Does anyone remember David Unsworth joining Villa one summer - then leaving a few weeks later for Everton without playing a game? Seem to remember John Gregory saying that Unsworth was well and truly under the thumb of his wife.

Brett is excellent going forward from right-back, and pretty good defensively in general. The only times Brett scares me is when crosses come in from the right and he's defending the far post - such as the own goal at Watford. If he came up against someone as good in the air as Gamst on the wing he'd be in real trouble.

Well I only thought about it the other night - and have never really paid attention to who kicks off before - but it was Arsenal who took the kick-off on Wednesday. Not sure if they do this bet every game of just televised ones - anyone know this?

The other night before the Arsenal game I noticed Ladbrokes take bets on who will kick-off a match. It was evens for both teams - so essentially it's just a market for fun - and Ladbrokes over time will not win or lose on. But then I thought - maybe they've got it wrong. When the coin is tossed there is two possible outcomes obviously. Then the winning captain chooses whether or not he wants to choose ends or take kick off (correct me if I'm wrong). So my theory is: If the away side wins the kick-off there is a 50% chance they'll take the kick off, and a 50% chance they'll swap ends. If Rovers win the toss - I'd imagine they will always choose to kick towards the Darwen End in the first half - meaning the away side kicks off. If my theory is correct - then there is roughly a 75% chance the away side will kick off - meaning evens is a great price. Does anyone think this is the case - or am I way off?

It could be worse - we could have Steve Staunton in charge.

My thoughts exactly

Has anyone tried searching for David Bentley on Youtube? Quite an eye opener

I thought Carrick was terrible last night. He just stands there - and puts so many passes astray. He's no way an 18.6m player. Yes United are doing well with him in the side - but we've won impressively with The Axe playing.

lol - Glad you saw what I was doing there

NnnnnnnnnNineteen.

Nelsen over Henchoz? I think that goes without saying Ricky.

It's taken you a month a half to put that together!

Well the Axe gets my vote

I've been once when we had Jansen, Amorouso, Enckleman, Gresko, Jemal Johnson, Paul Gallagher playing - can't remember if there were any other first teamers or not. It's great being able to stand right next to the pitch and watch.

Do we know if Dunn is going to get a run out tonight? I only live round the corner from the County Ground so might pop down if he's playing.

There is an article on the bbc now about Neill joining the hammers. It asks for opinions on the move - and one West Ham fan responded with "At least his car will be safer down here"

8 years this week since Jansen joined from Crystal Palace. Can't believe it was that long ago!

I'm guessing its to the Arsenal Vieira one. He comes from Senegal, He plays for Arsenal - except theres kind of rhymes.

People have been arrested for less

PLAYERS OUT: Dunn 5.5m PLAYERS IN: Savage 3m Dunn 2m Even if we do end up paying 2m for Dunn based on appearances - we've really screwed the big club over With the money we got for Dunn - we replaced him with Savage and Dunn with a bit of change! Cheers Big Club!

This could go on indefinitely - think we're slightly going off topic

I thought he meant flak
