the gap btwn acceptable loss for lfc and what any club would pay is too great
anyway, i also think he'll have a mini-run before the end of the year

so henry back at arsenal is a thing that is actually happening. Do you think Arsene ran this past RVP first?

St. Mirren have the distinction of being the only club ever to sack Ferguson. He claimed wrongful dismissal against the club at an industrial tribunal but lost and was given no leave to appeal. According to a Billy Adams Sunday Herald article on 30 May 1999, the official version is that Ferguson was sacked for various breaches of contract including unauthorised payments to players.[24] He was counter-accused of intimidating behaviour towards his office secretary because he wanted players to get some expenses tax free. He didn't speak to her for six weeks, confiscated her keys and communicated only through a 17-year-old assistant. The tribunal concluded that Ferguson was "particularly petty" and "immature".[26] It was claimed during the tribunal by St. Mirren chairman, Willie Todd, that Ferguson had "no managerial ability".

I don't fancy this one much. Newcastle haven't fallen apart at the back, are patient and cagey when necessary, and offer enough up front - and Suarez is out - to suggest an 0-1 is entirely possible. I hope Bellamy is (a) playing and (b) given licence, else this might be grim.

a hoy hoy, are you still working through the bible? i just came across this amazing passage that seems in the spirit of your reading:
2 Kings 2:23-24King James Version (KJV) 23And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head. 24And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
24And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.

Carroll's been good too. Hoping this doesn't peter out now like every other home game this season.

I had a brief vision of a universe where the foreign invasion, EPL boom, etc. never happened. In that world, this sort of game decides titles.

He's done nothing since I wrote that of course xp. But things were sticking to him early on and he was linking things up well.

Newcastle are having the most ridiculous amount of possession without threatening. LFC are bound to nick this.

Getting in the way, basically. Think it counts as an assist.

ok that is one of the best goal line clearances i've seen in years

helluva clearance off the line there.

McLeish said: "You don't want to be bringing attention to yourself. It is not something I want to be discussing."He added: "Was it a shisha pipe [Arabic smoking pipe] or something? I don't know what is in that stuff. For all I know he could have been blowing bubbles into it or something.

The big rumour is a loan for Carlos Tevez, although his wages would surely be a problem and they already have Emmanuel Adebayor on loan from Manchester City; the rules permit no more than one loan from the same club (http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/dec/29/transfer-window-club-guide-premier-league)
wha, why is this even a rumour when it's apparently impossible?

Blackburn, defending, look like a third division team. Utd need to just work 1% harder and this is still 6-1.
