Let's take Villa and Carlisle and call it a draw.

I think a huge part of this is what a surprisingly superb fit he's been for that club at that moment. Doug King recognising that drive in a manager out of work was some win.

This interview on the pitch is liquid Lampard.

It's been a real privilege to be close to some of this. By far the best thing about changing career. Looking forward to going to the next game, it's been great to see it.

Promotion secured for Coventry City. Brilliant season and I'm so chuffed for everyone at the club and my friends in that away end. Go and get the trophy.

It's the same day as the J.League's birthday, which is rather lovely.

Moriyasu isn't required to submit his final 26-man squad until 30th May.

Ready for the World Cup? Me neither.

But Japan's head coach, Hajime Moriyasu, has pretty much picked his squad and it will be announced a month from today.

It's basically here.

Jed Steer Interview: Ex-Villa goalkeeper on retiring with 'no regrets' Jed Steer discusses the nature of retirement from pro football

Always good to chat to Aston Villa hero and wonderful man Jed Steer, this time about retiring the right way and at the right time.

Everton were surprised by failed Michael Keane appeal – does football need to look more closely at violent conduct? A fiery Premier League midweek put red cards and suspensions in the spotlight. Are the rules too lenient on some offences and too harsh on others?

Red card for a hair pull, is it?

I think we both know you're the real winner there.

every goal should happen in the middle of a gary neville sentence imo

J1 100 Year Vision League West division table

Here's the West division table after Week 10.

Three of Kyoto Sanga's five goals against Fagiano Okayama were scored in injury time at the end of either half.

It was 1-1 as the clock ticked past 45 minutes and 3-1 by the break. Kyoto scored a third of their total goals tally in one match.

Sanfrecce Hiroshima took just a couple of minutes to equalise after going behind at home against Shimizu S-Pulse, restoring parity through Kosuke Kinoshita's tap-in.

They were perfect from the penalty spot to bag the bonus point and climb to third.

The Osaka derby wasn't much of a spectacle. Cerezo scored the only goal, defeating Gamba courtesy of Thiago's one-on-one finish late in the first half and a penalty save in the second.

Avispa Fukuoka picked up all three points thanks to a 1-0 win over V-Varen Nagasaki.

In the West, Vissel Kobe are miles clear in terms of both points and goals scored.

They had to come from behind to win 3-2 against Nagoya Grampus and Yoshinori Muto scored the crucial goal with a header with ten minutes left.

J1 100 Year Vision League East division table

Tokyo Verdy rode the penalty train to two points against Urawa Red Diamonds. Itsuki Someno equalised from the spot in normal time before Verdy won a shoot-out littered with misses.

Here's the East division table as it stands.

Bottom club JEF United grabbed a point against fellow promoted side Mito HollyHock but lost 3-2 on penalties after a fantastic goal apiece.

Six of Mito's ten matches have ended in shoot-outs. JEF United have lost all three of theirs.

There was also a fifth outright win for Machida Zelvia. They beat Kashiwa Reysol 1-0 thanks to a poacher's goal from Na Sang-ho 15 minutes from time.
