Defegate or Poogate has blown up, cannot believe it there were loads of rumours about it, but it looks like there is some truth to it. Might explain the long handshake pre match of Holloway & Poyet it looked like Poyet was apologising for something!!

Either that or he hadn't washed his hands

8 hours of driving, only to see them score 3 in half an hour, rubbish, what b.o.r.i.n.g.last hour, Parkinson out!

So - Spurs or Arsenal is todays big question.
I imagine it'll be Arse but an interesting twist that its the North East clubs with the big say

Could be an interesting day im not fussed which one gets 4th spot. It would probably be more fun seeing Wenger squirm on MOTD later than the gravely voiced meerkat though.

Arsenal it is then and i have to say flicking between the 2 games Newcastle deserve to be where they are in the league a truly awful team to watch .

Sir Alex's last game looked liked fun 5-5 lol

CFC - third! That'll do for this season - nice to see the Thank You Rafa placards too.

St Totteringham's Day came very late this season, hopefully it will be 2 or 3 weeks earlier next year.

Very emotional day for me today. It may have been Jamie's last match but I have decided to make it mine as well. I've seen the vast majority of Jamie's games right throughout his career so it's fitting it was the last for both of us. He's contacted me a few times about my head injury so is clearly someone who cares about the supporters so now he's gone, so am I. It's not entirely down to him though; it's the massive inconvenience of the change of KO times and days and the sheer contempt we have our loyalties returned with. We fans, the blood running through the clubs are THE last concern for them. They'll know there's a big waiting list for season tickets so if me and my son don't renew (18 years for him, 41 for me!) so what, there's thousands of others who will gladly have them.

But the QPR fans were superb today. Their team formed an honour guard for Jamie's appearance and the fans stood and applauded the great servant as he ran on to the pitch. They, well the vast majority of them anyway, have always been held in high regard by our lot and we wish them all the best in their endeavours next season.

Newcastle and Sunderland survive to fight relegation again next April... it's tough in the NE.

But still the NUFC fans bang on about being a 'Big Club' - they sound a bit silly these days.

I would like to see a resurgence in the NE though - used to really enjoy our trips to watch CFC lock horns with those two clubs and Middlesbrough when they could all put up a guaranteed good scrap.

Middlesborough really are crap. They always have been. Newcastle and Sunderland have at least been good at some points in their past. Boro are just rubbish

Tony Pulis has left Stoke City, I hear Everton are looking for a new manager

Just seen this on Sky Sports also. Dont see who can make them better though ? Pardew is now the 2nd longest serving manager currently in the Premier League lol.

I see West Ham have signed the pikey on a permanent deal.
