I hate to hint at criticising Kenny but he said the game was lost after the pen. That was in the 56th minute - i.e. with half an hour to go. Rio Ferdinand commented on Saturday that Man Ure won the league by coming back from 2-0 AWAY at Blackpool and West Ham. Whatever the refereeing issues in those games and ours, we MUST develop Man Ure's resilient mentality if we are to get ahead of them again. Howard Webb? played a stinker. That said, if we score 3 goals we win 3-2. Doom n Gloom? Only for those who got all over-excited about recent scores. We are still progressing very nicely. By comparison: Manure? - struggle to beat the team in 15th place Chelski? - mugged by the Geordies who we pulverised 3-0 Arsenal? - ermm, nuff said Everton? - like us. Beaten by our former manager! Citeh? - Play to much like Utd in the 70's. Hardly a million miles away......

Yes, I could tell that it was Smalling. However, for attempts at being slightly jovial, I asked if he meant Anderson, as Anderson is a bit of a porker.

is he? Can't say I had him down as being overweight.

Indeed. The 'ammer's gala dinner descended into a fans v security brawl after Demba Ba refused to sign an autograph.

The Sun reports Gael Givet is at the centre of an FA investigation into a £50k 'bung'.

Yeah but at Everton he can lie in bed at night without the tossing and turning that's brought on from the guilt of having millions to spend. Why would he give that up in exchange for anything? Why shop at Tommy Hilfiger when you can shop at T J Hughes and sleep soundly at night with a clear conscience?

You sound like that fella from the Harry Enfield and Chums show. "I'm richer than youuw!" You do realise that is your club who have got the financial backing and not your personally.

Our TJ Hughes players seem to do pretty well against your TH bunch. And for all YOUR CLUB has spent compared to ours, there's hardly a big gap is there?

One thing that Man City have yet to buy though, is class.

Hope The Swans make it to the PL. Got to be better than Cardiff?
