    Do not have BT Sport, so cannot watch the man utd and Newcastle game. I was trying to listen to Man City on BBC Radio Manchester, but it doesn't seem to be working.:( Do the BBC have a problem with broadcasting radio rights, regards to the Man City match?

    Can't see Wigan holding on to a 1-0 lead away at Norwich. I see Norwich are 13/8 to win which seems to be great value

    Just snapped some of that up, and getting on Norwich to be winning at half time too.

    Newcastle v United is a dull, passionless affair enlivened by some awful decisions by the officials.

    If that is the case, I feel bad for those fans of both supporters, who have paid good money to see the game.

    What has happened to Everton this season? One of the most exciting teams to watch last season and they have just gone down the drain this season. Stoke have already scored against them.

    I completely agree. I've had enough of it. Match of the Day will be more than enough of this for me.

    Very poor fayre at St James Park

    This always used to be a must-see game if you liked goals

    0-0 looks nailed on at the moment

    Worrying that Bafetimbi Gomis seemingly fainted on the pitch during the Spurs game and had to be taken off.

    Apparently this has been a recurring problem throughout his career, so one wonders if it'll end up curtailing it.

    Man U should've had a goal there, Rooney looked clearly onside.

    Haven't Newcastle got ANYONE better than Obertan? He's so ineffective 95% of the time I see him play.

    Terrific reception for Jonas Guitieres at Newcastle

    First game back from cancer diagnosis

    Wonder if Ashley Young will get into any trouble for his goal celebration?

    You really have to see what Krul's done there to believe it. Completely fluffed a simple clearance to give Young a tap in.

    Everton are in serious trouble. I feel bad for Everton fans, going from a brilliant season to ending up in the bottom half of the table.

    I think they can count their lucky stars that Leicester,Burnley and QPR are also in this league.

    I think Roberto is putting all his eggs in the Europa league basket.

    Why? Nothing wrong with it at all.

    It's just so sad to see my team in the state they are in, much like the dark days of the 90's and early 00's

    Once we are out of the Europa League, as I can't see us beating the more established teams if we get past Kiev, Martinez has to go

    This is just unacceptable form, we've been found out tactically and have no plan B-Z and Martinez is not going to change things

    Leicester are all but down, but god help us if Burnley and/or QPR get a run going

    People said Newcastle were too good to go down and look what happened to them

    If we go down we may not be straight back up and we can kiss goodbye to every single one of our first 11, as they won't want to be in the Championship

    Didn't Moyes have a similar second season at Everton? I seem to remember they finished 17th to survive then went on to finish 4th the season after. I realise that the Everton team has progressed since those days and Moyes never paid £28m on a striker but your club has a history of these anomalies.

    I think Everton will be safe, not because they're too good to go down, just because there's at least 3 worse teams.

    Kicking the advertising board and celebrating right in front of the home fans wasn't necessary.

    I remember reading about this when we signed him - can't remember what the condition is but I'm pretty sure apart from losing consciousness he's fine. Wrong word to use perhaps but I mean in the sense that it is literally just a loss of consciousness with no deeper issue? He has passed out during matches for other clubs and training for the Swans.

    Obviously it is an issue and scary when it happens but I don't think it is a career ending condition.

    You'll find he was actually directing his celebrations at our fans who had been vocal throughout the whole game, who were sat in the section above at the back.

    Cisse banned for 7 games.
    I'm surprised Evans is taking so long about it. If he appeals and loses does tha mean 8 or more for time wasting as well?

    Surprise Evans is denying his charge - what he got to gain apart from look silly.

    As for Everton - been found out and an ageing squad catching up with them?

    Cisse got an extra game ban because of a previous ban this season. 6 games is the standard for spitting offence now.
