You jammy bugger. What did you have on exactly?

And Trollheart, for you;

But then you've got the AC Milan physio.

Not that arsed about Tekkers red card. It was stupid but he's only young, he'll learn from it. He's got us out of the **** enough times this season anyway.

I don't think this is real mate, she's nice, but I dunno if she's the AC Milan physio. I tried doing some internet stalking for more pics before and that was the only one I could find.

I had an unused £20 free bet. I almost put it on Real Madrid to come back in the Champions League, but I decided to use it on Wigan to win the FA Cup instead.

Not seen the Wigan game. Just got in so looking for highlights now, I can't believe that, but I'm very happy to be proven wrong

Scholes is retiring. So Fergie, Scholes and possibly Rooney out. Plus maybe Nani and Anderson, maybe Fletcher retiring because of his illness.

Big changes at Utd this summer tbh.

I actually wanted Sunderland to stay up until they turned us over, love the derbies and I always (used to) think we had the edge in them. There is unfinished business with us and Villa and I have lost all respect for Wigan after the way Martinez and Whelan acted when Haidara could have suffered serious ligament damage so it doesn't really matter to me.

I reckon after all the excitement Arsenal will win on Tuesday anyway and send Wigan down, after Spurs' win they won't be complacent.

Nervy times for us Villans! Ordering spare underwear at this moment ....

Fair play to those who have secured Premiership status this weekend: always good to have your team pull out the stops when it matters. Fluff, I'm still pissed at Benteke: can't afford to have lost him so close to the end. The lack of him on the pitch could be the element that sends us down...

Youth is not an excuse; he's a professional, and he was already on a yellow, should know better.

Great, emotional send-off for Moyes; fair play to the Evertonians! Fergie too, though it smacks a little of symbolism and a sense of superiority even in this moment.

So we're safe then, are we? Can I breathe now...?

In other news: so winning the title for the first time in forty-odd years meant nothing, did it? I would have thought Mancini would have been given the freedom of Manchester after last year, but no, he's fired instead. Ah, football, she is a tough mistress, no?
