Had the pleasure of meeting Chris Kamara at a charity do once. He was surprisingly down to earth and VERY funny.

Ah man, unlucky Wullie. That's a cunt. I've got the full btts which looks like it has half a shout at this stage.

BTTS in Nat League - long price Chelsea, QPR, Wigan, Cambridge & Sutton to score 2+ goals 38/1

Is this a joke? We've literally just seen how Rafa could organise a defence, build a solid base, get the max out of some bang average players and start to assumble an attack that had real promise, only for Bruce to turn up, undo all that work, regress almost every player and spaff millions on shite players... and you say there's too much emphasis on a manager

Wonder if he's going to walk the dog afterwards to make sure he gets his 10k steps in for the day?

Taking in the U23 game with Simon Smith and (I think) Ben Dawson. Interesting that the other remnant Steves aren't there. Hopefully a sign they're on the way out when this new manager comes in.

Not sure who they'll get for that. When I saw Paddy Kenny, Mark Crossley etc announced for some of the other shows I was a bit miffed at getting Rae but I'm told on good authority from "Mackem at work" that he's entertaining.

Off behind enemy lines to see Undr the Cosh live at the Roker Hotel later this week, Alex Rae is the guest and given Chris Brown's presence I'm hoping it's not too Sunlun focused. Have seen some of the footage from their other shows which mainly involves Parky with his shirt off singing Red Light Spells Danger on the karaoke. Should be funny

Like many others I don't really know if Jones is any good or not (his credible past experiences vs his involvement in the Bruce shitshow) but it's amazing how speaking in a calm and considered manner, not interrupting the interviewer every time they ask a question and not utilising too many tired, bullshit clichés can make me feel reasonably content that he's a safe-ish pair of hands for these few games. Plus, he's had them in every day!

0-6 vs Liverpool will take some beating. The 0-1 against Sheff Wed reserves in the cup under McClaren also deserves a shout.

Be 92pts after bonuses and subs are sorted. Thank fuck for Salah.

I still think some of the RTG lot would list 8 or 9 Sunderland players in theirs, probably including Wilson and Maxi to try and show they're not totally biased.

Another fine performance from Bruno Flashinthepandes.

Managed to get £10 on Man U red card at 4/1 about 5 mins before Pogba went wild.

This is the best thing ever

Salah captain bailing me out yet again this week!

Can't believe it didn't land. Across that match I needed: That SOT for £300 Henry card for £115 Onyeka card for £450 Amartey card for £600 I'd have fucking settled for one

Noergaard 2+ SOT and Tielemans 1+ SOT 60/1

Fornals and Skipp 27/1 PP

Is there a bigger bag of shit on the planet than the bet365 app? Fucking useless.

He's an absolute bag of nowt this bloke. Offers fuck all.

Cucarella and Veltman 25/1 Also with Rodri 140/1

Gallagher and Maxi 2+ SOT each 21/1 All (14) Scottish games over 1.5 goals 35/1 Few other bits and pieces
