Also, Leicester's booing of Hutton - I understand it is about that Konchesky sending off, but christ, talk about slim justifications for booing an opposition player. It's worse than Albion fans booing him still because he dared tackle Shane Long.

In fairness they need to do something to keep themselves amused, because there's bog all interesting happening on the pitch.

I think it might be time to revert to my free money bet. (Aston Villa 0)

I used to love the "Villa winning at half time / to lose at full time" bet which is usually around 28-30/1, regardless of who we played, but that has been ruined by the non-scoring hoodoo.

Looks like M&M are just following Lambert's philosophy, because they're the same as before, slow build up, poor passing and slow on the ball. Lots of work for Sherwood.

Can't win big on it, but I just view it as 50% better interest than having it in the bank.

But the weird thing is, we have looked truly awful for months now, but we are still not far off being a half decent side.

Usually you'd point at relegated sides and say "they can't defend for shit", but, even despite Arsenal, that isn't the case with us. You can't even say we have a shit squad any more.

We manage the seemingly (or "should be") impossible of being both a quite good side and a breathtakingly shit one at the same time.

We're like an ageing porn star who was once the main man, but now has a pot belly and a soft winkle.

One thing that's different with Benteke this season is that he stops and acts out a 3 act drama with gestures at the ref, teammates or GOD after each sequence that doesn't go his way.

Fuck it , forget about it and go after the ball or a new position why dont ya!

He's probably texting his agent to ask if there was a cooling off period on that contract.

He's got his work cut out has Sherwood. You'd think we have around 16 players today because we keep finding 4 or 5 of theirs on a regular basis.
