Very very odd all that. It was a red all day long. But the ref walked over with the yellow card out, Wigan players surrounded him ... and then he got the red out and sent Delph off. I doubt the players influenced him that much ... but it's hardly going to discourage players from harassing the ref, seeing something like that. Shearer talking s***e - that was a potential leg breaker.

So, nearly two months. That's cool. Plenty to scoff at with Mignolet (and maybe with how the club have stuck by him). There's enough material to slaughter him/all and sundry without making stuff up The 22-second hold and the letting the ball roll over the goal line are two things I don't think I have seen any other Keeper do. Ever.

Not true that though, is it? November 26th - January 15th, or thereabouts.

It's like one of those dreams when you feel like you're running in treacle. You kind of know what you need to do, but the limbs function in ultra-slow motion. But for the rest of us, they've only ever been dreams. His head had clearly gone at that point.

Amazing when you look up the stats - there are only 5 teams with average attendances over 10,000. And only the two obvious supects get over 20,000 (with just under 50,000 and just under 60,000). It really is a joke of a league.

Exactly. If anything, that draw proves that they AREN’T fixed.

The only ‘problem’ with what you posted was the reference to him hitting a bad patch of form - that’s irrelevant. If anyone is minded to create and sing something anti-Muslim against him, I don’t think his form will be relevant. Another reason why I’d rather we stayed away from any religious references of our own at all.

But apart from that, it's spot on. Gareth Barry will be delighted to have wound back the clock. There's no mention I can see of whether the players were breathalysed. Given they were out till 5.30am, it'd be a fair suspicion that they might have been drinking.

Revenue is obviously important - the club is very keen to increase its matchday revenue.

Now you don't even have to look their ages up to know that that's wrong Cabbies would be queueing up leaving their keys in the car, engines running - "over here, take mine!"

I'm not so sure about being able to read that into it. Having very managable debt attached is not something that would endagner a potential sale.

A pharoah is exclusively an ancient Egyptian king, I believe. The title 'King of Egypt' has existed in modern (i.e. A.D.) times. I agree that the words to Campione aren't great - maybe Murph has a better alternative version.

Thread split and partially moved here http://www.ynwa.tv/topic/161921-rip-leroys-brother/ to allow the match thread to continue, whilst people can still offer their sympathies to Leroy for his sad loss. Hope that's ok with you, Leroy. PM on its way. All the best, mate.

Lloris doesn't deserve to be mentioned in that company.
