Yeah 25th July 2009, didn't go myself but went to a friendly against you lot a year before and it looked like kicking off then so no surprise that something happened last year.

It had pictures of all the blokes involved in yesterdays paper, some right ugly bastards. Not sure why they thought they would get away with it where it happened seeing as due to there being lots of pubs/bars on that street the place is covered in CCTV.

Liverpool struggled at home to Sunderland and apparently Sunderland were much the better team and Liverpool were fortunate to get draw. Tottenham lost again. Last season's 4th place finish is looking even more like a fluke by the day. Blackpool lost the Lancashire derby at home to Blackburn with Blackburn getting a last minute winner. Fulham kept their unbeaten record going with a bore 0-0 draw with Everton.

In the Championship, Preston finally ended their away day blues and beat the sky blues, Coventry 2-1 at the Ricoh Arena. Portsmouth somehow beat Leicester 6-1 at Fratton Park on Friday but I expect Leicester to get out of trouble. I expect Preston, Scunthorpe, Barnsley, Millwall and Portsmouth to be the teams fighting to stay in the league.

In Germany, Bayern Munich lost at home to newly promoted Mainz. And to continue the shock results between newly promoted teams and European heavyweights, Levante held Real Madrid to a 0-0 draw.

How about that for football knowledge.

I expect a similar right up about todays games.

As I've said previously it doesn't help that he's been thrown in the deep end as sole striker because Moyes won't play 4-4-2 and has had little to no service from the midfield. Lets just see what happens eh?

One thing is for sure - if he is given more game time then you lot really are in trouble.

He really isn't very good.

Ah right thought it was from then, we have a right bunch of idiots following us, only for the fighting as well. Thank god it's only a minority.

Well you did say you were worried

Bolton are one of those annoying teams you can never be totally confident about beating I think...I actually hate them and their supporters but yeah lol.

That's good news for Arsenal and Ben though, you're only a point ahead of them when it could have been 3

Thanks. Yeah, i'l write about the matches after each matchday.

Manchester United dropped yet more points at Bolton. Chelsea fans must be laughing their arse off. After the defeat to City most people would have been expecting Arsenal and Man United to both get wins but they have both blown their chance. Wolves lost 2-1 despite being the better team for most of the game and have for the third week running lost a game in the last 5 minutes that they should have got something from. Newcastle were much the better team in the first half but seemed to decide it was a good idea to just defend for the entire 2nd half. Stoke deserved their win.

[Locke.]

Good point for us yesterday. Playing at home against a Sunderland side that are clearly better than us with players like Mignolet and Al-Muhammadi in their starting 11. If things keep going this way we might actually just scrape staying in the premiership for another season.

Least you wernt 3 - 0 down to west brom at your home ground...

Give it a few weeks and I'm sure we will be

[30stone]

Ive got a weird feeling we are going to get a point or more at chelsea after that..

We were poor at sunderland and poor at home to west brom..

[bbfan1991]

Rooney ruled out.

Gotta let WBA enjoy the moment Ben.

I'm not fooled by their good start. They will be around the relegation places come May in my opinion.

And I watch my team play every week when their playing at home or away in the North West.

Watching highlights of the Arsenal v West Brom game it shows how important having a world class keeper is. If Arsenal had a world class GK (Like Cech at Chelsea for example) the 2nd and probably the 3rd goal would have been prevented and Arsenal would have won 2-1.

I'l post my review for the Champions League games later.

[DDRickyDD]

Chelsea are a stronger team than Marseille on paper but Marseille should not be taken lightly, they have dangerous strikers such as Brandao and Gignac and won the French league last season which is ranked as the 5th best league in Europe. Also Drogba will not be able to play against his former team due to his sending off in the match against Inter last season. For Marseille they really need at least a point after their 1-0 loss at home to Spartak Moscow as they will have to go Moscow in November and teams don't tend to get past the Group with three defeats.

Arsenal will, apparently be without Almunia, who is crap but Fabianski is even worse so not good news for Arsenal. Partizan aren't a great team, in fact they are a poor team but with the hostile home Belgrade crowd it will not be easy for Arsenal but I fully expect them to outscore Partizan perhaps 3-2 to Arsenal.

In the Championship, Preston have a diffcult match at Elland Road and I would be very happy with a point but I fear a thrashing unless Lonergan can perform like he did on Saturday. Promotion challengers Cardiff have a game they should win at home to Palace. A London derby at Loftus Road between QPR and Millwall in which I expect QPR to win but they will get into bad form soon and drop off.

[30stone]

Arsenal vs Partizan..

IF Fabianski plays... then belgrade know they will be able to score at least one goal...

Bill Kenwright has been quoted as saying in an interview that he would entertain the idea of us possibly sharing a ground with Liverpool because of our problems with finding a venue and both club's money problems etc. Well he can shove that idea right up his arse..Liverpool have always said a flat NO to the idea now that they're royally in the **** they're suddenly pretty keen on the idea?? No we won't bail them out and no we don't want to share a ground with them EVER thank you very much BK! Dear god.

On a positive note he's apparently talking to three different investors/buyers at the moment, let's hope something comes of it this time. He's admitted he needs to find money for Moyes, I wonder if there's been rumblings behind closed doors about him thinking of moving on.
