Am I the only one who thought "imagine him getting a red card against City if he comes on"

Tiote looks a little like Mr T to me in this photo... Swan Hunters

This ref is going to end up sending someone off, making stupid decisions - that was never a yellow card for not being back far enough

Ben Arfa for Obertan please. In fact, no 'please'. Just do it.

Cabaye's pass was the first time I've seen a FIFA lobbed through ball replicated so perfectly

the level of officiating this season has been truly awful, across the board

never realised it until now, but Norwich are an irritating bunch

I listen to Beyond the Pitch, which can be a bit hit and miss sometimes, except for when they have Phillipe Auclair, the legendary Ray Hudson (his preview of the clasico was rather entertaining, and the weekly show they have with Warren Centre Partin' The Barton one from after the Chelsea game was quite interesting if you get the chance to listen to it - it's about 32 mins onwards. Warren basically said very bluntly that Mike Dean is someone who makes controversial decisions on purpose, and he's like that whenever he has been in his company that he's very self-important. Imagine if a manager said that...

Played at rightback a few times I think - and given the choice of Gosling or Perch to challenge for a header with Holt...I know who I'd choose...

There's no way Raylor should be playing given his performance today. Needs a rest I think. Don't think Williamson will be fit in time, and I doubt Kadar will be given a chance. On that basis (and assuming Perch is to be avoided at all costs) ***************** Krul Simpson ** Colocinni ** Gosling ** Santon Ben Arfa ** Guthrie ** Cabaye ** Gutierrez ************* Ba ** Best

That just completely summed Shola up

Noooo!

Shola for Obertan, please

Desperately lacking width, think I would put HBA in place of Obertan, Obertan off for Best, and (possibly), Santon on for Raylor. Wishing for both is probably too much, so I'll settle for the first substitution

Absolutely gutted I'm not going to this tbh. Can't get time off. I was with a Welsh lass for about 4-5 years, so spent lots of time down there and amongst welsh-speakers...Bread of Heaven is possibly the most emotional and soul-stirring hymn, especially when it is sung en masse. Hope it makes Speedo proud.

Totally shocked at the news, like everyone else. There aren't enough superlatives to describe the man. So sad, so unbelievably sad.

Did I just hear that right? the commentator: "Liverpool might find themselves in a game this afternoon" well nar.

there is something eminently punchable about his face but damned if I know why, genuinely detest the guy without having a clue why Form a queue

HBA for Jonas? Or Ba? Heart says Jonas so we've still got two strikers on, but head says Ba to try and bump up the midfield

I hate Cahill

A bit late in the day, but Tim Krul spotted earlier in the day in Sainsbury's in Heaton. Had lots of healthy stuff in his trolley...likes his Actimel, though he did give in to temptation with some muffins from the bakery. Not that I was stalking him up and down the aisles like...

right, i'm over to RTG...

Never ever, ever, ever tell me that Stoke play good football, and don't resort to unpleasant tactics. I reserve the right to deride any 'pundit' who cluelessly states so. Have it.

the loyal fans leaving 20 minutes before the end, of course

What was Clattenberg doing there
