A tough match - I'm glad we held on for a draw.

Damned commentator just HAD to say something - late in the second half - about the Blades 16 game unbeaten streak . . .

The ref was pants for most of the match, but the call that led to the win for the Dons was probably sound.  Sigh.  At least I got to listen to Wednesday's manager admitting that his squad just may not be capable of doing what it takes to win (not lazy - just not capable.  Astonishing admission, frankly).

Drat.  A win would have slid us back into first.  Ah well, at least it wasn't a loss!

Brentford 2-0 Sheff Utd

Famous last words from last week . . . but Brentford deserved the win.  Their keeper was superb.

Shaun Miller's the hero of this one - two in the last seconds of regular time.  Port Vale's keeper was really solid - tough match!

Glad to be out of this one.  We need to concentrate promotion.

I hate people.

Well, given that the author of that piece invented a fair portion of what happened on the night in question (lured her back to a room?) I somewhat doubt their veracity on her reasons for leaving.

I'm sure she has taken abuse for this - but I'm also sure that the Daily Star has used a good bit of creative license (which they actually do not have leave to do, being a "newspaper") in their presentation of the situation.

Not saying it does - just saying that "the behaviour" may be over-stated by the rag, "quoting" a friend of the victim.

This is a good example of two wrongs not making a right.
