Team news isn't normally available till about 50 mins before kickoff, BBC Radio Newcastle normally have it first.

I don't even want Beckham.

Kinnear would probably have said "What? Clive Heart's had a clarke attack?"

What a cunt.

Will stick with my original prediction made a few weeks ago: score draw. Think I said 2-2 on the podcast.

Probably schoolboys. Do you know anything about any of our academy/youth keepers who haven't played at U18 level yet?

LLLO, I liked it.

Was it as good as Greg's? That one didn't hit the wall either. I'll have you know I scored a screamer today, 25 yards out, hit both posts and then the back of the net, beauty. Never knew you were good at FIFA.

I don't agree about a sin bin.

Did Whitley Bay win today? Almost went down to watch them but got tied up back here.

For once NE5, I actually agree with you.

they are all absolutely correct, but you can bet that a few particular people on here would tell you whatever Mike Ashley does is wonderful, even if we get relegated and end up like Sheff Wed they will still think he's doing all the right things for the club and so long as he doesn't "embarrass them" [whatever that means, poor dears] he will be just, er, great.

What do you think of Chelsea sacking Scolari ? Do you think they are a laughing stock now too Everything you need is right here.

As soon as van der Saar isn't playing, they concede.

Jesus, who scored?

Think I predicted 4-0.

And it's not like they haven't got an expensive "goalscorer" Alves is so bad it's funny.

Mackems have had just as many chances as Arsenal has, Vela has missed 2 good chances but the mackems could have won it at the death. Ended goalless.

Stoke Pompey needs to be a draw, vital that. Also if West Ham could stop Bolton getting 3 points that might be nice as well.

Nine.

Let's hope it ends that way. Doubt it.

Let's hope it ends that way.

8-0.

6-0 down after an hour.

That's at least three this season I'm aware of, maybe more.
