Had a job interview for a promotion in to a managerial role today. It's as a secondment for nearly a year so pretty much no-lose situation - if I get it, I use that time to learn the role whilst doing it, and the plan is to make it permanent if it's right for me and if they're happy. If it doesn't become permanent, I still would have learnt a lot at that level and will use that in future for any other opportunities that come up, and I also have the safety net of going back to what I do now which I still really enjoy.

Good to hear from you @Eco, and congrats on the new job!

Does it document Zaha's wish to leave every summer?

Get your donations ready mate.

@Danny would you say you have enough leaders in your team? Often think this is key to survival for a promoted team - sometimes clubs buy players to fit the system but when it gets to the tough points of the season where you really have to grind a result out, they're missing that leadership or basically someone to give other players a kick up the arse when they're not giving enough; or someone to just get you over the line in a game or as part of the whole season. Fulham showed they lacked it a lot this season. Do you also think you'd be able to keep Toney now that you have got promoted?

I'm blaming you if we don't re-open on 21st June as planned.

I think it's absolutely pathetic how she's been treated, to be honest. The way she's been hounded by some parts of the media (the precise reason she's not facing them anyway) is ridiculous. If someone is claiming their mental health is suffering, you don't punish them or slap them with a fine ffs. You help and support them. The fact that all 4 Grand Slam organisations have said she faces the fine for not obliging with her duties is fucking stupid, too. What about their duties to protect their players? They've actually quoted 'fairness' in their reason to fine her, too, which is laughable. I fully back her for her decision. If she couldn't commit to the interviews/press conferences due to physical injury then that would be fine. Protecting her own mental health is still a valid reason for not doing it as well.

I have now! The iridescent ones are spectacular. They all are, really, but those more so.

Done. Now that Palace twat can stop fucking moaning

Holy shit.

Weirdos.

You are weird.

Canos, Mbuemo, Jansson, Marcondes to name a few I reckon.

@Danny Enjoy the ride, mate!

5 into 2 doesn't go! Dag & Red vs Wrexham FC Halifax vs Chesterfield Solihull Moors vs Eastleigh Bromley vs Notts County

Oh Pizza Hut.

Makes sense as to why we found @MUFC and @Batard's IP addresses near Venice then.

Definitely a sign of their financial situation. They do have a few highly-rated younger players coming through as well, so this experience in the side may not be the worst thing in the world. Aguero is only 32 and I think is a decent fit, even if for a season or two.

This is sad to hear of
