We must assume the week starts on a Monday and so we still have Saturday and Sunday for the announcements. If Russell Martin thinks it is exciting, it sounds like the structure is known but the individuals are not yet signed up.

Buy cheap, buy twice.

His heart hasn''t been in it this season and he has lacked the strength and decisiveness he showed in the Premier League. Shipping him back to Basel or another PL club would be good business for us, though he is unlikely to be a first choice PL centre back unless one of the teams going up want him. He could be a Hughton type player I guess.

Red Balls Norwich.

I can''t even feel strongly enough about his music to despise him. It''s just meh. Beige wallpaper. Magnolia. Tapioca. Good luck to him and I am sure he is a lovely and humble young man, but I will stick with Ray Davies as a singer songwriter of choice.

Maybe he''s taking his Jedi training badges. It would explain why he doesn''t want the gig here.

Arsenal to win away at West Bromwich. Norwich bet: pinto to score Good luck my lovelies.

Yep. Hate festivals. All those people, having a good time. Meh.

Yes, if the rest of this season goes entirely against all of the season that has gone so far in terms of solidity, fight , resilience and teamwork, we could do it. I have seen Rocky II and Rocky III, and to a lesser extent Rocky IV.

We are still scouring Europe. Patience.

Prefer Ken Clarke. He''d try to get us back into Europe.

Would prefer Nigel from Eastenders, with Nigel Tufnel and Nigel Mansell as coaches.

I wonder if a manager has ever been booed when walking out for his first home game. Stuart Pearce would be that manager. This appointment would make Glenn Roeder look like Antonio Conte.

Rather have Kenny Loggins.

The board are accountable, but they can apologise without the risk of being fired. That''s the nice thing about being in charge.

Arithmetically we can still finish second

Has made many a Saturday satisfying for me. I''m in..

That was Lady Gaga? She''d do.

So tired, tired of waiting....

Truly awful and entirely unnecessary. Adds no value, no new perspective, no insight or critical analysis. I blame the Internet for letting stupid people think their opinions somehow matter.

Would prefer Billy Idol.

Gary Neville! GARY NEVILLE! Please stop, you are killing me.

The comma is a useful device. I will introduce you.

True Grit, I like the cut of your jib. Yes McClaren has failed on occasion but show me a manager who has not. And as you learn more from failure than from victory, he seems a perfect fit. He could also get the best from our Dutch players. I would like him to have a crack at getting the most from Ricky Van.

Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock says he did not consider Wigan Athletic to be a "threat" once they appointed Warren Joyce as manager in November. Former Manchester United Under-21 boss Joyce was sacked on Monday after only four months in charge of the Latics. Warnock''s side are currently 13th in the Championship but were a point above the drop zone, and Wigan, in 21st when Joyce took charge. "No disrespect but when Wigan appointed him, I was delighted," Warnock said. He added to BBC Radio Wales Sport: "I didn''t think they were going to be a threat to us. "I like Warren but you can''t just put someone into the Championship who''s never been there - it''s nothing like youth football." Warnock recently signed a contract extension to stay as Bluebirds'' manager until the end of 2017-18, but is confident about his position because of a lack of managerial talent elsewhere. "I''m in a unique situation for a manager because I''m not bothered if I get the sack - they can sack me tomorrow if they want," he said. "If I want another job, I can get another job. That''s not being conceited, I just don''t see many good managers around. "There used to be hundreds, you could name them all but the Championship is not like any other league."
