Hurrah! It's Mid-week Footie Time!
As another winter storm is mounting its offensive, there's a full docket of footie on this afternoon to lift the gloom. To start with, there are four Premiership battles, including United at the Hawthorns. "That Damned United" are at home to the Shrimpers. I'll be around for the first half before I have to run off to my afternoon class.Join me if you've got the time...

My predictions for tonight's matches:
Sunderland 1 Fulham 0
WBA 0 United 3
Pompey 1 Villa 2
Spurs 1 Stoke 0
Apparently the United match has been delayed until 8:15 due to crowd congestion outside of the ground.
All of the matches bar the WBA-United mentioned earlier have kicked off. Still searching for some working links.
Hurrah! Leeds have jumped out to the 2-0 lead over Southend with goals from our Portuguese defender Rui Marques and Richard Naylor, who I have to admit I've never heard of. Bless him, in any case.
That gets us a wee bit closer to Peterboro in sixth who have fallen behind to an early Crewe goal.
No goals yet in the Prem.
Leeds old boy Aaron Lennon is in spanking form these days and he's sent Spurs into a 1-0 lead over Stoke.
Hey, Gator B, can't hang around, but good luck today against the Shrimpers. I have yoru disc in now and am bopping along while I work away the day. Valerie Plame, if that really is your name . ..
Finally got a link up for the United match on Justin.TV. Rio's back for the Red Devils. WBA are stretched to breaking point by injuries and suspensions. I reckon I've in good with the prediction.
Cheers, WHR. Glad you're loving the Decemberists - that tune had your name all over it. I wonder what Val makes of it?
United kick off almost twenty minutes late in the end.
The Dons are being pegged back by the Orient - it's 1-1 there.
League leaders Leicester still at 0-0 with Brighton. I'd love a Gulls result today.
Berbatov sends a low shot straight at West Brom keeper Scott Carson.
If I'm not mistaken that's the Arsenal boy Jay Simpson lining up for the WBA attack tonight. A loan deal perhaps?
Sadly, Val moved to Santa Fe with hubby and kids . . .
Roman Pavlyuchenko's neat through ball is easily fired into the back of the Stoke net by Jermain Defoe to send Tottenham 2-0 up. Looks like this could be a good night for Spurs.
Here's a turn-up. Emile Heskey runs on to Gabriel Agbonlahor's knock-on and sends a superb half-volley past David James from the edge of the Portsmouth box to bag his first goal for Aston Villa.
Santa Fe is a nice spot, by all accounts. Best of luck to her.
Luka Modric's cross from the left is turned home by a close-range header from Michael Dawson to give Tottenham a 3-0 advantage against Stoke. Not good fun for the Potters at the moment.
Crikey, Spurs are having a field day!
Sheffield Wednesday striker Francis Jeffers has been dismissed for violent conduct. His side are drawing 1-1 with Nottingham Forest.
I am watching United through ATDHE but there is no sound for some reason
A quarter of an hour gone and United are still at 0-0 with the Baggies.
Welcome, Davey! This one's working well:

Wow, Leeds are two up!
Cheers,
Ron just shanks one horribly!!
The link only has a picture of a ball
Half-time at the Stadium of Light. Sunderland are drawing 0-0 with Fulham.
Yes, indeed. This would be three wins in three if we can hold on.
Found the match
Bloody hell, there is no sound here too
Better still, the other results are mostly going in our favor. Leicester, Millwall and the Dons all drawing, Oldham behind to Scunthorpe and Peterboro still 0-1 down to Crewe.
Pull your finger out, Davey!
Heskey scored for Pompey. Quite a debut
VDS will break Petr Cech's record of clean sheets if he can stop them today.
I have two links and there is no sound on either. I tried another link and that had sound
YES!!!!!!!
Berbatov!!!
Villa, you mean, right?
Great pass by Carrick again
Uh oh, I lost my link. Well done, Dimitar. He's in sharp form these days.
yup, Villa
COME ON, ELEVEN IN A ROW
Do you have sound?
Half time at the Elland - 2-0 for the boys. More of the same in the second half please, lads.
I've got visual but no audio now.
ooh, Ron sets up Tev and he hits it just wide!
Tottenham midfielder David Bentley has been booked and he will now miss his side's derby clash with Arsenal.
Ags misses a good chance for Villa
I've got 100% on the predictions right now - up 50 or 60 points. Lovely jubbly.
By the way, be careful clicking on the links on Justin.TV. I clicked on one and it pulled up porn last week. Definitely NSFW. If the Dean is monitoring our use here, I'm for it!
Gabby Ag just missed another easy chance.
I'm off to my class, mate - cheerio!
Take care. I am off soon too
Ron misses a one on one!
I have gone to the Veetle website and are using the Desporta link and it has sound!!!!
West Brom down to ten men
I don't think that it was a sending off. He did take off a little but not much
Sunderland take the lead against Fulham
Carson drops a cross and it drops at Tevez's feet
GOAL!!!!!!!!!
2-0
MORE PLEASE
Everyone at the Hawthorns is very upset. The sending off was a little questionable. As for the goal, there was never a foul on Carson. He just dropped it!
I want the half to come. I don't want the Ref to send of a United player to even it up
Half time
The guy has changed the channel to a music channel. He better change it back

I have my no sound link back at the match. My sound link has FINALLY changed back from music
Just noticed that Rio is back
Forest take the lead against Wednesday
Pompey are getting some chances!
Free kick chance for Brom inside the D...hits it over
May the clean sheet continue
Sotton have come from two goal behind to tie it up at Carrow Road
Great pass in from Carrick and knocked in by Berbatov but is offside
On the TV, Pompey deserve something from this

Park in the book for a tackle
Leeds still two up
Leeds match is over... three points for Bob and his lot

Leicester held by Birstols.. that's not a result, it's just a bit of gossip!
Leicester held by Brighton

GIGGS SETS UP RON!!! He looks a happy chappy for getting that tap in
Sunderland have beaten Fulham
They are up to 11
As for United, just keep the clean sheet. 24 minutes to go
I am please that Berb, Tev and Ron have all scored.
Carrick almost gets United's fifth.
I would like Giggs to score. I am not sure if he has a league goal yet
Rio takes a rest as Wes Brown comes on. Scholes look a like comes on for Nev
Great attack by United. The fans think Ron and Berbatov is offside but neither are.
RONALDO!!!

United's goal machine has finally started to hum
PLEASE CONTINUE!
Still 18 minutes to go
Tosic coming on for Berbatov
Well done Dimi
Into injury time at Fratton Park
Spurs win 3-1
Villa complete their one nil win
I think every WBA player is being booked
Five minutes from 11 clean sheets in a row.. COME ON
Tevez almost scores again. Great save by Carson
All of Bob's prediction we correct. He even had one perfect score. Don't blow it tomorrow
Pick Wigan, Blackburn, Boro, Everton, Citeh and Hull please
Two added minutes left at the Hawthorns
Free kick chance again just outside the D. A foul by Carrick.
Last chance, could be the last kick of the game... well over!!!
THAT IS IT!!!
FIVE NIL TO UNITED!!!!!!!
Three points ahead at the top,
Seven goals ahead of Costa
Tied with Chelski with goals
ELEVEN CLEAN SHEETS IN A ROW
I am off to the college a happy chappy.
I will be around tomorrow during another snowstorm
Take care
Dave
Right you are, lad. A spectacular day for Leeds and my predictions league status. I picked up a grand total of 95 points off the four matches and am currently joint second in the Ronaldo the Slave league.
