Good effort. Was always a big ask to get anything from this one. Just hope Villa can hold on now.

We're looking a bit scrappy now, lost our shape quite badly. Think we need to just hold the ball if we can and get some composure back.

Our crossing is a real weak point in our attack.

Cats or dogs on the pitch. Birds too, any kind of wildlife I suppose.

That's illogical though, the line isn't straight. If it is, the posts aren't vertical. not to mention that they are comparing the portion of the line half-way between 6 and 18 yard boxes to the position of the ball. is the ball going out for a goal kick then? Yep, that's a good point, drop a line down from the edge of the ball to where the line is and it's not over.

That's similar to what i just did except I used photofiltre and zoomed it right in. Traced the post down and the line.

I don't know if that Carroll header might not have been over the line. I've got a screen grab of it and the goal frame isn't straight, you can't judge on that. If you trace the line down the ball does seem to possibly be just over.

Haha, never thought i'd be happy to see Chelsea win a trophy.

Club Physio. To think ours are a fat bald Geordie and a bald Scottish bloke. :'( Do you think any woman could handle being in physical contact with Ben Arfa, Cabaye and co. every day? There'd be flooding on barrack road every matchday, it's best this way.

Chelsea players are now actually passing it to Henderson around their box to win a goal kick.

2-2 then a 94th minute Torres winner please.

Bloody hell, that was quite good.

Plastic scouser on talksport now slagging off Dalglish and bigging up Pardew and NUFC He said he turned the match off when the second goal went in. His 'team' are in an FA cup final and he turned it off. Spacka.

Collymore and Abrahams on Talksport are banging on about it being a crap atmosphere so its not just the tv.

This game is so interesting we've taken to critiquing the sartorial options of the referee.

Just scored for Sheffield Wednesday. Header from 4 yds according to talksport.

They mentioned something about that on talksport during the chelsea game. £15m was the figure they said. I personally refuse to believe it until I hear it from 'Arry. Triffic.

He seemed alright, wouldn't mind him back tbh.

He had some injury problems when he was young if I remember right, maybe it's catching up to him a bit now. Anyhow, the LFC medical staff should have a good idea of how much longer he can keep up his standard, I just wonder if moves are afoot to bring in a young protege for him who'll be ready to take over his role or if they're just going to go out and buy a ready made replacement for big bucks when the time comes or possibly change the playing style to adjust to life without him.

What are your thoughts on Gerrard, Wacko? He's the wrong side of 30 now and from what i've seen of him when he hasn't been injured he hasn't really looked great. You think he has long left at the top of the game? Do you guys have anyone coming through or in the background to replace him?

Redknapp would've primarily used the role to fill his pockets. think we see a lot of him and his demon spawn on telly now? it would be awful seeing his facial tics advertising probiotic yoghurts to aid digestive transit. Imagine him advertising a massage chair. With his twitch his face would be going in so many different directions you'd think someone had slipped you acid.

Mike Ashley needs to set up 'Newcastle United recycling consultancy'. Other clubs can pay us £1m per player they send and they can send their rubbish players to be trained by Pardew for 2 months over the summer and have them back as world beaters. Obviously Woodman and Carver will have to set up some kind of manchurian candidate dungeon to turn them into rubbish players again at the sight of black and white stripes but we can work out the details later. We're gonna be rich.
