Almost certainly Blackburn. In fact, there's talk it may have already happened. And let's face it, that's not particularly surprising, is it?

Quite enjoyed this Simpsons reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXlYtdhr0RA"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXlYtdhr0RA

The last dance Bit of a shock. I guess she doesn't like dead poolers

Must have missed the passing earlier in the week of American motorsport legend Carroll Shelby. A winner of Le Mans in 1959 and briefly an F1 driver, he was most well-known for founding the Shelby American sports car tuning company which famously developed special versions of the AC Cobra and Ford Mustang EDIT: Ah, missed the thread

As an aside... Told you

With Vincent Tan's (disgraceful) rebranding plans for Cardiff City, this fella may be on the way out soon: Bartley the Bluebird

Speaking as a Torquay fan, hopefully we can add to that, although with our form of late and Swindon helpfully tapping up our key player in public, I very much doubt it

He has undergone "successful" emergency heart surgery

Exactly one year since ol' Beardy had his head blown apart in Abbottabad. Can't say I miss the guy, to be honest

Spain vs Yugoslavia in Euro 2000 was incredible, probably the best international match I've seen and may ever see To tie it back into current affairs, Mr Guardiola played that day. Looks as if he'll be taking some time off after this season

I don't think it's the best game I've seen either. Wigan vs West Ham last year was pretty special But in terms of the situation, the context of it, and all the sub-plots that were taking place as well (the previous matches they've played, Barca's defeat in El Clasico on the previous Saturday, the Terry sending off, Chelsea having their worst season in a decade etc), it's one of the greatest matches I've seen. This one will live long in the memory

Football, bloody hell I'm no Chelsea fan but that was incredible. One of the greatest matches I've ever seen PS I think we need Geoff Shreeves to go and have a word with the Gibbs

Wasn't Maurice "recovering" a day or two before he died?

Must be a slow news day. He first revealed this about 4 years ago Looks pretty aged for a 44 year old ex-professional football, mind. I showed it to my mother and she thought that he looked at least 55, if not 60, before I told her his actual age

Doubt the FLS will be there to watch for anyone next year. No great loss tbh Well done to Reading. One of the few clubs no one particularly hates, as far as I can tell. Good to see them up there again, and under a great manager in Brian McDermott

Just being reported that Buffett has been diagnosed with "non-life-threatening" prostate cancer. Should be on the BBC website soon

Holograms, eh? No doubt Brian May and Roger Taylor's ears pricked up when they heard about that, as they think up yet more ways of taking money from their fans

Interesting considering he notably looked awful on Celebrity Mastermind last year too

Robin. He might be in a coma but this is a cancer-related coma. And like many others here, even though I have him on my list, I don't trust al-Megrahi and friends. I think he'll hang on for a short while longer. Mugabe's a wild card

Has been denied by his agent It all depends on the type of leukaemia he has. It's only been described as "acute leukaemia". That could mean a number of different things. Could easily be a very treatable form of it

I always thought it was rather stupid of them to have Game and Gamestations shops in very close proximity. That's surely double the number of stores they actually needed. No wonder so many stores have closed - it's probably still left them covering virtually the same number of towns as before

"In hospital with a serious infection" Interestingly, he's also the father in law of Ricardo Teixeira, who resigned as the head of Brazilian football last week due to "health reasons" (or, as they are otherwise known, corruption allegations)

Sorry to inform, but actually it was 2-1 Strathspey

Former Poland striker Wlodzimierz Smolarek has died at 54. Cause of death not reported

Franny "Look at his face, just look at his face" Lee says he has "fallen ill lately"
