Ebbsfleet might be a bit dodgy. They've lost at least seven players since the end of the season because they have no money to give new contracts. Their manager is asking for members to drum up some cash: Plus the 'owners' keep rejecting offers for players that would free up some cash to offer new deals, having turned down £30,000 (From Luton) then £42,000 from Morecambe for striker Michael Gash. At this rate they may end up falling down the table next year unless they get some cash

Awesome team, Flitcroft as manager with Matty Jansen upfront Will be keeping an eye out on them this year just to see how the two do I may have to make the trip from Worcester to Leigh, just to see Matt Jansen in this enviroment. He'll either be brilliant or awful.

I forgot AFC Wimbledon had made it into the BSN. Go AFC! And Worcester!

Yeah, someone mentioned that Luton were allowed to stay in the FL thread because there wasn't a Non-League thread. So I have corrected that error. I will be once again following Worcester City in the Blue Square North/South (they should go back into the North thanks to 3 more southernly sides being relegated from the Blue Square National). Hoping for a far better performance than last year (16th). Main News today is Chester offering it four supporters assiociation seats on it's Directors board following it's buy out by the Vaughan family, involving ex owner Stephen Vaughan:

right now I'd say it was to spite Man City

Messi says hi. Particulally as he had a much better year than Ronaldo this year and put in a better performance in the Champion's League final. Don't get me wrong Ronaldo is world class but I'd say Messi is better.

Andorra and co should start their matches with a four goal advantage, that'll make things more exciting playing them, introduce a handicap system

You owe me a euro Stok

Come on England one more goal! And thats five! No more please

I have Rooney to score first and England to win 5-0 at 16-1. Three goals down two to go. Only got a euro on but still!

Ireland are giving Bangledesh a real game here

Vettel on pole!

BWAHAHAHAAHAHA!!!

He wants to stay on as Russia manager until his contract ends, which I think is after the 2010 World Cup. If the job comes up again I reckon he will take it, but fair play to him for sticking with Russia, let's see how far he can take them EDIT: Beaten to it not once, not twice but thrice

Birmingham are after Kris Boyd again AND Barry Ferguson . I would have been so happy if the article had ended after linking us with Boyd.

FFS. People on the BBC forum are jumping all over Steve Bruce for being linked to the Sunderland job saying 'if you want a manager to come in for the short term and then fuck you over for another club, Bruce is your man' and such. Fuck. Off. As a Birmingham fan, was I annoyed when Steve left us for Wigan? Yes, I thought it was weird to leave one relegation battling club for another, but when he got the players he wanted (ones he wanted to have at Birmingham but the board said no, Palacios being the main one) he turned Wign into a top half club which I think is a great achievement, even putting up with Zaki being a little bitch about returning from international duty. He lost two of his best players in January when he clearly wanted to keep them. I think he's done all he can at Wigan and deserves a bigger club to take on and push for higher things (sunderland COULD be a top eight team with the right signings). He's one of the best managers in the prem at the moment and should be praised for that, not moaned about by bitter Brum fans. I think he will do well at Sunderland and wish him all the luck he deserves.

That sentance bodes REALLY well for your future as a screenwriter.

Got my second badge thank to Staravia owning bug pokemon left right and centre. About 6 and half hours in now (bought it at the start of a four day off stretch, two more days to go). Team is now: Staravia - Level 25 Luxio - Level 23 Machop - Level 21 (went from level 7 to 21 in that forest where you escort that girl who heal you up after every battle, should have stayed there longer) Grotle - Level 19 (Need to build him up to Staravia's level) Bidoof - Level 8 (Takes far too fucking long to level up, though does have both Rock Smash and Cut) Egg (From Woman in Eterna City) Biking it on the way to Hearthome City right now.

THEY'RE DOWN!!!!! *All of the U.K bar Newcastle starts celebrating the demise of the idiots who could even be bothered to put up a fight against relegation, presumably having the sme attitude as the fans 'BUT WE'RE TOO BIG TO GO DOWN! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!'

1-0 Villa.... Ahem YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!

yeah gazz, there's nothing wrong with that article. Newcastle were relegated in 88-89, then won promotion in 92-93. Also They have been in the prem since 1993-94 with is OMG 16 season ago! They should have put that in their article! Oh yeah, THEY DID. Also they mean they will be relegated to the second tier, not from the second tier

I got Platinum this morning (got rid of some games I never play, so got Pokemon and Zelda: Twilight Princess). I'm a couple of hours into it, having jut gotten my first gym badge and so far it's good. Like all pokemon games, it's fun and annoyingly addictive. My team so far consists of: Turtwig - Level 16 (Ravor Leaf made the first gym far too easy) Shinx - Level 13 (was my number one at one point, before Turtwig started owning all the rock types we came across) Starly - Level 9 (Next on my level up list) Bidoof - Level 7 (Useless) Geodude - Level 4 (caught it and the found far better ones for leveling up)

What's that noise? Why I believe it's Hammy having a small orgasm

Who'd have thought that the five cars to go out in Q1 would be both Toyota's, both BMW's and Lewis Hamilton. Toro Rosso and Force India must be loving this

Why? Because he didn't bow down kissing Fergie's feet begging forgiveness? As others have said, he congratulated the club on winning the title. He shouldn't have to do anything else.
