Priory Clinic perhaps for the lone ranger? Tonto would know.

Liverpool going to sign Torres? You cannot be serious.

After dominating Liverpool for long periods on Boxing Day and ending up with no points, today Burnley get just deserts with a magnificent 2-2 draw away to Man City after being 2-0 down!

What a performance from Barnes throughout.

He he he ....Everton..........be lucky to survive the drop.

UTD UTD UTD UTD UTD UTD UTD UTD UTD UTD.

Yep SHAMBOLIC doesn't cover it! But to even think they will be relegated is nearly but not quite as ridiculous as Rooney saying United will win the Premiership this season. Now that is funny! :0)

Well done Burnley!

Former Crystal Palace player will return to Selhurst Park with Hull City manager Steve Bruce the early front-runner to replace him at St James’ Park

Alan Pardew is set to become the new Crystal Palace manager after they agreed a compensation package with Newcastle United thought to be worth around £2.5m, with Steve Bruce the early front-runner to replace him at St James’ Park.

Pardew has decided to take on the challenge of keeping Palace in the Premier League as he feels he will never win back the support of the majority of Newcastle supporters and is fed up with being ignored when it comes to player recruitment.

Telegraph Sport has been told Newcastle are also considering appointing a foreign manager for the first time under Ashley. Saint Etienne manager Christophe Galtier has been linked with the job in the past.

The final straw for Pardew is thought to have come when Ashley informed him that his request for a new striker in January had been turned down.


The 53-year-old was the fourth longest serving manager in the country, but has been unpopular on Tyneside for much of the last 12 months after a series of lengthy slumps in form.

Although Palace do not have the same resources or media profile as Newcastle, Pardew has come to the conclusion he has taken the club as far as he can because of the restrictions put on him by the board at St James’ Park.

However, many would argue Pardew has not made the best of the players available to him this season and, significantly, his departure will be celebrated on Tyneside rather than mourned.

Although their parting has been amicable, Newcastle owner Mike Ashley has not fought to keep Pardew after he indicated in a phone conversation on Monday that he wanted to leave.

Instead, Newcastle were keen to make sure they received suitable compensation for a manager who had five years remaining on his contract and will now look for a replacement.

Hull City manager Steve Bruce is one of the name’s under consideration and significantly, the former Manchester United captain gets on well with the club’s influential chief scout Graham Carr.

Other names likely to be considered are former Palace manager Tony Pulis, who has been waiting for the right job to come up since quitting at Selhurst Park in the summer. Tim Sherwood is also keen to be interviewed.

Another fabulous performance from Burnley Stan. My team are Donald Ducked, I doubt Our Chairman has the balls to sack Martinez, Everton fans may well force the issue. In a way I admire his stance not to change his philosophy, but only he is blind enough to realise that the present players are just not up to fulfil his obvious fantasy. The reality is on present results, shite doesn't cover it. Martinez biggest failure, will not take advice.

David Moyes greatest achievement 4th in Premiership, following season 17th. If Martinez is not careful 5th last season, God forbid relegation this? :0(

Everton lose again miserably. he he.

Bring back Davy bring back Davy bring back Davy.........ho ho ha ha he he

Blinkin' hell.....Spurs have turned into super-beaters...!....5-3......my betting gone down the spout this end of year !...

Yes indeed CC, it's never over till it's over.

Quality listening in about 45 mins on Talk sport (difficult to believe I know but) when the manager of the year is on... guess who -):

Reckon Lockets would make a good sponsor for Burnley Stan, Sean's voice needs all the help he can get. :0)

I find it interesting you guys have nothing to say about Stephen Gerrard who is apparently going to terminate his career with Liverpool and move to the the USA and play for LA Galaxy.

EL - What is there to say, great player, great servant to LFC. Coming to the end of his career making a few bob before hanging up his boots. Good luck to him.
