Me thinks so, there was only so long they could saty up there.

They have a wonderful manager in moyes, who gets them to play to there strengths, but there first team only consists of 19 players. Shocking really.
I still think they will be top 6 though.

Why was the commentator reffering to Andy Cole as 'Andrew' Cole? Have I missed a trick this season??

Nah, he decided that he wanted to be known as "Andrew" even when he was playing for Manchester United.

That's one of the reasons that we got rid of him. Well, that and the fact that he is crap and can't score goals

The commentator persistently using his first name all the time was very annoying though.

Anyway, in the long running Bramble argument, I claim a point. Man of the match yesterday and well deserved, the main thing standing between them and a hatful in the second half. He does so much more work than the other centre-back. Let's hope him and Boumsong turn out to be a top partnership.

Not sure how Souness is going to manage 4-5-1 when Shearer and Kluivert are both back but there you go.

Is he gonna write a novel or something?! Maybe join the Royal Shakespear Company.

He scored a sweet goal yesterday - 7 league goals for the season isn't it. Not too dusty.

Everton have gotten Beattie for Â£6m

If he can regain his form I think he'll be great for them.

Scenarios

Now we know that Goal in One will reach 37 points with a goal difference of +38, what will happen? Roma has currently a goal difference of +36, but if it only scores twice in the next two games, it will have scored less goals.

This means that Roma will have to win twice, and one of these wins has to be with a difference of 2 or more goals. To remain on a promotion spot, Roma has to win 1 of its two remaining games. Difficult tasks, but the boys of coach Wurzinger will do their best.

We really do look pretty poor, although there are about six first-teamers out. I quite like the look of young N'Zogbia, but some of the more senior players really should be stepping up in this game and getting us the win, and it's just not happening.

So Jamie 'permanently crocked' Redknapp has left Spurs to join his dad.

Ah, how nice!

And that, folks, is why people hate Man Utd.

The second Carroll dropped that ball, I was jumping up and down screaming that it was a goal. If I could see that in that instant, the officials surely must have. But no, not at Old trafford, no way. If that had happened to any other team at any other ground, the goal would have been given. Can't have it happen to Man Utd though, can we?

The linesman, at the very least, should never officiate in the top division again. That was an utterly disgusting decision and I'm still furious about it.

Still, at least Chelsea extended their lead
