    Never heard of him so will be his first. Good game to referee your first PL game, if true.

    Mark Clattenburg will be returning to Stamford Bridge on Sunday for the first time since the racism claims.

    It is indeed. He must be highly rated as he only started as a football league referee 2 years ago.

    Luis Suarez has, inevitably, been charged with violent conduct. The interesting bit will be how many games he will be banned for.

    I'm guessing Sepp Blatter's Twitter account has been hacked...

    The FA says: "The charge follows an incident with Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic in Sunday's fixture at Anfield.

    "The incident was not seen by the match officials and has therefore been retrospectively reviewed. It is alleged that the conduct of Suarez constitutes violent conduct and it is The FA's contention that the standard punishment of three matches that would otherwise apply is clearly insufficient in these circumstances."

    Well isn't that strange, as by their own agreement with the PL and FL, I believe the FA couldn't take any action which was previously missed by the officials..! :)

    Think they can act if missed by the officials, but not if seen and punished/unpunished at the time. Think it is to do with not undermining the ref's authority.

    Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has been charged with using a weapon of mass destruction. So he faces the death penalty.

    Can't say I support that, though it sounds like he'd tried to kill himself anyway considering he has a bullet hole in the back of his throat. Hopefully they're getting some information out of him first.

    I've been so tempted to read Dan's NSFW comment from this morning. 50 more minutes...

    It's not actually very spoilery. This one is though, just to tempt you, I'll put the most amazing bit of the episode in.

    [nsfw]Not really, I just wanted to see if curiosity got the better of you.[/nsfw]

    It's so exciting though, I can't wait to see what Joe's views on it are. Probably the best scene of the entire show so far.
