Tomorrow's game has a lot on the line for both teams. The Seattle Sounders are comfortably in
the playoffs but want to fend off FC Dallas and Real Salt Lake in the race for the second spot in
the West (the Supporters Shield now being out of reach barring a historical collapse by the LA
Galaxy). DC United is at 10th or 11th in the table - depending on whether or not you're reading
this after the Portland Timbers result - but given their games in hand should be slotted in around
9th or 10th.

second-bottom in the Blue Square Bet Premier Conference, sections of the Grimsby support got a
little uppity after Saturday's 2-1 home defeat to Darlington, and Mariners joint-gaffer Rob Scott

Sigh. It's not exactly a shocking development, but I am still disappointed. I've made no secret
of the fact that I always wanted to keep him, although I appear to be in the minority of Bolton
fans. After much heckling and haggling between the two clubs, including some rude accusations from
Whelan, a deal has finally been agreed, and Al Habsi has become a Pie-Eater for the price of
£4m.
