Don't know how I missed the blue markings. All we need now for a full house is half a dozen shirt-less Mackems.

Cisse really is the proto-Balotelli isn't he? Sent off within 35 minutes of his home debut.

Fairly harsh looking straight red for Huth at Stoke.

Apparently Cisse's was for grabbing Roger Johnson by the jaw after the Wolves player was booked for going through him.

Dumb. Clattenberg might have given a yellow but it would have been generous. It changed the game which is turning into a card fest now, several Wolves defenders given yellows after the sending off. Pity, because our goal was very pretty. On the positive side the old Taarabt's back, let's hope he sticks around.

Lovely flicked header to give Mason an unmissable chance from a yard out. Cardiff up 1-0 over Blackpool.

Harry, they were using an orange ball in Aachen-St. Pauli today. The Bundesliga is always where it's at.

1–2 Wolves. We just don't have any defensive mid-field with Faurlin gone.

The BBC guy reporting on the Stoke vs Sunderland match has said several times that he is surprised that the match is still going on, and that he is struggling to be able to see the ball.

I cannot understand why McNaughton was taken off unles it's a fitness issue having come back from injury, it's lost us the game.

We're gong to lose this but Taarabt has put on a brilliant show in the last twenty minutes. A joy to watch in spite of the score.

Martin O'Neill's record at Sunderland:

P12 W8 D2 L2 F21 A9 Pts 26/36

He mightn't be there for too long the way he's going.

This season's Championship is surely rubbish is it not? If this ugly, functional West Ham team can be top of it there must be something seriously wrong with its other 23 teams. The fuckers are gonna win the title by default.

Manchester City are two goals up on Fulham in the snow. This match is free on ESPN on Freeview, BTW - channel 34.

Almost impossible to see it on the shoddy internet stream I was watching. Niall Quinn hates me.

From the bbc website:



It's snowing and freezing cold at the Etihad Stadium, so probably not the night to have an 88-year-old mascot. Still, it looks like Manchester City fan Celia Hodkin (left) enjoyed herself. I didn't see her get involved in the pre-match kickabout though.

I love the "...(left)". Made me chuckle, that did.

One might have thought that the tube works could have been co-ordinated with the football, but apparently not.

The tube works are planned several years ahead. They are then distributed to the football clubs, premier league, police etc. so they can plan round them. Sky and the premier league choose not to.

In fairness to the Premier League and Sky, the Victoria Line being closed would be more of a problem for Spurs than Arsenal. Presumably the police et al want one of those two to be at home and the other away on each match day, so it made sense for Arsenal to be at home this weekend.
