Perhaps invest in some instant replay tech for the refs instead...oh right can't generate income from that, bet they feltch themselves they're so tight.

I think I agree though.

Anyway gooner Tim decides to break Palace hearts. If Tim Sherwood was offered the job earlier then Tim Sherwood mighta taken it. Tim Sherwood was hardly gonna accept being second choice because Tim Sherwood ain't gonna be anyone's sloppy seconds but Tim Sherwood's.

It's a shame really because I'm dying to see him back. Forget Mourinho, this guy's the real entertainer.

Nope. Journos have only recently been domesticated, they were the worst of the lot for racist, sexist, whateverist bullshit. Now they have to hold their true natures in check because of fear, but they have taken the opportunity to be massive hypocrites really well. You think the likes of Samuel and Woolnough (the saint) didn't enjoy a bit of banter when the recording devices were turned off and the booze was flowing?

Keown was particularly awful on this, feeling people needed to be force educated into speaking and thinking the right way. The fear, you can smell it. Our Arry is one of the few who doesn't seem terrified.

But can MacKay ever work again? Should he still be England captain? Should he be stoned, or dunked, or burned? He broke the golden rule - don't get caught.

Almunia has retired after being found to have a potentially lethal heart problem.

Hope it doesnt cause any issues for the guy in later life.

During Tottenham’s Europa League clash with AEL Limassol last night, ITV Sport commentator Clarke Carlisle came out with the easily the most bizarre line ever said during a football match.

Or probably ever.

‘There are white rhinos around the world who would love to be goalkeepers,’ he confidently barked.
