Not until we're in League 1.

Don't we all!

At least Ramirez is a goal threat.

I suppose he gives defenders an outlet ball by making himself available.

Agreed. The situation seems to be getting very lax.

'City'? I presume you mean Villa. Other than that I agree with all you say.

He was taken out. Retaliation for his challenge on their keeper?

It was an obvious touch that a ref in a better position must have spotted. In a situation like this it's up to the ref to check with his assistant as to whether he had seen the flick-on. Even watching on TV You could see it at the time. Old Trafford bias.

This what I used to have: http://www.simoncars.co.uk/bond/slides/Bond%20Minicar%20Mark%20F%201959%20Family%204S%20front.jpg It had a single-cylinder 197cc Villiers two-stroke.

We're level with Arsenal.

I've come to the conclusion that Mané's shooting technique is suspect. He leans back when he tries to shoot with his right foot and the ball goes sailing in the air.

It certainly seems that way.

Even the first???

Ouch! Didn't expect that

That was my feeling. I was sat in the central Kingsland, right behind Rooney's cross, and at no time did I think it was the keeper's ball. My immediate reaction was 'how did those three get round the back without being picked up?'

Not fear, just an awareness of the threat. If you had had any dealings with the Arab/Muslim world then you would appreciate my point. If not, then you probably won't.

Friday traffic is horrendous already. It's bad enough without the football.

Oops. That says a lot about my way of thinking

There's always the hope that some may get injured before we play them. Is that a dishonourable thing to think?

Two domestic loans, no more than one from the same club. Foreign loans essentially unlimited.

Oh the irony!

Good point. Perhaps we shall have to convert Bertrand's loan into a purchase?

Hmm. If they didn't make them illegal I would never have known about them.

But who's going to watch them? Surely most of those interested would be out on the pîss. Or something.

The Torres of a few years ago would be fantastic but, sadly, if he were any good they wouldn't be looking to offload him. There's no point in buying on reputation.
