Damn, AFC Fylde just lost in the Conference North play off final

2-1 AET against North Ferriby United. Next season it will have to be!

Hoping for a minor miracle today, Granada to beat Barca and Real Madrid to win their game and the title!

SSN reporting Joey Barton is at Rangers ground today ahead of a move there. Guess Sean Dyche told him no chance of getting into Burnley's Prem League squad?!

Derby choking come the season end, again. Thought this was a Hull home game at first, their fans were louder and their play is better. Two goals up at half time in the first leg, though the second one was a very fortunate deflection off Shackell. Derby need to score in this second half to stand any chance of progressing to the final, don't see them getting 3 without reply at the KC Stadium.

Newcastle could well do with looking at some of the Derby squad as potential additions, Ince and Hughes maybe amongst others?

Lacazettes scored 21 league goals and your asking if he's actually any good, how else are you meant to judge strikers, on how well they tie their laces?

(Waits for the inevitable "Its only Ligue 1" response)

If you'd have said the same about Gignac then you'd probably have a case but Lacazette should absolutely be in that squad

Yeah, but it's only Ligue 1

I can't tell if the Forestieri offside touched Hooper to justify it or not, but the tripe whammy for Brighton of losing 2 of their best players and then conceded still fucks them sideways.

Yeah, four injuries in a play off semi final is FM levels of brutal. Don't fancy them to turn the 2 goal deficit around at their place now

Just delete 'brazil_kits' and 'Licensing2' files from data\db\1630\dbc\permanent folder, all names will appear correctly then.

There's only two ways it can go with the French team, they'll either win the damn thing or not a single game!

Think your being a bit harsh on the kits, we've seen much, much worse over the last couple of years.

Think the United kit looks okay to be honest and I like the Liverpool third team kit.

I just don't get the fad for the two slightly different shades of the same colour that is everywhere.

By King Luis | On 12 May 2016 - 18:06 PM BST

Our third is a damn sight better than that static crap from Chelsea

Okay, just!

So a few teams have already revealed their kits for next season, not keen on some personally. The new Chelsea home kit doesn't appeal:

The little Chelsea lions all over the shirt put me off. As does the cringey posing! Their away kit is worse though:

https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KeiTgYownJ8/VzNG2jVgikI/AAAAAAAA6jY/0s4CA8MBG-4UBY7YWaQ8xMLb3WKhGDZcwCLcB/s1600/chelsea-16-17-away-kit%2B%25282%2529.jpg

Don't understand the need for two types of blue on it in stripes, they reverse half way down the shirt too. Bizarre.

Again with two shades of the same colour, but now half and half. Still does not work.

Liverpool arguably have the worst of the bunch so far, their third kit seems to be a "toxic" green:

What do you think of your teams kits for next season and have you found any to challenge these horrible efforts?

I hope Frank De Boer does get the job at Everton, would like to see what he could do there. Clearly wants the job too as him and his brother keep saying!

Elsewhere in Europe, ex-Liverpool player Sami Hyypia has been sacked from his management job at FC Zurich. He's not got the best managerial record!

Martinez
Sanches-Flores
Pulis
LVG

All in the next 2 weeks, all in that order.

Looking a good shout for now, Martinez has just been sacked according to SSN!

Away to find out what baby number 2's gender is this lunch time (hopefully) during the 20 week scan.

Not hoping for one over the other, both bring their own problems!

Well, lower down the leagues, Nigel Adkins has just been sacked as manager of Sheff Utd.

They just confirmed it on SSN but no one has finished typing an article for me to link too yet!

As we come to the summer months (allegedly) and schools are planning their sports days, football prepares for its own sack race.

Who will be "winning" it next:
Le Voyeur - Arsene Wenger?
Another Man United manager - LVG?
Martinez at Everton?
Flores at Watford?
Pulis at West Brom?
Alex Neil at Norwich?

Who do you think will get the chop first and who will replace them?

Personally, I hope it's my favourite bus driver in Tony Pulis. Just doesn't fit when I think of WBA and I know a few fans think the same. No idea as to replacement!

Shame you won't be visiting us this time in the Championship, it was fun last time.

Though we didn't enjoy the away trip until we joined you in the Prem!

The Championship is gonna be a hell of a division next season, though it usually is pretty good!

True!

Blackpool are a club run by a family of greedy, vile sub-humans. I'm past caring about our results on a heartfelt level, but I have followed the club for too long to not follow events at it. One day I might go back to supporting them properly, when the scum are gone, but until then I watch on with apathy. Poke fun all you like, but it's like kicking someone in their prosthetic limb.
