City 3-0 West HamPortsmouth 0-1 Manchester United Gerrard Saves
Liverpool 2-1 Manchester United
Ok, see, this is why it's not such a great idea to like both Liverpool and Manchester United.
Because yeah, I wanted United to win, and Berbatov to be amazing on his debut, and Wayne Rooney to
score a hat-trick or something. And instead I got Rooney marooned out on the wing, an own-goal for
Wes Brown, and the Edwin van der Sar Comedy Experience.

At the risk of upsetting the few lovely and loyal Newcastle supporters that frequent this site, I
did find myself nodding at this article written by Matthew Syed in this weeks Times.
"The only way that Newcastle fans are ever going to be truly happy is when they have
formed a collective to buy the club and have made a pig's ear, as they inevitably would, of a kind
that would make Freddy Shepherd's last remaining strands stand on end.
So much for posting the predictions earlier this year. Ahem. I have been in London with the child,

Last season it was Roller Coasters: this season its Snakes and Ladders. It certainly was this week;
we got four points to go up the ladder, but lost Woodgate and Jenas to possible serious injuries.
We gave an excellent team performance to take a point off Man. U but with Newcastle winning at
Portsmouth we slid down the snake again to hover one point above the relegation places.
