On a side note, United are an absolutely cracking price at 14/5 to make the top 4. 6 points off 4th despite being without their best 3 players for much of the season, with their hardest fixture of the second half out of the way and Mata, Rooney and VP to come back into the side

They've cut this to 13/5, still 11/4 in places though

They've been matched at 1.06 to €950 on Betfair

Everton get arsenal

Southampton get someone like Charlton at home.

Could be worse for Southampton, away to Sunderland but 2 of Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal & Liverpool are brown bread

The market is really becoming more & more informative in racing

I've lost count of how many horses look to have solid chances, are backed in the morning then drift violently at the off and run stinkers. Boston Bob yet another case today

Not in the case of RVP. It's well known that Moyes pushed him particularly hard in pre-season training, flogged him early on before he got injured then rushed him back leaving him on for a full game when by his own admission (in interview afterwards) he shouldn't have, in the Newcastle defeat. He hasn't kicked a ball since. RVP needs to be looked after. Moyes and his coaching staff haven't done so.

100% correct but will add that RVP had strong words with Moyes backroom staff calling them"amateurs"

Where's Mata going to play is the question though. And can Moyes be trusted to get both RVP and Rooney together on the pitch for any length of time? Midfield and defence will still be woeful and leak goals against the poorest teams. RVP/Rooney/Mata may save us if they click but way too many maybes for my liking. I'd steer clear.

You correctly asked a question "where is he going to play"and who is going to give him the ball.I also here but this not confirmed by my man Luke Shaw could well be joining Utd and a midfielder from the German league ,dont have a name.Told Moyes has been handed 150m to buy[if he does not buy his head is on the block] as Europa League is not an option after 250m wiped off share list in Wall Street and Glazers need Utd to leverage.

Injuries are just bad luck, nothing to do with the manager. I'd steer clear to if it was priced right at 2/1. Its not though

The wanker that is Rooney has just got a five year contract and 300k per week wages + 50k for every round Utd qualify in Europe regardless if he is injured.As a Utd follower for a very long time this is sickening in the extreme.My problem with this is Utd ,Liverpool and Arsenal and funded by the supporters and do not have an oil sugar daddy to offset against an unprofitable oil rig.

You could give this a go, I use it if Internet Download Manager does not work

http://wmrecorder.com/products/wm-capture

It allows you to put a window around a video and record the window so all the inbuilt download blockers in the world will not stop it. The only thing is this method must have continuous video without streaming pauses of this will be recorded too.

Thanks for the heads up convert!

I haven't done it but I worked down there on the plant expansion for 16 months and saw most of the old distillery. Will be going to do the tour this summer as what I saw was very interesting even without a tour guide.

It's just a pity that (as far as I knew when I was there) the new still house isn't open to tourists as it's a really impressive sight with the largest pit stills in the world. Google 'new Midleton still house' for a look.

Delighted to hear our great leader, Enda, at Davos, speaking to the worlds business leaders, and not refer to his fellow citizens on this visit as being "mad" people, as in lunatics, like he did on his last visit.

He's learning, slowly, but learning.
