No surprise. Lyons President is a hard man to deal with.

I have doubts. But, I saw Chelsea win, and they were lucky...it is not always the best team that wins, you need some luck (or in Chelsea's case, everyone's else s luck too )

It worked, well that and the fact they all bottled it against us in the knock out rounds

Arsenal not signing Draxler. Was interest but AW unwilling to meet #Schalke asking price. Only #afc deal may be a loan arrival #bbcfootball

Probably rightfully. The £35-£40 million price was insane. That's Ozil money! Or Mata! Not someone who may not make it yet. Plus if there is one thing we don't need it's more midfielders.

If Draxler turns it on at the world cup someone will cough up

No missed that, went with a mate who is actually a season ticket holder at Turf Moor to watch Rochdale ( my third team) take on Wednesday in the FA Cup.

Really good game, Rochdale marginally the better side but got undone from two corners. If they can carry that form through the rest of the season then they should hopefully get automatic promotion.

I did hear that at around fifty people walked out of Boundary Park after 30 minutes.
