These people walk amongst us... and it's absolutely frightening.

That's what I am fearing. My heart cannot take a final day relegation play-off.

We have such a tough run-in, however. I would have hoped a bigger gap would have been bridged today, even if that gap was by a point. The next few weeks could really flip the switch.

Yet again, defaulted results as both Leicester and WBA draw.

Of all the matchdays where I thought the results might go in our favour, this was the one. 🙃

I feel sorry for her.

We are seemingly the only country in the top leagues of Europe that struggle with VAR. I watch the Bundesliga a lot, I bloody love that league, and VAR there is a breeze compared to the PL.

Either way, VAR exists because of the inept and, let's be face it, often biased officiating.

Lucky to come away with a point. Unlucky that it wasn't more considering we had a stonewall penalty turned down, and missed a sitter.

The refereeing in this league has a LOT to answer for, but so do our players. We MUST do better. No shots on target until injury time is a disgrace. #Rovers

Stonewall penalty. Absolutely stonewall. Pathetic. #Rovers

Judging by what I have seen, I am not bothered with missing most of the first half due to working. #Rovers

January 6th was a practice run, to test how much Trump and his aids can get away with. None of the verbal perpetrators were jailed, only the people who acted on them and have since been pardoned.

There's now laws anymore. Trump will aid the office with his military to make sure he keeps power.

If you have to give two teams a by to justify the new structure, wouldn't it just be better to, I dunno, award the team that finishes 3rd automatic promotion?

I am really puzzled as to why this idea was put forward on paper.

I am also very aware that this new model is something Rovers would have benefitted from last season and three seasons ago. But it wouldn't feel deserving - the play-offs, in general, don't. But even then, 3rd and 4th will get a by into the semis anyway. That, itself, nullifies the whole idea.

results in the run-in pan out. Adding a two extra play-off spots doesn't increase competition - it's already competitive enough. If anything, it further rewards undeserving teams.

It's not about competition as it's already very competitive. It's about money and nothing else.

And who has taken advantage of this over the last few years? Outsider teams! Luton, Ipswich, Sunderland - this season it's going to be Coventry. You can throw Millwall, PNE and a resurgent Watford into the mix of play-off hopefuls at the expense of the likes of Sheff United, depending on how the...

- teams that have faltered over the last few years and struggled to regain that traction, as the impact of that very cycle is not sustainable, financially, long-term. That cycle now consists of Burnley, Leeds, Sheff United, Leicester - the latter now dealing with the effects of it and sanctions...

I don't see the point in this. The idea that it makes an already competitive league, "more competitive" and heighten the chances of an outsider team gaining promotion, is a load of crap. For too long, the relegation-promotion cycle revolved around the same handful of teams - Norwich, Watford etc...

What a stunning goal from Osula. Goal of the season contender there!

Edwin Van Der Sar and Jamie Carragher named their top ten PL goalkeepers on Sky Sports last week after MNF, and both named Friedel as someone who should be on the list but accolades of others pushed him out. EVDS in particular said he always thought Brad was one of the best in the world at his peak.

After what must have been a 6 or 7 year campaign by @bethblade.bsky.social - pretty much for most of the time I have known her - she's finally convinced me to give New Girl another try. I am currently a few episodes into season 2 and I am actually enjoying it.

You win this round, Miss Blade.

Nobody in music has lived the pretence of intelligence through their writing, more than Billy Corgan.

He's seriously one dumbass motherfucker.
