All things must pass......

So the weekends form soon passed!
Sunderland could have won last night had Howard Webb noticed Robert Huth decide to audition for a 6 Nations role this weekend and carry the ball past Darren Bent in the area.
As for the derby oop north, I've briefly read the match report and it doesn't sound like there was ever any danger of it being a goal fest, sounded pretty grim to be honest.
Tonight's televised F.A Cup replay between Crystal Palace and Wolves has, suprisingly to me, been priced up by bookies with the home side as favourites.
A cup run would probably suit Palace more than Wolverhampton, with their current financial needs and Wolves are more focused on staying up. It doesn't always play out that way though does it?

A Premier League fixture tonight between Chelsea, fighting for the title and Hull City, fighting for Premiership survival.
The last 6 meetings between these sides, at Hull, average 3.5 goals per game.
The last 4 meetings have finished a combined total of Hull City 1- 15 Chelsea.

One other pick taken form one of the two Championship games tonight.
ENGLISH CHAMPIONSHIP SOCCER PRESTON N.E v Barnsley (7:45p.m k.o)10/11 W.HILL 10/11 BETFRED 10/11 TOTESPORT
Barnsley, after an upturn in form after a dreadful start to their season, have just seen their form begin to plateau, losing their last 3 away from home.
Preston, after a change of manager, have shown little improvement, but from what I had seen previously only needed a goalscorer. Having secured the talents of Danny Wellbeck from Manchester United till the end of the season, he has already netted within two games of arriving and I can see him performing well in this division for the remainder of the campaign.
So as a show of confidence in my own ratings of players,
ENGLISH CHAMPIONSHIP SOCCER DANNY WELLBECK TO SCORE ANYTIME v Barnsley (7:45p.m k.o)
