Park showed up. About it. Score line flatters MU

Supporting the English side in Europe. Sorry. A bit like supporting the mackems because they're playing down south This. Want to see "United" crash and burn.

Years ago I met this Liverpool fan who named his son "Owen" after Michael. At times like this I like to think about that guy.

Voted with my heart: Blackburn and Birmingham. Anybody but Blackpool actually.

Us at the Lane. Strangest thing. I'll be rooting for Spurs back-to-back weekends.

Love to see Fulham win by four today.

Enrique and Colo were fantastic. Still can't get over Chelsea's substitutions.

The Guardian projects Ireland to start. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/apr/22/squad-sheets-blackpool-newcastle-united magari!

I'm sure someone had that as their avatar for years. You're right they did It was lebowski or dudeabides, something like that.

Rubbish points. Extremely harsh on Williamson. Bar his yellow card, he was excellent all game. My first thought as well. Well, maybe not extremely harsh.

Any rational footballer would have left this club at that time. People forget that supporters were bracing for a long spell in that division and serious financial difficulties. We went down at the same time at Middleborough and it was widely speculated that we would be experiencing the same fate. It's a short career, and I don't blame anyone (especially someone with no connection to us) for leaving like that. He's a very good footballer who provides cover at two positions which we lack it. I'd have him here anytime. This.

1. Barton 2. Nolan 3. Coloccini 4. Carroll 5. Tiote

Gotta come to California.

I don't. I hope he's fit and healthy and doesn't score a single goal. Which may happen, after all the holy trinity of Carroll Nolan Barton is what made Carroll what he is, without them I know he'll be shit. The week after the deal I was listening to the Guardian podcast and they were going back and forth about how Carroll would fare at Liverpool. One of them was claiming that you really didn't need anyone who could cross the ball with Carroll-- he made the crosses look good. And I was thinking why Carroll never seemed to do anything for Jonas or Routledge... And of course now that Carroll is gone Jonas is getting his crosses into Best.

Santa Cruz, California

Nah. Joey for me. ' Barton, Carroll, Colo, Nolan, Tiote.

Ronaldinho, Cassano, Joey Barton. Probably all mentioned.

hedging your bets eh?

Guess who is our most valuable striker? Xisco 4.5 Best 4.3 Ameobi 4.2 Lovenkrands 4.2 Ranger 4.1

So, how serious is the injury?

A drubbing will do.

Sorry if I offended anyone with my laugter. Not that I think Simpson is shit. It's just such a bizarre idea that I can't quite wrap my head around it. Yeah, he's that good. Just giddy at the thought of it. And Nixon is right-- he's probably not anywhere near an international call up. Nor is Enrique. Or any other Newcastle defender. No matter how good they might be. When Liverpool pays over the odds---then he'll be good enough.

Victory over Sunderland. Proved that the rumblings about Ashley wanting to replace Chris Hughton were complete bullshit--had to be. We were moving in the right direction and all was right with the world.

Really like to see Wolves stay up. Can't believe I just wrote that. There are so many clubs more deserving of relegation than them.
