Whitey Grandad

Time to bring this up again:

Nobody would ever confirm or deny that information was extracted.

No problem, we'll be top 4 by then ITV are really crap on football, though.

They would say that, wouldn't they.

Smart work! Well done Whelk.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned that free kick that he played to himself.

Another of those great nights of a European football at Anfield

On a related topic, why was Greg Dyke sitting in the row behind me in the central Kingsland?

I just wanted to see if he'd thought this through

It's when he's missed six chances in a row that I start to get nervous in case he fluffs the next

He needs half a dozen chances to score, unlike RVP or Agüero for example. But that's why he didn't cost as much.

In an ideal world, at what stage of the season would you like to see us reach 40 points?

Who do you mean by this? Are you talking about the single mothers with two kids who have never worked and have chosen to have a life on benefits?

Just in time for our second cup rup then

We spend over £200bn a year on welfare, how much more do you want?

The only favour he gave us was not sending off Mané or Jose for those tackles late on.

You cannot possibly blame Forster for the first, that was entirely down to José.

We shouldn't have made a substitution when we were about to defend a set-piece.

I haven't seen it again but my recollection is that there were a couple of others free round the back with RVP. John Boy Saint makes a good point about the led floodlights. That cross went very high before dropping beyond the far post and the glare may have dazzled some of them.

It used to be called a tax allowance. Now they take the tax off you and give some of it back.

Some useless match facts to ponder: Man Utd had 6 touches in our penalty area, we had 32 in theirs. They had 3 shots on target, the lowest for them in any Premier League match since August 2003.

He looked out of place alongside Fellaini but didn't do anything wrong.

I've noticed in the last few games that we seem to have started making passes without looking. Just before Fonte's horror pass Bertrand had done the same thing and passed blindly into blank space.

You have to consider the overall picture. 3 games do not a season make.

All good points, particularly the lights. I could hardly see a bloody thing. The ones round the rim of the roof are ok but the ones lower down are glaringly awful.
