The Albion back on the rails confounding their critic i.e. myself.

I think he meant fortune in general rather than that particular bench of judges.

Town thrashed by Bristol City and Wednesday beaten at home. I reckon they're out of it now.

I usually back Forest against the Rams but not tomorrow.

West Brom 0-2 Arsenal (lost faith in the Albion) Crystal Palace 2-0 Watford Everton 2-0 Hull (assuming no adverse Lukaku reaction) Stoke 0-2 Chelsea (the champs won't ease up) Sunderland 1-2 Burnley West Ham 2-1 Leicester Bournemouth 1-2 Swansea Middlesboro 0-3 Man Utd Tottenham 3-1 Southampton Man City 2-2 Liverpool

A better morning than yesterday but in all honesty what the hell do I know?

Our lead striker, BH. Get Dunlop back on, I say. Best 40 minutes since Ian McMillan

We've brought a striker off the subs' bench, Dunlop. Doing well so far but can he turn it round for us?

Lord Carnwath might be with us.

I suppose having played for the weasels he might have inside information.

If I were President of the Supreme Court I'd say I was persuaded by the reasoning and eloquence of Revenue Counsel and not convinced by the Appellants' Counsel. On the other hand, this is the Rangers and WATP, so the Appeal is upheld and mon the 'Gers. That's one of many, many reasons why I'm not President of the SC. Seriously, this stuff is 'way over my head but the revenue guy was helluva good. The body language of the judges, especially Hodge looked ominous.

It means she will follow the majority opinion. If it's divided two for and two against God knows what she'll do. Actually, what she'll do is work it out for herself. A woman of formidable intellectual capacity.

I'm not liking this. Lord Hodge is against us.

Stewart has done his job. Between the sticks is the only non disaster area of the park. Foderingham hasn't matched the prowess of his illustrious predecessors but he's not too bad. Bell was the only failure.

Leicester have performed magnificently in the CL, considerably better than some much-vaunted sides bombed out early in the proceedings. Juventus will be the end of the road for them. Forza Bianconeri.

[The victim*keeps asking them: "Are you British or Irish?" The woman retorts: "You’re asking us why we are in the country because we are Celtic fans?" The woman replies: "We're both*Scottish so pipe down." ] Assault is not justified but assuming that narrative is correct, if the victim were my son and he came home greeting I'd have told him he was asking for it.

Tale of two Cities - both go through with Juve and Athetico.

Both at Wembley, presumably. I liked the old days when the semis were at neutral league grounds, Villa Park, St James, Old Trafford or, dare I say it, Hillsbrough.

Aw, gie the boy a chance. Just because you're sixty years older than yourself doesn't mean you're any wiser.

Well done to the big guy who put a stop to it.

A tackle is not a sequence of freeze frames. The referee has to look at it as a whole. Getting a millimetre of a boot on the ball whilst in the next quarter second clattering the opponent doesn't mean it's not a foul.

I doubt that Barry or Bomber would have the brains for the job. It's more than just firing them up telling them to get wired into they (epithet of choice - Sheep, Greenians or whatever) McCann is a much better option though, as Frankie says, the transition from punditry to coaching isn't always easy. John Greig was the best analyst in football broadcasting but not quite so good as a manager.

United are not the second best team in the league but strangely, I think they're more likely than any other side to draw with or even beat Chelsea at the Bridge. Having said that, the semis will be London v City.

The selection pool is immense. Spoiled for choice really. Can't argue much with that selection. Lack of pace at the back?

No, you're wrong there. It's "Ca shino". Guadalajara Loyal.
