Needophilia.
Desparate tinpot fixtures galore in the Prem on Saturday- lot of goals promised, lack of quality guaranteed. A so-far disappointing West Brom side will be looking to heap further misery on the apparently unassailable Steve Kean. A rampant Chelsea should slaughter a hopeless Wigan side. Stoke played the rezzies in Europe but Wolves will still be hoping to take advantage of their opponents' continental lethargy. Six pointer in the form of Bolton Fulham.
More important matters transpire on Sunday. With discontent rife in the QPR camp and with Warnock's men yet to register a win at home (a deeply unconvincing win against Chelsea aside), you'd expect United to record a comfortable win there irritable bowel syndrome or no irritable bowel syndrome. The car-smashing O'Neill factor travels to league's form side Spurs- the latter should cunt all over Sunderland, and I very much hope they do. Goals galore to be expected at the last kick off as two injury-riven and desparate-looking defences meet the two best attacks in the league. You'd expect City to win but stranger things have happened, particularly given how this fixture last season went down.
Elsewhere there's the south coast derby in the Championship, and Neymar struts his stuff against Messi and co on Sunday.
