It's at times like this I wonder what SeattleVillain is up to.

Living in a box, drunk and a chain smoker. Life and positivity drained from his body. His only possession a seat.

Kenwright hasn't put anywhere near the money into Everton that Lerner has into Villa. 
Lerner's money has been wasted by a chancer.

I can see us possibly scraping another point, but I can't see a win, and that's what we need to be certain.

I think Norwich and Cardiff have too much to do, but Sunderland should get another win, and Fulham are in form, and have two opponents with nothing to play for.

Stoke are looking to finish well and pulis will be looking to overhaul stoke

I don't think any team lays down and dies to let the opposition win.

Look at Chelsea today. All week the press were harping on about them playing a weakened team, practically giving the title to Liverpool.

Look what happened.

I think the only people who believed that 'weakened team' bollocks were the tedious numpties from Sky Sports who kept repeating it.

by weakened team he meant he wanted to give some of his 20m squad players a game.

I know I'm in a minority liking Mourinho, but it's for a quite specific reason: he totally takes the piss out of the sports media. They hang on his every word and all he gives them is deadpan bullshit. The man is an artist.

Well we need a celeb heading our 'I Like Mourinho' club like the British film industry need a Yank as the lead in a film to be able to sell it. Damon fits the bill. You are our Reese Witherspoon.

Can you believe it was 3 years ago that we played our final game v Liverpool winning 1-0 and leaving the ground knowing the Bloose were relegated.

We finished 9th on 48 points.

All the teams finishing 14th postiton and lower that year are now no longer in the Prem. Only one of them West Ham have returned. 

How low have we sunk...........
