"I'm a changed man" - borrowing a trick from Balotelli and doubtless earning himself an unnecessary booking in the progress? Aye righto. Owls fan on 606 was impressed with him and hopeful that they'd get him on a permanent deal, we can only hope the club feel the same.

Flat track bully tbh.

This late kick off has one advantage; 606 full of rabid bin dippers frothing at the mouth to listen to as I drive to work.

Desperate to shoe horn in as much intrigue as they can. As you say, spot on by the ref but how often do they get these wrong? It is proper shit that goal line technology doesn't exist tbf. I remember someone commentating on a game at SJP when a ball bounced down off the bar, who said "before too long there'll be a chip in the ball and when it goes over the line a light or alarm will go off and that will be that". Which game? Romania vs France, Euro 96!

He uttered the fantastically original observation that Carroll has "a good touch for a big man" earlier.

Slow mo replay of Cech shaking his head and wagging his finger as the tramp celebrates. Outstanding save, I thought it was a goal real time.

Lovely finish. Howay Chelsea, get Torres on!

Yeah someone mentioned it in the other thread a few days ago. Some classic chayton behind-the-curve posting this week Craig, heard any jokes lately?

One of my consultants last year wouldn't let me ventilate a patient with an inspiratory pressure of 13cm of water, I've picked this up and I'm not superstitious about 13 at all - my birthday is on the 13th after all.

I was just thinking that too.

On Sky on Wednesday they flashed up the bottom of the table with Blackburn, Bolton and QPR's run ins underneath. Now I know Wolves are down and space might have been tight for the graphic but removing them the table altogether (it only went down to 19) was a bit harsh. Typical Sky, once you leave their magical Premiership you cease to exist!

Reina could have done better too. Good, I hate him.

Saw a nice feature on him on Sky this week about how he gives all his bonus money from clean sheets and penno saves to Help for Heroes. Akin to me giving a fiver every time I shag a supermodel like but it's the thought that counts.

Aye me too Pud, just got up. Come on Chelsea, murder em.

My cousins live in Norwich, so you can all thank me for this IF they win*. *Blame will not be accepted if they don't.

Oh and doing epidurals for women younger than my little brother.

Teaching the club I started at when I came to university nine years ago, and therefore spending two evenings a week with 18 and 19 year olds. Frigging babies.

Was idly wondering if I really care who wins the FA cup, ten seconds of listening to Phil Thompson has settled that, hope Chelsea rape them senseless. Howay Norwich (why isn't it on TV?!)

It really depends on what is causing the arrhythmia. Btw confusingly, what the Belgian/Muamba had is not a 'heart attack' - which is part of your heart muscle dying from lack of oxygen due to a blockage in the artery that supplies it. They had a cardiac arrest - literally, their heart stopped beating. A heart attack is a common cause of cardiac arrests - but not in young fit athletes.

Certainly not always, read my last paragraph.

Lad on the podcast is a genuine bin dipper

Well Liverpool fans are debating it (the wall pusher on the Guardian football podcast for one). I agree with you though.

Let's just hope Shola doesn't get ideas and start wellying it into the stands every time we bring him on to run the clock down.

Agreed. Plus Chelsea and Liverpool play each other next week anyway! The CL money has really taken the shine of the cup, so much so that even if Liverpool win this evening (ffs) it's debatable if they or us have had a better season.

Your heart is essentially a bag of muscle. Like all muscles, it contracts in response to electrical activity from nerves. In health this is very tightly coordinated by electrical impulses in a particular rhythm. When your heart stops contracting/pumping/beating it is because this electrical activity becomes uncoordinated (an arrhythmia) for some reason. Most commonly this is due to lack of oxygen to the heart muscle due to a blockage in the arteries that supply it (in Medicine known as a myocardial infarction, or to everyone else, a heart attack). This will probably not have been the case with Muamba - I've not read what exactly the cause if his cardiac arrest, it will probably have been a congenital structural abnormality with his heart muscle or electrical conducting system, I suspect probably the latter. Regardless, if that problem is not sorted, then the heart remains at risk of going into an arrhythmia and cardiac arrest again - I've seen a patient whose implantable defibrillator went off fifteen times in the space of an hour. The longer this problem persists the worse the potential consequences are. Also, not all arrhythmias causing cardiac arrest respond to defibrillation either...
