    Yeah, Palace isn't done by any stretch; they are in danger, but there are a number of clubs for whom the same can be said.

    I quite like Martinez, but his willingness to attack at all opportunities has really been undone by the fact that his team cannot defend on the break; they've surrendered more goals than relegation-threatened Burnley to date. Sacking him would probably introduce a modest improvement, but they'd likely be best served by keeping him and adding a bit more mobility at the back...Jagielka/Distin/Berry are all good players, but they're all older, and not the greatest match with a fullback pairing that spends most of their time in the opposition's half.

    Schad, I hadnt realised they played Mary Berry against us. Takes the edge off a great victory that. I do think she's past it, but Godders/Beddytare may disagree

    FT: Tottenham 0-0 Man Utd. Best result for us, even if we can't catch Utd today.

    Newcastle now 3-1 up against Everton with Jack Colback's first goal for them.

    I reckon Martinez is on his way out now...

    I am liking this Newcastle turn around. I got 40/1 yesterday on Martinez to be the next PL manager to leave their job. Yes, Alan Irvine will probably see me lose that bet, but I'm in with a shout whilst he remains in employment.

    Presumably Cisse has a retrospective three match ban coming his way after this match, given that the referee seemingly missed his double elbow on Coleman? Newcastle having a poor start to the New Year would be useful for us.

    Well if he gets a three game ban, he'd back for the game against us if they do it before Thursday.
