Big old team like Blackburn. Have to be wary on set-pieces.

Can play either I think. Definitely more a defender than midfielder though unlike say Rodwell who can allegedly play both.

It probably doesn't make it into the top 3 derbies in Britain, nevermind the world. What would you say the top 3 in Britain are? 1. Old Firm 2. Tyne and Wear 3. ???? I know must of us would put our derby above the Old Firm derby and so would I, but for the fact that the old firm derbies are the only real bearing on who wins a trophy in Sctoland. 1. Old firm 2. Tyne-wear 3. West 'am Millwall All 3 far behind anything you'll come across in Eastern Europe/S. America. Not sure about that last sentence. Boca/River and a couple of others but what are the ones in eastern Europe? Are they not just more down to location rather than underlying factors in the three listed there like religion/politics, civil war and docklands business. There loads of big ones in South America aside from Boca v River. Fla v Flu in Rio Nacional v Penarol in M'video Huracan v San Lorenzo in BA Independiente v Racing in BA Universitario v Allianza in Lima Saying that every other game in Argentina is a derby as 8 teams hail from Buenos Aires city and 17 of the 20 are from Buenos Aires state.

Remember thinking David Dunn was going to be the next big thing after that. Was a fucking awful game. IIRC they missed a pen late in normal time but missed and it went to ET which made it even worse.

Wish I has a screen big enough to watch two streams without giving myself a brain tumour.

I'd be pretty fucked off if I was a Rovers fan like, can understand being cautious away from home but we're hardly Barcelona.

Dear me, thats defensive as fuck, 6 defenders at least. Eugh. Need to score early doors.

Carroll can trap a bag of sand though, Carlton Cole has yet to master this basic skill.

How the fuck is that not a red? Studs showing, over the top of the ball, no control.

Aye.

South Coast gets pwopa norty from twime twime.

Who's in goal? Random Adams?

Nee chance, few year ago maybe but absolutely no way now.

Big fan of Cabaye from the limited times I've watched him.

RIP Robert Enke who died a year today - http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/eleanoroldroyd/2010/11/a_life_too_short.html

Of for fuck sake you spawny deckchair sporting cunts.

Hmmm was already on his way down like. If wasn't already falling and went down normally then stonewaller.

Playing 5 flat across the middle it lookslike with Gyan wildly isolated.

Hope Spuds get one late doors. Love it when teams playing for the 0-0 get done at the last, even more so when its the mackems.

Haven't looked like scoring from a single one. Need to get the beanpole on.

Gary Bennett or is that BBC Ncl?

1906: TOTTENHAM TEAM NEWS SNAP Rafael van der Vaart, Roman Pavlyuchenko and David Bentley all start against Sunderland.

If Shola is out I'd be tempted to hoy Routledge in. Both Givet and Salgado lack pace in a big way and are susceptible down the flanks. Get at them and get balls into the middle for Carroll and Nolan.
