"Different priorities, Spurs are hoping to get closer to Manchester United, Liverpool have the chance to close the gap on Chelsea." Erm, ahem.

How did Sky put it again? You could have had two keepers and a stepladder and still not have saved that.

EveningChron Breaking: Sunderland fan Peter Copeland, 29, admits posting racist abuse on Twitter to Newcastle United supporter. Story to follow. #nufc

He is right footed, isn't he? That's what PES has him down as but fucking hell, I can barely use my left for standing on never mind something like that.

RVP as captain. Eat it.

Obviously didn't update my phone calendar properly and until yesterday afternoon I still thought this match was today #rubbishfan

Trying to talk about the Suarez thing to scousers is genuinely like when you talk to people in a cult. Suarez said the only time he used the word 'negro' is when saying "Why, black?" in that "matey" manner. Evra said he said "Because you are black" in response to asking why he was kicked. Damien Comolli, Liverpool's DoF, said that Suarez told him he had said "Because you are black". Dirk Kuyt testified that Suarez has told him in Dutch he'd said "Because you are black", which Suarez says must have been another 'lost in translation' thing. Dalglish told the referee that Mr Suarez responded with “you are black” having first been taunted with ‘you are South American’, contradicting Suarez saying he only ever said "Why, black?". Liverpool's evidence is what changed it from being one man's word against another. But all you get is conspiracy theories about the date of the hearing being deliberately chosen to disadvantage Liverpool.

K Kevin Keegan left the toon in a heli-copta He came back with Terry Mac to save us from disaster. Imortalised by Harry Palmer alongside such wonderful wordsmitthery as "I want to be by that toaster, oh when the beans come out the tin" and "Geordie boys we are here, slap your lass with a Christmas tree" What happened to him anyway? Last I heard he got busted for claming dole while doing paid appearances in front of 30,000 locals. Guess the sunglasses didn't do the trick...

Even if the form since O'Niell took over continues, with us averaging 1.63 points per game and them 2.11,it would take them about 20 games to catch us and there's, what, 15 left?

If, at the end of the season, they try to pull "NETD since St Martin took over" remind them that means we're NETDs since Shearer took over in our relegation season because we both got four points over those last 8 games but we have a goal difference of -6 to their -12. If their time under Bruce doesn't count, neither does ours under Kinnear.

Cracking goal like, must have been great for the fans to have so much room to celebrate it, they could have done the worm all the way along the row.

Fifth in the league after an undeserved win against Blackburn. Fuck the police.

Fuck me, that looked in. Good job these lot are turboshit because any team with half a clue would have torn us a new one by now.

GET IN KRUL!

At least 73 dead now

50 killed after pitch invasion in Egypt http://english.ahram.org.eg/NewsContent/6/51/33468/Sports/Egyptian-Football/BREAKING-At-least--fans-die-in-football-clashes-in.aspx

Extra time, penalties and then multiball.

Scouser on Facebook pissed off because they've "Not even signed a ball-boy" and sarcastically saying that they're going to win the World Cup. They've spent over £100m in the last two windows and over the last five years only Man City have spent more on players, gross. How the fuck do they need more players? Oh, that's right, because they got a £50m windfall and gave it to a scottish drunk who spent most of it on Andy Carroll and didn't even have enough left over to cover the fee of Downing or Henderson.

Why the fuck did I swap Bosingwa with Cahill?

Wigan bid said to be £2.5m, according to SSN

SSN guy - "Manchester City will be happy because of the wages ratio, Sunderland are making a big, big contribution to Bridge's wages"

Surely after his success with Villa he should have then made the step up from Villa rather than a step down to a smaller club? He won't ever get the job at Man U/Chelsea/Arsenal/Spurs/City because of his faults that you ignore. You need a bit more than master motivation skills and big target men to manage Man United. I can't account for his decision to join Sunderland, maybe it was because he's a lifelong fan which is fair enough. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he's on the FA's contingency list to replace Fabio is Redknapp is found guilty. Would a northern irish catholic and former Celtic manager really manage England? Or am I displaying my own ignorance here

The fact it's the day before deadline day and the names I've seen on the ticker are Kevin Davies, Billy Sharp and Keith Andrews sums up the window. Let's hope it stays like this. Presume we're still on for being the biggest spenders?
