Ian Holloway is thinking of going to France to pick up a freebie. Well, he's thinking of going on a scouting mission to find us some new players.
As Ian puts it,
"There is a lot happening over there. I would be able to see 16 games in three days and nearly everybody involved is free. So, I may just have to go."
Lets hope he finds someone to replace striker Cherno Samba, who Ian has place on the transfer list, on a free deal. Ian was his usual self when talking to the clubs website regarding the decision:
"He's got another year with us but I can't see him progressing.
"I have got some young lads who he is in the way of. I need to make room for them. If he can't progress I would like him to go somewhere else."

Football Glory for The City of Bristol
All the play-off matches are over and the season is complete.
City Fans Celebrate
The city of Bristol have done really well this season with their two teams, both moving up a league. Bristol City were the runners up of league One and will now be playing in the Championship, along with Plymouth Argyle. Bristol Rovers won the play-offs in league two and will now be playing in league one.
Rovers Take the Cup
Unfortunately Yeovil lost to Blackpool and so will stay in League one. I was hoping they would go up so I wouldn't have so far to go to watch Plymouth Argyle but instead Yeovil will be playing Bristol Rovers.
Derby will be back up in the premiership playing the likes of Man United and Chelsea. They will receive £60m for the move from the Championship but their manager, Billy Davies, was said to be unconcerned about the money he insisted: "It's not about the money but the success of this club - we are delighted''.

Full Moon?
Not too sure what's happening tonight.
Rovers are playing Lincon in the second leg of their play off matches, it's only half time and already there have been 5 goals.
Also, I have just noticed, well over the last week or so, there are lots of teams which have yellow for their away kit. Whats going on? Are they all taking the piss out of Norwich?
And to top it all, my blog wouldn't open, so I could write this, but did give me a pretty picture to look at while I waited and waited and waited.

Oh no, wait, that's not a nice picture. it's my screen frozen
I think I forgot to say that Rovers were winning at half time 3-2

Naughty, Naughty
I know I shouldn't really, but I have. I pinched this off This Site written by an Aston Villa fan.

Play Off Time = Excitement
This weekend was the start of the play off matches, with Southampton taking on Derby on Saturday and Wolves playing WBA on Sunday in the Championship league for a place in the Premiership next season.
Who will be kicking a ball like this next season?
Southampton played a good game but were beaten by Derby 2-1. After going in front in the 7th minute, I was hoping that would be the first of many for Southampton but Derby managed to equalise in the 36th minute and a penalty, awarded for Pele's rash shirt tug on Pearson, saw Howard place the second of his two goals past Bialkowski, the Southampton keeper. The return match is on Tuesday, 15 May 2007 with kick off at 19.45. I know who I'll be shouting for.
Saints' Andrew Surman scores after six minutes
Wolves lost to WBA 2-3. the teams will play again on Wednesday, 16 May 2007, kick off 19.45
The league one play off matches were: Yeovil 0-2 Nott'm Forest which was played on Saturday and Oldham 1-2 Blacpool played on Sunday
Richard Walker scores for Rovers
League two saw Bristol Rovers 2-1 Lincon City on Saturday with Shrewsbury v Milton Keynes Dons tomorrow (Monday)
