Well club records seem to be falling every game at the minute, 9 straight wins and Sako & Dicko forging a partnership that we haven't seen since Bully's days! That Branco defender guy was a right knob 'ed for Swindon though.

Whoever comes 6th in League one will go up, sods law.

Any chance of Judas Clarke breaking his leg before the game at our poxy shed?

I am reluctant to advocate government interference in sport, but couldn't company law prevent ownership by such people?

He'll score then break his toe kicking a billboard so don't worry too much.

Pointless signing for the dingles but one which has left us in big trouble. Struggling to stay in the third tier whilst Wolves and fecking Leicester romp to the title has me more pissed off than Alan Pardew's forehead.

Could be worse, you could keep loaning Leon Best until he scores a goal. Reminds of Jay Slothroyd as a footballer.

Apparently we asked Blackburn to loan us their best striker. We meant Jordan Rhodes, we got Leon Best.

You seem to forget Coventry was where he first made his name. Sorry about that.

Perfectly acceptable according to Championship referees. Sort it out FA, teams are suffering each week due to this.

Bloody hell - Deeney should have at least been booked for that. The penalty incident is a massive misnomer mind, unless the Donny keeper was up front for no apparent reason.

Wait, I'm confused. What was the actual result of that incident?

And are you arguing that you should have had a penalty or that Deeney should have been penalised? You're a Watford fan, right?

Because I'm with Stiff Little Fingers. That's a horrible challenge from Deeney. Dived in when he was never going to get near it.

Deeney shouldn't have gone in but does the ball. Its the keeper rugby tackling Deeney that should probably make it a penalty. Quality of video probably doesn't do justice as even the club Twitter went berserk at the decision.

Really? Doesn't look like he gets the ball at all. No change in speed or direction of the ball, which suggests nothing touched it.

And it's hardly a rugby tackle. Deeney was between the keeper's legs and then tried to get up. Obviously the keeper's going to fall over (what with him being tangled up) and it's purely an accident Deeney went over too. One of those "6 of one, half a dozen of the other" incidents, in my opinion.

It is a poor camera angle though. Might be a different case if I saw it side on.

Massive game for Brentford too. I'm going to be a mess between 12.15pm and 2pm today.

Hoping Bolton can keep hunting down Blackburn with a win today. Only realistic goal for the rest of the season is to finish above them.

Yeah, I'm quite sure the camera angle doesn't do it justice. Dickov himself said his keeper should have been sent off as well as most the Donny fans.
