo. Seems like a very grounded guy and realises they're just another cog in the manager merry-go-round.

    Lee Martin, Man U, to Ipswich. Keane appears to have a bit of a spat with the Bristol Rovers' manager who also wanted to sign him.

    7 draws, including Wednesday losing a 2 goal lead (plus ca change) and Watford holding Doncaster at Vicerage Road. Only good news, Ipswich losing to Coventry to 2 excellent goals by Clint. I heard Keane talking about conceding "sloppy goals" but they were two great strikes by Clint. More training with the Paras for Ipswich?

    I didn't see the game but heard Ipswich played well yesterday? The championship is a tough one to call this year but I think Forest & Derby can make an impression.

    I'd like to see Derby do well. I have a buddy over there so I go over for a match or two each season. They probably have the best fans in the league. Nearly 30,000 every week for a struggling Chamionship side is incredible support.

    Was absolutely thrilled to see Warnock at the end of the goal fiasco against Bristol City. Couldn't have happened to a bigger plonker. No only does the ball cross the line but it actually hits the back of the goal and bounces out and the ref and linesman don't see it.

    He then attacks Bristol City for not allowing them to take a restart and deliberately concede a goal (this with a club he has previous with), refuses to shake hands with any of the City players and calls for a replay. Wrong on all counts.

    FiFa should try as an experiment in some lower league game video technology for some incidents and see does it "slow the game down". I am sure that their argument is, well if we allow it for goal line incidents, where will it stop. Frees, penos, bookings etc etc - games could move from 90 minutes to 120 minutes.

    I'd probably agree with goal line but some I have seen aren't clear cut. The English one in 1966 still can't be proven one way or the other.

    Love it when it happens to Warnock.

    Why does this always happen to Warnock - quite like him normally. I understand why owlsfan has a particuar dislike to the man but by all accounts he is a decent bloke when away from the pitch(unless you happen to be Wally Dowds or Gary Megson that is). He was totally wrong but so was Jordon he was way OTT but both were wrong - ahh if only warnock engaged the brain before the gob other clubs fans might actually have some sympothy for him

    Congrats on the win.

    Don't understand even long term Wednesday increasing the capacity of the stadium since when in the Premiership it was full for only a couple of games. If they have 22 million, should it not be spent on players? Also not sure where the money is coming from for this as I thought they were skint. Big deal - it's used for a few games in the World Cup. A white elephant comes to mind.

    Forest were ****. Billy Davies splashed the cash on strikers during pre season but is blaming the board for not buying him any defenders.

    Owlsfan - item on SSN saying it's 'public' money?!

    Will it be more of the same for Forest this season? it's lookin like it at the moment. I know you tipped them to do well but didn't understand the optimism, haven't been keeping track of their transfer activities or pre-season? Would have expected Billy Davies to do well there though.
