Big Geordie

Well, am surprised she is back. She must be desperate for his cash.

Not on Twitter - what's being sang - the Johnson song?

I just wonder (making a massive assumption), if he's tried to bag himself this young lass who could be from a more working class background lets say, with a view to trying to groom her and keep her gob shut in the process? I guess we may get an idea at the end of the trial - if true though - proper predatory behaviour.

I shouldn't laugh, but!

No live updates today, due to 4 witnesses being heard. Updates can be given, during breaks in proceedings. Blog reporting that the victim is giving evidence now.

Cheers SB

Anyone got a link to the live blog, please?

'9' for me as it stands.

Don't believe that. Remember, football is a simple game made complicated by fools like McClaren.

Bar Keegan who would never come back, whilst Ashley is in charge. I suggested it last night among my mates on FB, and was laughed at.

Ashley will panic at some point, but as with the appointment of Shearer back in 2009 - it will come too late. He still pulls all the strings at this football club - make no mistake. Charnley is just his latest Pardew (front man)

Talkshite saying that the stewards are being rolled out at Villa - those that are left are turning their attention to the directors box. Garde will be gone in the morning.

5-0 now.

Villa

Villa sound as bad as we did, yesterday.

No prima-donnas or egos.

Sounds like Arsenal are missing some sitters. Howay Leicester - hold on.

Go on Leicester!

It's staggering to think that this fella was once England boss (even if he failed there too) He's fucked.

Every chance he could end up back here, if Palace bin him at some point this year, and McClaren bites the bullet. We know how much Ashley likes to troll us!

I'm amazed to see he find it so funny! Ridiculous.

Another who barely dirties his shirt away from home.

Didn't even break sweat today. Shameful.

Shambolic away performance, but it was no real surprise and it was to be expected. We are in huge trouble - make no mistake. Ashley, Charnley and McClaren will now be hoping our home form keeps us safe. My verdict? We are fucked. It's going to take a miracle to save us now and even then, it's just going to delay the inevitable. Nothing will change as long as Mike Ashley owns this poxy football club.

If he had any decency - he would now walk. But - he won't. He will relegate us and then be left in charge for a 'promotion push', next season. Shambles all round.
