There are two sides to every story so I shall make this message about ending Cup replays as balanced as possible: the FA and Premier League should be ashamed of themselves, the greedy uncaring tossers.

Whatever happens tonight, what a brilliant World Cup it's been. Finally, it seems that we've realised loving England doesn't mean hating everyone else; and a team of young working-class men have showed more grace and humility than any Cabinet minister.

‘Legend’ is an over-used word in football but today Selhurst bids a tearful farewell to Ju-Ju-Ju-Julian Speroni. Brilliant on and off the pitch, I would suggest a gold statue but he’d only melt it down to give to charity. #CPFC
