Enjoyable afternoon yesterday in the sunshine at Carshalton - like the old CCL days as the team you would like to win did so 6-0. Great to chat with TB and his hopes for next season and with Jamie Stuart. Just a shame that it all turned sour after the final whistle with a Margate player being sent off for violent conduct.

Don't envy you all on the long drive tomorrow, traffic will be tasty

Swin Don - I'd do the drive today given the weather but I think my three passengers might have something to say about it!

Swin Don - that's a bit late for me, I will be leaving Bodmin just after 10am, will hopefully see you there though.

I had that Charlie Sheringham in the back of my cab once, his dad was a famous footballer in his day

I'll write the cheque myself

CW - we pay them £500 too?

Salisbury are welcome to him, £500 should be enough

Happy Easter all.

PB from Swindon to St Austell, Easter Sunday definitely the day to travel. Bit chilly.

FM update - as I know you enjoy it - Charlie Sheringham is now on 5 goals in 7 matches for me and he injured two Northampton players by putting himself about.

Oh, and the irony of it being Poyet beating Mourinho, plus a Liverpool player that scored the winning goal - sweet!!

I take both Easter and Christmas in the vein of the May and August bank holidays. A secular holiday and a celebration of having time off work. I have had four days off work so it really is a happy Easter.

Great weekend so far - we didn't lose, Ardley is still King, the scum lost and can't make the playoffs any longer, and then Moronio loses and shows that he has no plans to become a real person. I don't think I've ever seen any manager with less humility or grace - they all have their moments, but his poor effort at disguised sarcasm was laughable. Did I hear correctly that Chelski hadn't had a penalty awarded against them all season until yesterday? If that's true, it's amazing, and it's worth asking whether that's because referees are a little scared of the reaction from Moronio if they do award one. He comes across as intimidating and a bully, but the worst thing about him is how he won't accept responsibility for anything that goes wrong. Sunderland played well from the front to the back, and their keeper was great - Chelsea couldn't keep their discipline, and got away with a clear red card offence that wasn't mentioned by the Moronmanager. As for not shaking hands with other managers, and saying he had to call his wife, it shows he is a coward and a liar (both typical traits of bullies).

OI-of course only NA's opinion matters

Kyle - why, yes. Very "happy" thank you. And you? Accommodation booked for three days in and around Skipton and Harrogate with a detour on Saturday for the Accrington game.

If all the stars aligned they might just about balance out Akinfenwa's gravitational pull. Much rather a Smith or Appiah on loan.

Ah sorry, I must admit I don't always read Oxford's posts in full. I can't take anybody seriously who pays attention to that rumours site.

Chelsea, I believe have a squad approaching 65 in number and over 30 are out on permanent loan. That seems to be wrong to me. Suspect Man City might have similar numbers.

SB- 'Happy Easter' ?

Slow Train - read the OD post of 09.37 - you may then understand.

For Surrey Bob - I am not 'attached' to either Kedwell or Appiah, or any of our players for that matter. Like others I could see it happening and the fact we are freeing up the last of the TB wage agreements means the deals would now be economically viable.

Kyle - if Peter Taylor is like Martin Allen and prefers to offer only one year deals to those sort of players, and we can offer two years, then it's quite possible on that score.

It also irks me that Martinez has been criticised in some corners for his loan dealings this season when Chelsea have Torres, Ba, Etoo and Lukaku on their books and Jose is moaning about not having a decent striker and is looking to spend £50 million on Diego Costa in the summer. And you just know that Lukaku will be priced out of Everton's range despite them actually wanting to play him and incorporate them into their side.

True, but that's why we would need to erm 'bold' with the contract length imo
