Obertan off with thigh strain. I guess hard game v City takes the toll.

I don't understand the attraction tv companies have in Robbie Savage. He's co commentating on BT Sport now and he offers nothing but stutters, crap jokes and cliches.  I just don't get it.
Agreed however he is an improvement on Michael "oh so interesting" Owen.

The b-lose wankers ruined that minute's silence, it was much worse than a few people coming in late. 'The Last Post' rescued our city from yet more of the embarrassment that small heath repeatedly heap on it. Wish they'd just go bump and come back with a new name.

Ironically I had the sound turned down on the telly at the time but the Wolves' fans were giving it them big style at the end.

Here's another chapter in the book of shame:

Nor me. Why Robbie Savage? Why?
I'd pundit it for free. There would be a subtle Villa bias but otherwise I would be OK. Honest.

Robbie just said "you need more players in the box if you are Liverpool". Just Liverpool not any other club when attacking a cross!

Wolves should have had a penalty there.

HT 0-0 Newcastle Liverpool a dreadful game. BT are having more than their fair share of dross this season.

It's amazing how much more compact Newcastle have become in the last few weeks. Pardew, while undeniably a punchable wanker deserves some credit for that. Liverpool on the other hand look terrible and devoid of any ideas. Hurtling at light speed to becoming a slighter better version of us.

Blues have done well at Wolves, who have been contained and mostly restricted to long range shots.

Looks like the dogshitters legs have gone a bit though.

Let's see what happens next week at Upton Park. Last year, the Wet Spammers were incensed by Villa fans who were singing in the concourse during the 1 minute's silence (oblivious, I believe, to the fact that it was taking place).

Never been a fan of minute silences at football anyway. Excited fans get to the ground, the players come out to a fanfare of noise and anticipation then all of a sudden they demand a minute silence. It's just asking for trouble.
If there was a blanket ban on them I'd be all for it.

And more Keystone Cops defending from Liverpool. 
I might have been 12 months too soon with predicting the demise if Rodgers under the weight of unmanagable expectations.

The Rememberance Day minutes silence should place on Rememberance Sunday at 11.00 and on the 11th November at 11:00 nationwide, which it does.

Not 10 days before at tribal based football matches which I think somewhat trivialises it.

I would rather hear Owen commentating than Savage. At least Owen achieved things in his career other than stats like most bookings.
