I see King Kenny is still working his magic.

No comment. It sounded (according to the Grauniad MBM) that Carroll played pretty well, as did that other former Toon player, Bellamy. Enriques, not so much. I don't recall a single mention of Gerrard in the commentary.

I'm delighted to see that my "adopted" home team, Norwich, are doing so well.

Up the Canaries!

Carroll was ok and Bellamy was good, particularly in the art of winding up. Liverpool's defending was comical. I didn't realise Gerrard played?

The MotD commentary (John Motson I think) after the second Fulham goal was "Newcastle are spreadeagled now..."

Well I wasn't there or indeed watching the match but according to the Grauniad, this was Liverpool's starting XI,

Reina, Johnson, Skrtel, Agger, Jose Enrique, Maxi, Henderson, Adam, Bellamy, Gerrard, Carroll.
Subs: Doni, Coates, Kuyt, Downing, Carragher, Shelvey, Kelly.

It is a funny old game.

I'm in shock. Both Lescott and other **** should have been sent off.

Yeah it was harsh. To come from two dowm and have Defoe inches from winning the game aswell.

We need to sign Adebayor permanently and also another strong man as cover.

Another winger aswell and I thing we can actually win the league.

That is of course if Harry sticks around.

Obviously still drunk if thinking Spurs can win the EPL this season
As much as I hate to say it my money is on City unless they implode as usual and not that I dont have faith in my team retaining the title.

The Grauniad said it well. Manchester 5 - 3 North London this weekend. (Apparently last time it was 15-3 in the same fixtures). It's progress.

OTOH London 5-2 versus the Toon wasn't called for either.

City will drop points in their next game. Especially when Lescott and Balotelli are handed suspensions by the FA in the next week or so. City will be left short in defence.

The title race will go to the wire.

Jolly good. Just a pity the bastard isn't African and off getting injured abroad like most of our lot will.

City head to Everton away. I predict a good old fashioned jack pot draw 1-1.
