You are all too precious. If he was the best man for the job last time, then appoint him. There's not much loyalty in football anywhere.

My son supports Brighton almost as much as I do, although he rarely gets there. Must have been a couple of dozen times since the early 1990s plus many more away games. Guiltily, I keep saying he should follow Coventry City (where he was born) but to no avail. There aren't many of us up this way.

If you need a manger, it must be for a second coming. (Potter ??)

Well. unlike many on here, I for one would be for him returning. Obviously he fitted the profile required last time round. I don't consider what happened at Chelsea reflected too much on him (getting sacked, I mean) and, let's face it, all managers are mercenary opportunists at the end of the...

Top flight stadia ?? What about the flare on Sunday ?

Cheltenham(a) in 2008. We led 1-0 until Gillespie scored twice in stoppage time.

Slightly dfferent, but Gordon Smith at Wembley is up there for me - although I came away pleased we had given such a good performance.

No. They'd put me off doing the Times Crossword.

One slip up. Otherwise had a solid game.

I seem to remember the Darlo game was on a Monday night. Waited apprehensively all day before catching the bus to the match. Electric atmosphere. 31000 for a Div 4 match was unheard of. The first goal was our hundredth for the season, the majority scored at home. I saw all but 5 of them - missed...

Yes. He mentioned injuries and the owner quite a bit.

We didn't play Palace that season - they'd been relegated the season before.
