Haha, Alan seemed a little short of patience by the end of it!

Good to see Fantasy football is still going strong too, we'll need some big weeks from Mr Sharpe to bring the 'Gunners of UKB FF' back into contention 

[Jaspersharpe]

I'll be happy to cling on to third place!

• Sacked a steward after 19 years' service for attempting to return a confiscated anti-Glazer banner to its owners.

Good article about the situation here.

[butters]

That link doesn't work Jasper - well it does but it just takes you to the latest story on the main page - this might work though

[Jaspersharpe]

Yeah that's the one ta.

I wasn't expecting anything out of today's game so was pleasantly surprised how we played in the 1st half - we were good and didn't allow City to settle. Second half was waiting for the inevitable. I think we are safe now. Phew.

Sunderland really pressured the ball in the first half and we just couldn't settle at all.  As for the second though, your keeper played out of his skin and must have stopped three that would have been dead certs on any other day.  I was pleased how City kept at it though and showed some grit and discipline.  Good game.

Sad to read Beckhams career might be over this morning. We'll miss his experience in summer, even if he might not have played much.

[Jaspersharpe]

  He must be gutted. Would have definitely been an asset at the World Cup.

Breaking news on bbc:

FOOTBALL:

Hull manager Phil Brown 'relieved of managerial duties' and placed on gardening leave
 

[Jaspersharpe]

Curbishley favourite to take over apparently.

[nai]

Curbishley?  Do the bookies know how far north of landon Hull is?

Doesn't Paul Jewell have connections with the chairman, better fit I reckon.

[cofe]

Curbishley's a big fan of sharks though innit, and where do you find a big fuck off shark? Hull.



It's a no-brainer for him.

[Jaspersharpe]

It was just some bullshit on Sky.

Coppell is favourite (9/4) followed by Southgate, Jewell and Megson (5/1). Then"shark fan" Curbs at 6/1.

[cofe]

Southgate and Megson don't strike me as shark people. Coppell seems like a nice shark person.

[Jaspersharpe]

Jewell strikes me as more of a greyhound man.

Informative video though.

[chris]

real shame about beckham, especially with lennon out. definate loss for the world cup.

[Jaspersharpe]

Or, another way of looking at it.
