This bootroom is stuffed full with stuffing.
No, not really leftovers since the action is really just starting but I’ve been eating leftovers from Thanksgiving dinner for the past 24 hours. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Love me some gravy.
But when you think about it, today’s matches are more like the appetizers for Sunday’s entrees. There is the Merseyside derby, Chelsea v. Arsenal, and El Clasico. Quite the main meal for Sunday.

Carlisle go up 3-1
Keane warming up. About time.
That’s like the 4th or 5th time they’ve tried to play Lennon in behind the defender and kicked the ball right out for a goal kick.
Shite, that was a handball
DAWS!!!
No handball. Hit his chest.
And Norwich can now focus solely on promotion. 3-1
Nice finish Daws!!!
Can’t say I understand that substitution entirely. Kranjcar has been the best player on the pitch.
That was sweet moves by Lennon.
Christ. Crouch again. Shoulda taken Crouch off for Keane, not Kranjcar.
Ohh damn. Almost lost it, then almost won it in the last minute.
I think we deserved the point. Our second half effort was beautiful. Surprised Villa played behind the ball for such long periods of time. I understand trying to hit us on the break but they could not string together any sequence of passing in the 2nd half. Good point away from The Lane
David Silva off injured before the 30th min. Tommy the Onion Bag with insightful commentary: we’ve seen a lot of people slipping out there today; the pitch must be really slippery.
Samp=Genoa game is kind of nuts. Has everything. A goal, some post-hits, a bloody nose, an injury, a red card, a penalty, Cassano making sweet sweet love to the floor (as usual).
Make that two penalties, two red cards, three goals, and a flare.
Ok, three red cards.
We are the record breakers!!
I’ll take the point considering that Villa played so dire for the second half. Though MON should have put Downing, and not The Ginger Ghost, on for NRC.
That said, Heskey still almost stole the points.
