Summary
It’s not getting any better for Man United, is it? After Liverpool beat them handily at Anfield we yet again wonder what the hell is going on there, ponder how Arsenal will respond to their first defeat in ages, and sit in shock as Marcus says some very rude things about Everton.
Elsewhere we ponder the magical qualities of good old Neil Warnock, have a surprising update regarding the Bart-Williams family and revel in Big Sol Campbell picking up his first win with Macclesfield.
