  1. Ref Watch ........ York away

    The man in charge of tomorrow's must win fixture is Graham Salisbury from Preston. One of the oldest and most experienced officials, he is in his fifties and in his 12th season on the list. Not quite as old as Nigel Miller. He has enjoyed a reputation as a steady journeyman official who was...

  3. Ref Watch .......... Bristol Rovers H

    Today's referee is, in theory, the best referee outside the SG. It is 6th year referee, Roger East from Salisbury. He has been given 5 Premiership matches this season, albeit fairly low key ones. He is a familiar and distinctive figure to most of us as he did both the televised game at...

    Poker player Ron will have to show his hand, if as is hoped the Southend-on-Sea Developement Committee agree with the amended staged payments required. He will then have to build or be shown as a busted flush. This is more important, long term, then any Wembley trip. I am hopeful as...

    The melodrama on these boards

    if you could pick any manager-

    And they don't have to be football related' For example I would pick ricky gervais but in character as David brent.Great motivator and a good dance for Blues christmas party. As assistant I would have Karl Pilkington to keep players feet on the ground.

    Will Wembley help improve attendances

Also do you think whether we win will also affect this? I...
