I wanna see Graham Alexander go real blonde. Cheers."

1223: But wait! This game isn't quite dead... Burnley will be tip-toeing about avoiding any trouble as they target an improbable Europa League place next season. To put it simply: England are set to win one of the qualification places on offer to those countries who finish in the top three of Uefa's Fair Play rankings. That place will go to the best-placed team in the Premier League's Fair Play League who haven't already qualified for Europe. At the moment, that's Fulham - but if the Cottagers win the Europa League, next in is Burnley. With me?
1219: Every player would have to wear a different hat, just to clarify. Anyway, if you've got any other proposals for these dead rubbers, I'd welcome them. Let's be honest, I've got a couple of hours free...
1215: It's about time the Premier League started ensuring there are no dead games at the end of the season. For example, I propose that the losers of Birmingham-Burnley should be made to wear hats in their next game.
