    The Premier League will be a more entertaining place for having Ian Holloway around too. They asked him a couple days before the match what it would mean to get Blackpool promoted, and he basically said, "Yeah, they build statues of you if you do things like that."

    And they averaged about 8,100 and change per game last year. I think they were near the bottom of the Championship in average attendance.

    SKY Sports showed the bus pulling up this morning. Yes, the aforementioned "huge ass party" looked like it was in full swing.

    I said the same thing to my daughter as we were watching the game. As a defender, she said "There's nothing wrong with that style of play, Dad." I said "Of course there isn't ... if you're playing it."

    And it sounds like you can understand what he's saying as well.

    Mick McCarthy sounds like he's a pretty entertaining guy, Desk. Problem is, I can't understand two-thirds of what Mick's saying.

    Rangers have released the design for their new kit a lot earlier than last year (they basically waited until a week before the first game) and it is a cracker!

    Figured it was best to put this here rather than the other thread.

    Anyone have questions for David Seaman? I have an interview with him tomorrow morning and half my material is gone now that he's ponytail-less.

    Sometimes reading rumors is rather funny. This one has me laughing...

    Don't know about Gooch making it. He's not healthy. At all.

    Gooch is healthy enough to risk. There is no other option that is close as I don't consider Marshall a viable option.
