"If it was 0-0 maybe Ashley is a little bit more mentally in control of the situation and doesn't do the red card foul that you mention," he said.

So - 1) It should have been a red card, even his own manager is in no doubt of that - and 2) The Chelsea manager thinks that refs should make allowances for players being in a losing position and accept that when you are down, you are allowed to lose control mentally and commit red card fouls?

I am going to assume that this quote is the result of a language anomaly and that Villas-Boas didn't mean what he actually said. I hope that's the case anyway, I quite like him.

[DevilsDuck]

Yeah, I thought that made no sense!

If the ref had got it right then they wouldnt be losing and cAshley would have been in a better mood!

There we are then. City eventually get that result over United. I suppose it was inevitable after the amount of money they've been spending over the last few years. yes, they were unbelievable today but all they've done over the last few years is just plough money into a new team year after year, until they have now eventually got it right.

[Yudster]

We lost to Sheffield Wednesday. Kendra is happy, I suppose that helps....actually it doesn't.

Saw the City - United game. Right up until the sending off it could have been a whole different thing, but I have never seen a team so clinically, ruthlessly go about demolishing a ten-man arrangement as City did. Very impressive. I said from the start that I think this Premiership season is a two horse race between City and United. Haven't changed my mind yet.

Well my mum's happy and her partner came back from watching the QPR v Chelsea match at the pub with the Chelsea-supporting landlord as pissed as a fart.

Hopefully that makes the 6.27am sport bulletin tomorrow, and the one at 7, and 7.30.......

Bloody hell, really Leeds were looking like they were going to come up at one point next year, I'd like to see Blackpool back in the Premier League, always enjoyed Holloway's post match interviews on MOTD

[SAV1OUR]

"Unworthy opponents" my arse.


UTMP.

[Bonanzoid]

So gutted. Had all 8 Champions League matches correct on my coupon (including the 2 draws!) and my other team was Leeds. Useless fuds.

[SAV1OUR]

Most-watched video on BBC website apparently. Epical somersaults!

I do like Leeds for some reason but was gutted when Blackpool went down last season, would have rather they stayed up than Blackburn, so it's nice to see them win by so much, would also be nice to see them back in the Premier League next year, I've missed Holloway's great after match interviews, always fun to listen to.

To quote Manchester United fans last year to Liverpool - "Thursday Night! Channel 5!"

[DevilsDuck]

[Yudster]

I am sad too but only because Mr Yudster is sad. Thankfully though he is not one to allow his life and mood to be influenced by football to any great degree, however staunch a supporter he is.

[DevilsDuck]

I was briefly influenced by the pain last night, but I'm back

To quote Manchester United fans last year to Liverpool - "Thursday Night! Channel 5!"

Well...it is true...but I dont know when they show the LDV vans trophy, so I havent got a very good come back

[dimtimjim]

I watched it last night. And thoroughly enjoyed it. Mwhahahahaaaaaa!

[DevilsDuck]

Good, it must be nice to watch a decent team for a change...even if they are Swiss

[Johnny 1989]

Manual Almunia is back on the bench

Apparently Flappihandski's knee injury has ruled him out for a while & Mannone has been put down for being a useless gimp.

Still we got through with a game to spare thankfully

he's gonna have to actually earn his £50k a week now, as opposed to spending all his time in the coffee shops of islington!

[Bonanzoid]

Can't believe a year ago Almunia was ahead of Szczesny*. Ridiculous!














*It's sad how proud I am of being able to spell that off by heart.
