That's a disgrace. Such a scummy footballer. Comparing it to what Cantona did as well, Jesus Christ.

p.s. Words cannot express how much I hate Stoke.

Yeah well Man U were gonna come out all guns blazing no matter what. This is their "win the title" game: think they're gonna let us stand in their way? Would be nice to cause an upset, but given the current situation I'd say we'll be lucky to get away with nil! Hope we score though, get a point and move a little further out of trouble.
If we could somehow win, we kick QPR and Reading into the Championship, which has to give us a fighting chance. You never know...

I think had City won and postponed number 20 for a week then their team might have got complacent but it'll be a carnival atmosphere at OT tomorrow night.

Priority has to be to avoid a thrashing ala Chelsea 8-0 as that could have a really big effect on the team. An early goal for us could make it very tense though. Think Gabby's back as well.

I want to put some money on a United win to soften the blow but the odds are so short.

Another horrific performance this week, i'm about ready to slit my wrists.

This is the table now. Felt like a child high on fizzy pop when that equaliser went in in the Spurs game. As a result we are now 2 points ahead of Wigan instead of level but in the relegation zone on GD.

Beat Sunderland tomorrow and we drag Newcastle right in it.

Each game is getting more tense. I can't take this anymore.

Sick Benteke didn't get young player of the year: I know Bale is great but giving both awards to him just seems like a combination of laziness and lickassery. Why did he need to get both? There were plenty of other candidates.

Scotsman vs Italian tonight! Gaah! My fingers are bitten down to the bone (nails went a long time ago...)

Well, this is villa safe then. Always thought they had too much quality to go down and rated Lambert. Actually think this makes the toon favorites to go down, harder fixtures than both sunderland and villa (imo) as Carroll and Nolan are going to want to smash us.

And with Villa safe I can see Wigan grabbing 3 points on the last day of the season as Villa will have nowt to play for..**** sake.
