I tweeted Leon the other day and he replied, he said that he had no intention of retiring at the end of this season. Also he said that he dislikes these forums because people make up s*** about him or something along those lines.

I suspect in a moment I am going to depress myself with BBC's predictor.

My score prediction has us 2 points above the drop at the end of the season, Burton and Stockport to go down, Barnet to escape relegation after a win at mid-table Port Vale.

I agree, its a big game. Would love to see Harrad get a goal but primarily I would like a clean sheet. The defence hasn't been good enough this season.

Buckle's interview after the game, he seems a bit disappointed, i was not there but everyone seems to think that the cobblers deserved at least a point except a few pissed of Torquay supporters and their manager.

I wonder if this means Herby is twatting off..

I hope so, he's s***. He's shown nothing, maybe that run at anfield, but he has never replicated that again.

His hat-trick at home to Hereford was great but after he was taken off the whole team seemed to stop playing. Still a good player and would love to see him next season too.

Purcell deserves the chance to impress, i'd imagine that he would be fit enough to play a part pre-season. Hopefully with McKay, Harrad and Bauza, possibly McKenzie if he stays fit and this new player. We could have a decent front line next year so players like Holt won't have to play out of position all the time.

My first game was a 3-0 loss at home to Mansfield in 2003 :/ not a great result, but still go to as many games as possible

That Jerome goal was fantastic, and Johno has been in great scoring form recently and he generally scored decent goals too. Lincoln and away at Southend were both great strikes.

Goodbye to a true great.

In January, a few championship clubs expressed an interest. I think Notts Forest and Reading were the main two.

He may be quick, but he's lazy too. His decision making as woeful as well.

Ok Adam, Let me put it like this. Gordon Strachan has managed Celtic, Southampton and Coventry when both were in the Premiership. He was crap at Middlesborough but there is more chance of me sleeping with Kate Middleton on her wedding night than him coming here  

Fair point. I know he wouldn't come. Someone said they saw him at a petrol station in sixfields or something

I never said he would come to us, just that it would be amazing to have him whilst also stating that I admired him. Oh and the thread title contains 'Speculation'.

Someone mentioned seeing Gordon Strachan, i've always admired him as a manager. Didn't do great at Middlesbrough
though. At a lower level he could be inspirational  

Still... most of us will agree that we would prefer a more experienced manager to be appointed. I just hope whoever comes in will do a decent job. A mid-table finish will be acceptable then re-build in the summer and push for promotion next year.

I was just throwing a name in, he's unemployed currently.

Roy Keane? Don't know if his name has been mentioned yet? Unrealistic though.

Totally agree, the lad looked very good pre-season but he has seem to of disappeared!

He's recently been on international duty with Cyprus u19, he looked great at Reading too, he's a prospect. And ive got him as a friend on facebook
