1805: Premier League 08/09 is a strange beast and no mistaking. Six points separate the bottom 10. I'm not going to pretend today has been a classic, but if anyone can make the best of a bad situation it's Adrian Chiles and his MOTD2 crew. That's on BBC2 at 2200 GMT. Spoonie is answering the calls on 606 right now. Champions League is back on Tuesday - make sure you are, or Stevo will be very angry indeed. Actually, a colleague rightly points out that Stevo will be very angry either way. He's just generally quite angry. So it's up to you really. Bye!
1803: A last word from Danny the Stat then... "Hunky Valon Behrami will be delighted at that scoreless second half in Sunderland. Not only does it mean that his first-half howling miss did not matter in the end, it also means that he's the Happy Hammer goalscoring match winner. And that has massive - massive - Player Rater implications. Sure enough, he's leading the way with 7.08, just ahead of Matthew Upson. Don't like it? Change it, voters, change it..." Sunderland v West Ham Player Rater
1801: "West Ham's Robert Green was so well protected by the Hammers' back four today. They were fully worthy of their three points, but could've quite easily given away at least three penalties." RKW on 606 It was that sort of game...
1757: A resilient West Ham celebrate their first win in eight games, which moves them up to 13th and away from the relegation zone. Sunderland boss Roy Keane will no doubt point to a couple of dodgy refereeing decisions in the first half but his side ran out of ideas in alarming fashion in a dire second half.
1757: FULL-TIME Sunderland 0-1 West Ham
1756: Rob Green collects yet another hopeful, deep cross and that should be that...
1754: Scott Parker takes the ball into the corner to waste a few valuable seconds. It hardly needs saying, but a win would be very, very welcome for the Hammers.
1752: Four minutes of added time... Steve Clarke and even the normally genial Gianfranco Zola are raging about that. Not sure where that came from.
1749: David di Michele comes on for the last few minutes. Craig Bellamy trudges off.
1748: "The question now is, will WH play the last 10 minutes like there is no tomorrow or will they do their usual and sit back, coughing up a late goal." Canadiancharles on 606 Join the debate on 606
1745: Danny Collins' cross comes off Valon Behrami for a corner... which is cleared at the far post, but the ball comes back in and Dean Whitehead flicks it goalwards. Good save from Rob Green.
1742: With 10 minutes remaining, Roy Keane sends on El-Hadji Diouf for Kenwyne Jones. It's a change which seems to send a few Sunderland fans scurrying for the exit. Miserable old afternoon so far for the Black Cats.
1741: "Roy Keane's transfers have to be questioned. To me he just buys lots of players hoping one or two come good." molywop on 606 Join the debate on 606
1738: Fresh pair of legs for West Ham. Luis Boa Morte's legs replace those of Julien Faubert.
1734: Sunderland right-back Phil Bardsley flashes a shot across goal. Just under 20 minutes remaining... 20 minutes too long to be honest.
1733: Djibril Cisse blasts a woeful cross straight out of play. Woeful just about sums up his afternoon. Must be that hair...
1731: "OK, I think it's become quite evident that Djibril Cisse CANNOT head the ball... so why are Sunderland continually planting it on his head?" peter_lpool on 606 Join the debate on 606
1729: Roy Keane makes a double change. Daryl Murphy and Carlos Edwards come on for Steed Malbranque and Andy Reid.
1727: Andy Reid lofts the ball in for... oh don't worry, it's only Djibril Cisse. Ball comes off his shoulder and out for a goal kick.
1723: More boos from the home fans as Lee Bowyer comes off. He is replaced by Hayden Mullins in what looks a defensive move from Gianfranco Zola.
1722: Fair's fair. West Ham are coming back into it now. Sunderland keeper Martin Fulop does well to smother a cross from Valon Behrami after the Hammers midfielder gets to the byeline.
1719: If Sunderland lose this game, Roy Keane might just explode. They have had so much possession, and completely wasted most of it.
1718: Bit of variety there as West Ham actually attack. Lee Bowyer heads onto the roof of the net.
1714: Cross, clear, cross, clear... a pattern is developing here, and I'm not sure I really like it. Whatever happened to imagination?
1711: Sunderland persist with crossing from deep and Phil Bardsley's effort goes over James Collins' head this time - but Djibril Cisse heads wide when he should at least have got it on target. That must be at least the third decent headed chance he's had.
1710: Ooh, I hope Mike Dean isn't planning a night out in Sunderland tonight. Djibril Cisse thwacks a shot at Matt Upson's hand - but Deano turns down the penalty shouts. Ball to hand.
1709: Sunderland are pinging balls into the box for all they're worth - but James Collins and Matt Upson seem quite happy dealing with those.
1707: There they are. The Black Cats kick off the second half.
1704: Gianfranco Zola sends his West Ham players out nice and promptly. No sign of Sunderland yet...
1658: Harry Redknapp has just been on BBC 5 Live having a minor moan at the Spurs fans for their ironic cheering of calamity keeper Heurelho Gomes today. "They don't realise it's not helpful," said Redknapp.
1656: "Re 1308: Is it possible Mike Dean is kamagloire?" genghis26 on 606 Join the debate on 606
1653: Let's see what Danny the Stat makes of it all... "Middling Player Rater marks all round after a feisty first half at the Stadium of Light. Valon Behrami is top dog on 6.90 - although rater users have proven to be unforgiving mistresses in the past and I shouldn't be at all surprised to see that score plummet after his extraordinary miss (see 1648). Off you go, unforgiving mistresses..." Sunderland v West Ham Player Rater
1650: Mike Dean feels the wrath of the Sunderland fans as he goes off, after denying the hosts a penalty. Strange old half that. Sunderland looked the better side, but West Ham should be 2-0 up.
1649: HALF-TIME Sunderland 0-1 West Ham
1648: Oh my word. Mistake by Anton Ferdinand lets in Craig Bellamy. The striker goes past the keeper but is left with an impossible angle - so he sets up Valon Behrami right in front of goal, but he clatters the bar under pressure from Ferdinand. Good recovery from Ferdinand - but Behrami should have scored his second.
1646: Lovely build-up from West Ham, rubbish finish. One-touch passing ends with Craig Bellamy feeding Lee Bowyer, who scuffs his shot.
1643: Danny Collins' angled shot is tipped over by Rob Green as Sunderland threaten again... five minutes to go until the break.
1640: Just to clear up that last incident, Collins' tussle with Cisse began outside the box - and ended in it. At the very least, it looked like a free-kick and with Cisse denied a clear scoring opportunity, it might have been red for Collins.
1636: Mike Dean is now the most unpopular man in Sunderland. Steed Malbranque slips the pass through for Djibril Cisse, who is barged off the ball by James Collins. "PENALTY," scream the home fans. "No," says Dean. Remarkable decision.
1636: Sustained pressure from Sunderland as they ping in cross after cross, but West Ham's defence stands firm...
1633: As the free-kick comes over, Kenwyne Jones is hauled to the ground by James Collins. Jones reckons it's a penalty, Mike Dean reckons it's a free-kick to West Ham.
1630: Mike Dean wins more fans among the home support as he books former Magpie Lee Bowyer for a terrible challenge on Andy Reid.
1629: Good work from ref Mike Dean. Dean Whitehead is fouled about 25 yards out but the ball falls to Andy Reid. Play on. Reid curls a measured shot onto the top of the crossbar. Not measured enough.
1628: "Spurs only nine points off fourth spot and the form team. Champions League here we come! Well I can dream can't I...?" Happy Spur, on the way home in the soaking rain, via text on 81111
1624: Sunderland have lost the plot for the moment. Phil Bardsley gets a yellow for clattering Valon Behrami on the left. The hosts just about scramble the free-kick clear.
1623: Djibril Cisse has an immediate chance to equalise, but plants a free header disastrously wide. Wasteful.
1622: GOAL Sunderland 0-1 West Ham The free-kick is cleared to Valon Behrami whose fierce shot deflects off Kenwyne Jones' foot and in. Bit fortunate that.
1621: Andy Reid dives in on Lucas Neill very rashly, giving away a free-kick and earning a yellow card to boot.
1620: End to end stuff. Kenwyne Jones' shot from the edge of the box is blocked by the defender, before Carlton Cole has a very similar effort - also blocked.
1618: Craig Bellamy gets plenty of boos from the home fans as he comes over to take a corner for West Ham. Decent delivery, but Sunderland clear.
1617: That's a bit better from West Ham. Craig Bellamy runs on to a clever free-kick down the left and crosses to the far post - but Danny Collins clears.
1613: Andy Reid delivers another devilish cross from the left and this time he does find Djibril Cisse - but the striker heads over. Sunderland looking dangerous...
1612: Andy Reid whips in a dangerous cross from the left which keeper Rob Green does well to punch clear with Djibril Cisse lurking.
1610: Not a lot going on here, so I'll dig out another stat. West Ham have not kept back-to-back clean sheets since September 2007.
1609: Djibril Cisse collects the ball on the right and waits for support - but he has to settle for a throw-in as the defender blocks his attempted pass.
1603: Making up for the earlier hair-related disappointment involving Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Djibril Cisse has dyed his mohawk red. It looks as ridiculous as you would imagine.
1602: And we're up and away at the Stadium of Light.
1601: Here comes Roy 'The Beard' Keane, who exchanges a warm handshake with Ickle Gianfranco Zola before heading to the dug-out.
1559: "The two things Zola promised us was attacking football and the youth given chances. Why then has he dropped two youngsters with all the potential in the world to fit that donkey bowyer in a 4-5-1?" Anon via text on 81111
1557: Anton Ferdinand shakes hands with his former team-mates as the players wait to come out. At the same time, the defender tries to tear off the top of his water bottle with his teeth - with disastrous consequences. He has water dribbling all down his chin now. That'll learn 'im.
1554: "Re 1546: Get him on a plane to Blackburn... Can't do any worse!" Anon via text on 81111
1552: "Re 1546: Since he left Charlton they have gone from top half of the PL to relegation zone in the Championship. So, yes, I guess he must be a very good manager." The Midland 20 on 606 Join the debate on 606
1550: The last six league meetings between these two have seen two wins apiece and two draws. Something's got to give... or it might be a draw.
1546: Since Alan Curbishley walked out in a huff over the departures of George McCartney and Anton Ferdinand to Sunderland, West Ham have tumbled from fourth to 14th. Is Curbs some sort of managerial genius? Or what?
1541: BBC Sport's Mark Mitchener would like me to tell you the one-day cricket match between India and England has just started again. Live text - India v England
1537: FULL TEAMS Sunderland v West Ham Sunderland: Fulop, Bardsley, Nosworthy, Ferdinand, Collins, Malbranque, Whitehead, Reid, Richardson, Jones, Cisse. Subs: Colgan, Tainio, Edwards, Diouf, Murphy, Colback, Henderson. West Ham: Green, Neill, Collins, Upson, Ilunga, Faubert, Parker, Bowyer, Behrami, Bellamy, Cole. Subs: Lastuvka, Boa Morte, Mullins, Davenport, Collison, Di Michele, Sears.
1533: Aaaaaah. Everybody stop! It was someone else who told me Spurs were out of the bottom three for the first time since August. I now find out they escaped briefly a couple of weeks ago - while I was on holiday in America. Sorry, sorry, sorry.
1530: Look alert, Danny the Stat's in the house... "Er, well not a lot happened on the pitch in the second half, and not a lot happened on Player Rater either. Aaron Lennon stays top with 8.54 and Martin Olsson remains languishing on 3.85. Not much else to report, although repeating number fans everywhere will delight in Roman Pavlyuchenko's score of 7.77. Get involved..." Tottenham v Blackburn Player Rater
1525: Tottenham climb out of the bottom three. Heurelho Gomes is the hero of the hour as he milks the applause from the home fans after a rare clean sheet. Following the departure of the hapless Martin Olsson, Blackburn couldn't really put any sustained pressure on the Spurs keeper. Rovers keeper Paul Robinson - back at his old club for the first time since his summer departure - throws his gloves to the Tottenham fans.
1524: FULL-TIME Tottenham 1-0 Blackburn
1523: TEAM NEWS Sunderland v West Ham Sunderland make one change from the side that beat Blackburn, with Andy Reid replacing Teemu Tainio, while goalkeeper Craig Gordon is still missing. West Ham make two additions from the line-up that drew with Portsmouth, bringing in Lee Bowyer and Julien Faubert for youngsters Jack Collison and Freddie Sears.
1522: A floated free-kick is knocked down in the Tottenham box and Roque Santa Cruz instinctively backheels it. Heurelho Gomes is grasping thin air but he needn't worry - the ball goes well over.
1521: Into added time at the Lane.
1518: HANDBAGS! Jermaine Jenas reacts to a challenge by Keith Andrews - who then pulls up the Spurs man's shorts in old-school wedgie style. Boys eh? That all prompts a bit of pushing and shoving, and as the referee comes in to sort it all out, Andrews walks away very quickly. He is eventually called back as both he and Jenas see yellow.
1517: Blackburn have done absolutely nothing going forward in this second half - but still Spurs can't kill them off. David Bentley comes off to be replaced by Jamie O'Hara.
1516: Jermaine Jenas thinks about shooting but instead passes out wide to David Bentley, who delivers the perfect cross for Fraizer Campbell - who heads wide from close range. A poor miss.
1513: A final change from Blackburn sees Keith Treacy coming on for Morten Gamst Pedersen.
1512: "Caroline, I need some kind of incentive to start this Kestrel For A Knave coursework, which is due tomorrow, and I keep getting distracted by the football. Please tell them all to wait for a few hours, and then ask any English teachers among the Spurs fans to come here. Thank you." AfterDeath on 606 My pleasure. I was only saying to someone the other day: why do we still have books when we've got telly now?
1509: Blackburn give the ball away to Jermaine Jenas, who is in plenty of space on the right. He runs to the edge of the box and then loses the ball. Oh.
1508: Vedran Corluka's low shot is going acres wide - so he's a bit fortunate to see Christopher Samba stick a leg out and deflect it behind for a corner... which is cleared by Blackburn.
1505: A warm round of applause from the home fans for Roman Pavlyuchenko as the goalscorer comes off to be replaced by Fraizer Campbell.
1505: "Anyone else fearful that our dominance not translating into a second goal may cost us?" Chad Guevara on 606 Join the debate on 606
1502: Paul Ince makes his second change of the afternoon, replacing Brett Emerton with striker Matt Derbyshire.
1500: He is no longer drinking in that last-chance saloon. Andre Ooijer is in the book for yet another foul on David Bentley. Bentley's free-kick from the left defeats Paul Robinson, but not the Blackburn defender.
1457: Tom Huddlestone provides a brilliant crossfield pass for Aaron Lennon, but Paul Robinson is equal to the cross. Someone just texted in saying Huddlestone is playing better than Steven Gerrard at the moment. But then, Gerrard is injured I suppose...
1454: David Bentley does some pointless ball juggling over on the left wing, before passing it back to Jermaine Jenas. Not been one of Bentley's greatest afternoons.
1452: Panic stations for Blackburn as Aaron Lennon gallops away down the right for the umpteenth time today. He attempts to find Roman Pavlyuchenko at the far post, but the Blackburn defender gets there first to head behind.
1450: Nice build-up play from Blackburn but then Morten Gamst Pedersen tries to beat the man instead of whipping in a quick cross. Heurelho Gomes collects.
1446: Christopher Samba is caught in possession by Darren Bent and the striker exchanges a quick one-two with David Bentley before going for the shot - but Andre Ooijer saves his side with a perfectly-timed challenge.
1444: Nice spell of play from Tottenham here, although they take a bit too long to get the cross in. The ball eventually comes out to Tom Huddlestone, whose piledriver is deflected over. Moments later, he sends an even better, swerving effort narrowly over the bar.
1441: Keith Andrews finds Brett Emerton in space on the right with a magnificent pass. Emerton's cross comes off Ledley King and hits the side netting. Spurs need a second goal to settle the nerves.
1438: "Alright Cheesy? I'm in the North Stand of WHL just mulling over that first half - I'm disappointed Spurs aren't further ahead, and we look really shaky at the back. I think Spurs will lose this - in the same fixture last season we were 1 up and Blackburn were down to 10, and you know the rest (we lost.)" Tom via text on 81111
1436: A change at half-time from Blackburn. Danny Simpson will play at left-back instead of the dearly departed Martin Olsson. He can't be any worse. Benni McCarthy makes way. Second half under way.
1435: "Best left winger at left back... Best right winger on left midfield... Best striker on right midfield... Paul Ince is a great manager... Superb tactics... Can you detect the sarcasm?" Anon via text on 81111 Nope, can't see it... oh wait...
1432: Interesting debate on 606: who do you play on the right for England? Theo Walcott, Shaun Wright-Phillips or Aaron Lennon? I say play all three, but I am a girl and still getting to grips with football. Join the debate on 606
1428: "Re 1419: I suppose Paddy complained when Olsson scored the winner against Everton in the cup and played a blinder. It's hardly his fault we've lost games this season and singling him out is silly. As for getting rid of Ince, how about letting the guy find his feet? We're as many points behind Arsenal as they are behind Chelsea. This is no ordinary Premier League season. Incey will come good." Matt, Blackburn, via text on 81111
1425: Look who it is. It's Danny the Stat... "You might expect the outstanding Aaron Lennon to be leading Player Rater - and sent-off Martin Olsson to be struggling. You - whoever you are - would be darn tooting right as well. Lennon has a credibility-busting 8.41, while Olsson is on a lowly 3.18. I doubt that'll go up too much either, unless he uses his now-free second-half to log on and rate himself a '10'. You, like Martin, can get involved too..." Tottenham v Blackburn Player Rater
1423: "40 years since The Beatles released The White Album, the afternoon naturally belongs to Lennon." Paul in Gatley, via text on 81111
1421: HALF-TIME Tottenham 1-0 Blackburn
1421: Wee bit of controversy. David Bentley nicks the ball past Aaron Mokoena on the edge of the box and goes down under the challenge. With everyone expecting a free-kick, Howard Webb books the Spurs man for diving. Bentley may have been a bit over-dramatic - but there was definite contact.
1419: "Why does Ince persist in playing Olsson? He's a little boy! He gets ragged every week and he's cost us another match here. Ince has got to go." Paddy, Blackburn fan, via text on 81111
1417: A free-kick for Blackburn now, allowing Morten Gamst Pedersen to have a pop. He beats the wall but not the defender behind.
1413: From the free-kick, Aaron Lennon - who is on fire this afternoon - lashes in a shot which takes a deflection before coming off Paul Robinson's leg.
1412: RED CARD Blackburn Referee Howard Webb puts Martin Olsson out of his misery. The Blackburn defender - who gave the ball away in the lead-up to Tottenham's goal - clips Aaron Lennon's heels as the winger latches onto a return ball on the right and it's a second yellow for the Swede.
1409: "I wonder what Christopher Samba would be like in Strictly Come Dancing?" ponders BBC 5 Live analyst David Pleat. I imagine Pleat is the only man in the world pondering that right now.
1407: Jermaine Jenas muscles his way to the edge of the area where he collides with Christopher Samba. No free-kick though. Spurs win the ball back and this time Aaron Lennon attacks from the left, sending a shot wide of Paul Robinson's left-hand post.
1404: Great work from Heurelho Gomes. Yes indeed. Brett Emerton's free-kick from the left comes a long way through a crowd of players but the Brazilian keeper collects. Safe hands they'll call him.
1401: Aaron Mokoena gives the ball away, with Aaron Lennon racing onto it. Martin Olsson takes the flying winger down 35 yards out. Yellow card for Olsson, promising free-kick for Spurs... which David Bentley puts into the wall.
1357: Blackburn's best chance so far... Benni McCarthy volleys over from six yards out.
1356: Andre Ooijer makes it a hat-trick of fouls on David Bentley - and he gets a stern talking-to from Howard Webb. No booking, but he must be drinking in yellow card's last-chance saloon now.
1352: Heurelho Gomes comes charging out to clear the ball from the feet of Brett Emerton... and gets nowhere near it. Emerton's chip is headed clear by Jonathan Woodgate.
1351: Andre Ooijer gives away another free-kick with another foul on David Bentley. Good little ding-dong that. Bentley takes the kick, Roman Pavlyuchenko heads against the foot of the post, with Ledley King's follow-up is blocked. Huge scare for Blackburn.
1347: "Pavlyuchenko - Terrible first touch, no technique, no pace... BUT BOY CAN HE FINISH WITH HIS HEAD OR WITH HIS FEET!" No, thats just my nickname on 606 Join the debate on 606
1345: If Heurelho Gomes was not in goal for Tottenham, you would expect Spurs to go on to win this. But he is, so I'm not so sure.
1342: GOAL Tottenham 1-0 Blackburn Martin Olsson is caught in possession - and Aaron Lennon is away, motoring down the right before cutting into the box and providing the pass for Roman Pavlyuchenko to hammer in his third Premier League goal.
1341: Massive cheer from the Spurs fans as Heurelho Gomes collects a speculative shot - after fumbling it obviously.
1339: Uh-oh. Blackburn's first corner and Heurelho Gomes goes to catch it, drops it and is fortunate a Spurs defender is on hand to smack it behind. Hardly a confidence booster.
1337: Andre Ooijer says hello to former team-mate David Bentley with a lovely hug by the touchline as the Spurs winger tries to get on the end of a return pass. Free-kick to Tottenham.
1334: That's not something you see every day: a decent cross from Aaron Lennon. Ooooh, catty. No one on the end of it though.
1333: We're up and away. First disappointment of the day. Benoit Assou-Ekotto has braided his hair. He had a tremendous afro in midweek, with a white streak down one side.
1328: Dramatic music as the players trot out at White Hart Lane. Howard Webb is our man in the middle today and one of his assistants is called Mike Mullarkey. Ha ha ha ha ha. I am bullet-proof when it comes to laughing at people's surnames. Bullet-proof I tell you.
1325: "Re 1316: Cesar's not bad, Champions League winner, started the game for Real at Hampden, he did get taken off though due to injury." Ian, work is too busy, boo, via text on 81111
1323: I'm looking forward to seeing Benoit Assou-Ekotto today. I think he may have an entertaining barnet...
1320: "It's important we get out that bottom three as quick as we can. We'll find out if Bent and Pavlyuchenko can form a partnership today." Spurs boss Harry Redknapp
1316: Stu from Glasgow makes an interesting point: just how bad can Spurs' reserve keeper Cesar Sanchez be if he can't displace Heurelho Gomes? Anyone ever seen him play?
1315: Plenty of Blackburn fans on 606 and via text are pleased to see the return of the Benni and Roque show up front for Rovers. Not sure Heurelho Gomes will be so happy....

1310: "Can't wait for the entertainment to start - Gomes is the John Sergeant of the Premier League, everyone except Spurs fans want him to stay on the show!" Ken T via text on 81111 Harsh but...
1309: TEAM NEWS Tottenham v Blackburn Tottenham draft in Roman Pavlyuchenko in the absence of the injured Luka Modric, while Benoit Assou-Ekotto replaces Gareth Bale and Aaron Lennon comes in for Didier Zokora. Blackburn recall Benni McCarthy, while Brett Emerton returns after injury and Ryan Nelsen replaces Zurab Khizanishvili.
1308: "Watching today's games from Australia. My friend in England says she'll send me a topless shot of herself if West Ham win at Sunderland today... I'm not holding my breath, but 'go the Hammers' anyway." kamagloire on 606 Join the debate on 606

1257: After its astonishingly successful debut* yesterday, Stat of the Day (sponsored by Danny) returns. Here we are: Blackburn have picked up the most yellow cards in the Premier League this season, while Tottenham are joint top on reds.
* This statement has been subject to slight exaggeration
1253: "Afternoon Cheese. I'm going to my first ever Premier League game at Spurs today. Hoping for an entertaining Spurs win (and no more snow). Can you please give a shout out to Dan and Gary to say thanks for ticket? Cheers." Joe via text on 81111 A shout-out? This isn't Radio 1, Joe... but since you asked nicely
1251: "Please, please, please let Rovers win today, and also make Bentley have a shocker. Not too much to ask is it?" Hannah via text on 81111
1249: "Re 1230: Robinho and Glen Johnson vied for goal of the day?! There was only one winner, Johnson's strike was a cracker!" Anon via text on 81111 Bit of a hit and hope though wouldn't you say?!
1246: First up today then, Tottenham host Blackburn with both sides hoping to climb out of the bottom three. Paul Robinson has a chance to show his old club what they're missing - especially with everyone's favourite comedy keeper Heurelho Gomes guarding the opposite net. Four of the Brazilian's mistakes have led to goals this season - one fifth of the total Spurs have conceded. Yet he is the only Spurs player to have played every minute of every league match this season.
1243: "It's my birthday today. I want Blackburn to deliver me a lovely present. And I'd LOVE Matt Jansen back in the team. Him and Billy McKinley are my favourite players. I feel a five-goal thriller today with Blackburn just edging it. Matt via text on 81111
1236: Slight dusting of snow in the Cheese garden this morning, nothing much to get excited about, so I'm very keen to hear of any more dramatic weather stories� More importantly, will we get to see the orange ball today? We can only hope. WEATHER UPDATE - frankly, I'm surprised we made it through the night
1230: The top five did not score yesterday. Nine of the top 10 did not win, the other one did not play. Robinho and Glen Johnson, yes Glen Johnson, vied for goal of the day. I think I'm falling in love with Premier League 2008/09.
