No, the referee just missed it. Both halves it's happened. He was being sarcastic. The rule changed at the euros.

Macca just said he'd bring on Aarons and Shelvey after 15minutes. Why didn't he do that kind of thing last year when he had the chance?

Should play full back or not at all

ffs

Disagree. He's had some bad touches and his set pieces have been poor, but he's getting into dangerous positions a lot. It will come with time.

When he singled Anita out for praise I found myself wondering why he thinks it.

Ritchie looks rapid

I haven't been this excited about a match in as long as I can remember. We'd better not be shit.

He'll still be better than Stephen Carr

That was interesting actually. I've got Wales and England both being knocked out in the quarters. England knocked out in the semis by Spain who then get beat by Germany in the final. Interesting. I had: QF: Swi - SPA Eng - POR Ger - BEL FRA - Wal SF: SPA - Por Bel - FRA F: Spa - FRA

Looking trim on Ryder's twatter feed

A point away? Progress As long as we don't lose. I've got a fiver on unbeaten all season (66-1), and a £20 free bet on >100 points (16-1).

Commentator: "Plenty of attacking threat in this Newcastle side now." Don't know what game he's watching.

At least he kicked it. Cisse would have fallen over and been offside.

I love Rafa. When did we last have a manager who'd tactically change it 6mins into the half?

That was like me back in school. They'd never let me kick towards the motorway end.

f***s sake, him following Dean tells me the powers that be want us down. They'll probably dig up Trelford Mills for the Spurs game. If he's dead of course. What's Uriah Rennie doing these days?

I really hope I don't regret posting this, but Adebayor really is totally shit now.

That was the point.

Darlow looks like a totally different player from his debut. Bright future.

Absolutely brilliant so far today. Breaking up Palace attacks, playing the simple ball. He's like a new signing.

What a fucking comedy goal.

Jonas' unfair dismissal case is due to get under way at 10:00 GMT at the Employment Tribunal Court in Birmingham. Could be interesting!
