I would be an excellent ref. I would have sent off Ben Haim for the tackle and subsequent dive (two yellows there) and made sure Mascherano was ok before letting play continue. Seriously though, I didn't think it was a red at all. Both players went for the ball at a funny angle - someone was likely to get hurt but there didn't appear to be any malice or recklessnes there IMO. (and the first goal should have been disallowed).

Some people really are quite feeble in the head. I couldn't give a toss about this result. We are either the third or fourth best side in this division. I would have thought that was patently obvious to anyone. Leeds are the run-away best side. They beat us by a single goal at their place. Probably the sort of result one would expect. We need some more options in January. Everyone knew that already. There is plenty of time left. If we go back on the sort of run we were on before and continue to only lose to Leeds away or Norwich away and the odd slip up elsewhere we have a good chance of being in the play-offs. Who knows, after January we might be the best team in the division. Merry Christmas all.

Waigo's first against Norwich during the week was a great goal. The pass from James was absolutely brilliant - watch the highlights if you don't believe me! Favourite is probably Connolly v Norwich though.

Even in Wales or Scotland?

Right, I see what you (or rather he) means. My fault for reading the post too quickly and not paying attention.

I think West Ham and Wolves will go down. The other spot is a toss-up between Pompey and Hull IMO.

What's wrong with building a big hole or dumping it in the sea? Serious question.

Eh? We have a match against Huddersfield the next wkend don't we? Or have I gone mental?

(unless we unveil a raft of superb signings shortly after!)

Agree with that.

Not the sharpest tool in the Christmas tree.

No, we definitely won. I remember.

We've beaten Charlton and Norwich; it's about as worrying as an innocuous fart.

That is ****.

Nevermind. Sounds like we were ok but didn't pass it as well as we should have done. The important thing now is to win next week and get back on it then add a couple of players in January.

Missed. Whistle goes.

Corner.

Lambert nearly scored. Bugger.

Hey, Kris! Better get ready for the results wrap-up.

Bloody heck - Gobern nearly scored. Connolly off for Trotman = launch it. Reminds me of the days of Ken Monkou.

Do people remeber in the 1998 World Cup when Chris Waddle said the Tunisians would "go ****e for ****e"?

and a ****.

Were you not pointed back towards the road of truth by the Etudiantes comment or does the delayed commentary mean you can't scroll down a bit? By the way, Gobern has come on for Thomas. Apologies for any excitement caused.

Sorry but this is the World Club Cup Super FInal Match, or something. Important stuff.

Get in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Estudiantes are winning.
