Surprised about this. He's been there for as long as I can remember and is highly thought of for the work he did under Simon Jordan.

Macclesfield Town's players have told Sky Sports News they have not been paid their January wages. The Silkmen lead the race for a return to the EFL, sitting one point ahead of Aldershot Town at the top of the Vanarama National League with 15 games remaining. Macclesfield's form has taken something of a nosedive since the turn of the year, with draws against struggling Solihull Moors and Torquay United, a 6-0 hammering at the hands of AFC Fylde and a first-round FA Trophy exit against FC Halifax Town.

Sky sources understand Celtic will sign Dundee goalkeeper Scott Bain on loan until the end of the season after Hibernianagreed to cut short his loan deal. Hibernian will sign Celtic midfielder Scott Allan on loan after Dundee agreed to cut short their loan deal. Allan played for Hibernian between 2014-2015 Hibernian striker Simon Murray will sign for Dundee on loan until the end of the season.

Eight million now. Testing the waters.

Wolfsburg have signed Admir Mehmedi from Bayer Leverkusen.

Baba Rahmans back at Schalke. Forgot he was still at Chelsea.

Now you see, I can forgive them for that. The Bella's doing relatively well was going to happen due to the total divas show actually competing with viewer levels of all the housewife shows, which is what they were initially hoping for (possibly even better). They know that wrestling fans don't have much time for this, or how the Bella's have managed to get these lucrative positions, so the crowd and viewers were emotively going to want them to get eliminated. Whilst somebody like Sacha Banks can behave as arrogant and confident as she did but the viewers wouldn't necessarily be emotively booing her. The further Nikki was getting, the more I was thinking "please don't mess this up Vince", just because of how favourable she's been treated previously. So in all it ended up being a final two of somebody people really wanted to see win, against somebody they didn't but was 'best for business' which is possibly the most emotive showdown in terms of crowd reaction they could have had. Also not having Rhonda involved was great. Having a UFC star debut and make wrestlers look second rate at a historic occasion would have dented the occasion.

Couple of RR opinions: - Didn't really enjoy any of the singles or tag matches. - The men's RR for two thirds of it was terrible with a flat atmosphere. I think that was due to the astonishment it was on so early and it felt like a mid card contest. The last third pulled it back though and the right person won. - The women's RR couldn't have really been any better. The right returns and the right set of action. I don't like the constant publicity The Bella's get but the whole thing was scripted well and the right person won. - In hindsight I'm glad the women's match was on last. The actual wrestling for most parts was better than what the men put on. Two men in particular who always divide opinion were very monotonous and robotic. They got booed as it is but had it of been the other way round I reckon the boos would have been louder.

For months I've wanted him to win the Royal Rumble but I never thought they would go through with it. Just wish it was on last.

Loic Remy off to Getafe.

7:42 'CITY RESTRAINED BY BUDGET' Pep Guardiola says Manchester City are not always able to pay high transfer fees and meet player's wage demands as the club is operating within a defined budget. He said: "When you want to handle four competitions sometimes you have to be lucky with injuries. Otherwise you need 22 top players for every position. People don't believe this, but today 22 top players is too expensive to buy, even [for] City. "Their salaries we cannot pay. There are budgets for the transfers and we cannot pay. In the future, it may change but we haven't paid more than £80m-£100m for one player. We cannot pay that right now, it is the truth. "That's why we need the academy to fight. Of course, we spend a lot money but it is the same money as a lot of other teams. I can assure you we are not the only team in the world that spend money." Small time club.

The constant references to how great the product once was started doing my head in. I don't want to hear how great the product once was. I want the talent that's around right now to create their own legacy.

It was an example that Paul Sturrock and others have used about the situation, and not for the reasons you've just ranted about. They were ashamed of the way the club was previously run when there's people in the same industry making a lot more money. It was a case of "we can't be in that situation again when this is happening a couple of league's above us". If Leicester pay off their debt early there' every chance Chester will develop that attitude.

Really? That's your justification? Just pay it early and hope they learn. Southend learned from the twenty grand debt that nearly put them out of business because of the public shame that John Terry was on seven times more a week.

Fucking buzzing.

Anything else you're planning to achieve this year Brian? Maybe a Managerial role in a more lucrative South American league? Or why don't you become an agent yourself?

I don't know how you find the time to be a journalist, a club chairman, and a scout. You truly are a credit to the human race Brian.

Sorry to hear that Dickie. Hope you feel better soon mate.

I wouldn't be referring to Benteke as a baseline for any club to do business deals.

Series is over now. They'e got a deal to film another season next year but they've lost a lot of talent. The older stuff is on Netflix.

I watched parts of Wrestle Kingdom 12 as I like a lot of the Ring Of Honor guys they use. The ending to the Okada / Naito match shows why they'll always struggle to make it globally. Nobody had a clue what Okada was saying as there was no subtitles.

It was terrible. As is the fact Charlotte and Bliss will not be in it. Combined with the fact Rhonda Rousey will get to bury people too. Fast forward.

I like him. He's quick, strong and good for his age. He's a long way off playing for United at the minute because nobody knows his best position as he's played in about 4 or 5 different positions as a 7/10. I think over time he will become a center midfielder but he needs to learn how to read a game and position himself better first.
