    Didn't realise Jullien was at Celtic, really rated him when I saw him play for Toulouse a few times.

    Hopefully Leicester go for a Burton tonight.
    Crunching horror tackle on Vardy's ankle would be a bit too much though.

    So, morning coffee getting ready for work, Jeremy Vine on in the back ground...........
    and I **** you not, first question to his random as hell quest (big bloody Sam of all people) is;
    'So, losing 9 nil and the ramifications.....blah blah.....would you take the job......'
    Its like they are trying to give me rage. I do my best to stay cheery, but I have to put up with this along side endless Brexit talk, and snow flake culture crusades. I can see myself living in the woods with a galvanize makeshift den and tin hat in a matter of months.
    I've never even known them to discuss sport, let alone us as a topic. Truly shocked!
    Anyone else catch it?

    We didn't get any attention before. Nobody cared about us.

    But now after one "incredible professional" performance, everyone's talking about us. We're the team of the moment, the big attraction that everyone want's to play. The fans of every PL team are checking the fixture list. They love our team more than we do.

    I'm loving it.

    He said, wait for it, sit down, make a cup of tea.......he was very dignified....he wouldn't discuss a job that is occupied. Said he hated the speculation of employed managers. He also added that the board quick support of the manager was good. I applauded the comment. The ones who seek the jobs they want while screwing their fellow professionals really annoys me. On the other hand, it soon occurs to me he has done that a few times in his career! Oh to be on the other side of the fence.

    Nice to see sir Alex Ferguson donate memorabilia to a Glasgow university.

    Items included coaching certificates, a Scotland jersey and the referees watch that records 97 minutes a game when utd were losing.

    62 mins and it's Liverpool 4-4 Arsenal.

    5-4 Arsenal this is ludicrous.

    A nine goal thriller. You don't see those very often.

    I preferred it when it was 4 - 4. Four is a nice number, as is 8. Not so keen on 9

    Urgh. Just when I thought I couldn't despise Liverpool anymore. Klopp talking about not turning up for the quarter finals of the league cup because their schedule is too busy. Boo ****ing hoo. Must be tough having that much money, that many top class players, winning week after week playing fantastic football and competing for multiple titles all in one season. Terrible that you have more games to play because you're so good that you progress in every competition going. Bow down to the mighty Liverpool and move things around so it suits them...not in the mood to read that BS this morning pffft. **** off Klopp. **** off Liverpool.
