This game is being made that bit more epic by Sky's epic music.

Hernandez to get a hat-trick, winning it for Manyoo and dedicating it to the woman that helped him find his ready meal pasta.

What the fuck was Nani doing??

Eurgh. Heard enough of fucking Depeche Mode yesterday, now I'm hearing it again.

Hoddle praising van der Sar's kicking ability. Are you watching Steve Harper?

Arteta absolutely battered us yesterday. He must have thought it was Christmas being able to run at us time after time without anyone going to him.

absolutely shocking yesterday. Sloppy passing, giving the ball away far too much and looked absolutely knackered after about 70 minutes.

honestly don't think he looks before taking a goal kick. If he does, then he's got a square foot. Whats more frustrating is his kicks out of his hands are just as terrible, if anything he should be able to get a bit more accuracy on those.

My legs did go a bit wobbly and I couldn't walk out the ground at full time. I also hugged a total stranger when Cheik scored is this you? http://www.lfchistory.net/images/profiles/player_grobbelaar.jpg

its also really small. Sometime in the 05-06/06-07 season he was warming up for Man City (he was relatively unknown) down where I used to sit in the Milburn. My mate I went to games with and a few people behind us were shouting comments about the size of his disproportionately small head. Personally, I think him now playing for us is karma after that.

I've heard we're signing Espen Baardsen on a free this weekend

I was at Hana Hana last night for a mates birthday. They usually shut at 11pm. As we were paying the bill, around 10.20, 2 lasses walked in asking what time the restaurant shut because they were being joined by some friends who had been at some sort of corporate do and wanted something to eat. The bloke told them they were closing at 11pm. The two lasses responded with 'but they're two sunderland players, can't you not stay open any later?'. When this was mentioned, the bloke looked massively unimpressed and not bothered at all and said no, they were closing at 11pm and that was that.

Mark Douglas was tweeting earlier about the dark days of 2009 when Joe Kinnear went around spouting shite about us nearly having a deal done for him then.

did anyone see Look North's story about a cleaner to Steve Harper and David Healy stealing their wives' jewellery? Obviously the story needed to be accompanied by a video clip, so they chose Harper. What one did they use? No, not one of him making a quality save, not one of him standing as play was taking place or taking a goal kick. No, they chose to show the clip of him giving Danny Simpson an absolute bollocking after Lennon's equaliser against Spurs this season.

*cough* Sammy Lee *cough*. Rafa Benitez did it a fair bit, but it came out 'the foootball kloooob' so I'll let him off.

What's this about beckford? Was on the bench because he was late for the game, having got stuck in traffic on the M62 en-route from Leeds to Liverpool.

Derby fans beginning to turn on Clough Jnr apparently.

Phelan has just had a pop at Atkinson on 5live. f*** off you boring, hypocritical b******.

wonder what happens to Beckford after tonight? Will Moyes be forced into starting him? Pleat had it spot on on 5live earlier in that he should have been in a hotel in/close to Liverpool, not making his way across from Leeds that late in the day.

Fellani out for the rest of the season - Mark Pougatch on 5live

really just sounded like he screamed Jerk off

But not as beautiful. doesn't get his gans with Chelsea fans' wives, either.

Evra could have done better like.

tempted by a Everton, Man Utd, Forest treble at 12/1.

managed to get a rare Saturday off work, so I can actually go. a 9-0 win, 5 for Tiote, 2 for Jose and 2 for Colo, culminating in Pardew kegging himself and helicoptering a close-to-tears Moyes as he's informed by number 2 Steve Round that John Carver has been banging his wife senseless for months while Round himself furiously Martin Woods-ed it in the corner, please.
