Watching the Chelsea v Villa game,much better picture quality. Anyone else think the commentator (forget his name now) boobed when he said the Villa v Liverpool FA Cup game is live on BT Sport!

Unsure. I reckon it must be down to the amount of infected and whether they've managed to keep it isolated. We got a postponement a few weeks back but managed to isolate it and put a team out the following week.

I think the vast majority of us have accepted that survival will always be the goal under Ashley and that acceptance comes at the idea that the Saudi Arabia takeover over the club will eventually pass via arbitration. I'm too scared to think beyond that

The annoyance at the minute is down to Bruce and his negative ways. We're starting games hanging on for dear life from the first minute of the match. The goal not being to get something from the game but to lose by as few goals as possible. It's embarrassing to watch as a fan, it's equally as dismal to watch as a neutral. Pure Anti-football at the bottom level. Bruce's equivalent to what Mourinho serves up at every club he turns up at now.

Basically we'd care a lot less about losing to Man City if we at very least attempted to make a game of it. With Benitez, he'd set up defensively but drill the counter into the players. Pardew would just go for it. Bruce can't conjure up either.

Fairly grim when most of us would have Alan Pardew walk through the door in a heartbeat.
