Jon Knibb (aka DC5) gets a mention!
What I said was ' Just a mention of how much admiration the supporters have of our Academy and Reserve players. Alex McLeish is giving them their chance and they are grabbing it with both hands. The presence of Sid and Kevin has to help with the young players.'
Marc Albrighton said that he couldn't agree more as he had been playing under those two for so many years.

It may be a bit Doug-like but Sid and Kevin are like uncles to those kids.

Has he done a streak?
Yes. Anything to promote Acorns.

On Police 5?

That sounds about right.
Do you call him "His Knibbs"?

He'd probably like that but, no.  At best he gets called Jon, when not at best Jonathan.  He gets called Knibby by a lot of people.
Spell check calls me Jon Knob. I am suing them under the Data Protection Act.

Cameron is really impressing this year. He's always been tidy but he's starting to come of age recently.
Keeping the likes of Grealish and Graham on the bench is no mean feat.

Mine changes to Get or Her, depending on my phone's mood.

The game is also on live on MUTV.

A very young Villa side against a very experienced Marure side. Let's hope we can repeat the 4-1 hammering we gave them last time.

That is one hell of an inexperienced Villa lineup. Unless i'm mistaken 0 first team appearances? Will do well to get any kind of result against that manure side.

ManU 2-0 up

We're moving the ball about pretty well though

Jesus, that's got to be cheating.  There are three current england internationals (possibly one brazillian) in that reserve team!

MAN UTD: Johnstone, De Laet, F Da Silva, James, Smalling, Jones, Cleverley, Pogba, W Keane, Petrucci, Lingard. Subs: M Keane, Coll, Fryers, Tunnicliffe, Vemijl.
