Leicester top of the table as I write. 2-1 up at West Ham. Norwich now 3-0 up away at Sunderland. Awful start to season by Sunderland. Will be their season to drop down a division unless they buck up and soon

Watching Swansea v Toon and even though Swansea are playing well I've gotta say that Newcastle are fucking awful. Didn't help that Jaanmat got sent off early but they really are poor and I'd put them in relegation trouble already.

Swansea have got some good players though. Shelvey and Sigurdsson are playing well, Gomis is scoring and Ayew and Montero look real hand fulls.

The BBC pundits, Crooks and Keown are waxing lyrical about Montero. Fair comment?

Stoke have made a few changes. Ireland doing well since he's come on. They're 2-0 down but trying to play proper football. Not the usual kick and rush.

Better ball into him and he'd have scored the winner there. Just over the bar.

Football has gone mad. West Ham keeper sent off for a high challenge on the the of the opposition box. Ridiculous. He didn't even see the player as the ball came over his shoulder.

Very fair mate, he's a tricky little fucker who also works hard. I like him.

By the letter of the law he should've been off but you could possibly understand why he didn't give the red. However, 2 seconds later he gives a yellow to the Palace player for the exact same thing.

Just proves that the ref's are given dispensation, when it suits.

Arsenal started off so well, as usual, but then seem to lack the stamina and vision, or they get bored. Palace have done well, only behind to some crap defending and an own goal.

Got to be off now!

Edit: There you go, could've had 4 yellows but still on the pitch. And from the resulting freekick they're given offside when it's clear nobody is.

Anybody would think they were giving Arsenal the game.

This game reminds me of when Stoke lost to the Rags 2-1 at the Britannia, where Taggart was given the shout that RatBoy would be sent off if he even came near to an oppo player.

No wonder the fans were pissed off that Wenger got chance to swap him.

Dippers v Bournemouth tonight. Got the Dippers for an easy win but 'I'd love it if they beat them'.

Fuck me, the referee's just do what they want depending on what team they're instructed to favour. Micah Richards gets nothing for an arm around the throat yet the Dippers get the call because a Bournemouth player puts his hand on a shoulder.
