Mepham sent off for Sunderland , the Souttar stupidly sent off for Sheff Utd . Souttar will miss the game against us next week

Both their first choice CBs out suspended then.

I think it's fair to say QR Codes and scanners are the bane of many a life. Taken from a PNE football forum earlier this morning. 'Edited' out of consideration for our forum rules  ;D :

'Don’t suppose our esteemed Fat Controller has deigned to explain what the hell is going on with the new turnstile scanners ? Plumbed new depths of chaos today . Queued up to turnstile only to be told they couldn’t read qr codes on phones so then had to queue again for a paper ticket then queue a third time to actually get in.

Well run club my 'elbow'. Just another example of how Ridsdale has run everything in a cheap and nasty way. A well done to the people in the ticket office for working in ridiculous circumstances and to the fans for not venting their frustration at the staff. And a big 'fluff' off to Ridsdale for presiding over such 'lumpy brown' service'.
It doesn't matter how many resources you have.
If you don't know how to use them, they will never be enough.

Hull after Ruben Selles from Reading. He is the one I would have earmarked if the board had decided to remove CC which, to be clear, I do not want.

He has done a fantastic job with Reading in difficult circumstances.

Athletic saying he's now been granted permission to speak to Hull. Good manager.

His star is certainly on the rise. Deserves an opportunity at a higher level certainly

Sounds like he's certainly someone who wants to loyally stay with his employer until the end of the season.

A significant gap has opened up between the top 4 and the rest now. These 4 are the best sides in the division I think. I'm expecting a loss tomorrow  :(

Yes. From being top, we are now adrift by 10 points and 13 goals difference. Leeds have scored 33 and we have scored 19. We have a mountain to climb.

And unfortunately a draw against the blades in isolation would be decent for any in this league,but we have now pressure on ourselves due to many of the wasted opportunities to get 3 points when we turned it in to 1.
Watford are above us with GD +2 ,which is really poor for the play off places .
If youre going to get told off, get told off for doing something not for doing nothing..

Few expected Neil Harris to be leaving Millwall. Announcement expected. Clearly frustrated with the reaction to Saturday’s loss to Coventry but still comes as a major shock #millwall

I'm not so sure, the little bits and pieces I've read suggest it is his decision to leave.

Boro equalise at Leeds making it 1-1 in the 53rd minute. Not a bad game this.

Any resident bookies taking bets on whether we'll read cries of 'why didn't we go down the road and get him?' when Millwall either bomb past us into the playoffs on the final day of the season or beat us in them?

In true Bet 365 fashion I'll take any part of £1 at 25/1 as Millwall are 9/4 for the play-off and I can't even find a price for Mat Slater in the next manager market. I'd pay out if they hired Slater and made the play-offs because in those circumstances those armed with 20:20 hindsight would be out in force

Watching Luton V Derby. Not too much quality on show so far. A little frenetic. Considering Luton were Premier League last season they don’t look that good and neither do Derby.
