The pen was dodgy without a doubt but a perfect reposte to Olssens wrongly disallowed opener. Doesn't always happen but today justice was served.

So its okay to cheat(the pen was not dodgy it was a blatent dive), if you feel hard done by....thats okay then....... :blink:

Spurs have a horrid run in, where they play all of the top three, and City are too inconsistent. Liverpool will get fourth (for the record, I said the same too games ago).

It's a shame, I'd prefer things to be mixed up a bit.

on a wham note, have we ever missed a player less after getting rid, than mccarthy. After all the moaners saying hes the best this and the best that at the club.

watching mido and mccarthy slowly killing wham is so funny...........Carnage at wham if they go down, big hull supporter for the remainder of the season.

4 Tottenham 31 28 58

5 Liverpool 32 21 54

6 Man City 30 16 53

7 Villa 31 11 51

8 Everton 32 8 49

Whilst Villa have conveniently imploded and Everton's win at City was a big bonus, Liverpool are still reliant on City and Spurs dropping 5 and 7 points respectively more than they do over the remaining 6 to 8 games. Spurs have some toughies coming up but Liverpool have Chelsea at home to come as well as games that will have a big bearing on who goes down.

Zola is staying, fcuking excellent, looks like Burnley still have a chance of staying up!

Lets hope so, I'll miss days out like yesterday if they drop.

Zola is the umpteenth example of someone proving that being a magnificent player has no relation to being a good manager. When will clubs learn?

It'll be Hull that stay up, not Burnley. If they get out of jail for the second season in a row it'll be both hilarious and sad.

Hughes would almost certainly be the front runner for that one. Although I'd imagine they wont be short of applicants.

O'Neill back to C*ltic?

My mate sent me this, its taken from a Man City messageboard, their arrogance is outstanding.

We all know that City get an unfair amount of stick, always have really.

At the moment we are of course,ruining football. Its simply because we are a big club, with good attendances and have an owner with serious funding to play with that people dont like us.

After last night though I was wondering what the Wigan whinger would think of this idea. (Nice alliteration as well I thought ;-))

The Premiership is now devalued as both a sporting contest and a spectator attraction because too many small clubs, backed by wealthy owners have introduced a survive at all costs mentality.

There are now so many clubs out of their depth in the EPL that possibly as many as 25% of games are more or less decided before they begin.

Wolves starting 11 against Man U, Wigan time wasting in the first 5 minutes and throughout the game last night, Stoke doing little more than trying to get throw-ins, Bolton having specnt years bullying teams with better footballers.

Surely we want more from the 'best league in the world'?

The support of some of these clubs, both home and away is feeble and again goes against expectations of the best league in the world.

So perhaps people like Moz Jacksey (or whoever) at Wolves should be a bit more embarrassed about the aim of 'surviving' in the premiership. Perhaps even allow a team like Leeds or one of the Sheffield clubs to take their place in the top division bringing with them the passion and support to give it a go?

I for one will be pleased to see the backs of Stoke, Hull, Wolves,Wigan, Bolton and Blackburn as they arent really trying are they?

Its not about money though.Its about going down fighting, and belief, and expectation but most of all its about every game meaning something and not simply chalking off half a dozen fixtures as un-winnable.

Its about at least trying your best.

Success isnt measured in surviving another season in order to bring in revenue its about proving that no matter how big the crowd, how wealthy the opposition or how crappy the weather the team have done their level best to win.

Success can be as intangible as how people remember your endeavours.

Can anyone think of anything Rovers have achieved in the Prem that City havn't?
